    I always see this scene and get so sad for him. That’s a lot of food that he put a lot of work into and was proud of his work. Watching him try to shovel it back into the pot hurts. I know it’s meant to be played off for humor, but I see next to none in that scene.

      It was all this cringe to me. I just couldn’t stand The Office, Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Bridget Jones films, Fleabag, IASIP…cringe humor just makes my heart hurt.

      I have a friend who I suspect has never raised animals, tell me about the “funniest moment on broadcast tv” in excruciating detail. It was the episode of WKRP when they threw turkeys out of a helicopter and instead of flying, they dropped to their deaths. Apparently, that’s really funny.

      He also recounted an episode of Night Court when a couple got in trouble accidentally killing a bunch of baby chickens in a propane explosion.

      If I didn’t already, I would have sworn off sitcoms from that.
