we’re taking a look at our favorite
recurring jokes from the cult hit
community
we’ll be excluding Easter eggs or
behind-the-scene gags as clever as they
may have been number 10 pop pop there
seems to be one at every school the guy
with the catchphrase first off pop no
one’s quite sure what it’s supposed to
reference but they love it and feel it
works just the same such is the case
with side character magnitude who is
best known for his signature slogan pop
pop has one of the on-campus party dudes
he apparently first coined the slogan
when Annie ran through a window and two
balloons popped in succession
[Music]
odd Genesis aside the phrase and his
little raised the roof gesture that
accompanies it are consistent throughout
number nine shut up Leonard hey guys
thanks for eating all the macaroni shut
up Leonard nobody even knows what you’re
talking about
Leonard is one of the older students of
Greendale and like all people of
advanced age he is widely respected for
his insight and acumen just kidding like
some elderly folks he gives his thoughts
and opinions very freely with little
prompting and the members of the study
group and Beyond are pretty quick to
dismiss him with a rousing declaration
of shut up Leonard followed by some sort
of call-out to deflate him shut up
Leonard I talked to your son’s family
day I know all about your gambling
Leonard never takes the not-so-subtle
hint and is sure to start running his
mouth again soon thereafter but he never
seems to take offense either resulting
in a hilarious vicious cycle number
eight sangwich and denotation banal
angling sangwich and denotation are too
mostly nonsense words to describe the
way Dean Craig Pelton and senior Ben
Chang talk trust me I know these events
like the back of my chain one of the
signature habits of the eccentric
faculty members is to insert their own
name or title into a word or sentence
ancient weaponry genital mutilation
subjects talking my language
these puns crop up frequently especially
the Dean’s greetings and with
increasingly loose relation to whatever
words either Chang or Dean are replacing
it’s just one of the many little
idiosyncrasies that make Greendale
Community College such a bizarre and
magical place on TV that is in real life
you’d probably lose your mind after a
semester
welcome to deen dayal Community College
een I’m a silly goose number seven
Britta’s the worst ha Britta set up in
the first episode to be a love interest
/ cool girl she quickly gets on
everyone’s nerves with everything from
her
politics and her cringe-worthy attempts
to be sensitive on all matters to her
pronunciation of the word bagel
any pronounced bagel I don’t come on
bagel uh the worst it’s all earned her
the reputation for being for lack of a
better term the worst it’s all done in
good fun but you’d think it would great
on a girl’s confidence you’re the worse
when Troy leaves he tells her she’s the
best rapping the long-running joke
nicely almost breaded our goodbyes I’m
the worst the best and I love you number
six rhyming names the great thing about
this one is its casual nature well well
well Harvey Keitel the study group picks
up a habit of beginning a phrase and
then rhyming it with a name my tae-sun
it’s the sort of silly things that
friends do in real life
casually competing to see who can come
up with the sickest burn or in this case
the most unique or clever rhyme it’s
never really called out directly except
once when any may or may not have just
made up a name on the spot to finish her
rhyme
yeah that one seems too convenient bring
it on punks to Lyon I’m gonna Greg Mull
dunna
it’s a real guy he owns a mattress store
downtown you can look it up sometimes
they don’t quite rhyme but our instead
puns but hey this game is all about good
fun so we’ll give it a pass chick don’t
reach christina ricci I said chick
number five Jeff’s speeches I want to
say something sit out many shows from
family sitcoms to South Park use one
character as the moral center of a group
to voice the message or lesson at the
end of each episode like South Park
community uses this trope as a joke
because if anyone can take the moral
high ground
it is not Jeff Winger we’re the only
species on earth that observes Shark
Week his speeches usually come in a
moment when the group is fracturing and
needs a pep talk to rally them back
together summarizing what the conflict
is and what they have done or will do to
overcome it the apex of this running
joke is this ultimate speech that shows
just how formulaic they are and how
hilarious El Corazon del agua as for
that that water is a lie
breeding your testicle microwave
satellite transmissions number four
Annie’s boobs not her actual boobs
after Abed gifts Troy a pet monkey he
takes to Twitter to pull what its name
should be
isn’t that right Annie’s boobs please
rename nothing the results land on
Annie’s boobs
boaty mcboatface could have told you
that this is what happens when you pull
the Internet Annie is understandably
annoyed with the name but it sticks
nonetheless but when the pet is released
and escapes into the air ducts we are
then treated to several seasons with the
occasional mention of the antics of
Annie’s boobs
turns out it’s a kleptomaniac but would
have thought that inappropriate naming
could have such excellent results number
three
Dean Pelton’s outfits so Dean Pelton is
odd this was established early on in the
series between his denotations
harebrained ideas and not-so-subtle
infatuation with Jeff Winger he is
eccentric to say the least
this is punctuated by occasional and
then increasingly frequent costume
changes
it’s feline AIDS awareness day folks
so let’s whip it in the keister although
they are topical in the beginning
relating to either a holiday or a theme
running through the episode eventually
they’re just well just cuz the man just
loves to dress up way to live your life
Dean Pelton way to live your life
frankly my dear I don’t give a day
number to daybreak this one is so subtle
you would be excused if you missed it
daybreak is a jazz song by Michael
Hagins during a horror story that Abed
was telling the song became featured and
Abed stopped his narration to hum a
a catchy tune has since been humped by
other characters or been softly played
in the background a subtle nod towards
its enduring infectious melody as it is
Abed’s favorite song a cameo was
reportedly discussed for musician
Michael Hagins but sadly this little
before we unveil our number one pick
here are some honorable mentions as you
guys usually spend the first 20 minutes
talking about your interesting personal
lives near cool emotional problems I
just feel like I never have anything to
offer do they do stuff to you but no do
you get paid more if they do stuff to
you but know this fine
I don’t do it I mean captain Barnes we
should probably set sail while the wind
is still in our favor don’t you think
number one Troy and Abed in the morning
Troy and Abed are the epitome of
friendship goals of the many fun and
crazy stunts they pull the most
memorable is Troy and Abed in the
morning thanks in large part to its
super catchy jingle Troy and Abed in the
morning they begin this little morning
news segment sometimes with an audience
guest interviewee or just by themselves
they’re not actually broadcasting
anything just fooling around playing off
each other while having fun they even
create a logo and customized coffee cups
for themselves the jingle is not
exclusive to their news segment but it’s
also applied several times to things
they do together just goofing off it’s
pure silly pop-culture fun which is what
community was always about what are you
doing nothing my ass what are all these
cameras doing here do you agree with our
picks check out these other great clips
