The One With The Stripper - S8-E8
Continuity mistake: In this scene in Central Perk, Monica tells Chandler she has hired a stripper for him as she feels bad for not letting him have a bachelor party, and tells him to think of it as a 2 month anniversary present. However this episode is set 2 episodes after the Halloween episode, therefore allowing us to assume it is set sometime in November or later. Chandler and Monica got married in May, as stated several times in the show by the cast, therefore they have been married for around 6 months or more, not 2 months. (00:07:00)

Continuity mistake: When Mona is saying thanks to Ross for showing her his rock collection she puts her hair behind her ear, then when she's leaving she puts it behind again.
The One With The Rumor - S8-E9
Other mistake: Monica and Chandler's wedding is May 2001 (we are given the dates by the characters on the show, so it doesn't matter when the show aired.) And Rachel reveals at the wedding that she is pregnant, so that means she got pregnant in April or so of 2001. "The One With The Rumor" aired and is set to take place at Thanksgiving 2001, during which time Rachel should be 7 months pregnant. But her stomach's flat as a pancake. (00:01:15)

Continuity mistake: The gang confronts Ross over his affair with a fifty-year old librarian when he was younger. If you watch the mirror behind him (in one of the girls' rooms), it changes angles every time the camera cuts between Ross and the rest of the gang. (00:17:40)
The One With The Rumor - S8-E9
Continuity mistake: Right near the end of the episode when Joey comes in wearing the maternity pants, he pulls out the chair from the table twice. (00:21:20)
The One With Monica's Boots - S8-E10
Continuity mistake: In The One With Monica's Boots, Monica is removing her trainers and replacing them with her boots so it looks as if she was wearing her boots all along. In one shot her left jean leg is tucked into her boots, but when she stands up it is sitting perfectly. (00:07:25)

Visible crew/equipment: When Chandler is giving Monica a piggy-back, Monica sees her boots in tan in the store window. In the non-widescreen version, the cameraman can be seen in the reflection of the glass. This was fixed in the widescreen version. (00:17:45)

Visible crew/equipment: When Joey is talking to Bobby and Dina, lights and a boom mike can be seen at the top of the screen. (00:18:40)
Answer: Usually by the seventh night of Hanukkah you don't know what to get the other person, and you will probably resort to getting the other person something insignificant. Chandler is basically saying that the pen is a stupid gift.
