Fuck Elon Musk, but this is one of Jim’s worst moments in that show. If someone comes back from an extended therapy program with a set of tools and techniques they are using to solidify and remind themselves of the changes they have made to themselves and their lives, and one of them is as simple as asking you to use the other half of their legal name as their short form moniker, you have to be a an asshole not to do so. So yeah, call Musky’s new sinking ship whatever you want, but don’t be Jim Halpert about it, because Drew never crossed the line in anger again. /rantover
Sir, this is a Wendy’s.
I maintain that everyone on The Office except Dwight was basically an absolute pile of shit.
One of my favorite shows cause everyone was charming but flawed, just like real life. If you filmed any of us for years, the viewers would say we are Irredeemable piles of shit just cause of our day to day mistakes and actions.
You’re dunking on a fictional character over a one-liner joke. Jesus, people work themselves into a lather.
Idk I was having fun. I critically interpret things. It’s what I do o_o
Jim is kind of an asshole a lot throughout the show, like repeatedly disrespecting Dwight’s martial arts and belts as a joke. Disrespecting his wife because she believes in the paranormal and he doesn’t. He makes fun of Dwight for being into “fake stuff” but is all about fantasy football. Plop doesn’t like sports so Jim immediately says that they have NOTHING in common, like a person’s entire worth is wrapped up in what sports they like. He belittles and looks down on everyone, even his bosses, but he has no personality beyond sports and pranks. Jim is a guy I would never get along with in person.
I’m no longer in the fan community for the show but I’ve been waiting for the day that everyone realizes that Jim’s entire character for the first 5 seasons is bullying his autistic coworker. That’s literally it. That, and having an emotional affair with his engaged coworker.
If you want Musk to fail, use the name that has less brand recognition and lower brand trust.
The Twitter brand was literally the most valuable part of that company. When people hear “X” they are MUCH more inclined to either
- not recognize the brand name
- focus on the fact that the product has changed significantly (for the worse)
Call it X.
I always felt like Jim was a dick here. But I agree in this context.
Jim is a dick in most of the office
He thinks he’s better than everyone he works with and really only treats people decently when he wants something
I love the Office and will say Jim is just a dick in general.
I posted a whole rant about this before I saw your comment. Suffice to say, I entirely agree. It’s one of his worst moments. What an asshole.
tfw when you’re too lazy to actually screenshot the clips with subtitles so you just add them in Snapchat
No, you don’t understand;
I paid the fees and everything.ᴋ.
Jim looks like Potato Head

So I have a younger, semi-autistic relative that wants to be called “Kalcifer.” To be it seemed absolutely stupid, and I refused, but I was nice about it. But I’ve heard of other people wanting the same thing. Can someone explain this to a Millennial please?
I’m a millennial and changed my name. I don’t know why your relative wants to be called something new. There are thousands of possible reasons. You could ask them directly. If they’re autistic, there’s a very good chance they’ll be happy to tell you their thought process in direct and concrete terms. You could also attempt to compromise by calling them “Cal” which is a more normal name. Denying them without understanding is pretty much the worst move >_>
“X. I go by X now.”
Angry X’ing
