Eh. He's all right when he's a secondary character and type-cast as an annoying douche. The problems start when he stars in things.

He'd really like to "splooge on her face," if you catch my drift.

While I appreciate the sentiment, need I remind you that Parks & Recreation was first pitched as an Office spin-off?

This makes me so angry, I'm going to say I'm not going to watch the Oscars, then watch them and make snide remarks like I do every year!
