Did you notice that about 7% of F.R.I.E.N.D.S jokes are hard to get? Especially if you are from a different country, like me. I've started this joke-research when I was learning English at home. I loved getting nerdy with all the cultural references here. The goal of this blog is to help you laugh with confidence at every joke our English speaking friends make. Explore the blog posts via tags and share your perspective on the jokes! Katia

ReplyDeleteThis was a reference to Cheech Marin, an American comedian and actor, who gained recognition in the Cheech and Chong "stoner" movies in the 1980's.
Where "Stoner movies" according to Wiki:
are a subgenre of films that revolve around the use of marijuana. Typically, such movies show cannabis use in a comic and positive fashion. Cannabis use is one of the main themes, and inspires most of the plot.
and by the way, cheech is an another name for weed
