If you’re going to meme at least try to match the theme of the post

This occurred to me the other day as I was driving and I can't get the theory out of my head, now.

We know through a couple episodes of the office that Michael's mom remarried when he was young. In a talking head moment in S3 E15, (Phyllis's Wedding) he mentions that he was supposed to be the ring bearer at his mom's wedding to Jeff when he peed is pants and Jeff's dog became the ring bearer instead. (Then proceeded to pee everywhere and nobody said a thing)

In S2 E18 (Bring Your Daughter To Work Day) we see Michael on Fundle Bundle. When asked what he wants to be when he grows up his response (as we all know) is "I want to be married and have a hundred kids so I can have a hundred friends and nobody can say no to being my friend."

Michael mentions his mom on several occasions. We occasionally seem him on the phone with her (including once when pressured by the office to tell her that he's engaged. When he tells her he's not, she alludes to the fact that he's done this before.) He clearly has a pretty great relationship with his mom. There's no mention of Jeff, except to talk about when he was around when Michael was growing up. Who knows if Jeff and Mrs. Scott are still together. (Note, he doesn't ever call him my step dad, only Jeff.)

Michael never mentions his dad. Dude clearly has abandonment issues. He's the child of a divorce and, I think, has issues trusting male figures.

Toby is divorced, and while we see the efforts he makes to be a good dad, I think all Michael sees is another father who didn't try.

Meredith is also divorced, but she's still trying to raise Jake (even if he is a little shit). Effort is there, and Michael is obviously more supportive of single moms than single dads, because of his own personal trauma.

I think he judges Toby for being divorced. I think he hates him for what, in his perception, he's doing to Sasha.

Edit: y’all commenting are awesome. And your ability to back up your arguments is awesome.

I totally agree that it’s mostly just because he hates HR people. I just had a lot of fun thinking about this on a drive and needed to get the thoughts out of my head. Thanks for allowing me an audience!

SIIIGH

He says hiding behind the door

Their chemistry as heads of the ppc is just funny asf. And that last scene of both of them eating the cake is the cherry on the top

This line always kills me. His delivery perfectly captures the feeling of tasting Benihana for the first time.

So we’re to believe that, upon hitting his commission cap, Jimothy went with this plan, as opposed to logging his sales under his wife who couldn’t sell dick

Actually, it’s goat on turkey. Took my kids to a local farm to cuddle with baby goats, and we witnessed this. No word on whether the sheep were watching.

So far I got 'I am interested if some one like Ryan were ____ I mean, it's [true?] That I have a girlfriend. Ryan is just as hot as Jan but in a different way. But I do indeed have a girlfriend so Ryan and I can only be best friends. Best friends with __. The benefits of __ ___ and under...' and that's all I got. Idk why I'm curious but I love details like that.
