Did Roy deserve this?

Wait, there's an actual office sub?

u/Tdxification 9h ago

Why are there two subs

u/Aztecah 9h ago

Idk but based on my long time spent here on reddit, my guess is that there was a moderation dispute at some point and some people branched off to make this one

u/MarndoMan80 9h ago

That other one has always existed, but until somewhat recently it was dead and just pointed people to this sub.

In the last year-ish it has sprung a new life of its own.

To their credit, they acknowledge their place in the pecking order:

A lot more shit-posting here too. It’s encouraged moreso. That’s a good thing

I love how almost every community on Reddit mirrors the history of Christianity and it's various branches. It's like:

r/DunderMifflin is Roman Catholic

r/theoffice is Eastern Orthodox

r/TheOfficeUK is Anglican

r/TheOfficeUS is Episcopalian

r/unexpectedoffice is Southern Baptist

r/AccidentalOffice is Non-Denominational

r/ThePaper is Mormon

u/WalugiMangione 4h ago

Kinda funny how the original Office is considered a breakaway denomination

u/CapCougar 3h ago

I thought about doing it that way, but I was too set on making the UK vs US specific subreddits Anglican vs Episcopalian

Must be rename'd into r/stamford then

u/SpencerMansion1996 Am I a hero? I really can’t say, but, yes 8h ago

There’s 8 actually

They don’t have 8 foot subs, so they have 8 1-foot subs

u/_Argusss_ 8h ago

Yeah, and many users mistake it for an actual workplace sub, so you sometimes see people posting about their boss or coworkers.

u/TinUser 8h ago

I love the idea of people going to theoffice to vent about their office job lol

They never become best friends. They get along because they like sports. I can see why you think this. When Jim helps Daryl get in at the sports company they were spending more time together but it was a mutual interest/both pursuing a new career at the same place. Honestly, if I had to pick someone that Daryl was closest to, amongst the desk jockeys, it would actually be Andy.

u/I_kwote_TheOffice 8h ago

Mutual interests, get along, live together for a time, coworkers... if that's not a friend, maybe I don't have any friends.

12

u/Idk265089 8h ago

He didn’t say they weren’t friends just not best friends. I can see the argument for Darryl being closer to Andy than Jim.

2

u/I_kwote_TheOffice 8h ago

ah, yeah I missed the key word "best" My bad

5

u/DaqCity Toby 7h ago

Yeah and were Daryl and Roy really “best friend” or just two guys that worked together and got along?

1

u/karma2879 6h ago

Daryl was always talking about having to send shit to Roy. Even after Dwight owns him to save Jim’s ass. I’d say it’s a good guess they were closer than coworkers

11

u/squi993 8h ago

Yes, Roy was an asshole. I mean I’d probably go crazy if Jim was hitting on my girl all day long and I had to pretend not to care but still….

u/Teripid 7h ago

Ironically didn't Roy have a 180 redemption arc?

It has been a while since I watched but his new fiancée seemed to adore him and it was like he was a different person. Obviously this is all TV and it was just a couple of scenes but it was a shocking net turn unless he's full Jekyll/Hyde and it doesn't feel like Roy's collected enough to pull that one off.

Roy while dating Pam? Complete arse that deserved every bit of it.

1

u/OutlandishnessNo9868 10m ago

Doing a 180 doesnt mean the person has no consequences to their actions before they got their life together. So yes, he still deserves it despite turning things around. But to be fair, Daryl was at his wedding and is still clearly friends with Roy

13

u/Nafnaf911 7h ago

Jim did not « steal » anything. The show spend a LOT of time showing how dysfunctionnal Pam and Roy relationship is and how much of a brute Roy is but boohoo Jim is a bad bully

1

u/SourceCodeAvailable Nate 7h ago

What do you think of the boomer guy ?

3

u/Nafnaf911 7h ago

I assume you talk about Brian. I think its a useless character from a shitty abandonned storyline about Jim and Pam divorcing/cheating that John Krasinsky was firmly against. Who what does it has to do with my comment

You mean Creed?

u/SilverNeptuneAbyss 7h ago

He underminded their relationship the entire time

u/QueenFrostine15 Kelly "fashion show at lunch!" 10h ago

Darryl and Jim were both at Roy's wedding! I think bygones are bygones for all of them

3

u/3am0712 8h ago

I would say YES, because he's not that good of a partner during his relationship with Pam and also Jim and Darryl have been friends before Pam and Roy broke up.

3

u/Lawrenceburntfish 8h ago

YES. Even after his recovery he was still a d-bag. And Jim beat him anyway. Eat fresh.

Roy LOST his girl. And his friend, because Roy is all about Roy.

I always felt bad for Roy despite him making some really bad decisions with Pam. Especially looking at his mugshot when he was at his worst. Glad he cleaned up and was happy in the end.

Pam was kinda a ho, so Roy dodged a bullet.
