The 10 Funniest Quotes from 'The Office'
NBC Universal

The folks at Dunder Mifflin blessed us with comedic gold for nine whole seasons, so picking the 10 best quotes is no easy task. From Michael's hatred for Toby to Creed's episode-stealing appearances, there are certainly plenty of moments to chose from. But which lines made us laugh the most? Make no mistake, this is the definitive list of the best lines from the greatest show ever made.

10. "I have herpes." - Michael Scott

Season 7/Episode 4: "Sex Ed"

When Michael finds out he has what appears to be a cold sore on his lip, he decides to track down all of his past lovers to find out who gave him "herpes." While all of the encounters are hilarious, Michael telling Jan about his situation is easily the highlight.

9. "Northern Lights Cannabis Indica" - Creed Bratton

Season 2/Episode 20: "Drug Testing"

When Dwight finds a half smoked joint in the office parking lot, he interviews all of his coworkers to find the culprit. But none of them had as good of a response as Creed.

8. "You're going to h-e-l-l-double hockey sticks. You're going to hell Stanley." - Michael Scott

Season 6/Episode 13: "Secret Santa"

After Michael gets upset that Phyllis will be the office Santa this year, he dresses up as Jesus Christ himself before bringing down comedic judgment on his coworkers.

7. "Dwight, you ignorant slut." - Michael Scott

Season 3/Episode 20: "Safety Training"

Michael tries to convince the office and warehouse workers that an office space can be dangerous due to depression, but his speech is quickly revealed to be a routine him and Dwight set up.

6. "That's what she said." - Michael Scott

Season 9/Episode 25: "Finale"

Everyone knew that Michael Scott had to make an appearance on the show's finale, and this was the perfect way to bring back everyone's favorite boss. This quote is also used throughout the series as Michael's go to joke, but I think this is the best use of the line.

5. "Why are you the way that you are?" - Michael Scott

Season 2/Episode 22: "Casino Night"

Michael and Toby have never gotten along, but when Toby explains why he didn't invite the boy scouts to attend the office's casino night we get to see Michael's best retaliation.

4. "Three words. Hard working, alpha male, jackhammer." - Dwight Schrute

Season 3/Episode 14: "The Return"

After Dwight resigns due to a lack of trust from Michael, we finally get to see what he would be like in a job interview. Seems pretty qualified to me.

3. "I'm not superstitious... but I am a little-stitious." - Michael Scott

Season 4/Episode 1: "Fun Run"

After Michael runs over Meredith in the parking lot and Dwight kills Angela's cat, the only obvious explanation is that a curse has been put on the office. And, of course, Michael sees it as his job to remove the bad omen.

2. "Boot, Rally" - Andy Bernard

Season 5/Episode 11: "Moroccan Christmas"

Andy loves reminiscing on his college days at Cornell, but no scene shows that better than this one. This is more of a monologue than just a line or two, so I may be cheating, but it absolutely deserves to be this high on the list. Also, Andy's face at the beginning of this scene is incredible.

1. "Bears. Beets. Battlestar Galactica." - Jim Halpert

Season 3/Episode 21: "Product Recall"

The best opening scene from the entire show. This is my favorite Dwight vs. Jim moment and it still makes me laugh every time. This line is not only hilarious, but possibly the most iconic from the whole series, which puts it at the top of my list.

I know there are tons of people out there who love "The Office" just as much as I do and I hope this allows you to relive some of the funniest moments this wonderful show has to offer!

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.

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
