I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Is it bad when something on Better Off Ted exactly reflects something that's going on in my workplace?

YES.

Yeah, I thought so.

Bosses. Everybody has one. Without bosses, we’d be like these worms. Disgusting. Bosses make everything better. So listen to your boss. And don’t question them. Otherwise you’re no better than a worm. Veridian Dynamics. Bosses. Necessary.

Veridian Dynamics. Friendship. It's so important. But it's different at work. Time spent with friends at work robs your employer of opportunity. And robbing people is wrong. Veridian Dynamics. Friendship. It's the same as stealing.

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

Oh my God, the Community clip show. Oh my God. Amazing.

And I am all caught up with Community. I'm so glad I get MORE!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I am having such a hard time convincing people IRL to watch Community. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I'm usually much better at pitching stuff like this.

I even showed the paintball ep to my sister--she liked it, but has no urge to watch the rest. What's wrong with her?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I think when the show is good, it's very very good, but when it's bad, it's boring. And Chevy Chase creeps me out a little. I'll probably give it another chance sooner or later.

I gave the first season to my brother for his birhtday, when we got to his house last week, the first thing he said is "THIS is what I miss about not living in the US". Apparently, he made his friends watch it too. Then I had to rub it in more by just telling him things like "just wait... they do a clip show of all new clips and an stop-motion Christmas ep" I think he hates me just a little bit now. He made me promise to give him Season 2 for Christmas.

just wait... they do a clip show of all new clips

After the reaction to the clip show, I had an inkling that it was not your typical clip show. I thought that it would be them remembering previous events differently or showing us things that were happening to the side of the frame or something. I don't think I was prepared for racist sheriffs, haunted houses, and St. Patrick's Day shenanigans.

an stop-motion Christmas ep

And with this one, I assumed that only a portion of the episode would be in stop-motion, not THE ENTIRE THING. Oh, show.
