This is probably in my top 10 of all movies and #1 in comedy I think.

Where does this rank for everyone?
Favorite quotes?

Peter Gibbons: So I was sitting in my cubicle today, and I realized, ever since I started working, every single day of my life has been worse than the day before it. So that means that every single day that you see me, that's on the worst day of my life.

Dr. Swanson: What about today? Is today the worst day of your life?

Peter Gibbons: Yeah.

Dr. Swanson: Wow, that's messed up.

Peter Gibbons: Let me ask you something. When you come in on Monday and you're not feeling real well, does anyone ever say to you, "Sounds like someone has a case of the Mondays?"

Lawrence: No. No, man. Shit, no, man. I believe you'd get your ass kicked sayin' something like that, man.

Dom Portwood: Hi, Peter. What's happening? We need to talk about your TPS reports.

Peter Gibbons: Yeah. The coversheet. I know, I know. Uh, Bill talked to me about it.

Dom Portwood: Yeah. Did you get that memo?

Peter Gibbons: Yeah. I got the memo. And I understand the policy. And the problem is just that I forgot the one time. And I've already taken care of it so it's not even really a problem anymore.

Dom Portwood: Ah! Yeah. It's just we're putting new coversheets on all the TPS reports before they go out now. So if you could go ahead and try to remember to do that from now on, that'd be great. All right!

Peter Gibbons (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0515296/?ref_=tt_trv_qu): What would you do if you had a million dollars?
Lawrence (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0046033/?ref_=tt_trv_qu): I'll tell you what I'd do, man: two chicks at the same time, man.
Peter Gibbons (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0515296/?ref_=tt_trv_qu): That's it? If you had a million dollars, you'd do two chicks at the same time?
Lawrence (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0046033/?ref_=tt_trv_qu): Damn straight. I always wanted to do that, man. And I think if I were a millionaire I could hook that up, too; 'cause chicks dig dudes with money.
Peter Gibbons (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0515296/?ref_=tt_trv_qu): Well, not all chicks.
Lawrence (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0046033/?ref_=tt_trv_qu): Well, the type of chicks that'd double up on a dude like me do.

Mike Judge with the goods.. Office Space is a classic

"Lumbergh fucked her."

Mike Judge must've worked in an office before because he nailed some of that shit. All the little inner-office politics and shit was perfect. In fact around the same time that movie came out I was working for a company that had hired an outside consultant (for an obscene amount of money) who was interviewing people trying to see where they could save some money. The company was extremely top heavy with management, but none of those positions were eliminated. Only lower level dudes (with billable hours) were let go. Of course they folded not long after.

But the TPS report conversations, the office party, and even the little office meeting about changing work order codes or some shit (wasn't a major scene, Peter was just walking by IIRC) was all golden.

It works pretty good till he "quits" --- then it loses it's way, doesn't know what to do with itself. I always turn it off at that part.

Has anyone else used the term "TPS Report" in real life every time your boss asks you to do something stupid? I did it with my old boss all the time and she fucking hated it :lol

Funny this thread came up today...I had a total Michael Bolton moment this afternoon. I was out on the patio at my local draft house and this kid rolls by in a small SUV...like a Blazer or something. He's a ginger, so he's really, really white with a red fro. He's probably 20 years old. Then I hear some intro music come loudly from his vehicle...it's unmistakable...Born Killa by Scarface. As he rolls further past I hear Brad..."Imma born killa, your face to face with Scarface...":lol

Can kind of agree with this. The whole hypnosis thing and planting a virus are my least favorite parts.

My favorite part of the movie is when the chick is doing the breast exam and the neighbor is yelling through the wall for Peter to check it out. I thought you'd wanna see this. :lol

Either that, or when Michael Bolton turns down his geto boys tape when the black flower salesman walks by his car.

I have biz with many of these nerds at their IT comlanies. And offices are just like the movie. Its amazing how close to life it is. Bosses are like lunberg and they really have a thing called TPS report.

its an IT nerds bible IMO. Ive seen it no less than 20 times.

I completely disagree that it loses itself halfway. Its a complete classic

^This. When I first saw it I was a developer at USAA working in a sea of cubicles with a bunch of business major "managers" who were fucking idiots. Laughed my ass off then and still do every time I see it. Absolutely a classic.

Do it like this [ youtube ]123456[ /youtube]

The numbers represent the code that follows the = sign, so for this link:

it would be qzG-BXPrIlk for the code.
