Because "The Office" just understands my desire to mess with people.

Working at a mid-range paper supply company in Scranton, Pennsylvania definitely has its perks.

If you don’t already love Jim Halpert (how can you not love Jim Halpert???), here’s some of his best pranks on beet-loving, Battlestar Galactica enthusiast, Dwight K. Shrute.

1. The classic stapler stuck in Jell-O.


You can’t really go wrong with this one. It’s an absolute classic. This is where we first start to see what Jim is capable of. It made for a memorable pilot episode, and left us craving more!



2. When Jim moved Dwight’s desk into the men’s bathroom.


I mean come on, that’s GENIUS. Jim even played it off by saying “You’re the one who lost your desk.”


3. When Jim put all of Dwight’s belongings into the vending machine.



4. When Jim sent faxes to Dwight from “Future Dwight” using Dwight’s stationary.

“Dwight. At 8 AM today someone poisons the coffee. Do not drink the coffee. More instructions will follow. Cordially, Future Dwight.”


5. When Jim recreated Dwight’s outfit (for $11) and impersonated him.

“Fact. Bears eat beets. Bears, beets, Battlestar Galactica.”

6. When Jim wrapped Dwight’s desk in wrapping paper, only to later find out the desk was just cardboard.

Jim has way too much time on his hands with a prank like that. You can’t even get me to wrap Christmas presents in a reasonable amount of time.


7. When Jim got a dog dressed like Dwight to sit at Dwight’s desk.


8. When Jim tricked Dwight that he was murdered in a hotel room.

With a suitcase full of money, “IT WAS DWIGHT” written on the wall, and Jim’s seemingly dead body falling out of a closet, this has got to be one of Jim’s best pranks.


9. When Jim hired his actor friend Steve to pretend to be Jim. And when Pam went along with it.

Jim even went as far as telling Steve his sales history and phone password. He also got Pam to take professional pictures with Steve and two Asian children to frame on his desk. Jim Halpert is the king of taking things too far.


10. When he told Dwight he couldn’t be his bestest mensch – and got Michael to come instead.


Jim’s not totally insensitive to Dwight’s feelings. He called in Michael (who’d been missing for two seasons) to come to Dwight’s wedding. “Best. Prank. Ever.”



Jim Halpert and Dwight Shrute are definitely the most iconic frenemies to exist in television history.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
