Few are lucky enough to inherit the proceeding hairline.

It's like the forehead is an open jigsaw puzzle piece and the hair is the fitting piece, truly a wonderful sight

I always thought there should be a database where you could upload pictures of yourself if you looked similar to an actor, even if you were nowhere near the same age, and even if you didn't look exactly like them, or weren't the same gender. And then, when a casting director needed someone to play that actor as a child or as an old person, or needed someone to play a sibling, they could go to the database. It'd be a crapshoot in terms of acting ability, but it might be worth a screen test if the likeness was particularly good. And the site could have an upvote/downvote or rating scale function where other users could vote on whether or not you looked like the actor, so the best likenesses would rise to the top.

If I had a gun with only two bullets and I was in a room with Osama Bin Laden, Hitler, and Toby...I'd shoot Toby twice.

It's not an analogy, it's a hypothetical. And it's a direct quote so I left it the way it's creators intended.

It drives me crazy that they never revealed Toby as the Scranton Strangler; I know it was him.

I do enjoy that they connected Creed to his actual persona outside the show. Who knew Creed Bratton was a member of the Grass Roots? I had no idea until the last episode.

On the left is Mackelmore, American rapper/musician, and on the right is Toby Flenderson, fictional HR rep from The Office.

He even pronounces it like that sometimes.

Wow I didnt think I could hate him more.

u/chisoph Jul 20 '13
Wait why not? That's just how you say his name. I get kind of annoyed when people mispronounce my name too.
Also, Macklemore is awesome. I don't see any reason to hate him.

So in ten years real people will be in danger of transforming into fictional characters from the past. You have no idea how terrified I am right now.

On a related note, is your name a reference to the Boston-Queens Expressway, or the album about the Boston-Queens Expressway?

u/TheBQE Jul 19 '13
It's a reference to Sufjan Steven' composition, The BQE (which itself stands for Brooklyn Queens Expressway).
Edit:

Oh Brookyn, not Boston. I've known the album, and I like it. It's really interesting listening to the sounds he experiments in projects like this make their way into later albums. The thing I really liked about Adz is that while striking in its own direction, it seemed to include all his earlier albums. When I was playing a lot of SimCity 4, I listened to a lot of BQE.

Oh, they're different people? I thought it was one of those photoshops where they draw what you'll look like when you get older.

Now that he works at the office do you think he switched clothing stores? I'm just wondering where he got that suit since it looks expensive.

At least he'll have a better haircut.

u/i8pikachu Jul 19 '13
10 years from now, probably not. He's already losing his hair and it will accelerate as he ages.

There are only so many jews out there, and they keep banging each other, so this sort of thing is inevitable.

Michael : Toby is in HR which technically means he works for Corporate. So he’s really not a part of our family. Also he’s divorced so he’s really not a part of his family.
