The 'How You Doin'?' catchphrase originates from the hit NBC sitcom Friends, specifically gaining legendary status during the show's middle seasons in the late 1990s. In this quintessential scene, Joey Tribbiani, played by Matt LeBlanc, demonstrates his foolproof pickup technique to Rachel Green, played by Jennifer Aniston. Joey delivers the line with a signature squint and a smooth, confident smirk that quickly became his most famous recurring gag. The clip captures the peak of Joey's 'charms' and the humorous dynamic between the two friends. In the world of internet memes, this clip is the gold standard for representing flirtation, confidence, or the moment someone tries to look attractive. It is frequently used to mock one's own attempts at being smooth or to highlight a reaction to something desirable. Whether used sincerely or ironically, it perfectly encapsulates the 'flirting mode' switch. Example captions include: 'Me when the waiter finally walks out with my food,' 'Trying to act natural when my crush looks my way,' and 'How I look at the last slice of pizza in the box.'
