If the writers of The Office had any maturity or were trying to do anything but please female viewers, Jim Halpert would be with Rashida Jones and not Pam Beasly.
The reason girls think Jim and Pam have the perfect relationship is because Jim is always making sacrifices and doing stuff for Pam, and without reciprocity. Pam basically treated Jim like a floormat. For example, every time Pam gets inappropriately drunk, Jim is taking care of her and taking her home. Every time Pam is in a bad mood, Jim is cheering her up. It is all one sided. Pam never did anything for Jim except be an attractive and fun girl that he worked with and got along with. Also, take the example of when Pam jinxed Jim and wouldn't let him talk all day because the machine was out of Coca-Cola. Who would date that?
Then Jim met Rashida Jones. This chick had her stuff all figured out to begin with. She wasn't a useless secretary who had big dreams of becoming a graphic artist. She was already in sales, unlike Pam who just made it to sales and has no business being there. Then she took over as manager. When they dated Rashida Jones actually took care of Jim, did things for him. For example, when Jim got innapropriately drunk, Rashida Jones took care of him and took him home.
So, to all the women out there, Jim is not cool, he is a useless putz. Jim doesn't deserve Rashida Jones, because what he really wants in a relationship is to wait hand and foot masochistically on a woman who doesn't treat him with respect and is less hot and never acted in Stella or Freaks and Geeks. And while I'm on it, Jim never deserved this promotion. Dwight has worked his hands to the bone sacrificing for the company. He was the leading salesman for the entire company. Jim was too cool for school and to give a hoot about his job. Worse yet, Jim convinced his company to overpay in a related party transaction for a company his fiancee worked for, which is illegal. So no, the guys who work hard, Dwight, Andy, or Stan, deserve the promotion, not the dumb idiot who thinks he is too good to work for the company in the first place. (Also, they just started making Dwight too stupid. For example, he wanted to smoke out Michael with bees or something?)
Jim, you suck, and the only reason you are popular is because girls are stupid.

Capital_Prototype strikes gold again. This needed to be written down even though we have been harboring the feelings for some time.
ReplyDeleteThis is also a precursor to my future post about the ideal woman on tv.
ReplyDeleteDumb female perspective:
ReplyDelete"You're just jealous because Pam is still on the show and Rashida Jones got kicked off. You just wanted to stare at her big forehead because you think that it is hot. You lost, Pam wins and you don't actually want to try in a relationship like Jim and because you are lazy and do not want to do anything that is nice or sweet."
