Punishingly Intricate
Man, from McNulty to Michael Scott. That's not a trajectory to be proud of.
I KNOW! BEADIE!!!

Always Anti-fascist!
OMG, it was. I thought so, but I'm also "The Wire likes carrots," so I thought I imagined it. Now, what, she's going to find thirteen bales of paper that Creed forgot to do QA on and make them Michael's problem?
My god, Michael, have some damn pride, don't go to the Lamaze class.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Wait, that lady is on The Wire ? Oh, good, I liked her!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I knew she was familiar, but couldn't place her! Huh.
I am mad a Jim for wussing out, but I shouldn't be surprised.

Ann, that's a ferret.
And last night's Office is on our TiVo, waiting for Hubs to return from a business trip later today....
Though the comments here are only whetting my appetite....

I don't think he wussed out. The moment wasn't right anymore. He was totally ready until Andy fucked it up. You think Pam wanted to be sloppy seconds on engagement day?

I have a fair amount of real life experience being mad at guys who have this "perfect moment" hangup, when they should just do it already.

Fair enough.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Yeah, I can totally see both sides of the issue: I understand why he didn't do it, especially not right at that moment, because the moment would be forever tainted by association with Andy's ridiculousness. On the other hand, later that night? On the way home? At breakfast the next morning? Come on, Jim, just man up and do it! Nobody else needs to know that it happened on the same day as Andy's proposal.

Yeah, exactly this.
