Ping seems FARRR worst than that.

ping is gross. but there's not a person behind that being made to feel uncomfortable. just the viewer, and probably steve carell himself who i'm sure had to have a "are you fucking serious" conversation with the writers

They even show an offended Asian customer's disgusted face to show how horribly offensive he's being.

Actors should only play roles that make them comfy and have warm feelings! Nothing negative can ever be shown in movies or shows because it might make some actors feel icky.

I actually thought the show did a pretty good job of showing how the waitresses are basically normal people being airdropped into this weirdo's world for a night. Though it's easy to believe she felt the way she did on set and afterwards given what she experienced.

That said, I hate to "ackshually it's a porn addiction" the conversation but the episode has always made me feel uncomfortable because of it's... Misogyny I guess is the word? What made these young women follow this drunk old creep in the first place?

Or is hating on The Office the new cool edgy thing to do now?
