A guy figured out exactly how much coffee the Friends cast drank

Legend.

Sometimes we miss Friends so much it hurts, we know the TV show will be syndicated forever but it's just not the same. To help us through this emotional turmoil, every now and then a piece of Friends trivia pops up that we just can't quite believe. We all know the Friends loved to hang out at Central Perk, it was RARE that a cup of coffee was not in one or all of their hands. Well, Kit Lovelace took it upon himself to not only figure out the amount of coffee that the Friends got through over the 236 episodes (1154 cups), he also determined which cast member drank the most coffee, and how much it all cost. WHAT!?! Some would say that he has too much time on his hands. We just think he's a complete legend;

Digging through old stuff, just found my results from the time I went through all 236 episodes of Friends to see how much coffee they drank. pic.twitter.com/4Kg7QO0mA6

Moreover, I then went ahead and broke it down season by season to see how their habits developed and changed over time... pic.twitter.com/IoJ1lDNnpv

Because Monica gets a bill in the episode The One With Five Steaks And An Eggplant, we know that one coffee and one scone comes to $4.12.

It's not unreasonable to assume therefore that a coffee is ~$1.50. That being so, including tips, I also worked out how much they spent... pic.twitter.com/2G9xSbqv7c

This works out at roughly $1.46 per character, per episode. Roughly the price of a single Pret filter coffee (before we tanked the pound...)

(FYI: We know they leave 20% tips because in the episode The One With Unagi Joey questions the amount left and Chandler confirms it as 20%.)

via GIPHY And just as we've picked up our jaws from the floor this guy comes along to ruin everything;

I feel like you know your stuff, but Phoebe might have been drinking herbal tea all that time.
