this is a relatively nerdy office, I would say

varying types of nerdery, I’ve seen sully wearing fallout shirts but also he had a dunder mifflin one once lmao and it’s largely like the Roughly My Age Bracket universal experience of harry potter etc

there’s at least one other weeb in here (and he sits next to me)

lots of pop figures on people’s desks etc and a kind of common/at-least-cursory knowledge of like, popular nerd stuff and things like the office, game of thrones, lotr, and so on

anyway this chick (my age exactly) has never seen or read any hp, which obviously not EVERYONE has but it got everybody kinda like “wait what”

and she followed up the admission with “I did see twilight though!”

uncomfortable murmuring ensues, anthony just “no that’s trash” (and he’s been helping train her so it wasn’t out of line for their rapport)

today it was “there’s a movie called office space?”
sully: “what”

“do people like it?”
“everybody likes that movie, human beings like that movie”

like I haven’t seen it either tbh but I knew it existed bc it’s so entrenched in the pop culture knowledge collective lmao

but she keeps revealing that she has literally zero knowledge of/has not heard of things that the rest of us here are at least aware of

and I feel bad bc it’s so out of step with the culture here
