    In reply to Mindy Kaling to Ellen: "You Look Like a Lemur"
    She's right, you know. A good friend of mine has eyes not unlike Ellen's, and it's almost unnerving how blue they are. The envy, it burns!

    Also, Mindy Kaling is further proof that homely children frequently make stunning adults. My boyfriend, who has the bone structure of a male Linda Evangelista (while we're doing odd but spot-on physical comparisons), but as a baby, he bore a frightening resemblance to Winston Churchill. The first time I saw his baby pictures, I literally took a sharp intake of breath. You know that book, "Disapproving Rabbits", that's all pictures of stern looking bunnies? Well, he was "Disapproving Baby." "

    "No, sir, I do not approve!" hehe.

    Mindy is one of my favorite people. I think all my favorite Office quotes are things she's said. Especially when she monologues and explains Netflix.

    Has anyone read her awesome blog "things that I've bought that I love"? Its super funny. A lot of it is stuff that I can't afford, but its such a tongue in cheek toast to materialism, I love it! Seeing woman like her be successful makes me very happy :-)

    Mindy Kaling is hilarious and awesome.

    I would also like to point out that she graduated from Dartmouth, which I feel redeems the school despite the asshattery of one Jeremy Pham.

    I never realized that she was a writer on the show. You mean all this time I've been privately praying that the writers feature Kelly Kapoor more, I could have just logged on to twitter and asked her myself?

    @joiful: Actually, I think the other writers (BJ) write most of the Kelly stuff, to make fun of Mindy. But that could just be my crazy-insane part of my brain that loves the idea of them as a couple making that up. They did date in real life for a while, I'm not totally pulling that out of nowhere.

    @tinydundie42: That is so cute! I was just saying to my friend last night, I love how Ryan can't stand when Kelly doesn't pay attention to him, but he hates it when she does. Knowing that they actually dated in real life makes it even more hilarious.

    I am really really pulling for Mindy K to be the next Tina Fey, even though I really haven't enjoyed The Office lately. It's super sad for me to admit seeing as Season 2 of that show is some of the best TV ever, but I'm kind of over it now :(

    Mindy episodes of The Office are the best. I mean, really, think of what your favorite episode is and look it up. I bet she wrote it.

    @EndangeredRed: I looked it up, and you're right! In the process of looking it up, I also learned that she started out as a production assistant for crazy John Edward's show, which is random and kinda awesome. I bet she has some hilarious stories about that experience...

    @EndangeredRed: When we met Mindy at the Office Convention (nerd alert!) my friend told her how awesome she thought The Injury was and Mindy seemed so happy to hear it, even though we were the end of a long long line of fans. I just adore her. Not only is she funny and smart, but she's incredibly nice and gracious.

    Jen Celotta wrote my favorite episode, though. (Email Surveillance)

    @tinydundie42: Definitely in the top 5 of Awkward Cold Open Moments. Right up there with the one recently when Michael called Oscar in to give him advice on how to act during a colonoscopy. I could barely watch.

    You guys! Mindy Kaling has stretch marks on her upper arms! I could cry, seriously, I recently noticed I have some on mine and have been like "oh, well, no more wearing t-shirts EVER AGAIN" and it makes me so so so happy to see her wearing a tank top. Or it's a weird reflection. Either way, I watched this and was all, "Me, it's gonna be okay."

    @Awestruck: I guess that is one good thing about having stretch marks, cellulite, flabby arms complete with bat-wings, etc. If I had to cover them all up I'd be covered head-to-toe (or H to T as Tyra likes to say) as a result I've gotten very comfortable showing off my body's flaws.

    I love Mindy Kaling so much. I wish she'd update her blog, which was hilarious. I also wish that she'd come hang out with me. I have this feeling that she and my sister and I would have a really good time.
