Being a Meme and Kelly Kapoor's Main Character Energy
At 33:23 · chapter starts 33:20
Mindy admits she loves being a meme more than almost anything because it makes her feel young. She sends Kelly Kapoor 'this day is bananas' memes to her own friends. Amy and Mindy then celebrate what makes Kelly Kapoor enduringly funny: she's listed eleventh on the call sheet but lives as though she's the show's lead. She thinks she's the hottest person in the office, feels bad for Pam, and is convinced she's destined for fame. That delusional main-character energy, Mindy notes, is also what powered The Mindy Project's lead character — a different kind of delusion, but recognizably related.
Mindy Kaling wrote more episodes of The Office than any other writer — a remarkable achievement for someone who started as the room's only woman and only person of color.
