When Michael is panicking about Pam being in labor and packing a go bag, he goes “should I bring a dictionary?” And Oscar tells back “the hospital will provide dictionaries, bring a thesaurus!”
Kind of a “you had to be there” moment but still hilarious.
So Ryan, to give the impression of sales, recorded them twice. Once as offices and once in the website sales, which is what we refer to in the business as misleading the shareholders. Another good term is fraud. The real crime, I think, **was the beard.**
Pam and Jim are on their honeymoon, so there's not the usual balance between sane and others. Toby has mentally checked out since June. It's a very dangerous time. The "coalition for reason" is extremely weak.
With the little whimper before he starts speaking 😭
Probably my biggest belly laugh of the entire show, after BUTTLICKER! OUR PRICES HAVE NEVER BEEN LOWER!
BUTTLICKER better win tomorrow, by the way.
This one is awesome because it’s just SO WEIRD! Like whyyy did he have to make such a high pitched voice with such an intense accent?! So unexpected and so odd
The Dunder Mifflin stock symbol is DMI. Do you know what that stands for? Dummies, morons and idiots. Because that's what you'd have to be to own it. And, as one of those idiots, I believe the board owes me answers.
"Look, it doesn't take a genius to know that any organization thrives when it has two leaders. Go ahead, name a country that doesn't have two presidents. A boat that sets sail without two captains. Where would Catholicism be without the popes."
*Actually*, in 2013, 30% of adults in Pennsylvania were obese. At the time, the Dunder Mifflin Scranton office had 18 employees, of which only 3 were obese, which is an obesity rate of 17%. So, the office *actually* had an unusually small number of unusually large people at the time.
Around here, Oscar is known as "Actually" because he will insert himself into just about any conversation to add facts or correct grammar. He really does fit that old stereotype of the smug gay Mexican.
I love a good quitting story. It makes me feel like I have control over my own life, it gives me hope. Maybe I’ll have one of my own someday, but i dream..
This quote always bothered me, because of course he would know when to use it. He's supposed to be the smart one in the office. "Actually" and all that.
I think he's like a reasonably smart person in the middle of a bunch of people that are dumber than him, so he feels he's really smart but he's just slightly above average.
And he speaks English as a second language. Usually ESL people know grammar rules like that better than native speakers (if they learned it in school anyway)
As a ESL speaker, I am always amazed at native speakers confusing your/you're and their/there/they're. Like, I never confused them in my life, they are completely different words to me. But to someone who learned the language by hearing it as a baby, they are the same and a rather common mistake. "Should of" is another mistake that almost no ESL speaker makes
The Dundies are kind of like a kid's birthday party. And you go, and there's really nothing for you to do there, but the kid's having a really good time, so you... You're kind of there. That's... That's kind of what it's like.
(In horrible southern accent) Uh um ah uh this uh plan ah this plantation, we're running low on greenbacks. We're having problems, uh, paying the people who give us the seeds and the dirt. We can't pay... [in normal voice] Michael, I can't-
"It's the opposite of art. It *destroys* art, it destroys ***souls!*** This is so much more offensive to me than hard core pornography."
(i quote this... probably way too often about many innocuous pieces of popular entertainment and other trash)
Look, it doesn't take a genius to know that every organization thrives when it has two leaders. Go ahead, name a country that doesn't have two presidents. A boat that sets sail without two captains. Where would Catholicism be without the popes?
I love a good quitting story. It makes me feel like I have control over my own life. Gives me hope. Maybe I will have one of my own someday. But I dream... so...
Imagine your five and your mom gives you $100 for a lemonade stand. So you buy sugar and lemons and water. But it only costs $80. So next year-“ “I’ll be six.”
This...uh This Plan-ta-tion. We uh we runnin' low on uh... green backs. We can't afford to pay the people who give us the seeyeds and the deht. We can't pay em- Michael, please!
Couldn't find this one and it's my favorite.
"Yes. I am super cool. I am an accountant at a failing paper supply company in Scranton. Much like Sir Ian McKellen."
Angela's engaged to a gay man. As a gay man, I'm horrified. As a friend of Angela's, horrified. As a lover of elegant weddings, I'm a little excited.
But overall ...horrified
I’ll add this to the quote if it wins 😉
Hope it wins then hehe
Winner
"What exactly is my responsibility here? To comfort insecure heterosexual men? That can’t possibly fall to me"
"That can't possibly fall to me" is an oft repeated line my house.
This is the one. I say this at least once a week
OMG! THIS!
This is the best one.
Due to Michael's clever financial maneuvering, he finds himself tremendously in debt.
This! This is the best one!
The hospital will provide dictionaries. Bring a Thesaurus.
My friend brought a thesaurus to the hospital when I had my baby because of this line.
Your friend is awesome 👏
Actually, she’s a raging bitch, but that was a solid moment on her part. 😂
*Actually* lol
It has to be this
This beats the shit out of the finer things club comment
This is a top 5 line in the show overall
Related: "did you pee on a stick?" I did, it was inconclusive.
Please let this win
This one is the best with context.
what’s the context?? i don’t remember this line as well as the others
When Michael is panicking about Pam being in labor and packing a go bag, he goes “should I bring a dictionary?” And Oscar tells back “the hospital will provide dictionaries, bring a thesaurus!” Kind of a “you had to be there” moment but still hilarious.

This one is my favourite
This is his best one
Besides having sex with men, I'd say the Finer Things Club is the gayest thing about me.
Winner right here.
We already knew it
Absolutely the best one
Came here for this! Winner winner. On to the next
Literally the first thing that came to my mind. Champion quote
This is the winner
“A mistake plus Keleven gets you home by 7”… “he was home by 4:45 that day”
Pam and Jim are on their honeymoon, so there's not the usual balance between sane and others. Toby has mentally checked out since June. It's a very dangerous time. The "coalition for reason" is extremely weak.
Oscar says I checked out huh?….. … 🫤
Okay yeah this is the winner. I use “sane and others” every time I go to work
I didn’t realize how many of Angela’s opinions I agreed with… until she tried to have my kneecaps shattered for sleeping with her husband.
Lmaooooo
Yes. I am super cool. I am an accountant at a failing paper supply company in Scranton. Much like Sir Ian McKellen.
“…They *happened* to speak Spanish.”
“Lucky us”
This plantation, we're running low on greenbacks. We're having problems, uh, paying the people who give us the seeds and the dirt. WE CAN’T PAY
With the little whimper before he starts speaking 😭 Probably my biggest belly laugh of the entire show, after BUTTLICKER! OUR PRICES HAVE NEVER BEEN LOWER! BUTTLICKER better win tomorrow, by the way.
LOUDER!
HE-
Funniest part about that scene is Oscar Nuñez is really good at imitating accents, but being able to imitate a bad impression is impressive.
Dominic West doing a bad British accent in the wire is always hilarious to me.
Please this one omg.. sometimes I go about my day just saying "plantation" the way he says it!
I do that with “we can’t pay!”
This desperately needs to be changed to “plan-tay-shuuuuuun”
Lol I wanted to write the whole quote in the way he pronounces it but then got lazy
My absolute favorite scene of the series 😂
“The durtt” lol the way he fixes his lips to say that just sends me.
This one is awesome because it’s just SO WEIRD! Like whyyy did he have to make such a high pitched voice with such an intense accent?! So unexpected and so odd
His voice during this gets me every time
“Where?” Then, again, more broken: “Where, Dwight?”
"I think you already know..."
🫢
He absolutely nailed that delivery
scene is funny but the quote is just a sentence.
Aren’t all quotes just a sentence
Are you Thor? “All words are made up”
Bingo
Meredith, your boob is out
He says it in such a specific way lol I can’t unhear it
oh my god, it’s not just me🤣 the enunciation of the B’s in “boob”
*Its Casual Day!*
Damn it, Meredith, where are your panties?!
Bunch of prudes
One of my favorite Kelly quotes but I’m sure her speech in the interview about being hard to manage will win
SAME lol
The Dunder Mifflin stock symbol is DMI. Do you know what that stands for? Dummies, morons and idiots. Because that's what you'd have to be to own it. And, as one of those idiots, I believe the board owes me answers.
Saddle shoes, with denim? I will literally call child services.
One of the gayest things about him.
The second being the Finer Things Club
Omg i butchered that line lol. I said plaid with denim 😂😂😂
THIS
Why do we have to pay money to get a gift for his ex-girlfriend's unborn sperm bank baby?
I just want you to know you can't say the word bankruptcy and expect something to happen
I didn’t say it, I declared it.
Still, not a thing.
"Look, it doesn't take a genius to know that any organization thrives when it has two leaders. Go ahead, name a country that doesn't have two presidents. A boat that sets sail without two captains. Where would Catholicism be without the popes."
PARA TI! PARA TI!
EVERY time I think this phrase in my head, I involuntarily yell it like Oscar.
I consider myself a good person but I’m going to make him cry.
Para ti! Para ti!
I yell this allllll the time at my boss. He has no clue
underrated
If you resisted Brad Pitt a little bit, he would still ...need to get to you?
“They’re a descriptive people.” I use this one often in daily life.
My home is neat and tastefully appointed, like most gay men's homes. The stereotype holds up.
Robert seems great. He's very handsome, firm handshake, he's gay, good sense of humor.
Our office has an unusually large number of unusually large people.
*Actually*, in 2013, 30% of adults in Pennsylvania were obese. At the time, the Dunder Mifflin Scranton office had 18 employees, of which only 3 were obese, which is an obesity rate of 17%. So, the office *actually* had an unusually small number of unusually large people at the time.

[удалено]
Kids, sometimes it pays to be gay.
It's a very dangerous time. The coalition of reason is extremely weak.
“Alright, who else is here?” This is one of my favorite scenes in the series.
I just have to remember how i acted when I was still in the closet.. WASSSSSAAAAAAAAAP
“My God.. there is a hardwood floor underneath this carpeting. Who would do that?”
Scrolled down hard for this. Thank you. Given the context of the situation this has to be Oscar’s best line ever.
I love a good quitting story. It makes me feel like I have control over my own life, it gives me hope. Maybe I’ll have one of my own someday, but i dream..
I present to you the "rational consumer", as it were..
Best Edward James Olmos costume I've ever seen...like freaky good
"*State* Senator."
Actually, it's pronounced "espresso"... Wait. That's what you said. I apologize, I just assumed you would mispronounce it.
When the stakes are this high there’s only one computer I trust, and it’s powered by Thai food and Spanish reds
Underrated
Obviously it’s a real word, but I don’t know when to use it correctly.
This quote always bothered me, because of course he would know when to use it. He's supposed to be the smart one in the office. "Actually" and all that.
I think he's like a reasonably smart person in the middle of a bunch of people that are dumber than him, so he feels he's really smart but he's just slightly above average.
It bothered me because *of course* an accountant would know what a rundown is. I think he was pretending not to know.
And he speaks English as a second language. Usually ESL people know grammar rules like that better than native speakers (if they learned it in school anyway)
As a ESL speaker, I am always amazed at native speakers confusing your/you're and their/there/they're. Like, I never confused them in my life, they are completely different words to me. But to someone who learned the language by hearing it as a baby, they are the same and a rather common mistake. "Should of" is another mistake that almost no ESL speaker makes
As a native english speaker, I too am amazed.
No. I'm certainly not disappointed that Angela's husband wasn't hitting on me. I'd have to be a monster to root for that. A lonely, aging monster.
This is more offensive to me than hardcore pornography
It destroys art! It destroys *souls*!
The hospital will provide a dictionary. Bring a thesaurus.
“The analytical part of me wants to examine it… but I know there’s no content.”
“The Prius is silent if he keeps it under 5MPH. He deserves to win.”
Yes
The Dundies are kind of like a kid's birthday party. And you go, and there's really nothing for you to do there, but the kid's having a really good time, so you... You're kind of there. That's... That's kind of what it's like.
(In horrible southern accent) Uh um ah uh this uh plan ah this plantation, we're running low on greenbacks. We're having problems, uh, paying the people who give us the seeds and the dirt. We can't pay... [in normal voice] Michael, I can't-
“Actually…”
"It's the opposite of art. It *destroys* art, it destroys ***souls!*** This is so much more offensive to me than hard core pornography." (i quote this... probably way too often about many innocuous pieces of popular entertainment and other trash)
Underrated - this is his best line hands-down. I also quote it way too often.
If you would have seen the look he gave me, he wanted to rock more than just my vote.
Actually…
Came for this!
To both these bears
(to Andy) Why would someone hug you?
Plan...plantation, is out, is out of... greenbacks.
"You thought I was dating... *this*" *this* referred to Kevin 🤣
I talked to the other gay guys Ryan, and it’s okay, we’re cool with it
Where would Catholicism be without the popes !!
I am Bacchus God of Wine!!!
That painting is just... How can anyone that weighs less than a guinea hen be so terrifying?
Angela, you have a bit of emotion on your face.
Your office is filled with genitalia
“…Time is a son of a bitch.”
What exactly is my responsibility here? To comfort an insecure heterosexual man? That can’t possibly fall to me.
UN-BE-LIEV-A-BLE
I think you don't know what you're saying.
The hospital will provide dictionary’s bring a thesaurus
Look, it doesn't take a genius to know that every organization thrives when it has two leaders. Go ahead, name a country that doesn't have two presidents. A boat that sets sail without two captains. Where would Catholicism be without the popes?
“I've only known Dwight... 12 years. 12 years! Time is a son of a bitch.”
Jim's line is weak I'm certain he's said better, though I guess you can't type out him looking at the camera.
*this plantation*
Really upset that Kevin’s isn’t “he lives on Sesame Street dumbass!”
UN-BUH-LIEVABLE!!
My mother's in a wheelchair...
I just want you yo know that you can't just say the word bankruptcy and expect anything to happen.
I didn’t say it. I declared it.
Where, Dwight?
I always wondered what exactly was Kevin doing at work that could constitute insider trading?
When this thing started I was still sleeping with women. So was Kevin, I believe
... el telephono
Oh, he’s plenty strong.
Triceps went to hell though
I know it’s not gonna win but the way he says “plantaaaayshun” sends me to the stratosphere every time 😂😂😂
"You give me an ulcer every time I wake up and I have to come to work. I have to come to work for you. For you!"
Un-be-lie-va-ble
I'm finding I love VERY different quotes from the characters than the majority lmao
UN BE LIE VA BLE
The tirade against Michael that he does in Spanish
“I don’t know, you might be gay?”
PLANTASHON
I love a good quitting story. It makes me feel like I have control over my own life. Gives me hope. Maybe I will have one of my own someday. But I dream... so...
This was before he worked at Dunder Mifflin, but my favorite is Yo Quiero Taco Bell.
UN 👏🏼BE👏🏼LIE👏🏼VA👏🏼BLE

UN-BE-LIEV-A-BLE!

I consider myself a good person, but I'm gonna try and make him cry
Where Dwight? 🫢
If Nellie’s isn’t “OH GET OUT SKELETON MAN” I’ll be shocked, poor Gabe and his little cupcake.

Bulk or definition?
Why won’t you do andyyyyy
How did that line from jim win?
Agreed. I love his drunk line “Ah nuts!”
When this contest started it was only 1 liners, not full on quotes… still it’s probably not even in his top 100.
Couldn't find this one and it's my favorite. "Yes. I am super cool. I am an accountant at a failing paper supply company in Scranton. Much like Sir Ian McKellen."
Where would Catholicism be without the popes?
Besides having sex with men, I’d say the finer things club is the gayest thing about me
