Harsh-ed his buzz

Monica is upset that the stoned owner of the restaurant couldn't appreciate all the food-samples she cooked for him another night.

Monica: So I told him, "I'm sorry. That's how I feel." And he told me I harsh-ed his buzz.

What does the "harsh-ed his buzz" mean?

  1. According to the http://www.urbandictionary.com:

    Stoner (marijuana smoking) origin. When an incident occurs that causes one disappointment after a period of happiness or contentment. Akin to "bursting a bubble."

    Also: Harsh(es)(ed)(ing) my buzz
    I was really excited about my new play station, but when the power went out it totally harshed my buzz.

  2. Yes, that's right! Although 'harshed his buzz' is old 80s slang--from the southwest coast of America, I think (where marijuana usage was stereotypically higher)--which makes its appearance on the northeast coast in the 90s, spoken by a 40-year-old man, very strange.

How is Chandler's reference to Hymn 253: "His Eyes are on the Sparrow" funny? Ross and Rachel just broke up. Rachel invites guys to a free event she has tickets to. They reject the invitation, because Ross had them reserved for that same night earlier. Rachel says that it's not a big deal and leaves. Everyone is upset especially Chandler. He lights up a cigarette even though he wasn't smoking for a year already. Someone knocks on a door and Chandler says: Chandler: That's great. With my luck, that's him. Phoebe:  Him? Ross?
