@@rafaferreira6937 probably the last we see of "wise pierce" was in that season 4 episode where he contacts a singer so rita can save face at a dance after saying she new the famous singer so she could sing at the event
@@otherscott. yes, it was unfortunate. Especially, for the rest of the cast and the crew. Yet, Dan Harmon as he always does put the off-screen attitude in the screen too. An unfortunate clash of egos lead to this.
This is my fav Pierce scene, I literally love it. “That thing some may call failure, I call living! Breakfast! And I’m not leaving until I’ve cleaned out the buffet.”
I miss this Pierce. he's a good balance between "old goofy racist" and "wise father figure". later he becomes the scapegoat for repetitive jokes about him being old or outdated, like a more developed version of Leonard.
"Congratulations, you failed a class so easy that people passing in the hallway get a CONTACT CREDIT." Greendale has never been summed up so perfectly.
Swayze died right about when the show premiered, I always wonder if they had the picture made and ready to go and added the "I had it made before he died" when they realized
Unpopular opinion: I agree with crazy Jeff. Can't trust this Rich character. He walks into the room and he's got that creepy smile with the pearly whites and he's all "hey girls, I'm a doctor". No one is that good of a guy.
This should be retitled something like "Pierce's greatest moment" As others have said, if we got more of this guy instead of antagonist Pierce, we might have gotten 7 seasons and a trilogy. Show's still magnificent.
@@walrus2515 he has been, but Harmon actively poked the bear. The stories I've heard from the set of Community makes it seem very unprofessional and held together by duct tape 😂
Actually looked up the real "throwing off the hump" method cause of this episode. Used to teach ⛵ and noticed everything they were saying in sailing class was meaningless gibberish.
I mean, if you want technical accuracy, this is not your show. But that's sort of the point, I think: Greendale is supposed to be such a clusterfuck of a school that even their administrative roles aren't right.
I watched this episode in a difficult time of my life. I was having a hard time graduating from college, my work didn't pay much, the majority of my friends were doing better than me. What Pierce said, really got me going. I'm still having a hard time except now I understand it's my turn to clean out the buffet.
That thing some men call failure I call living, breakfast. And I’m not leaving until I clear the buffet Crazy how motivational Pierce of all people could be
Felt like the writers could’ve done more as to Pierce being the father figure and his help with his fear of losing people (end of Fistful of Paintballs ep.2)
Ok so this whole episode is one big Rorschach test. In all likelihood, Rich is just a guy who likes pottery so he took the class to get access to all the pottery equipment and make some pots. Maybe he also did it to be social, make friends, hoped he’d meet a woman but who knows. Meanwhile, Jeff has concocted a conspiracy in his mind that Rich is a pottery expert, doesn’t need the class and is only taking it to impress and snag all the women because that’s something Jeff would do.
I don't know how else to put it, there's a certain element of respect and mutuality that Pierce has with Jeff here, that doesn't last throughout the show sadly. There's lots of reasons why and how his dynamic changed, Ik, but I'm thinking that's the most apparent thing that changed.
Rich is definitely not a beginner. The internal dialogue at the end of the episode confirms it. He's been practicing making pottery even before his brother died, according to his mom's dialogue.
The other seasons were funnier and had more entertaining concepts but I think the first season was the best in terms of the characters and their relationships with each other.
I know Chevy gets a lot of flack and might have been a dick, but at least for seasons1-3 I always thought he gave a good performance. Even when they were flanderizing him as a villain, he did a great job of being a heel. I dunno, I dont think its too bad to be a hateable but funny character
Infinity cannot be Infinity without you, so THANK YOU for your beautiful existence! ❤️🥰 We are all already unconditionally in heaven dreaming this physical reality together You are Eternity itself ⛩🌌⭐️ It is almost impossible to conceive a thought powerful enough to create this infinite universe. Yet such a thought exists, and YOU are that thought ~ ✨ If you respect your own emotions and regard them with affection and a lack of judgment, and if you persist in allowing yourself to feel those emotions and to let them move ever deeper, you shall find that the gift begins to bear fruit as you feel yourself becoming more spacious within, more responsive to the deeper emotions. You will find that you are an alchemist turning disharmony into harmony, fear into love, darkness into light. It is a natural process and it begins with the disharmony, with the darkness. Such are the ways of spirit. And that is why we say that things are perfect at all times, although they may be uncomfortable. Do not cringe away from your suffering, but rather cradle yourself as you endure through the natural process of the alchemy of the transforming energy, of the love in your open heart. 🌸 I AM affirmations... "I am an infinite, multi-dimensional, and eternal being." "I am All That Is and I contain it ALL." "I am the infinite creator of my own Reality. I create it all. My power is who I am." "I create myself in each and every moment completely. In each moment I make the decision about who I am." "I remain focused. I express myself consciously, continuously." "I create my Reality 100%. Everything I see is a reflection of me." "I remind myself of my decisions in their full potency, in their full, committed form." "All is well. I have decided it is easy to create the reality I desire and I do it with joy and openness." "I am willing to respond positively. Creating my Reality, and doing it consciously, is simple." "My response in any situation is always reflective of my most empowered version of who I am." "I decide who I am in each moment." "You all exist within me - I interact with different aspects of my own consciousness, through seeming external 'others', and learn more about myself." "I am always the power, the creation, the experience, the perception of the experience, the observer and the observed - it is all me - reflecting back to myself who I am." "I have the means, the methods, the tools, and the keys to make the decision about who I am consciously - in every moment." "Who I choose to be already exists, and I effortlessly allow it in." I am All That Is: and I choose to express myself in time and space as an individual called “say your name here”. I am the oceans, I am the forests, I am the deserts, I am the jungles, I am the mountains, I am the sky, I am the Earth. I am the solar system. I am the galaxy. I am the Universe. I am the multiverse. I am All That Is; All knowledge is within me, all power is within me; I am all love. I contain it all. I am All That Is; my physical body and my reality are within me. Separation is an illusion: the essence of all objects are real, but the perception that they are separate is not. All are parts of a whole; all are parts of All That Is. Everything is connected. Everything is synchronicity; All one thing. The world I see around me is an illusion created by the energy I am sending out: My reality is in truth only a dream I am having and I can dream it any way I want to. I focus on the reality that I prefer, act in alignment with it, and then relax and allow the universe to manifest it in perfect timing. It’s that simple. It’s easy to go from an old belief to a new belief: and make the new belief stick. There is no reality except that there is no reality. That there is no reality is the “real” reality. All beliefs have equal weight. I get to choose. What I focus on I experience. Within my consciousness exists all vibrations of all possible and probable realities: I could ever experience. I am holographic in nature and structure. I contain it all. My vibration determines which aspect of All That Is I experience to be my Physical Reality. Space and time are a property of me: I create time to exist. Experientially, the only actual time that exists is “now”. Absolute continuity of time is an illusion. It’s one choice. In each moment I literally recreate my own reality - entirely -100%. The present is the result of the present. Any external situation is a symbol of an internal concept and has no control over me whatsoever: I realize that everything in physical reality is a symbol. No matter what the outer reality may appear like, I maintain full awareness of my intention, trust it, and act in alignment with it. When I shift my point of view, and my approach, my reality immediately transforms 100% across the board. The evidence to support the fact that the reality has indeed changed will be obvious... 👽 Passion and all of its expressions- excitement, happiness, joy, creativity, love- are all different ways of expressing the vibration of your true natural self, what we call your “signature frequency” Your signature frequency is that resonant energy, that vibration that is unique to you, that identifies you as a unique aspect of All-That-Is of Creation And the way you apply that signature frequency through passion is to act on your highest excitement to the best of your ability with no insistence or assumption as to what the outcome ought to be, as to what to come to fruition, but to allow the synchronicity in your life to present to you the opportunities that contain that excitement so you can recognize it, because excitement is the compass needle that points to your magnetic north, and by acting on it to the best of your ability, you will bring about in your life, what we call the complete kit You will allow it to work for you and you will discover, very readily, very easily, that excitement can function in your life as the driving engine, as the organizing principle, as the path of least resistance, as the thread that leads to all other expressions of excitement, and as the reflective mirror that will reveal to you what may be within you that is out of alignment with that excitement so you can identify it and bring it back into alignment and expand your excitement in that way. And simply by following that formula of acting at every moment to the best of your ability on your highest excitement with no insistence on how the outcome should look, you will activate that complete kit and it will work for you automatically, effortlessly, every moment without fail. As you allow yourself to move forward in that way, your life will become an ecstatic explosion of synchronicity. Very magical things will begin to happen all around you because magic is, again, the true nature of existence. Miracles are the natural order of things, not the exception ☀️ Let us look first at the first choice and that was the choice of the Creator to know Itself. In choosing to know Itself the Creator flung from Itself innumerable and infinite sparks of love which coalesced into each awareness that dwells within the infinite awareness. Each of those sparks of awareness is the Creator, and yet, because the Creator chose free will in the manifesting of sparks of self, each spark is unique and has been unique since before time began. Each of you is eternal and in many ways immutable, a citizen of infinite nature, worth and value. Each one a holograph of the Creator and yet each one different. Thus, the choice that birthed each of you was a choice to know the truth, to know the self, and as the Creator is love, so is each entity love. This is the central truth. This is that which does not change. Yet this is that which is ever wrapped in mystery. 💎 Self-criticism and self-judgment are powerful sources of blockage. There is within many seekers the desire to make a difference in the world, to help others and serve good causes. Yet, in that same general run of seekers there is often a prejudice against working on the self, for it seems selfish to be absorbed in the processes of the self. It is our opinion that it is in healing yourself that you heal the world. It is in learning to love yourself that you learn to love others. It is in finding compassion at last for yourself that you are finally able to have compassion on others. It is in blessing your own suffering by respecting it, honoring it, and forgiving it in yourself that you become able to behold the suffering of the world in its massive and almost infinite depth. It is necessary, really, for you to fall in love with yourself. Self-judgment cannot be overcome. It must be balanced by compassion. You are bound to make mistakes and come under the possibility of judgment. Yet also do you have within you creatorship, so that you are never in a position of having failed for longer than it takes for you to turn again to the light and start afresh. There are various techniques for falling in love with yourself. If you are present with yourself and become aware of the wide range of emotions that you feel, that may be the most direct way to become kindly affectioned towards yourself, to like yourself, and ultimately, gloriously, genuinely, truly, fall in love with yourself. Just as you are, you are perfect!
