Went from hating The Office to binging all 9 seasons in 3 weeks

I swore up and down that show was overrated and annoying. Then my roommate put on the episode where Jim pranks Dwight with the office in a box. I caught myself actually laughing out loud around midnight. Next thing I knew I was on season 3 by Friday. The awkward humor just clicked for me after that one scene. Now I'm the one trying to get everyone I know to watch it. Has anyone else flipped on a show they thought they'd never like?

Honestly, I was the exact same way. My buddy kept telling me I was wrong for hating it, and I was so stubborn about it. Then he played the episode where Michael tries to give everyone a surprise party but nobody cares. I thought it was dumb but I couldnt stop watching after that. By the end of the first season I was already ordering pizza and telling him to keep it going. It just clicks one day and then you cant go back.

My friend Jenna went through this exact thing. She swore she'd never watch it because she thought it was just another boring office show. Then her brother made her watch the fire drill episode and she said she laughed so hard she choked on her drink. Next thing I know, she's texting me at midnight asking if I know what "that's what she said" means. Now she owns three Dwight Schrute t-shirts and has a picture of Jim's face on her phone case. Completely lost cause after that.

Ordering pizza for it is peak dedication, but did you at least get your favorite toppings?
