[MIMIC]

Of course

 

[Jeff Stephen]

Was this after eating dinner?

 

[Sesuadra]

Of course

 

[Maintenance]

Yes, I do. I even had a fight with a friend of mine when we argued the number of claps.

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

Do you even have to ask this, of course I fucking do. Do people not?

 

[BertramCooper]

Only if I just finished a meal.

 

[block tower]

nah

 

[-Kees-]

I do, but I'm an American so naturally I clap at everything.

 

[God Dayumm]

Are you american?

 

[jb1234]

I skip the theme song when watching the show (because it's terrible).

 

[John Kowalski]

OP are you an immigrant?

 

[kehs]

Could you BE any cliche with the clapping?

 

[ItIsOkBro]

I time the end of my meals to coincide with the Friends' clap.

 

[demon]

Right as I finished reading the OP my supervisor in the cubicle over started randomly clapping . True story.

'Murica

 

[Windam]

I skip the theme song when watching the show (because it's terrible).

...wat

 

[Welcome to you're "DOOM!"]

Of course I do, it's the law.

 

[jooso]

Did he also tip after every episode, even after the bad ones?

 

[crimzonflame]

My sister did this back in 95 while she was driving when the song was on the radio and we almost got into an accident. I hated the show ever since.

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

OP are you an immigrant?

We'll know after Obama's speech tonight.

 

[-COOLIO-]

that's adorable :]

 

[lightus]

I clap before, after and twice as much during. In fact, I'm clapping right now just thinking about it.

 

[Arthr2ShdsJcksn]

I only do this when I watch Friends in the movie theater.

 

[JBourne]

It's also customary to clap during the end credits. Clapping when a commercial break starts is optional, but always appreciated.

 

[terrisus]

I skip the theme song when watching the show (because it's terrible).

I skip watching the show (because it's terrible).


That said, do people regularly interact with shows?
Do you laugh for canned laughter too?

...wat

 

[ViviOggi]

No I'm from Europe

 

[BodiesWithoutOrgans]

OP are you an immigrant?

I'm Irish

 

[The Cowboy]

Meh, i do the wolf howl at the start of the Buffy Intro .

 

[thebeeks]

You gotta clap. Don't be one of those non-clappers!

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

There will never be Friends: The Movie.

[Clydefrog]

Back when Friends originally aired on Thursday nights on NBC’s Must See TV, you could stand outside any neighborhood and hear a collective *clap* *clap* *clap* *clap* at the right time. The sound it made was worthy of further applause.

I do the high-five for the Adventure Time intro.

 

[John Kowalski]

I'm Irish

That explains it! It's a genetic thing.

 

[isuzu]

of course

 

[HUELEN10]

Truthfully, not only have I never seen friends, but I have never met anyone that has clapped to its theme.

 

[Maintenance]

Truthfully, not only have I never seen friends, but I have never met anyone that has clapped to its theme.

I went to a retro nightclub two weeks ago and they played the theme from Friends...almost 90% of the people clapped.

PS: Not in the USA.

 

[ratcliffja]

I actually boo during the clapping parts.

 

[Inferno313]

Only americans do that

 

[Winterfang]

Well yeah.

 

[Aeana]

Of course I do, I'm an American.

 

[Cagey]

Truthfully, not only have I never seen friends, but I have never met anyone that has clapped to its theme.

You haven't missed a damn thing.

 

[Rentahamster]

Yes, I do. I even had a fight with a friend of mine when we argued the number of claps.

What side were you on?

 

[Zeppu]

I was going to ask whether this affliction was only exhibited by fat, stupid Americans, but then I remembered that was all of them.

 

[injurai]

i don't even like the show and I clap

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

What does your brother do?

 

[SofaKing]

 

[Version 3.0]

Have to!

I was going to ask whether this affliction was only exhibited by fat, lazy Americans, but then I remembered that was all of them.

I was going to come up with a scathing retort to this, but...eh.

 

[terrisus]

Yes, I do. I even had a fight with a friend of mine when we argued the number of claps.

Don't try to discuss Project M with him then.
