Favorite quotes

Toby: Hi, I’m Toby Flenderson. Or as Michael refers to me, “Worthless.” Or “Everything That’s Wrong with the Paper Industry.” Or “The Devil’s Butthole.” Or “The Mayor of Creepsville.” Or “Gargamel.” Or “Human Fart.” Or … HR nightmares here at Dunder Mifflin? I don’t know if I’d call them that, you know? “Nightmare” implies that it’s something you wake up from. This is more of an unrelenting daymare, kind of this never-ending dreamscape of horror.

Toby: So when I finally re-did our health care plan, I picked an HMO. And Michael came to me and he said, “Why’d you pick a homo?” And I said, “I didn’t. And that’s a derogatory word for a gay person.” And he said, “That’s what you are.” And I said, “Okay, I gotta go.” And he called me a slut.

Toby: After Michael grilled his foot, he spent three months inventing a foot-safe version of the George Foreman grill. He called it the “Magic No-Ouchie Meat Machine.” It’s actually a George Foreman grill in a bunny cage.

Toby: Sometimes when I come into work, I ask myself if this were my last day on Earth, what would I do differently. Well, I’d wear a t-shirt, and I’d order a French dip sandwich and I’d eat the whole thing. And I’d blow this building up. And I’d go swimming. And I’d drink wine. What?

   I just checked again and the vids are gone. :-( Glad I got to see them before they were pulled or you had to pull them. You do a fantastic job with this site and I love that you were mentioned in one of the Season 2 ep commentaries on DVD.

   Ha. Isn’t it hilarious how happy Toby gets talking about going swimming? Like all of a sudden he says: “I’d blow this building up, and I’d go swimming, and I’d drink wine. What?”

   It’s so funny how each thing he would do gives him a different level of excitement. He would love to eat all of that sandwich but THEN..he would blow up the building(how evil he looks there) and then he thinks about swimming and his demeanor changes.

   Ha. Toby is awesome. We need more Toby.
   TOBY
   YEAH!

   I always think about the camerapeople. I think the greatest show would be how the cameraperson hates his job.

   Thank you so much for all this Toby goodness. I’m new to the “interweb” and this is all very mysterious to me.I adore The Office, especially like in Season 1 (Hot Girl. I think) when Jim jokingly tells Kevin and Roy that his type is “moms… soccer moms, single moms, nascar moms…” I’m not sure if that quote is accurate, but either way my whole postpartum depression suddenly disappeared.

    “And then he called me a slut”

    I don’t think I’ve laughed that hard at anything in about 6 weeks.

    Thanks for posting all the videos. I took cold medicine last night and fell asleep during the marathon so I’m glad I got to see all of them today. :)

    Tanster,

    Thanks so much for posting the videos. Right now I’m depending on and old VCR for posterity and sometimes it kind of flips out on me.

    And… I’m still giggling over “Gargamel” a whole day later.

    I looooooved when Toby asked Kelly what she felt when she slaped Michael! I watched it five times!

    Thanks for the videos! I’m in Brazil and this is the only way I can see this.

    (sorry my poor english ;-) )

    I thought Benihana Christmas was aired as one complete hour-long episode.

    80-

    It was aired as one hour-long episode both times it aired. It was billed as an hour-long special as the season finale will be.

    With Toby’s creepiness over Pam lately, I had forgotten why I loved Toby so much. Now I remember. And I love him all over again :)
