    b,121Wasn't the line "...have washboard abs for when Angela sees me naked for the first time." ? Like he hasn't even gotten to take his shirt off around her.

    font class="post"1b,121b,121You're probably right, that's why I said it was an approximate quote - went straight from memory, but I think we all can agree that Andrew hasn't been "getting anything" from Angela yet (and possibly never).b,121b,121h,121font class="post"1b,121b,121You did say that, sorry. I wasn't trying to get all Simpsons comic book guy on you. I just wanted to convey that not only has Andy not hit that, Angela hasn't even seen him unclothed.

When he finds out that Dwight has been Angela's "meat man" for the past few months, it's gonna be comedy gold. Just like when the new HR lady found out that Kevin isn't retarded!b,121b,121I am kinda wishing that Michael would get it over with and tell New HR Woman what he's thinking - his reaction to Ms. HR going on a date was priceless...

    b,121And when Kelly said that Creed gave her a tapeworm, he looks dead at her and doesn't say shit. I love that guy.

    font class="post"1b,121b,121If you poke around on youtube, you'll see that Creed is almost always up on a riser when The Grass Roots are performing--perhaps he (or the band's management) had height issues.

    I love when Andy drunk dials Angela and for a second you hear Dwight say "Who is that, Monkey?" Andy's like "Is someone there?" for a second and then moves on. I love those blink-or-you'll-miss-it moments.

  • Is anyone else seeing the sexual tension building between Oscar and Andy? It's an unexpected twist.

    b, 21b, 21b, 21I got a little of that, but it's hard (no pasue) because Oscar underplays shit all the time. He's so hard to read. Oscar is one of the most nuanced, fascinating characters on the show, so I hope this means they'll be using him more.

    edit: sorry, possible spoilers! [/b]b, 21b, 21actually, I need some help. The whole Kelly-Ryan-Darryl thing. what was that about? I must have missed some episodes because last I heard Darryl quoted he was saying he was really into Kelly, not just on some "hit it and quit it." Did that just devolve into a situation where he was more than happy to let her go? I missed any parts where he was looking to dump her. Was there some sort of set-up?

When they showed him making out with the concierge (which Michael apparently thought meant "geisha"), I started to praise him for having such a tight game while being so damn goofy. But then the scene with him leaving her hotel room, without having Done The Deed, kinda put the kibosh on that.

So, the breakup didn't shock me.

    b, 21b, 21Darryl wasn't into her and I think the actor that plays Darryl is being written out of the show due to drug problems (I'm guessing here). He was arrested in June and the last few episodes have shown him being overweight and with a scratchy voice.
