1. Is it just me, or are these lines from Moneyball a bit too similar to something Rachel says in a 1995 episode of Friends?

3. Joey was doing it before Barney made it cool.
4. The New Adventures of Recycled Lines
5. Don't feel bad, Joey. Dwight Schrute doesn't know how silent auctions work either.
