The stuff about "TPS reports" is a direct parody of the exact joke from Office Space. Felt more like The Office to me. Would also make more sense because it's much more relatable to for most. Office Space is from 1999. The Office has been airing for 7 seasons in the US alone. Also what someone said earlier. That guy does look exactly like BJ.Novak. The Intro, with the wobbly camera, taking a "scenic" shot of the office. It's like the parking space. And there is no actual punchline, it's like "dry" humor. Which is exactly what would be the one typical The Office thing. Edit: Also the bland phone rings in the otherwise silent background, looking into the camera with a reaction expressing. I liked it, hope there's follow ups. Says episode 1 in the title :O | ||

iNcontrol then asks for larger diamonds, which is funny because the thought of any sized diamond being embedded in a RAM stick is absurd, let alone using it to file your nails. The TPS Reports joke was a spook from the movie Office Space. If TPS Reports were ever mentioned in the TV show series The Office, it was also because of Office Space. | ||

Kingston supports EG so much that they get diamonds embedded in their RAM sticks, which iNcontrol was using to file is nails.. iNcontrol then asks for larger diamonds, which is funny because the thought of any sized diamond being embedded in a RAM stick is absurd, let alone using it to file your nails. The TPS Reports joke was a spook from the movie Office Space. If TPS Reports were ever mentioned in the TV show series The Office, it was also because of Office Space. Just because a TPS report is mentioned, doesn't make the whole clip or the joke a derivitave of one particular thing. In the same light, all the criteria I felt the clip adheres to don't make it another particular thing either. I just think it's not ok to just claim that it was from something. Especially since so many people, me included, don't actually get it. So yes maybe I'm totally wrong, but I even consulted google and youtube to find clips of this joke, and all I found was a qoute of the Office Space, where indeed TPS reports are mentioned, yet there is no other similarity. To add, a TPS report is an actual defined thing. It's not something made up and therefore also isn't exclusive to some kind of comedic setting. | ||
