Much hullabaloo has been made over "that episode of the Office with tons of Cornell references," so I finally sat down to watch it (even though it means I'm definitely watching the series out of order). All in all, I was fairly impressed with the depth of Dwight's Cornell knowledge; there's no way I would have been able to name Cornell's 7th and 8th presidents in an interview. He also referenced the current quarterback (Nathan Ford) and Comstock Hall (a building I've never been in). But the one thing that particularly tickled me was this:
That's right, there are Wegman's products in the background! Say what you will about my terrible skills of observation, but those colors flashed on the screen and I immediately recognized them.
If you haven't seen it yet, the episode is titled "Employee Transfer" and will be available on
Hulu for approximately two more weeks.

Didn't it bother you that the a cappella groups referenced are not actual groups? (Unless they've been formed in the past year or were relatively unknown?) Have you heard of the Do-Re-Migos or the Harmoniacs?

Yeah, I did notice that, but isn't Andy a former member of "Here Comes Treble," which is also nonexistent, and female to boot? So maybe they're continuing that trend and don't want to single out an actual group?
