Happy birthday, Matthew Perry! 47 today and forever a month younger than the moon landing.

has taught us a lot: how to get a couch up a narrow stairwell, how to make a traditional English trifle. But most importantly: that we are not alone.

And we relate to no character more than Mr Chandler Bing, who basically always seems to be thinking exactly like us. So in celebration of Matthew Perry\'s birthday, here are just 15 times Chandler was all of us:

Forget the Justice League - what\'s the Justice Society?

We\'ve all yelled this at a significant other who doesn\'t want to be significant to us any more (though maybe not out loud). And then regretted it when we realised they were Janice-level annoying.

What do you want from us? If you want wisdom, speak to… actually, none of the Friends.

It\'s a coping mechanism, okay? Besides, when is there a better time to make jokes?

4. I gotta get to work. If I don\'t input those numbers…. Doesn\'t make much of a difference.

Obviously we exempt ourselves from this one, because we get to write things like this for a living, and that, by definition, is meaningful, valuable and serves a socially redeeming purpose.

5. Until I was 25, I thought that the only response to "I love you" was: "Oh, crap."

6. Sometimes I like to hold stuff like this and pretend I\'m a giant.

If you don\'t do this with miniature bottles, we just don\'t want to know you.

7. I\'m full, and yet I know if I stop eating this, I\'ll regret it.

The only correct response to cheesecake. And one that has gotten us into a lot of trouble in the past.

Which of us hasn\'t been stuck in a cashpoint lobby with a supermodel and got tongue-tied? Good-looking people make us all go weird, OKAY? It\'s all right, Chandler, we loathe ourselves too.

9. I tell people secrets. It makes them like me. 

10. Oh no, two women love me. They\'re both gorgeous and sexy. My wallet\'s too small for my fifties, AND MY DIAMOND SHOES ARE TOO TIGHT.

People just need to stop whining in our vicinity. Do they not know we have our 

Why does no-one ever listen to us? (By the way, the answer is evil, so watch out.)

13. It\'s always better to lie than to have the complicated discussion.

14. What must it be like not to be crippled by fear and self-loathing?

Well, it\'s like...It\'s er... Well. If anyone knows the answer, we\'d love to hear it.

15. Well, let me see… I believe I\'m… yes, falling asleep in front of the TV.

That\'s what a social life is, though, right? Going home to watch
