Ship Meme: Day 06

Question number 6 was pretty impossible - I ship so many couples and there are so many amazing kisses to choose from. But I did succeed in narrowing it down and have reached a decision...


Day 01: What is your current favourite ship?
Day 02: What was your very first ship?
Day 03: A pairing that needs to happen now?
Day 04: The pairing with the most chemistry?
Day 05: The pairing with the least chemistry?
Day 06: The best kiss?
Day 07: The most heartbreaking scene?
Day 08: The pairing with the most baggage?
Day 09: The most believable relationship?
Day 10: Why aren't these two married in real life?
Day 11: What is your dream pairing?
Day 12: Who had the best wedding?
Day 13: What is your favourite television pairing?
Day 14: What is your favourite book pairing?
Day 15: What is your favourite real life pairing?
Day 16: What is the absolute worst pairing?
Day 17: A pairing you thought would never work out, but did?
Day 18: What is the cutest pairing?
Day 19: A pairing you've rooted for since the beginning?
Day 20: The "can't stand the sexual tension anymore" pairing?
Day 21: A pairing you like and no one else understands why?
Day 22: A pairing you hate and no one else understands why?
Day 23: A crazy love triangle/quadrilateral that worked out great?
Day 24: A crazy love triangle/quadrilateral that worked out badly?
Day 25: A pairing that was/would-be adorable, but could never work out?
Day 26: A pairing that you hated and ended up loving?
Day 27: A pairing that you loved and ended up hating?
Day 28: A pairing that you will never understand?
Day 29: What ship had the best proposal?
Day 30: Your favourite ship forever and ever and ever?


Ross and Rachel's first kiss wins the prize. I'm sure a lot of people will have chosen this, but it genuinely is iconic. And this may be the single episode of television that I have watched most often - to this day it is the only one that I can quote entirely word for word. Friends was my second great TV show love, after Lois & Clark, and while I ultimately ended up being far more invested in Chandler and Monica than I did in Ross and Rachel, I was an absolutely hardcore shipper for those two for the first three or four seasons. I remember being completely blown away by this episode when it aired because this was before I really got into the internet in a big way so there were no spoilers - just anticipation week after week about what was going to happen. I'd waited for them to get together for what seemed like forever at this point, and I think it is really rare when something that you have been anticipating like that ends up being even better than you expected rather than a letdown. Just rewatching the YouTube clip of that scene right now, that kiss gave me butterflies all over again, so I think it deserves the top spot!

Oh, and this meme is now costing me money - I had to buy new user picture space to accommodate all of the ships I want to talk about! Apparently I'm incapable of deleting old icons to make way for new ones ;)
