So everyone knows how annoying Michael is right. Well there's this new guy Andy who got dwight to quit, and he's also trying to cozy up to Michael.

Here's the hilarious part, Michael is annoyed by him. Looool. The irony is too delicious.

The Office is one of those shows I'm afraid to get into, because I've heard so much good about it I feel like it won't live up to my expectations and I'll just be disappointed.

It happened for me with Parks and Rec too.

I can see that. I love the show but if I hadn't seen it at this point then IDK if I'd want to try it.

I watched the first couple seasons and thought, "This is terrible, but early seasons of shows often do. I'll keep watching, it must get better." I literally watched the entire series waiting for it to get good, and it never did.

Yup Ryan is a douche. Has never made a sale, caused a fire, and he thinks he's better than everyone in the office. Michael may be annoying but I was rooting for him when he called out Ryan in front of the college class that Ryan was trying to embarrass him in.

I love The Office but three things I didn't like about it.

1. The show tried to trick us into thinking Jenna Fischer is some desirable hot babe everyone wants in an office environment. She's average as hell.

2. The show literally is telling us it is okay to fucking home rekt. That it is acceptable to tell an attached woman that you have feelings for her and justify it by telling yourself "it's only fair that she knows".

3. Really unrealistic that Jim would go back for Pam after getting a shot at Rashida Jones

Other than those two things the show is hilarious and I love it.

They explain this in one episode. Jan is literally crazy. Her psychologist told her that she should embrace a little self-destructive behavior, which meant dating Michael. It makes no sense whatsoever, but that's the joke.

Yeah I remember thinking what kinda psychologist says that. Was thinking maybe she was going to a quack or something. Just a complete 180 personality shift, maybe Michael did break her.

It becomes pretty clear over the course of the series that Dunder Mifflin is a terrible company that has no idea wtf they're doing. A major theme of the series is upper management's mis-management. Michael is the most prominent example of it, but he's also the most successful one.

Ryan sounds good to corporate because he a business degree. They just completely overlook that he knows absolutely nothing about the company.

I loved Ryan near the start where he like half or more of his screen time was just the deer in the headlights look. It's also hilarious on the downlow that he apparently gets used to it over the course of a season or two.

Remember Michael withdrew his application after learning that Jan was getting fired. I could definitely see him recommending Ryan after that.

Also I think its probably an office thing to hate HR people because they would be playing both sides and getting in the way.

Even David Wallace has a quick line when hes interviewing Jim for the corporate job about how is HR guy is the worst.

I mean it's not some genius show that you should put on a pedestal....just an enjoyable comedy with a very strong lead and decent secondary cast. It takes a little while to get good but it's a lot of fun. I'm glad it's on Comedy Central all the time now, because it's the perfect show to have on in the background (after doing a full watch through first).
