You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

I was disappointed that it was probably the last ep we'll get this year.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Yep, you're me tiggy. It felt like they were laying out a story arc for the year and we won't see the full payback to me. At least, not any time soon.

I heard the '12' joke, because it's a joke I make all the time. 'Yes, I am 12'. Well, it's funny to ME, anyway.

I'm watching reruns and Booze Cruise made me all "awww." Poor Jim! Then is it called Best Friends? OMG Michael telling everyone! I loved Pam's, "So are you going to be all awkward around me now?" and Jim, "Oh yeah, definitely," and their grins at each other.

Kelly Kapoor was on FIRE! Loved the "trash talk" vs. "smack talk" speech.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Kelly owned that episode.

Hey, hey, you, you, I don't like your boyfriend
'Cause, 'cause, 'cause, 'cause, 'cause he sucks at ping pong

...And yet, it's still better than most Avril songs.

Hey now! Her first CD was good, and her second was all right. "Girlfriend" is atypically awful.

I only have her first, which has some really good songs. I mean, "Losing Grip" and "Unwanted" really rock. Nothing she's done sounds like "Sk8er Boi" except..."Sk8er Boi." For which I have a shameful love.

What is even happening?

I love Sk8er Boi because BoilsAndBlindingTorment did Xander LJ icons with the lyrics. Don't feel so ashamed.

Just enough. I'm with Cindy. Poor betrayed Michael.

Bless you, because I just looked and I didn't finish my thought. It's a thought we've discussed before, though. I don't mind Michael being a focus of the show. David Brent certainly was in the original, but I hate when Michael is so over the top. It nearly ruins the show for me. The documentary premise is looser in the U.S. version to begin with it, but when they're doing Laverne and Shirley type sitcommia, it makes me sad. It makes me feel like they're writing down to us.

I loved her! I'm constantly amazed how talented some of these writer/actors are. Mindy's always at the top of that list.
