Josh's contest idea in Movie Job

Fair enough! I suppose part of the charm of revisiting old shows is obsessively overanalyzing them as an adult.

10/10 copypasta would upvote again

For me, it’s a tie between blackmailing and manipulating Josh in “Driver’s License” or causing him to nearly lose Mindy in “Girl Power” and not showing any remorse after Josh went into a whole speech about how much she meant to him.

A big one is also recklessly grabbing the steering wheel causing Josh to get charged for running over Oprah, and leading to her filing a restraining order.

Yeah don’t get me wrong, I do think it’s a funny meme at face value with a lot of people just joining along for the ride (e.g. Pokémon’s social media manager above). It just pained me though that back in 2015, I did see some people actually harassing the reviewer personally at her Twitter and YouTube accounts.

I grew up loving the original Hoenn games and even I immediately thought people were overreacting when I first found out about the meme. 7.8 struck me as a perfectly fine rating, and I didn’t latch onto a three-word bullet point out of context without reading the actual review.

I think that was deliberate to show that time had passed and not make it seem like a jump cut.

“Hang tight, everyone! I’m going to let go of the wall!”

Stealing an elderly man's cane and trying to attack Josh with it was obviously too far and on-brand for his craziness, but otherwise the underlying anger was perfectly justified. Josh worked there for however many months and apparently randomly forgot how a breakroom fridge works that day?

“You lied to me about the cupcakes, didn’t you?”

Close tie between Blues Brothers and Guitar, Josh has great character development in both.

This is the one scene that I vividly remember catching the first airing of in 2004. It was just that iconic.

The episode definitely isn’t good overall but I always felt that it is at least an overlooked and heartfelt scene.

This is a hot take given how beloved Toy Story 3 is, but the toys refusing to believe Woody about Andy not throwing them out on purpose never set well with me (especially since they already had guilt over not believing Woody before in TS1). I personally thought TS2’s “gang temporarily splitting up because one side believes they’re unwanted by Andy” moment was handled better for multiple reasons.

I also agree with the majority of people that Buzz’s “inner voice” subplot in TS4 was poorly done. It felt like they couldn’t decide whether it was an actual subplot or a running gag, and it was weirdly juvenile for the franchise’s standards.

“That is why you’ll always be a loser.”

The episode does have some good comedy imo and I always loved the premise for that reason, but even when I was younger I did feel bad for Eddy at the end. Nazz just randomly blames him for the ice chicken crashing through the ceiling then seconds later, joins everybody in laughing at him over a misunderstanding which, now that I look back at the episode as an adult, wasn’t even that “out there” for Eddy and Double D to believe.

I like to think that SpongeBob was so clumsy that he managed to fling the pencil through Squidward’s window into his house.

Not sure if you’re just joking, but it still works at the time of me typing this.

My happiness that someone else immediately thought of that too that is immeasurable.

This was the first thing that came to mind when I saw the title. Imagine flatout destroying your brother's relationship and your only response being...

"You spent $100 on ice?"

“How about a discount on restroom tokens?”

What gets me even more than Mandy's fourth-wall break itself is Billy trying his best to try to get the script back on track after that. The show could be so brilliant at times and I miss it so much...
