I was watching the first episode of friends today, and one of the first, if not the first Chandler joke is asking of Monica's new boyfriend has "a HuMp? A hUmP anD a HaiRpecE?". The joke naturally went miles over my head so I figured it was a 90's reference I didnt get, after some brief research I have concluded that the hump and a hairpiece saying is not attributed to any outdated pop culture
