4. Joey's Pin Number Is Also His Name

Warner Bros.

In the opening scene of season five's two-parter finale, "The One in Vegas," a gladiatorial Joey calls up Phoebe asking her to help retrieve the pin number to his ATM card, which he's forgotten.

As it turns out, Joey has scratched his pin onto the keys of the ATM machine by his apartment, causing Phoebe to immediately recognise him as "5639."

And that's seemingly where the joke ends, right? Except, Joey's laziness knows no bounds, as "5639" would also spell out "Joey" on any numerical keypad. Incredible.
