How funny are you on a scale of Gunther to Chandler? Perhaps he is not that great with advice, but Chandler can always provide you with some sarcasm... or maybe a cheesecake. Mathew Perry took the character of Chandler Bing and ran with it. He is, till date, the face of sarcasm thanks to his run on the show. Fans believe that no character in the entirety of the sitcom genre is as cleverly and wittily written as him. It is half luck and half skill. Reportedly, the undisputed king of sarcasm improvised most of his lines in season 3 and season 4 of this sitcom. On the occasion of Friends' 25th anniversary, we bring you the top ten sarcastic remarks by the King of Sarcasm. Here's a list of 10 times when Chandler's sarcasm was on-point.

     Chandler: "Well that's a little more relaxed than you wanted him to get."

3.  "Until I was 25, I thought that the only response to ‘I love you’ was ‘Oh, crap!’”

4.  Ross [on the phone]: "No, Homo habilis was erect. Australopithecus was never fully erect.''

     Chandler: "Well, maybe he was nervous."

5.  Ross: "I am gonna be happy this year. I am gonna make myself happy."

     Chandler: "Do you want us to leave the room?"

6.  Joey: "Whoa! Jam! I love jam! Hey, how come we never have jam at our place?"

     Chandler: "Because the kids need new shoes.''

 7.  Joey: "I kind of had a dream. (Pause) But I don't wanna talk about it."

      Chandler: "Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa! What if Martin Luther King had said that?"

8.  Phoebe: "I can’t believe two cows made the ultimate sacrifice so you guys could watch TV with your feet up."

     Chandler: "Well, they were chair-shaped cows. They never would have survived in the wild."

9.  Chandler: "Hey, anybody knows a good tailor?"

     Joey: "You need some clothes altered?"
