The Official Office "That's what she said" Tutorial

Well by shear genious thought on the behalf of Heather and an unnoticed "That's what she said" joke by the infamous T-bone comes this tutorial for "That's what she said" jokes.

First a History lesson. I believe the "that's what she said" joke may have started with Todd Packer. I mean lets be honest he does write some of Michaels best material. In any case it is now a Michael staple phrase whenever an inappropriate comment is necessary. That should bring everyone up to speed.

So when is it appropriate to use a "That's what she said"?

Here are some examples when it is well used:
"...put this matter to bed. That's what she said!"
"I want you think about this long and hard. That's what she said!"
"I need two men on this. That's what she said."
"That was a long ride. That's what she said."

Here are some examples when it does not apply:
"Wow, that coffee is hot. That's what she said."
"I am swamped with paperwork. That's what she said."
"My foot hurts. That's what she said."

For further information please review the following video.



As you can tell a corrrectly timed and used "That's what she said" comment can end in hilarious results, but when not used properly can result in nothing more than an akward silence and quite a few blank stares.

Now that you know, please be responsible and correct with your "That's what she said" usage.

So just to tie it all together for Tyler:

Tyler: "Greg, you are a HUGE tool"
Greg: "That's what she said"
Heather: "Hey Ohhhhhhh"

<---Greg has effectively disarmed Tyler's original smack talk.

My counter-point to that disarming would be my appropriate use of the "you are a gay commercial" comeback, effectively "re-arming" my smack talk.

Point taken.

The fact of the matter is however that it is huge!
