The Office: The Ultimate Michael Vs Toby Quiz

"I hate so much about the things that you choose to be."

"Every time I try and make something fun or exciting, you make it... not that way."

You may have noticed this even if you've only watched a few episodes of The Office; Michael Scott REALLY hates Toby Flenderson.

One of the show's longest running and most beloved gags was the pure level of unadulterated loathing Michael directed at Scranton's mild-mannered, unimposing HR representative. Whether it be telling him to stick a letter opener in his own skull or attempting to frame him for drug possession, Michael never missed up the opportunity to make fun of Toby's divorce, kick him out of the conference room for making a joke or just make his life as difficult as possible.

The worst part of it? The only justification that Michael ever gives for his hilariously intense hatred of Toby is that while Michael's job is to make the office fun, "Toby's job is to make the office lame". While Toby gets his own back on a few rare occasions, the mercilessly one-way nature of Michael's irrationally brutal bullying probably would have been quite upsetting if it weren't so damn funny.

If you're a true fan of The Office and don't get 100% on this quiz, you might want to ask yourself "why are you the way that you are?".
