The Office REACTION // Season 3 Episode 15 // Ben Franklin

[@bobapjok4241]

A LOT of people think Ben Franklin was a president.

[@grayadam]

Yeah, stupid people.

[@WhatAreMovie]

Think it's just one of those names you instantly connect to president for some reason ha, so funny Michael thought it too!

[@coffeeninja2852]

At least they have the excuse of not being American.

[@bobapjok4241]

@@WhatAreMovie Yea, founding father, on the 100 bill, deeply influential. it makes sense to assume that.

[@bobapjok4241]

@@coffeeninja2852 exactly, no reason for an American who has been to school to not know that, unfortunately schools are not teaching this stuff much anymore

[@positivelynegative9149]

That "Shut up, Angela!" from Meredith is my favorite line of hers in the entire series. 🤣

[@WhatAreMovie]

It's so good!

[@grayadam]

Andy is attending anger management training. He shall return.

[@WhatAreMovie]

He may be there a while lol

[@davidg5506]

"Fat stacking benjis, yo" - Skinny Pete I would have assumed you knew Ben Franklin only because he is on the $100 bill.

[@WhatAreMovie]

Ah that makes sense, I never connected it to be honest. Don't often look at dollars but Skinny Pete always coming in with the knowledge lol

[@positivelynegative9149]

8:27 I think Pam was trying to subvert Jim & Karen's late-night talks. 😄

[@WhatAreMovie]

With some classic awkward sleep advice lol

[@proflcr8779]

Dwight's conversation with Benjamin Franklin is one of the greatest moments in American history.

[@nikolai6634]

We just call him Ben Franklin, cause we Americans are not only physically lazy, but also mentally lazy, and we just shorten it to Ben

[@WhatAreMovie]

Ha fair enough. I noticed Michael (I think) did say Benjamin at one point while I was editing.

[@sophiewelsh8619]

National Treasure was so good!!

[@TrevorSTL79]

First time i saw this episode i thought Rob Schneider was playing Ben Franklin

[@positivelynegative9149]

Have y'all not seen Braveheart (1995)? 😄 It's a good film. Ignore all the talk about it being historically inaccurate because it never claimed to be. It's just a good story. 👍

[@WhatAreMovie]

No I haven't, not sure if Claire has but I'm guessing not. One I definitely need to check out at some point! :)

[@charlesbarnes6912]

Appiffery😂😂😂

[@WhatAreMovie]

Always good when you have one!

[@robpetrie6486]

Oh ya Ben Franklin trying to get his freak on baby

[@kristinanelson7143]

American students today couldn’t tell you who’s President now. They can however name every Kardashian.

[@vincentvancraig]

Franklin is on the $100 dollar bill, & because of that, many americans even assume/think he was a president (like micheal thought he was), but he didnt want the job, he definitely couldve been a president, but he *was* one of the framers of the u.s. constitution tho, & an inventor....anyway, its amazing u guys know so much stuff....americans these days dont even know their own history, let alone sh*t about british or european history, but they should...i know a tiny bit because im old, & it fascinates me, lol.

[@vincentvancraig]

Oh, yeah, god, dont feel like u got the benjamin franklin thing wrong....im impressed, for real, ....again, in any given decade, for *years* now, most ppl ur age in the u.s. dont even know who the current vice president is, our educational system is just hot garbage....anyway, right on, u guys are awesome.

[@Avalee325]

This made me wonder… since we have American history in schools here, do y’all have British history where you gotta learn all the kings and wars etc? Cuz I think there were a lot 😮😅

[@9LiveWire1]

Let's gooooo!!! I am wondering, have yal ever watched, That 70s Show??? Might be worth adding to yals list of yal haven't?? Have a great day to you both!!!

[@jmsaucedo]

you know that packer (the actor) was going to be the actor of (michael)

[@leesmith9299]

a character being inadvertently awkward is an endearing quality to me not a negative. i like the less cool as a cucumber characters. to me they're more relatable. and i feel with karen it's completely understandable. she was caught completely off guard having no doubt one of the biggest and emotion moments of her life so far being discussed. it's bound to make a real not so confident person like pam very flustered. and roy clearly does not have genuine interest in pam's painting. it's clearly acted in a robotic way that tells us this is bs and it's on a list of things he's been told to say or do to get pam back. i bet someone else had to write that list for him. he had no idea.

[@KelliFranklin]

Our public school system has failed millions of my fellow countrymen. Franklin wasn't president but scores of people think he was. Why should you know if Franklin was president or not? I have no idea about the people that founded your country. Don't sweat it. Lol. We're not related. Lol

[@WhatAreMovie]

I'm glad we're let off for this lack of knowledge ha. Lol, I would've believed it if you said you were 😂

[@melvinwren]

when i was in public school, they definitely taught us about ben franklin. im from texas, and at the time, it was the worst ranked of the 50 states in education. this is just how i precieve it, but its that most of my peers dont care about history as much as i do. which is why i remember learning about ben franklin, or even like nelson mandela , and my peers will have the "mandela effect" thinking he died in the 80s or some shit or that ben franklin was a president. meanwhile i retained the info they taught me about something i was interested in. all while i was in the wost education system in US at the time.

[@melvinwren]

but dont ask me to math or science., which they also taught me, but i didnt/dont care about so i dont remember any that information.

[@AChickandaDuck]

Unpopular opinion: That moment with Pam in the break room where she tells Jim to get more sleep is the cringiest moment in the entire show. It’s worse than Scott’s Tots. I can’t deal. 😂

[@davidfleischmann3579]

No worries mates, it’s a common misconception that BF was president. Like most Americans think that.

[@jmsaucedo]

please subtitles of the show

[@WhatAreMovie]

Apologies, I shall get the footage with subtitles from the next episode. I have to capture the footage separately from when we watch anyway so it won't affect us but I'll be happy to have them on for the sake of the video :) We usually do that anyway for most of the shows.

[@jmsaucedo]

@@WhatAreMovie thanks, appreciate it, great reaction videos!!!

[@itsyoboyb6314]

A dirty little secret about this show that doesn’t get talked about much is how much Pam just sucks.

[@fetakbuzna]

it looks like u 2 didnt see braveheart...do reaction now plz u r welcome
