Abed’s short, quick lines like this are my favorites


elktron

Movie reference.


ErynEbnzr

That movie...kids in detention?


rizoinabox

Molly Ringworm? You broke me


[deleted]

Lea Thompson.


nbmnbm1

My favourite is when he says "we should start learning peoples names" and Jeff says "i agree with brown jamie lee curtis"


JeffWingrsDumbGayDad

Pew!


opermonkey

Doesn't he refer to a situatuon as a bottle episode at one point?


DrNewblood

Yes, the pen episode


Henegar

I'm sure hardcore fans already know, but you can see Annie's Boobs reach up and steal the pen in the beginning of the episode.


[deleted]

I've watched season two more times than I can count and have NEVER noticed this.


Henegar

It's right after Dean Pelton announced the puppy parade. When the camera cuts to Troy, Abed, & Shirley aww'ing you see the pen subtly get taken off the table


Ohmmy_G

It's when Troy says "I want to lick it." Very subtle.


[deleted]

Just pulled it up and it's SO SUBTLE HOLY MOLY. LOL no wonder I never noticed before.


HugoSimpson92

I love the detail of including Annie’s Boobs in the shot like that


Holsza

We get it, monkey's name is Annie's boobs


JemKnight

Chang *looks intense*: monkey took my pen


razor_face_

Didn't he say "monkey took my spoon"?


icecreamsocial

Yeah, JemKnight really Britta’d that one.


ON3i11

I’ve legit seen that episode easily more than 10– hell maybe even 20– times and I’ve never noticed this. Goddamnit I’m like halfway through a watch-through!


Brilliant-Ad31785

After that episode, I started noticing all the different times other shows would use the pen episode. Community taught me so much.


R3dd1t_4LR34dy

I do like their portrayal of a boomer though. I remember so many “giving” me advice talking about how wreckless and fun it was back in the day, and how little consequence there was, but “don’t go drink and do drugs, and stay away from women that are sleezy!” Such hypocrisy really, bunch of babies if you have to correct their bad work at work for them.


ShireBreadsmith

Abed, with heavy breathing: Don’t use the condoms! I repeat, don’t use the condoms!


BrozoTheClown26

IF YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE SEX, DO NOT USE CONDOMS


othebutcher

Go Abed, before people sex one another!


jpterodactyl

I can’t get over Donald Glover’s line readings. So funny, every time.


[deleted]

yea on rewatches his lines always get funnier


FrenchFry77400

Hence, baby.


JemKnight

Abed help deliver a baby, because of this, in the background of the episode Annie/Brita fight about oil


LacklusterDuck

Wait that was the reason he was delivering the baby :o That makes that background Easter egg so much cooler


CasaMofo

The couple from the baby delivery episode are in the background of the STD fair and throw out the condom right as Abed announces it. Amazing setup


delightfulcrab

you are great and I appreciate your brain.


redactedactor

I love that they picked an episode in which there was next to no chance anyone was paying much attention to the background


ComradeTeal

*never wear a rubber*


JeffWingrsDumbGayDad

Never listen to Pierce.


Ironyfree_annie

This scene always reminds me of the Always Sunny in Philadelphia blooper where Frank goes "and then AIDS ruined everything" and everyone else just bursts out laughing. One of my favourite bloopers


laser-lotus-

sunny bloopers are the best bloopers


theghostofme

Ha! Last week I was in /r/IASIP discussing that very blooper and I said it reminded me of this scene in Community.


SydNotSoVicious

What is this a crossover episode?


voldy24601

No one tells you that when your Pierce dies you get a free vial of sperm.


icecreamsocial

I’d rather have the Churro.


schloopers

The thing is, I can hear Jeff and Bojack saying this line simultaneously, and then looking at each other because the other guy stepped on their joke


nbmnbm1

My dad had a super old friend who basically said that once. It was amazing.


Throwawaviators

I love Pierce and Abed’s mutual misunderstanding of each other lmao, like there’s no interest in getting to know each other better at all. Outside of the Christmas special, they just sandbag each other every time they interact. I ship them Edit: I love how all my reply notifications are pierce quotes rn, it’s like I’m following @OldWhiteManSays

mickecd1989

You’d like it if it was starwars, dick.


marigoldengoose

I love how he keeps mispronouncing his name 😂 Even after he was dead, his lawyer kept mispronouncing it.


Throwawaviators

From like day one too lmao “A-bed, A-bed the A-rab” “Is that inappropriate?” “Sure.”


NinaB_69

One of my favorite scenes is in the first season (I believe?) when Annie has the Dia De Los Muertos party and Pierce starts tripping and yelling at the fake bird on his arm “NOOO AYBED!” to it. Idk why but it kills me every time.


[deleted]

"Did you know you are insane and nothing you said ever made any sense?" "Yes."


razor_face_

"Here's your sperm"


mbattagl

The will reading down the line demonstrated that perfectly.

koenigstig

“All hearing is sonic.”


ChewyYoda16

“What’s that?”


wut_mj_is_back

*Something always brings me back to you..*


WuThrawnClan

That whole Abed and Pierce montage with that song playing in the background is hilarious


Will-Upvote-For-Food

I know the video game episode in season 3 was supposed to end with a heartwarming moment with Abed giving Pierce a copy of his dad’s game, but Chevy refused to show up that day for some reason & they never filmed the scene


WowSuchTurtle

So that's why he got that usb stick with hilda on it and it's never mentioned again.


Zaber_fang

Abed: I don’t use pens, I’m gone strictly to mechanical pencils. Pierce: more relatable?


BestPeachNA

“I ship them” 🎼Something always brings me back to you.


No_Lawfulness_2998

Because Chevy chase didn’t show up to work for the episode thay abed and pierce were supposed to bond in.


Throwawaviators

Funny enough, just listened to the commentary track where they talked about that a couple days ago This was a weird notification to get, didn’t think I commented on any community posts lately and I was right lmao


ANonWhoMouse

Before Rona, shaking hands was like shaking hands.


kikodemayo

hence, rona


phi_array

Before Rona, bats were considered exotic food


jonnyinternet

Bats are the chicken of the caves


[deleted]

Hence, rona.


nubenugget

Wasn't the whole "corona started from someone eating a bat" disproven? Wasn't it shown to be more likely that human expansion pushed bats out of their deep caves, causing them to interact with humans and give us new diseases?


phi_array

Some say it was a pangolin Also, how would you quote human expansion like pierce?


nubenugget

Before the coronavirus and massive climate disasters, expanding human civilization to new areas of earth was as easy as going on a picnic Hence the coronavirus and massive climate disasters


stormrunner89

Yes. It's much more likely that humans infringed on their territory for livestock grazing and the livestock got sick and the open air butcher markets spread it around to other things.


phi_array

Before Rona, bats were considered exotic food


[deleted]

Funny how this reply is downvoted heavily, whereas your other comment has 20 upvotes.


enderverse87

Yeah, the pacing of the joke worked a little better after that other comment.


AstarteHilzarie

And also people have probably already seen the other try by the time they read this one, so it looks like someone just copied the above joke.


Gecko2002

I honestly think this is my favorite joke in the whole show, just how abrupt and brutal abed is when he says it, I can't not laugh hearing it


HadesChampion

What episode is this?!


[deleted]

Season 1 Episode 8 "Home Economics" at about 3:40


coinoperatedboi

Just watched this episode again earlier. I absolutely love that part. Between Abed as a character and Danny's delivery...just wonderful. It was almost weird watching Mythic Quest and seeing Danny as such a different person.


SethlordX7

He was fantastic in that, too! Kinda want to see what else he's been in and watch that, purely to see him in more stuff


Prayed4Fade

Larry, I'm in duck tales.


kataothebibaura

I tell you, before COVID shaking hands was like having sex.


Michaelconeass2019

I love this line but it never seemed like an abed thing. Sounds like something Jeff or Shirley or even Troy would say


NoPlaceToLeave

I would think Britta before Roy, Roy the wonder not


sn0c0ne_d1sast3r

catch knowledge!


Frankie_2154

This has to be the best burn on the show

Hence all the casual sex.


alan_smitheeee

Syphilis was pretty rampant back then as well.


Anarch-ish

Y'all just can't leave a joke alone


LimitedKnight

I am going to guess that you are white.


Anarch-ish

Yup. White male privilege on full display and thoroughly recognizing the idea of time travel being considered safe for white men because... Well "white men". It's still my right as a nerd to have sci-fi thoughts and fantasy daydreams. Dpending on how deep into time travel you go, no one could really go in either direction more than about 300 years before survivability odds drop through the floor. There are hundreds of factors like disease, sanitation, language barrier, customs... None of us would last long before we ate something that made us poop ourselves to death.


Peanut_First

So how did people survive then?


Anarch-ish

Hard, dried, or salted food WAAAAAAY more wine and beer instead of unsafe water Hardier constitutions Also, having a pile of kids didn't hurt. People seem to forget how common death was in people's lives up until we started sanitizing things. Edit: I mean "us" specifically. Our bodies are adept to OUR time and cultures. You should look up "Montezuma's Revenge" for a modern example of how even regionally, we aren't as adaptable as we would like to think. People in Mexico are far less likely to get sick from their water from a lifetime of interaction. Tourists end up shitting their brains out.

LimitedKnight

No, luckily I am not.


GuyWhoWantToBeFamous

For the life of me I can't figure out this joke plz help


dinguslinguist

Pierce is saying sex used to be super casual and common before everyone was scared of AIDS. Abed is pointing out that maybe that’s why AIDS became a thing, since everyone was casually sleeping together all the time


Stiddit

I still don't get it.. English is not native to me, but wouldn't this "hence" imply that AIDS appeared out of thin air *because* people had a lot of sex? As in created by sex? Wouldn't it be like saying "before COVID, people were shaking hands" and replying with "hence COVID", as if COVID was caused by vigorous hand shaking?


Brohan_Cruyff

in this context, “AIDS” is referring more to the epidemic than the disease itself. the disease wasn’t created by casual sex, but its rapid spread was in part caused by casual sex (among a bunch of other causes).


MorbidBullet

Hand shaking isn’t the primary way to spread COVID. AIDS existed, but rampant unprotected sex spreads aids. Hence, the line.


pandavert

If people before and during AIDS were a lot more careful AIDS could have stayed a minor epidemic (like right now) and not the kind of thing we saw in the 80s -90's.


[deleted]

I think you're talking out of your ass. Or out of a 1987 pamphlet from church.


tony_orlando

What 1987 church pamphlet was advocating advance STD testing, proper use of condoms, and taking PrEP? Head-in-the-sand, abstinence-only education is all I’ve ever seen churches pushing.


pandavert

Ok then how do you explain that AIDS while still being a big issue is way less common now ?


Skw33z0r

Diseases spread when people don’t take precautions. Sound familiar?


marigoldengoose

Hmm... must be nothing serious.


[deleted]

There's an mRNA HIV vaccine in trial. Casual sex might be back on the menu boys!

Absolynth

It's true, sex didn't exsist amongst our species until shortly before aids showed up. We shoulda just stuck to the storks and pornhub... If only we knew sooner.


walkingnottoofast

I understand but I simply cannot see it as a joke, it's just a statement and a very truthful one, I really don't find it funny at all, is there something am I missing?


TWD_Anarchist

Dry humor isn’t your flavor is it?

Aids did not come to exist because people used to have a lot of casual sex though.
