“ We are the only species on Earth that observe "Shark Week". Sharks don't even observe "Shark Week", but we do. For the same reason I can pick this pencil, tell you its name is Steve and go like this (breaks pencil) and part of you dies just a little bit on the inside, because people can connect with anything. We can sympathize with a pencil, we can forgive a shark, and we can give Ben Affleck an academy award for Screenwriting.”

Community came out of the gates swinging.
It really did, first season knocked it out of the park, and it really didn’t start getting inconsistent until late season three, even then it’s still great
Is Good Will Hunting not considered a good movie? I’ve only heard good things about it, and that’s the Academy award I see for Ben Affleck.
Yes, Good Will Hunting is considered a good movie, a high quality movie in fact. If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it.
There is however a rumor that Good Will Hunting was written solely by Matt Damon, or at the very least the best parts of the film were written by Matt Damon. The joke being that Matt Damon earned the Award, and Ben Affleck's name is just attached, but we feel bad for him so he gets the award too.
In fact the first season of Family Guy, released shortly after the film references it, https://youtu.be/DRd_Gv90Y4Q
I will note that there is no real legitimacy to this rumor. AFAIK it's just tabloid gossip.
Oh my god. Steve is dead.
It's all fun and games until the kids go home and tell their parents Derek went missing
"Derek got used up and we threw him in the trash"
💀
Mommy! Terry ate Derek today! 😭
"I grabbed Derek and smeared him all over my art project today!"
I'm naming all my posts from now on.

Delete him, brother. Delete Janegus.
Maximum Derek.
Works with farm animals too. In 2009 the ignobel Veterinary medicine price was given for discovering that cows who have names give more milk than cows that are nameless. Apparently the nameless cows receive inferior treatment from the employees, which is then reflected in their wellbeing and milk production. If production animals have only numbers instead of proper names, people have a harder time relating to them, and consequently, don’t treat them much better than a child would treat a nameless gluestick.
Interesting, the brain is a weird thing. Thanks for sharing!
Excellent to also teach Personification 👏
