The Office Takes a Shot At Facebook

[bluepolarbear]

come on guys, this is some funny shit. admit it.

[laurensreinds]

Dumbasses...

[BellaSolveig]

@RealityCheck6T9 That's what makes it so funny. Every show's got different things going for it.

[RealityCheck6T9]

This is the trouble with the US version of the Office, everything that happens in it is so TRIVIAL, and Pam's the worst character for that. I remember one episode when everyone in the office was watching a computer logo bounce round the screen and waiting it to go into the corner. Get a fuckin life, will you?

[umgolem50k]

@RealityCheck6T9 I actually loved that scene so much, because our old DVD player had a screensaver like this and i also hoped for it to go right into the corner.

I just love it, when somebody takes something i thought, only i did like little mannerisms or games i play in my mind and turns it into a scene.

In that case it was just spot on. It's funny what people have in common, that they don't notice.

[sammiedwards97]

@RealityCheck6T9 uummm thats why its funny? idiot....if you dont watch the show all the time it doesnt make sense so dont say crap if you dont know what your talking about....

[kushedup313]

@sammiedwards97 lol owned

[RealityCheck6T9]

@sammiedwards97 I've watched several seasons of the show so I'm in a position to comment. And it's funny because it's trivial? Whatever dude

[bluepolarbear]

@RealityCheck6T9 it is pretty hilariouse. lol

[embuurr]

who actually cares? once you adopt the mentality of "don't put up anything you wouldn't mind the whole world seeing" you don't have these problems. it's when people are naive enough to think they can post personal info online and think they can keep it private that these things happen....

[fallen4life080]

Dont get it probably cuz i hate facebook and social networking (besides youtube). Never had a FB and never will, i could just group text people and nobody else has to see it. In fact Google+ is better than FB.

[soccercutie915]

@fallen4life080 im not defending it im just saying if youve never had one how would you know?

[fallen4life080]

@soccercutie915 In High school most of my closest friends were on it 24/7, even when we hung out. So i was pretty much exposed to how it works, what it does, etc. To each their own, thats fine, i admit FB has its social benefits, but they're not significant enough for me to have one, and sadly a lot of people are TOO addicted to it.

[travis8352]

ive never seen this episode

[lefarce]

Glad I stopped watching the office. "Boy oh boy, Facebook has bad privacy policies, and hey look a picture of a CUTE BABY teehee."

[GovGoose]

Facebook sucks anyway now, Google+ :D

[adidaskorn12345]

lol, "friend of a friend" Privacy issues; nice find!.... can anyone teach me?

[dovahkiin516]

PB&J!

[Maxioff]

come again, creed?

[SLAW3LL]

I GET IT!!!!

[mikeyYvang]

LOL love the comments on this video. sajanparikh im guessing office fans find it funny and fb addicts are hurt. #facebookstalking #noshame

[iwantsquareballoons]

bunch of facebook whores in here

[zimmawoman]

it bothers me that pam didn't first check her notifications and messages when she logged in

[YourPalHDee]

What in God's name has happened to the comment section of this video?

[SajanParikh]

Wow. It's unbelievable how far above everyone's head the joke in the video went. Did not realize when I uploaded this that nobody would get it.

[musiceditorguy]

@SajanParikh Unless I'm missing some really complex joke, I think everyone may be thinking too hard about it, and assuming that there is a joke other than the 'friend of a friend' line. It's more like under the radar than over everyone's heads.

[NatteHanddoek]

how do you print till the corners? Like on this video

[yam3sam]

oo i get how relevant this is



[tutorialbs]

All sites will try to get you to default to low privacy settings because it's in their benefit to do so (ex: ads specific to you) they don't give a damn about you or your concerns and are only deterred by restrictions/regulations. Watch out for google (ALL of google) to do this even more in the near future.

[tashaMELY]

i thought your username said Sarah Palin.

[zzzaaazzz55]

i dont know whats funnier- the clip or the fact that pam uses internet explorer

[zcmini000]

Dislike because it has nothing to do with "taking a shot a Facebook"?

Or Like because it is The Office, and The Office is hilarious?

[2r3notgoodas1]

Reminded me of Terminator 2 clip. when sarah conner is shown pictures of arnold at the mall.

[volleyballmaniacz]

its cece...shes never gonna do anything wrong hehe

[bugeyefool]

why don't you check your notifications Pam?! i liked something!

[B1Gtet]

I think you meant OF Facebook

[batmandannyb]

"CC--- she's never gonna do anything wrong."

[ambiguousMAN]

Who the hell prints out screenshots of the WHOLE screen

[bobolob]

@ambiguousMAN Pam...

[BonhamRox]

@ambiguousMAN Pam

[ab182644]

@zblueshell14 when she says "so it turns out donna and I have a facebook friend of a friend in common so I was able to see some of her pictures online".

[Ghostcrown1]

your black

[JosephAdamDaniels]

It's was a shot at Facebook saying the website has no privacy.

[Ghostcrown1]

its okay cause im yellow

[Ghostcrown1]

im black

[ku42]

@Ghostcrown1 im purple 

[Dubs427]

@Ghostcrown1 sorry

[noisyrag2]

Not a shot. It was advertisement.

[cuteso9]

what episode is this? XD

[BestShamburger]

@zblueshell14

"facebook friend of a friend in common"

...and she got to view those pictures. It's a shot at fb and its PRIVACY ISSUE

[nsd1901]

pam's adorable

[Qoppa1]

I think the uploader might be bipolar.

[MrManeten]

@Qoppa1 true that

[mykicks2]

Nice haha...i NEVER get any likes or notifications on my FB in fact I only have a few pics..some from like over 2 years old lol

My last Update was "X-Men 1st Class was...First Class" from June 3 2011 haha

ANd i dont take indirect shots at someone or express my discuss to an anonymous NO ONE. Or post an confusing updates to get comments or Likes lol...dude i only have 45 people and its all REAL friends and family BAAAAAAAAAM!!!

Facebook Privacy is BEAT haha

ANYONE can get around XD

[Nirvalica]

@mykicks2 Makes you sound like a loser without friends. I wouldn't go around telling people all of that.

[TheDoc4Wellness]

@Nirvalica no, @mykicks2 is right. if you dont want your privacy in jeopardy, don't have hundreds of digital friends. and calling someone a looser because they are not popular on the internet holds some level of irony..

[mykicks2]

@Nirvalica Just saw a McDonalds commercial where he took a pic of some fries n uploaded and is DESPERATLY waiting for Likes n Comments

[ellomynameiscaroline]

anyone see the username???

[survival3three]

oh man i love pam- the perfect woman

[domclarke92]

uploader is full of shit

[TheBrOrY1]

@TheNortherner55 all notifications are probably from michael lolol

[reinux]

if you think this is a shot at facebook, then you're really narrow sighted.

[KingDavidANC]

I'm trying to figure out why she would use printscreen instead of just printing the page...

[dewddarwin]

Ahhhhh,I love Pam... <3

[912pinkturtle]

what kind of printer did she use? high-quality stuff

[KingDavidANC]

@912pinkturtle It looks like a laserjet to me.

[25823666]

Why would she stalk a person she doesn't even know before checking that message and notification??

[WillandJesse]

Why would....Donna have photos of her kissing both her husband and Michael on her facebook? Wtf?

[soccerscott5]

that's cece...she's never gonna do anything wrong

[bingoSK9]

you guys are retards for not getting this. this is brilliant humor, not some sitcom bullshit where they tell you when to laugh

[terryshiavoftw]

This isn't a shot at FB. Retard.

[314geekman]

@terryshiavoftw Calm down there. Before you call people retards, think first. This WAS a shot a facebook, with it's privacy issues, as stated in the description. It seems a bit asinine to insult somebody who was correct in the first place.

[terryshiavoftw]

@314geekman Interesting that you create conspiracy situations that simply don't exist in the first place. Not everything has to be a reference to something else, let alone a "shot." It was a necessity to keep the plot moving, not a subliminal insult to a rival company (who isn't even a rival).

Nice try though, buddy!

[314geekman]

@terryshiavoftw I don't see how I was 'creating conspiracy situations.'

No matter what it was about, some people can take offense to calling them retarded. Not that you don't have the right to say that, but, seriously. Would it hurt to point something out in a polite way?

About the 'shot' at facebook, I thought it was a rather blatant poke (no pun intented) at the fact that the character was able to get the private pictures just because she had a 'friend of a friend' in common.

[314geekman]

@314geekman

What she said right there is a major privacy concern among many people who use facebook. I, and probably several other people watching the video recognized this and laughed.

Also, I never claimed that they are 'rival' companies. This is a comedy show, and there job is to make fun of stuff to make people laugh. Other shows do it all the time. I believe that they were worded that way for the joke of it. Just like half the other shows out there.

[tomaperson]

pam! PAM PAM

[TheRCat]

fb got burned

[redmond]

It bothers me that she uses Internet Explorer

[Mcheetah]

Who was Donna again? That Julianna Margulies looking chick who owned the arcade?

[123FishCrazy]

@Mcheetah Yeahy, that bar/arcade thing where Michael was trying to be Date Mike. The manager from there is Donna. :P

[jonadamich]

I doubt it''s a jab at facebook, but rather a jab at dumb people who have no reservations on what photos they put up to the public.

[MackJ55]

how is this a shot at fb?

[Drybones5]

@MackJ55 Because they weren't friends and she could see all her pictures. Privacy on FB joke

[RyanPelley1]

@Drybones5

That's a pretty stupid "shot", since each person controls their own privacy settings....

[MackJ55]

@Drybones5 thanks i got it now...dont gotta fb so i didnt know that

[iamlegendbitches]

21 people are a friend of a friend with donna.

[Zenstudent105]

How is this taking a shot at FB?

[stapes617]

@Zenstudent105 i think its taking a shot by sayin how easily it is for someone to find your personal things on the internet, ,loss of privacy

[pauldawisp]

@Zenstudent105 At their privacy settings. Now it's obviously not a problem but back then it was.

[Zenstudent105]

@pauldawisp Good point : )

[saroh10]

@Zenstudent105 because she said she has a "facebook friend of a friend in common." it shows the lack of privacy...

[MidnightMarrow]

@saroh10 Which is a setting that can be changed you can make it friends only lol... Though I hate most all social sites anyways.

[gmoneycashmoney23]

@saroh10 GREAT comment bitch

[saroh10]

@gmoneycashmoney23 shut up just because i was spitting the truth doesnt mean you have to put me down!

[foilseal]

@saroh10 the other guy was right. you are a rotten whore.

[saroh10]

@foilseal thats mean

[rchl7]

@gmoneycashmoney23 Way to overreact. Crazy.

[gmoneycashmoney23]

@rchl7 shut up

[rchl7]

@gmoneycashmoney23 Whatever.

[saroh10]

@rchl7 yeah thanks for standing up for me. that one guy is a loser

[me213516]

@saroh10 but...you can change privacy settings. This is more of a commentary of how ignorant most facebook users are.

[donutsprinkles99]

Anyone find the URL on the paper?

[bobthetoaster7]

pam. check ur notifications!!

[JaneGirl367]

what episode is this from?

[anberlinairlift]

Goddamnit, Pam is just so gorgeous.

[caringtype1]

Nobody is taking a shot at facebook!!!!! its just funny!!! not everything has to have a deeper meaning or irony!! Its people like you that are ruining the office.!

[Nkieffer000]

not a shot at facebook but why does this have 19 dislikes?

[xblackjeepx]

I didn't see the Facebook logo, therefore we cannot be certain it is Facebook.

[555grommy]

'Quite the subtle shot 'The Office' takes at Facebook's privacy issues.'

This has nothing to do with privacy issues, on you're able to set who can see your posts, Donna obviously has her set so that friends of friends can see hers. It's not Facebook's fault.

[ccrosbie33]

@555grommy Who defends Facebook on Youtube?

[bbychod]

shut the fuck up

[zblueshell14]

How is that a shot at Facebook?

[JackDaScarecrow]

@zblueshell14 how you can bypass people's privacy blocks

[GreenEyesGirl13]

@zblueshell14 privacy 

[patatepowa]

@zblueshell14 invasion of privacy from people you have nothing to do with

[brjp128]

@zblueshell14 having a friend of a friend in common and being able to look at pictures is taking a shot at facebooks privacy

[comineeyeaha]

@brjp128 Not really, if you don't want people to be able to do that you can turn it off. It's not hard.

[shadic565]

more like a shot OF facebook. hurr hurr

[kriskurtisallen]

@zblueshell14 I think the friend of a friend picture thing.

[pkmnpttr]

wow Pam's such a stalker

[TheNortherner55]

It bothers me that she printed those pictures without checking her notifications and messages first. I always do that first. I still love Pam though.

[MaDGriZz78]

@TheNortherner55 Just wow.

[iEatUglyNoobs]

@TheNortherner55 Not everyone cares like you do.

[imsuuperduuper]

what the fuck is wrong with all of you? you sound like idiots.

[sharki9876]

@imsuuperduuper

i agree man. you are the single smartest person on the internets

[nilepwnsu]

@bcozigothigh Someone isnt paying attention to the "illegal" in illegal immigrants, they don't belong here. So my rifle shows them the door. It would be totally hypocritical if I considered them people.

[gabcove]

actually, it´s BookFace

[DrawingsByDerek]

she should check her messages. It may be important

[ch0wac1]

creed in the beginning:)

[CanadianDude778]

Not a fan of Pam...

[patrimacc]

lol not a shot at all!!!!

facebook is simply a part of the plot!

SajanParikh is an idiot for the title of this video

[tryandlisten]

@patrimacc agreed. 

[mark224]

Pretty subtle considering it's not a shot at all

[whitelighter27club]

whats facebook?

[YouNoUrRight]

NOTIFICATIONS!

[robotfreshpies]

CC is gonna grow up queefing on camera for a living

[nilepwnsu]

@TRBNGR666 You're thinking of mexicans, that's why we don't let them cross our border so easily.

[Osama213]

@nilepwnsu ha!!! please, our border is a joke.

[nilepwnsu]

@Osama213 Nahh especially near the eastern side you can see plenty of dead desertmonkeys (mexicans) lined up around the border. At least there are a few good citizens who know how to use a rifle in this country haha.

[NDBNTZ]

@nilepwnsu good ol' fashion rascism... bigot

[nilepwnsu]

@NDBNTZ I did not insult mexicans in that sentence, calm down princess.

[NDBNTZ]

@nilepwnsu "dead desertmonkeys" yup no rascism here... When i call my nigger slaves porch monkeys, its not racist its just a name i give them too

[nilepwnsu]

@NDBNTZ Regardless of your nigger nicknames, It's technically not hate speech.

[NDBNTZ]

@nilepwnsu yup sure, guy. Youre right.

[nilepwnsu]

@NDBNTZ I am not your "guy" I am a keyboard warrior, fear my trollings.

[winesti]

I see...so CC is a code name for Facebook and the "never gonna do anything wrong" is clearly sarcasm. Good work higgins.

[lyfeportrait]

Pam, you have notifications you need to check :p

[montrealredsox]

Cutest baby ever :)

[TheSunshinetaylor]

i love it when they just randomly show pictures of cece.

like when jim changes the subject and he's like 'want to see a picture of cece?' everyone says no but hes like 'she has a onesie' and everyone is interested haha

[rubberduck1810]

This video's funny for Pam's picture of CeCe, not the supposed "shot" at Facebook. I love Pam. She's not the most laugh out loud funny character, but when she has her moments, they're the best.

[Sei1863]

How is that a "shot"? That's using Facebook to see if your boss's girlfriend is cheating on him.

[adamcj2010]

@Sei1863 They have a Facebook friend of a friend in common allowing her to see the photos. It's an exaggeration on Facebook's complicated privacy issues.

[Sei1863]

@adamcj2010 That's... really not complicated at all. What the Christ is wrong with your sense of humour?

[Sei1863]

Or an exaggeration. Have you been huffing paint or something? I'm concerned.

[ClupeGuitar]

pam you have a notification and an email

[enticingmuffin]

best part of this video is creed at the beginning

[Thyclaine]

She needs to check her notifications.

[TGIFridayy]

PAM, FRIEND ME ON FACEBOOK :D

[can0mark]

How is this a shot at facebook?

[wesselbindt]

@can0mark

It points out privacy issues, I suppose.

[montrealredsox]

Cutest family ever :)

[iloveuall93]

i really doubt that this was a "subtle shot" at facebook.

[hockeytofu101]

ya cici is gonna grow up walking the streets and sucking cock for 5 bucks to pay for her ganja and cocaine and to make sure big man mack dont chop her up in his basement and feed her to flesh eating cockroaches
