Jerry appears each morning with a smile, nice, polite, and perhaps a bit of a buffoon, then, like clockwork, someone viciously insults him to his face. But apparently the Parks Department of Pawnee is more of a muffin crowd, because every week they delight in trashing his guts. Essentially, Gergich is a human donut: round, sweet, and totally inoffensive.
He’s a nice guy that everybody treats like crap.
JERRY PARKS AND REC FAMILY SO HOT TV
What makes Jerry my favorite joke on TV is his simplicity. So simple, so immature, so deeply, deeply hilarious. It culminates in the full-pant split, followed by some pitch-perfect flatulence, and it gets me every time. And then, of course, what happens is Jerry’s loser-dom pushes them further than they ever imagined they’d go. It’s the simplest of premises, and classic Gergich: Everybody please be nice to Jerry, the office loser, no matter what happens. There’s a reasonable chance NBC will take that clip down, because heaven forbid viewers be able to easily enjoy their content, but I recommend you watch the entire scene here. It’s earth-shatteringly juvenile, I know, but I love it so. He’s my favorite man on television, and whenever I feel crummy, I like to watch him rip his pants, and then, because there is a god in heaven, fart real loud. But the few times when Surprise Kitty hasn’t fixed what ailed me, when life was at its darkest and most unforgiving, I’ve pulled out the big guns. I’ve seen it 1,000 times, and it’s made me laugh each and every one of them, because apparently I’m evolving into both a child and an old lady simultaneously. OK, not any of them, except for the ice cream and the drinking, but I combine that into a special little concoction I’ve dubbed “Winescream.” However, when I’m really feeling down, and a few scoops of vanilla covered in cheap cabernet somehow won’t cure it all, I turn to the internet. Friends of mine like to call their mom to help bat away the blues, or pop a few “mood pills,” or maybe grab a drink with the gang to cheer themselves up. Or, if they’re lunatics, they go for a run. When some people are down, they eat ice cream.
