No one was safe from her burns.

Phoebe Buffay, portrayed by Lisa Kudrow, was not only the funniest character on Friends, with her eccentric views on life, but also undoubtedly the cruelest.

It's likely that she didn't really mean to offend any of her friends, but more often than not, the way she formed her opinions was just a little too harsh for others to take.

What's good for the viewers, however, is that it made her even more entertaining to watch.

Here are the top 5 funniest Phoebe Buffay roasts that you would not be able to recover from in real life.

5. Making Rachel Cry

It goes without saying that Rachel Green doesn't really know anything about real people's problems. Although she learns to be more independent over the seasons, Phoebe just doesn't see her problems as being nearly as hard as her past growing up on the streets.

Fair enough, but meeting your friend's tears with "here come the waterworks" was a little unnecessary.

4. Prison Talk

We all know that Phoebe tries to be very gentle and sensitive... as long as she has the patience. When she loses it and sees both Monica and Rachel physically fighting, she goes into full power mode and grabs them by the ears to remind them who's really the strongest.

3. Monica's Restaurant Portions

Everyone was excited for Monica to make her dreams come true and open her own restaurant. However, Monica wasn't as supportive of Phoebe's music career when she started playing outside of it.

The conflict ended with a hilarious rant about the tiny portions of pretentious food Monica served.

2. Ross and his divorces

Phoebe never misses an opportunity to roast Ross' love life, especially his failed marriages. Although she's not the only one to do this, her roasts are certainly the most brutal of the group.

She even goes so far as to call out his love for a good divorce right after Ross and Rachel got married!

1. Rachel's Pregnancy

Although Rachel's pregnancy was a happy news for everyone, Phoebe could not miss the chance to call her out on it at the Halloween party.

Right after Rachel gives the pretty ballerina girl all the candy after telling her "I love you," Phoebe gives her probably the most intense burn of the whole series.
