How can anyone hate Ross when you see moments like this? Well ... because people also see other moments.

I agree that it was unnecessary and insensitive of Monica to mention how good Richard was at slipping money. At least Chandler was trying AND he had planned such a special night. But a continuity error is that Chandler already knew that Richard used to do that with the money. He even taught him and Joey to do it!
Another continuity error is that there was literally a whole episode about how Chandler "can't cry" but he's about to cry when Ross gives Phoebe the bike.
Speaking of, I always found it weird how it didn't even cross their minds that Phoebe didn't know how to ride a bike she never had one! Yes, she could have borrowed and been taught using someone else's bike, but considering her childhood I find it very unlikely.
And I completely think Ross was in the wrong regarding the "we were on a break" thing and he was way too focused on technicality like Rachel said & not how much it hurt her, but he does get a lot of undeserved hate. He is a good friend and a good boyfriend when he is able to let go of his insecurities relating to Carol. Also, Ben hasn't been on the show that much but every time he is, he seems like a great father.
Fun facts/bloopers:
Cole Sprouse, who plays Ben, was a child star on Disney Channel along with his twin brother Dylan. They starred in the show The Suite Life of Zack and Cody and its spin-off The Suite Life on Deck, as well as the movie Big Daddy with Adam Sandler. Both brothers took a break from acting and went to college. Cole studied archaeology, and even though it's different from paleontology (paleontology is the study of fossils while archaeology is the study of human artifacts and remains), they're heavily connected and often work together. So I imagine Ross would be proud π€£ As an adult, Cole has starred in the show Riverdale and the movie Five Feet Apart.
The Armadillo costume idea was from one of the writers when he tried to rent a clown costume for his nephew's birthday and the costume store was out of them. He asked what else they had that was funny and the clerk showed him a giant armadillo costume.
When Ross is telling Ben that he has "One daddy and two mommies" you can see Ben mouthing Ross' lines. In the bloopers for the next episode, Cole Sprouse says he knows all of David's lines π€£ Unfortunately I can only find a video that also contains another blooper from a future episode (it's not much of a spoiler but still).
Also, in the blooper for the scene when Monica lists the names of men Rachel has slept with on the first date, Courteney Cox lists the names the show's creators: David Crane, Kevin Bright and Marta Kauffman.
Matt Le Blanc wasn't supposed to be in the Superman costume at the end. He didn't have time to change and came out in that outfit.
