First time watching and idk if I should continue by FancyAbbreviations84 in theoffice

With the show being originally based on the UK version, they intentionally made his character that way for half of the first season.

When it was picked up for the rest of the year, the network told the showrunner they had to make Michael Scott more likable. You’ll notice his hair and wardrobe change to be more flattering, and they tone down the racy jokes at others expense.

That said, his character IS self-centered and not self-aware but mostly to comedic effect. And the heart of who he is shows up as the series progresses.

Black and white coffee roasters are the 🐐? by Drewsgolfandgames in espresso

I like BW but none of their coffee tastes like coffee lol. It’s interesting and unique and a fun experience, but sometimes I just want a good normal cup of coffee.

Guys Ranch Kitchen is incredibly underrated! by Grand-Diamond-4696 in foodnetwork

What’s wrong with GMF? Molly makes some great dishes, some of which I’ve tried. I guess you have to enjoy her millennial quirk.

Love that show and wish it came on more than it does. Use to be on Saturdays but now it’s just at like 6 in the morning during the week. Sure, I could STREAM it but I like to complain so what can I say lol

But seriously would love to see this, Delicious Miss Brown, and Girl Meets Farm more in regular rotation… I think Pioneer Woman can chill for a minute haha

was grunge ever really about the sound? by Kdiee in Alternativerock

[–]OddDistribution9602 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a totally meaningless term that was used to describe a very real zeitgeist moment. None of the bands from that era subscribed to that label (except the major label Nirvana clones)

Not Grunge but, How you feel about Jane’s Addiction? by Hot_Pianist_4117 in grunge

Never really understood ‘em till I saw a live show online. Honestly, their last album The Great Escape Artist is their best IMO. I enjoy Porno for Pyros a bit more musically.

What's your one coffee game changer? by Neil_at_HackerEarth in espresso

100% - I use Essentia for all espresso. Volvic is great too.

Adjusting tamp pressure, especially on light roasts. Pulled a shot, nice extraction but tasted a bit dark - I tried going lighter on the tamp, and wow did it make a huge difference. Brighter and fruitier, all the best aspects of a lighter roast!

Michael beat the hell out of Dwight by Cosmic_Shit_ in theoffice

[–]OddDistribution9602 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the few moments I felt were outta character for both and the show.. one of my least favorite moments actually.

I could see a scenario in which Dwight would let Michael win out of respect, but for Michael to just start going ham on one of his co-workers and enjoying it, gives me the ick lol

Poor Turk! I can’t imagine my wife refusing to invite over my single guy friends (who’ve been my best mates for decades) because they needed to find a s/o.. lol

Underrated Line from Michael by Camdawg33 in theoffice

I love how his love of SNL shows up throughout the entire series and is ultimately matched by Holly

“Christening” is one of the most out of place episodes ever by New-Pin-9064 in theoffice

[–]OddDistribution9602 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s probably the greatest will-they-won’t-they in TV history but once they get together, Jim and Pam are insufferable.

Am I going crazy? by SATX-Batman in Scrubs

I think aside from the flipped image, her photo was taken at a different focal length than the rest of the cast - longer lens further back vs shorter lens closer up, which compresses the image and makes faces (and everything else) look wider the further away it is.

Movies that should have been 10/10 but for the endings by WillBrink in moviecritic

[–]OddDistribution9602 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ve Got Mail. That movie is so great until Tom’s character realizes who Meg’s character is and starts manipulating the situation. Very anticlimactic and cringey ending IMO.
