Why are you the way that you are? Honestly, every time I try to do something fun or exciting, you make it not... that way. I hate so much about the things that you choose to be.   Start rubbin' those rabbit's feet, paper people. Dan and Rob are dusting off their lucky pair of underwear (only one pair, don't judge), because we're going mach five to Casino Night at our favorite Scranton office park for the Season Two finale.

I am ridiculously anti-drug. So anti-drug that I am above suspicion in any way that involves suspicion, or testing of any kind.   Make sure you're hydrated, paper people, because today we administer (season 2 epiosde 21 of The Office) Drug Testing. It has to be official, and it has to be urine. Rob and Dan smoke a doobie before this episode, as one does with their brothers and even discuss drug tests from their past. This episode is really a lot like urine, it just kind of goes everywhere. You can't control it.   Jenna Fischer Dundie Tribute   Social Media Twitter Facebook Email

And now, a very special treat... a book my Grandmutter used to read me when I was a kid. This is a very special story, it's called Struwwelpeter, by Heinrich Hoffman from 1864.

'And 'ere they dream when he's about, he takes his great sharp scissors out, and then cuts their thumbs clean off!'   Whatcha lookin' for, paper people? Ain't nobody gonna help you out there!

Why would somebody ruin a perfectly good carpet? I don't know. It could be done out of hate. It could be done out of love. It could be completely neutral. Maybe somebody hates the cleaning lady.

The format shifts slightly with the new episode as the show's pacing and style changes and scenes are given a slightly less detailed approach to allow for more exploration of jokes and shifting character dynamics, and of course, irrelevant tangents.
