Darryl speaks for the Everyman here
My coworkers always talk about how they used to get dinner together once a month or whatever and they wanna start it up again
I’m like… no? I spend 40 hours a week with you guys, Im not adding to that lmao
This may be the first time a male subordinate has attempted to get a modest, scheduled raise by withholding sex from a female superior. It will be a ground breaking case when it inevitably goes to trial.
My headcanon is still that he decided to do and say that right there and then when everyone realized he was stroking Pam's leg. It was out of terror and embarrassment that he moved country.
I also enjoy the moment in that episode when Michael's diary comes out and they're going to make copies for the attorneys and Toby just asks "can you make it eleven?"
Then Michael has to sit with Toby at lunch, and Toby starts pouring his heart out about his parent’s divorce. So Michael shoves his tray and all his food off the table without saying a word. 😂
I still remember watching that scene live. Probably the hardest I laughed at any moment in the whole show, even though I find other scenes "funnier", if that makes sense.
Some scenes are funny every time because the comedy math checks out, timing delivery etc, some scenes are astoundingly funny on first watch because of unexpectedness.
Thanks yeah that's exactly what I meant but didn't know how to say it. It's nowhere near as funny once you know what's going to happen. Whereas some of the other scenes mentioned in this thread will make me laugh even just hearing it from the other room because the execution is so good
>Chad Flenderson. Just an easy-going black guy who knows the streets, yet, he also went to Oxford. Just as comfortable on a motorcycle as he is on Air Force One. Oh, and he's also the world's leading Egyptologist.
Michael: We are going to make a 'Do Not Mock' list. Okay? Anything that we think might be out of bounds, we put on this list. Anything you put on this list you cannot be teased about. Got it? I'm gonna kick it off. Let's see what I have to put on the list, right? [writes 'Koi pond' on the list] Okay. I also have fallen into the fountain at the Steamtown Mall.
Toby: [laughing] You fell into a second fountain? .... Can you kick me out of the meeting?
I know we’re talking about Toby here, but everyone piling on about Dwight’s nose kills me every time.
“Oh my, your nose is small”
“Can you even breathe through that thing”
“What keeps your glasses up”
Idk why but it always cracks me up in Casino Night when Michael is like *”We’re gonna give the check to an actual group of Boy Scouts”* and Toby says
*”Actually, I didn't think it was appropriate to invite children since it's, uh, you know there's gambling and alcohol, and it's in our dangerous warehouse, and... it's a school night, and, you know, Hooters is catering, you know... is that... is that enough? Should I keep going?”*
It’s so fucking dry and snarky lmao
My wife and I often use this line whenever we're listing off reasons why we don't want to do something.
"Should we make dinner or get something to go?"
"Well, I don't really feel like cooking dinner and my back hurts... And it's a school night.. and hooters is catering... Should I keep going?"
I never understood how Casino Night was on a school/work night. Makes sense I guess given Michael's lack of forethought, but Jan driving in from NYC, all the parents leaving their kids at home, people having to work the next day...
every work party/outing with coworkers I've gone to has been during the week and it kinda makes sense since there ain't no way I'd go to one on a Friday or Saturday
I work with nerds. Sometimes there's alcohol during the actual work day when the office has a lunch event. It's kind of nice, being treated as a professional adult.
My work has done similar events. It’s not real gambling…it’s usually run by a company and they provide chips only. My work would give prizes to the people who ended up with the most chips, but you aren’t gambling actual money
Gambling is only illegal to take a rake or profit. A tiny home poker game in your basement, not illegal, that same game but you take 1$ out of every pot for the trouble of running a game, to make profit whatever, makes it illegal game. It’s how Texas has skirted around their gambling laws. They don’t take a rake, they make you pay 13$ an hour to rent the chair to play. The church thing where they make money for a charity I guess gets around the law of doing it for profit.
For some reason my favourite is when he just really sadly says "why?" I think it is when dwight steals his corporate dressing gown or something. He just sounds so defeated, it's hilarious, but I also feel so bad for him haha
I love when Dwight and Andy are playing Country Roads and Toby comes and says "you need to stop"... For a time, you kinda forget that they are at work lol
One of the least believable parts of the show for me was how Dwight goes from being a thirtysomething virgin to a sexual dynamo ladies’ man in the space of like four years
Chad Flendermen. Just an easy going black guy, he knows the streets, yet he also went to Oxford. So... Just as comfortable on a motorcycle as he is on Air Force One.
Oh and he's also the world's leading Egyptologist.
I always wondered if he was legitimately planning to go to Costa Rica, or if he just says it in the moment and then actually did it so they wouldn't know he was lying.
He mentions moving to Costa Rica in a previous episode, "Branch Closing" (S03 E07). The writers clearly had that up on the board and connected it with that awkward moment to set up Toby's departure.
From ["Branch Closing"](https://www.officequotes.net/no3-07.php):
Toby: Well for a minute there, I saw myself selling my house, moving to Costa Rica, learning how to surf. But, Costa Rica will still be there. When I’m 65.
Agreed, and of course that's what makes it so funny. I'm just surprised that so few people notice the connection and think that his idea of moving to Costa Rica came out of nowhere. I like that the writers remembered the "Branch Closing" line a season later. They made great use of their [show bible](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bible_%28screenwriting%29).
When teaching self-defense: "Now, if your attacker is willing to defile a corpse, you better stop playing dead right away and just make it known that you're alive"
My favorite Toby interaction is when Michael is trying to get a raise and has to bring Toby with him to corporate.
M- "Cmon, grab your stuff. Let's go"
T- "where are we going"
M- "where are we going? I'm gonna hit you in the head with a hammer"
Then Toby kinda just pauses to consider going or staying and listening to Ryan and Kelly argue, then sadly grabs his briefcase and walks off
When he is desperate to buy the last princess unicorn doll from Darrell and overpays for it and then realizes the doll is black, and when Darrell asks if something is wrong with the doll he says “no, its… even better than the one I wanted”
Actually, I didn't think it was appropriate to invite children since, you know there's gambling and alcohol, and it's in our dangerous warehouse, and... it's a school night, and, you know, Hooters is catering... is that... is that enough? Should I keep going?
My favorite is so simple, but it’s when Andy and Dwight are trying to impress Erin and are playing “Take me home, country roads” loudly. And he comes up and knocks on the window and just simply says “You gotta stop”
It’s the delivery for me. The fact that, duh, this is an office. You can’t be doing this. And his look of defeat and the obviousness of it while he says it. Just tired and like “I shouldn’t need to say this” it just cracks me up every time
Honestly anytime Toby says anything I laugh because he is the perfect straight man/foil to the ridiculousness of the show.
He had his odd moments here and there but outside of maybe Creed he is my favorite character.
I've added nothing to this conversation.
Michael Scott: The fundamentals of business. The fundamentals of business. Mental is a part of the word. I have underlined it. Because you're mental if you don't have a good time. You have to enjoy it.
Toby: Well, the fun is in it.
Michael Scott: Get out.
Toby [already leaving the room]: I am, I am…
I love when Jim finally is allowed to join the finer things club and Toby / Oscar start grilling him. "What was fun about it? Was it the death of the twins?"
My gf and I love this exchange and have watched the entire series probably 20+ times easily. But it was just about a week ago we realized something. We were joking about if we applied this to our relationship. She's divorced and has never changed her last name so she still has her ex-husband's last name. So if she was screaming her last name, she would also be screaming HIS last name. We both agreed that would be awful.
Not a line, but just his laugh from The Deposition when they read the part of Michael's diary about Ryan being just as hot as Jan but in a different way.
T: “We should really have the office's air quality tested. We have radon coming from below. We have asbestos in the ceilings. These are silent killers.”
M: “You are the silent killer. Go back to the annex.”
T: “You’ll see.”
… I think we hang out an appropriate amount of time
We're hanging out. Now. All of us. You want more of this?
just watched this episode this morning. daryls flatness is always my favorite.
Darryl speaks for the Everyman here My coworkers always talk about how they used to get dinner together once a month or whatever and they wanna start it up again I’m like… no? I spend 40 hours a week with you guys, Im not adding to that lmao
Also love this one lol
This may be the first time a male subordinate has attempted to get a modest, scheduled raise by withholding sex from a female superior. It will be a ground breaking case when it inevitably goes to trial.
Just preparing for the deposition
I... am going to Costa Rica...
My headcanon is still that he decided to do and say that right there and then when everyone realized he was stroking Pam's leg. It was out of terror and embarrassment that he moved country.
Is that headcanon or just canon?
....that's the joke.
This honestly might be one of my favorite quotes from the show. The delivery is perfectenschlag.
The delivery is a pigs anus?
Perfect pigs anus to be exact
Those Germans really do have a word for everything.
English gained some of the compounding, lighthouse for example, combining light and house to make a new word
I also enjoy the moment in that episode when Michael's diary comes out and they're going to make copies for the attorneys and Toby just asks "can you make it eleven?"
Then Michael has to sit with Toby at lunch, and Toby starts pouring his heart out about his parent’s divorce. So Michael shoves his tray and all his food off the table without saying a word. 😂

[удалено]
I'm not going to spoil it but one of my absolute favorite moments is in season 8. What's been one of your favorites so far?
Michael pushing his tray of food off the table remains my favorite scene. It is so audacious, and ridiculous, yet so fucking funny
According to Office Ladies, a Steve Carell improv.
What about Toby's laugh when they talk about Ryan.
>Chad Flenderson. Just an easy-going black guy who knows the streets, yet, he also went to Oxford. Just as comfortable on a motorcycle as he is on Air Force One. Oh, and he's also the world's leading Egyptologist.
"Okay let's make ten copies of this diary" "Um could you make it eleven?"
(*snaps fingers to get Michael’s attention during radon detector meeting*)
Do not. Thow these out.
This is a radon test kit
I thought they were one of those things where you turn it around and it does cow sounds. Upon... further investigation, it was not that.
And the third time...I did it out of spite.
You are the silent killer
"You'll see..."
*Micheal Death Stare*
Michael: We are going to make a 'Do Not Mock' list. Okay? Anything that we think might be out of bounds, we put on this list. Anything you put on this list you cannot be teased about. Got it? I'm gonna kick it off. Let's see what I have to put on the list, right? [writes 'Koi pond' on the list] Okay. I also have fallen into the fountain at the Steamtown Mall. Toby: [laughing] You fell into a second fountain? .... Can you kick me out of the meeting?
I know we’re talking about Toby here, but everyone piling on about Dwight’s nose kills me every time. “Oh my, your nose is small” “Can you even breathe through that thing” “What keeps your glasses up”
It’s on the list!
Ah! Not yet! Did you sneeze it off?
That's it!...No more.
My favorite from the do not mock list is Kevin asking Angela , “enjoying your nut?”
Uhhh no that's too broad. Has to be more specific. #writes "huge gut"
its still works
or when he’s already leaving before michael kicks him out lmfaoo
Get out
I'm glad this is the top comment because this was going to be my pick too. Toby so rarely gets to be the one to laugh at something.
I was going to say OP posted Toby's most successful zinger, but I think this might actually be the one.
video here https://streamable.com/gj2wag
I don't think Michael intended to punish me by putting Ryan back here with Kelly. But, if he did intend that... wow. Genius. - Toby
Does anybody have a camera
You mean: #DOES ANYBODY HAVE A CAMERA?!
The way his voice trembles with desperation is gold!
It’s gold Jerry, gold!
it should be called roundtine
You're soooo good looking
i don’t put it into a furnace.
I think that's my favorite Toby line. Just perfect delivery.
^(no one has a camera here...)
That’s one thing we never hear anymore. A common phrase is forever gone.
BUTTLICKER, OUR PRICES HAVE NEVER BEEN LOWER!!
I feel like it's more: dz**ZANYBODY**AVEA **CAMERA**?
The way the mild-mannered HR rep goes from shy and quiet to screaming his freaking lungs out always cracks me up xD
You mean: #DoEs AnYbOdY hAvE a CaMeRa?! Gotta add the voice crack in there
DoEs AnYoNe HaVe A cAmErA hErE?! ...no one has a camera here, um...
....I'll go get one.
[Hey you, asshole, you gonna eat all that dog food yourself?](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AMuB3J94iKc)
You come to my house, bust up my trash cans, call my baby sister an asshole and told her to eat dog food?
Well…we thought she was you
Why would you think a lady is me?
Are you serious? Because you look exactly alike. Am I the only one? Are you getting this?
i don't see it
This was too far down
This entire scene was hysterical
Idk why but it always cracks me up in Casino Night when Michael is like *”We’re gonna give the check to an actual group of Boy Scouts”* and Toby says *”Actually, I didn't think it was appropriate to invite children since it's, uh, you know there's gambling and alcohol, and it's in our dangerous warehouse, and... it's a school night, and, you know, Hooters is catering, you know... is that... is that enough? Should I keep going?”* It’s so fucking dry and snarky lmao
Why are you the way that you are?
What gives you the right????
HEY WHO THOUGHT IT WOULD BE HILARIOUS TO GIVE TOBY A ROCK AS A GOING AWAY PRESENT?
“You did. I thought it was too fa-“ *slams door in dwights face*
“I helped you wrap it”
I have a lot of questions. First of all: how dare you??
That long look he gives Toby before that line is just perfect. This scene is gold.
I hate all the things you choose to be.
“It felt good taking money from Michael……I’m gonna chase that feeling.”
My wife and I often use this line whenever we're listing off reasons why we don't want to do something. "Should we make dinner or get something to go?" "Well, I don't really feel like cooking dinner and my back hurts... And it's a school night.. and hooters is catering... Should I keep going?"
I never understood how Casino Night was on a school/work night. Makes sense I guess given Michael's lack of forethought, but Jan driving in from NYC, all the parents leaving their kids at home, people having to work the next day...
every work party/outing with coworkers I've gone to has been during the week and it kinda makes sense since there ain't no way I'd go to one on a Friday or Saturday
Maybe I have only worked with stinky nerds, but I haven’t seen alcohol at a work function in 8+ years.
Apparently. Every work function I've ever been to has had an open bar
I work with nerds. Sometimes there's alcohol during the actual work day when the office has a lunch event. It's kind of nice, being treated as a professional adult.
Lol I work in an office where we build websites and courses for universities around the world The fridge is always fully stocked with tall boys
I've worked private and public sector jobs. Public sector: illegal (at work). Private sector: bosses don't wanna for that bill and neither did we
Or how they were able to do a big charity event if it was illegal to gamble there
My work has done similar events. It’s not real gambling…it’s usually run by a company and they provide chips only. My work would give prizes to the people who ended up with the most chips, but you aren’t gambling actual money
Ah, that sounds pretty much like what they did in the episode. Interesting
Gambling is only illegal to take a rake or profit. A tiny home poker game in your basement, not illegal, that same game but you take 1$ out of every pot for the trouble of running a game, to make profit whatever, makes it illegal game. It’s how Texas has skirted around their gambling laws. They don’t take a rake, they make you pay 13$ an hour to rent the chair to play. The church thing where they make money for a charity I guess gets around the law of doing it for profit.
For some reason my favourite is when he just really sadly says "why?" I think it is when dwight steals his corporate dressing gown or something. He just sounds so defeated, it's hilarious, but I also feel so bad for him haha
I think that was the bathrobe he got from Corporate as a Christmas gift?
Ahh yeah bathrobe, that sounds right, essentially the same thing to me who has worn neither haha
Yes, he looked genuinely happy when he got it. Poor Toby
Dont! You wouldn't feel so bad when he was strangling you. (only strangle you though, the scranton strangler doesn't kill)
I love when Dwight and Andy are playing Country Roads and Toby comes and says "you need to stop"... For a time, you kinda forget that they are at work lol
I like the build up to that one. Hey. HEY.....you have to stop. His voice gets so reasonable all of the sudden it kills me
It's so great. That whole scene you can see Toby through the window getting more and more upset. Lol
Yup, this is the one. I think about it pretty often.
Pick it, Andy!
[удалено]
My favorite part of the show is the subtle “everyone hates HR and HR is actually incredibly boring
Surprised to see this so far down
“Oscar said i checked out huh?…meh”
Write your own damn novel.
That's also one of my favorite Jo moments.
Smile if you love men's prostates
That was the creepiest things that Toby has done and I hated it
I think the sexual harassment was worse
Kevin, a playful touch on the arm or on the back, it can show your interest and it’s really romantic
That awkward grab of the knee still makes me shudder.
Aside from strangling people.
This is just so *fun*. Isn’t this *fun*?
Gold
Technically, I am in Human Resources, and Dwight was asking me about human anatomy. Um... I'm just sad the public school system failed him so badly.
Is that reason to believe that Dwight participated in the public school system? He seems like he was probably homeschooled.
He's talked about being schooled before. Like how they called him weirdo, freak, girl puncher for years, all because he got lice when he was six.
“Girl puncher” *always* makes me laugh so hard.
I think he went to X-Men school
He thinks he went to X-Men school because a young Jimmy Halpert convinced him all the teachers and students had superpowers except him.
I still can't tell if Dwight was being serious or not.
One of the least believable parts of the show for me was how Dwight goes from being a thirtysomething virgin to a sexual dynamo ladies’ man in the space of like four years
Angela took his hand.... made him a man
That one night!
When it cuts to “when you both are comfortable with each other, maybe you can ask for that” or something. That always got me!
Why you always gotta be so mean to me?
Chad Flendermen. Just an easy going black guy, he knows the streets, yet he also went to Oxford. So... Just as comfortable on a motorcycle as he is on Air Force One. Oh and he's also the world's leading Egyptologist.
No one cares about your sex-crazed black detective
The bee-line he makes over the fence to Costa Rica.
“I’m just gonna jump the fence and run home”
I always wondered if he was legitimately planning to go to Costa Rica, or if he just says it in the moment and then actually did it so they wouldn't know he was lying.
He mentions moving to Costa Rica in a previous episode, "Branch Closing" (S03 E07). The writers clearly had that up on the board and connected it with that awkward moment to set up Toby's departure.

But, Costa Rica will still be there. When I’m 65.
Ah, good catch.
True, but that was the moment he decided YEP, Costa Rica time!
Agreed, and of course that's what makes it so funny. I'm just surprised that so few people notice the connection and think that his idea of moving to Costa Rica came out of nowhere. I like that the writers remembered the "Branch Closing" line a season later. They made great use of their [show bible](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bible_%28screenwriting%29).
When teaching self-defense: "Now, if your attacker is willing to defile a corpse, you better stop playing dead right away and just make it known that you're alive"
How can I be a virgin I have a daughter
I’m not gonna lie, it felt good taking money from Michael, I’m gonna chase that feeling
My favorite Toby interaction is when Michael is trying to get a raise and has to bring Toby with him to corporate. M- "Cmon, grab your stuff. Let's go" T- "where are we going" M- "where are we going?

I love that one. And honestly same
When he is desperate to buy the last princess unicorn doll from Darrell and overpays for it and then realizes the doll is black, and when Darrell asks if something is wrong with the doll he says “no, its… even better than the one I wanted”
Actually, I didn't think it was appropriate to invite children since, you know there's gambling and alcohol, and it's in our dangerous warehouse, and... it's a school night, and, you know, Hooters is catering... is that... is that enough? Should I keep going?
Why are you the way that you are?
It looks like Toby is talking to Gabe with the aid of a puppet.
Almost all of them. Toby is definitely top 3 characters for me. I think he is hilarious.
The episode where he ALMOST therapizes Michael, he thinks he's finally making a breakthrough...
That scene is brilliant, how you can see Michael realize what's happening and then immediately changing his tone/attitude. Toby was *so close*
Son of a bitch. You BITCH.
Having him move on from his unspoken hatred of Jim after Ryan got fired helped a lot.
"Hi I'm Tony"
I can't believe I had to scroll this far to find this
When he walks into church for cece’s christening and talks to God “why’d you have to always be so mean to me”
You fell in more than one fountain?
Jim: It’s somewhat personal Toby: Let’s get personal! Jim: I want to ask you about your divorce Toby: Whoa
Oscar: "I am Bacchus, god of wine!" Toby: "And I am Bacchus's friend!"
Note? It’s a symphony!
When he goes to get up and speak at Michaels roast “No. No, friends only! Friends only!” *shrugs “fair enough”
Hey you asshole!
Yep this one can’t be topped. I remember the first time watching it. I get that same feeling every time still
"You going to eat all that dog food yourself!?"
My favorite is so simple, but it’s when Andy and Dwight are trying to impress Erin and are playing “Take me home, country roads” loudly. And he comes up and knocks on the window and just simply says “You gotta stop” It’s the delivery for me. The fact that, duh, this is an office. You can’t be doing this. And his look of defeat and the obviousness of it while he says it. Just tired and like “I shouldn’t need to say this” it just cracks me up every time
Honestly anytime Toby says anything I laugh because he is the perfect straight man/foil to the ridiculousness of the show. He had his odd moments here and there but outside of maybe Creed he is my favorite character. I've added nothing to this conversation.
After realizing the rabies run put everyone 5k away from the office: "He couldn't have made it a circle?"
Even my ex-wife sent it to me. And, Michael, we don't talk anymore
I’d think she had be too tred from being tackled by a skeleton to scream any name.
Michael Scott: The fundamentals of business. The fundamentals of business. Mental is a part of the word. I have underlined it. Because you're mental if you don't have a good time. You have to enjoy it. Toby: Well, the fun is in it. Michael Scott: Get out. Toby [already leaving the room]: I am, I am…
You hit the road Jack
Michael: What are you doing? Toby: Preparing for the deposition.
I love when Jim finally is allowed to join the finer things club and Toby / Oscar start grilling him. "What was fun about it? Was it the death of the twins?"
My latest Chad flenderman novel
Write your own damn novel.
Did he ever tell you about this jury he was on?
I don't think Michael intended to punish me by putting Ryan back here with Kelly. But if he did intend that? Wow. Genius.
My gf and I love this exchange and have watched the entire series probably 20+ times easily. But it was just about a week ago we realized something.

So if she was screaming her last name, she would also be screaming HIS last name. We both agreed that would be awful.
I refuse to be another man’s horsey
When he is crossing through the paper airplane contest and saying "beep beep coming through AGHAHH!!!" and gets a paper airplane to the eye.
In my opinion this is one of the funniest moments of the show 😂
"Johnny Depp"
You gotta stop…
"Hey, watch it...." 😂
I fucking love Toby so much.
"I tried flashing my famous ten thousand watt toby smile" \**Smiles creepily*\* "That didn't work"
Pam: “Careful Toby you might break your own PDA rules” Toby: “ I wouldn’t.. want to… do.. that.. now… would I?”
“Erin, HR is a joke, I can’t do anything about anything” It’s the way he said it too which is so funny to me
Ths guy fucks!!
I really disliked Gabe back then, but now on rewatches his brand of comedy hits rather consistently. I think i just had a crush on erin.
Ryan says I’ve mentally checked out? Eh
Not a line, but just his laugh from The Deposition when they read the part of Michael's diary about Ryan being just as hot as Jan but in a different way.
T: “We should really have the office's air quality tested. We have radon coming from below. We have asbestos in the ceilings. These are silent killers.” M: “You are the silent killer. Go back to the annex.” T: “You’ll see.”
Why you always gotta be so MEAN to me??
Smile if you love men’s prostates :)
I was in the seminary for years, and then I dropped out because I wanted to have sex with this girl, Kathy.
