A Definitive Ranking Of The Main Couples From "The Office"
skynetblogs.be

The Office gave us some of T.V.'s most amazing moments. It gave us unrealistic expectations of workplace relationships. It gave us impractical ideas about the humor level of most bosses. But mostly, it gave us some of the best couples on television. Here's a definitive ranking of all the main couples on The Office.

12. Jan Levenson and Michael Scott

Yeah this couple was pretty much the worst. Jan was manipulating and controlling, and their fight during their dinner party was one of the most uncomfortable moments on the show to watch. And Jan was the woman that made Michael get three vasectomies. SNIP SNAP SNIP SNAP.

11. Erin Hannon and Gabe Lewis

I hate to put Erin so close to the bottom of the list, simply because I love her and her sheer adorableness. But as much as I love Erin, I hate Gabe. He just really bugged me, and everything about him was boring. And I was still holding out for Andy and Erin (which I'll get to later). So, for that reason, Erin and Gabe earn themselves the eleventh spot on this list.

10. Angela Martin and Robert Lipton

Ahhhhh, "The Senator". This relationship ended because Robert was gay, but not before the couple got married and Angela had a baby. But this couple takes the tenth spot on the list mostly because Robert just seemed so irrelevant. Moving on.

9. Pam Beesly and Roy Anderson

You may assume I put this couple here simply because Roy wasn't Jim. Well, you would be mostly right. But, in general, Roy was just a crappy character. He didn't support Pam's art, he wasn't a great boyfriend, and the two just weren't right for each other. But mostly he wasn't Jim.

8. Jim Halpert and Karen Filippelli

Just like Roy wasn't Jim, Karen wasn't Pam. Enough said.

7. Angela Martin and Andy Bernard

This was an odd couple, but, for some reason, I liked it. Andy really did try his best to make Angela happy, but, in the end, they were just better with other people.

6. Phyllis and Bob Vance

These two brought together two very important businesses in the Scranton Business Park. Their wedding was cute, and they genuinely loved each other.

5. Kelly Kapoor and Ryan Howard

This couple worked because they were both kind of crazy, but their level of crazy matched, and I loved it. And the fact that the actors are best friends in real life made their performances so much more real and genuine.

4. Andy Bernard and Erin Hannon

Still upset that this couple didn't end up together. *Sigh*. The beginning of their relationship was so sweet and innocent, and it gave us some great moments on the show. Remember when Andy literally gave Erin the 12 Days Of Christmas for Secret Santa? SO. FREAKING. CUTE.

3. Angela Martin and Dwight Schrute

We waited nine seasons for this couple to finally make it. NINE SEASONS. But it was so worth it. Angela and Dwight were set up to get together early on, but faced many obstacles throughout the show. A dead cat, a pregnancy contract, and a gay senator to name a few. But, in the end, Dwight was finally able to express to Angela how much he loved her by proposing to her on the side of a rode with a bullhorn. And we all loved it.

2. Michael Scott and Holly Flax


This couple was the epitome of the whole "Be with someone who makes you laugh" saying. Michael and Holly understood each other, and were great from the minute they started dating. Even when she left for the Nashua branch, Michael knew he just had to wait for her, and she'd find her way back to him. And she did. And they had one of the best proposals on T.V., in the office that started it all.

1. Jim Halpert and Pam Beesly (Obviously)

I mean, did you honestly expect anyone else to take the top ranking? From the minute the show began, we were rooting for them to get together. It was agonizing to watch Jim fall for Pam first, then for Pam to call off her engagement only for Jim to begin dating Karen. And then it finally happened, and audiences loved it. Perhaps it was because their situation was so relatable to many viewers. They were best friends who became husband and wife. The actors had such great chemistry, and the result was honest, realistic, wonderful television magic.

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.

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.
