Best of Jerry | Parks and Recreation 

Wen I start to feel bad for him I just think of that

All the others are assholes and should have been reported to hr for creating a hostile work environment.

Yeah, but work is 8h of your life every day, so some could argue that his life is the best. Still, half full glass : )

He also always has the best ideas.

That is extremely likely the REASON they make fun of him. See my essays above.

Isn't it a mosaic too?

It really made me sad how they treated him

You mean the murinal 😂

Murinal*

It’ll stay magnificent until someone murinates all over it

That's a kinda clever observation

You win the internet 😂😂

Thats quite a solve detective

Ben was cheering “cube butt” 😂😂😂

that Tom and Jerry one really caught me off guard

Don’t trip God balanced it out with a huge penis

Absolutely true!!

I had a coworker like Gary once. Fat, gross, socially inept... But unlike Terry, he was single. Not sure about the other thing Larry's got though.

But he is so happy at home!

It’s a give and take, kind of world. Can’t have everything I guess. Man has it made though big meat and Gail at the house, that’s all you need.

"That man has the largest penis I have ever seen in my life."

It just makes it funnier 😂 Jerry is so underrated as a character

And made him mayor of Pawnee

@@kcmn0089 the most beloved mayor of pawnee

@@alexcerien2032 This.

and gave him the largest penis that doctor has ever seen 😂

Yeah this is amazing!

@@heyguysjohnfarder That's not a nice thing to say about someone who has a murinary infection...

Sounds like my life in highschool 😪

What did you expect from a bunch of ignorants?

He also mentioned the death of his grandma which is really sad and just makes how everyone else acted more mean spirited

@@heyguysjohnfarder MURINAL MURINAL MURINAL MURINAL

It's not really a smart way of writing, there's no subtlety, in my opinion, but it works, I guess. This show along with the office US, seinfeld and curb, not in that order, are the funniest for me.

If I’m not mistaken I heard somewhere that because they felt so bad with how his character was treated he was allowed to choose his home life/backstory and that’s why it’s so perfect

And the giant penis

that was so obvious

He's also PACKIN'.

lol ben and jerrys

Their icecream is pretty good too

One of my favorite scenes.

It's not the only massive thing Jerry has, according to the doctor.

@@jerryturner2310 oh yeah, the biggest penis he’s ever seen, might have been the factor for the hot wife

@@jerryturner2310 👀

2nd best. Ron is best boy.

3 kids isn't a massive family

He's such a sweet guy

It's just the universe balancing out for everything that he has outside of the workplace.

At least he have the most happy life outside the job🥺🥺

His penis doesn’t feel bad for him

*murinal

*Gary

Yeaa omy

The mural was really nice.

Rhett Simbulan *Terry

Redacted is his sons middle name

@@fadedflame2537 so your saying that I should share swanson's full legal name to you what else do you want his social!(I know)

@@kellynolen498 Hm. Full list of every tree where he's buried decoy gold? (I don't want to know where's the real gold. Just the decoys.)

I was searching for this comment

They're all jealous of jerry if you ask me.

I don't laugh at Jerry either because he has a dime piece of a wife and daughters.

Yeah man, he's got the best life out of all, aside from Ron. All laugh at him for word slip ups or farts, that's it, just way too mean for little fault of his. Felt bad for that guy.

It’s one of the many things that I don’t like about Tom.

I always thought if was funny that even the nicest and friendliest of the characters(leslie) joins in at making fun of Jerry on a regular basis

That's really more of a spontaneous Leslie thing if you really think about it.

After rewatching several times, coupled with other scenes showing Leslie's other interaction with other artworks by others, I am convinced that it is not just Leslie's own animosity towards Gary, but also reflects a fundamental incomprehension / non-appreciation / rejection of higher level art, _on her part_ including painting and at least some music (she also condemns Jerry's piano playing, as well as, I *think* other classical music that is played by others in another episode). I feel that her character, among her other great many attributes and flaws, really is stunted in her ability to appreciate art, music and other, let's say, non-political things. However, rather than own up to the fact she doesn't understand what she is seeing/hearing, she instead exhibits some wild, cartoonish behavior to destroy or condemn it rather than reveal her ignorance to everyone else. That is a major character flaw and one she needs to improve past the detailed/shown 'main arc' of the show (any improvement does not appear to be shown in the main episodes during the main timeline, and future flash-forwards are too brief and non-specific to give any inkling of whether her art knowledge/appreciation has improved in the further future, or not). As a musician, her kind of (as I see it) really stupid and glaringly bad lack of ANY insight about almost any aspect of art, is also something that particularly rubs ME the wrong way whenever I see it in the show and makes me dislike her character more, because in my real-world experience, I find that people who cannot, or will not, appreciate ANYTHING about more 'classic' forms of art (i. e. they can't find anything to like about it at all, even a few things), either have serious emotional/moral deficiences, of which this non-appreciation becomes a 'red flag', or else they have such a completely different personality type than my own, that this is a good indicator that we will not fundamentally be able to get along as friends no matter how hard I try. This I have learned from many successive and confirming real-world examples. Some of these folks, though, DO like / are moved by more modern and postmodern forms of art (more abstract paintings / noisier or dissonant music), and it DOES actually bring out deep emotions in them. This, I find admirable, although again it does mean we will probably have a very difficult time getting along. But- it means that because SOME art DOES move them on SOME level, they have that capacity within themselves to be moved, which means I feel they are more ethical and more human than they would be otherwise. A good example of that is when Tom Haverford inadvertently discovers his love of abstract art during the mural competition. The colors and shapes touch and move something in him that he is so unused to knowing is there, or being in touch with, that he cannot fully articulate it and has a hard time dealing with it, but I believe this is a secret and yet crucial leap forward in his moral character during the course of the show. It's possible the abstract art, for him, actually is the key that unlocks him to gradually becoming a more responsible adult, a better person, and a better boyfriend and more worthy partner.

@@andrewbarrett1537 to long didnt read

@@andrewbarrett1537 Cool story bruh

Exactly. Him being clumsy is fine but everyone being horrible to him is just unfair. It's bullying.

but only goes so far

@@BigBoi653 but in the end it doesn't even matter

And he succeeds, have you seen his wife

He’s mayor what for like 50 terms lol in the near end of the episodes

Larry*

Just noticed

He just witnessed a painting get cloned in front of him; most people never see that kind of miracle.

No one can peer pressure Ron Swanson... No one.

Sam195 True. Also in later seasons I really liked how nice Ben was towards Jerry. It made me really happy when he declared his friendship with Jerry, even when he was told not to.

IthinkI'maddictedtoprocrastination They even started making ice cream together.

Ben ws never mean to Jerry which is a really nice thing from Ben .

April kinda hates everyone though, so it makes sense if she hates Jerry too

Valentina Novak And they're bffs with the guus who run the B99 channel

Also liked him in saul

SOOOOOO true

F

Nevermind that when he came out of retirement, he became the best Mayor Pawnee had until the day he died.

Plus he wasn't even fully qualified for the job because his college was a 2 year college not a 4 year one

He actually puts in a tonload of effort into doing his job even though he messes it up sometimes... have you seen all the episodes? When is assigned a task, he jumps on it immediately with a breathtaking singlemindedness and drive. At some fundamental level he is really a perfect employee even though they are unwilling to give him more than a tiny shred of credit.

Ron is probably smarter due to how he was able to apply his skills.

He is actually a really hard worker

Even when mark told jerry he was adopted he regretted saying that

Bear Bones what about Ann?

...besides Ann, Ben, and Mark, and Donna at least in the first few seasons ;)

@@gabriellabermanAnn gave it up to every dude she met. 😂 Ben is the only one that was ever actually nice to him.

gary*

It's the joke.

*Larry

Holy shit some people are weak

The writers felt bad about it too, which is why they have him the idyllic home-life he had.

When Rick and Morty started, I somehow felt they based making fun of that Jerry to this one, and then named the character the same.

Ron isn’t necessarily nice to Jerry

Chris is pretty mean to him in Season 6 lol

Ben is nice to him, Ron is Ron so you can’t really tell, and Chris isn’t nice to him. It’s subtle but you can tell. (Edit: rewatched some of the moments, it's not even that subtle) Dude let Jerry almost choke to death.

No you're not

yes you are

When I started watching the show I was really shocked at first, but they're actors and it's a joke, and it grew on me. Pretty funny how rude they are if you ask me

Doesnt matter.largerst penis ever. Joking aside be happy for gary. He knows he has everything he need, beautiful life with beautiful wife and daughters. Nothing other people can say will truly hurt him. All because he recognizes his blessings. Gary is cool. I mean jerry

Me too

also I love the implication that leslie may like jerry's butt lol

They gave him a great life in the end though

Everytime they bullied Jerry/Gary it just felt unneccesarily cruel. I get that's the joke but 99% of the time his scenes just made me cringe because of how the others treated him, not from the embarrassing situations he ends up in. I really hate how almost nobody ever sticks up for him until some scenes later in the show, it pulls away from their own character development. It's a big blemish on an otherwise perfect show.

Her expression makes me laugh so hard every time 😂

I mean she listened spice girls while working, i think thats the answer

im sorry did u just leak brain juice into the comment section
