Yeah, I don't know how it plays to out-of-staters, but there comes a point where a weekly KotH was too much.

Sorta like it is hard to rewatch Office Space or Idiocracy. Have to be in the right mood, every 4 or 5 years. OS was filmed in my neighborhood and until the credits rolled I thought Stephen Root (Milton) was a former coworker (physical doppelgänger) where we literally had a TPS form.

Going out for lunch with coworkers, "I hope Judge isn't sitting behind us" became a thing people would say. Freakish accuracy.

When I saw OS in the theater my jaw was in my lap the entire time, because I had worked with a slightly taller version of Peter. Disaffected guy who dressed the same, had the same haircut, talked constantly about leaving, took the wall off his cube to see out the window. Same lip curl when he was about to lose it.
