i really hate how tim plays so many pranks on gareth. gareth actually seems like a really nice guy. when gareth gets a phone call from his friends, or when his friends came to visit, tim looks at the camera as if to say 'gareth is an idiot'. gets really annoying. tim will play jokes on gareth, get rather loud doing it interrupting the whole office yet that one time gareth got that talking cop/cookie jar thing and was having a little fun it looked like he was going to die or something because it was so terrible.
it was funny seeing tim get grabbed by all those guys at the dance bar and they took his shoe. he was so mad yet if people did that to gareth i bet he'd join in and laugh. he's a pretty rude guy. like how that chubby guy was talking to him and he just looks at the camera like he's so much better than the guy. plus he bugs gareth all day along with dawn yet when that pregnant woman sat by him and would try talking to him once again he was so rude.
he's a prick and almost hate the show because of it -

"i really hate how tim plays so many pranks on gareth. gareth actually seems like a really nice guy."
What's nice about Gareth? (The one who thinks crippled people should have pins stuck in their legs to see if they're really qualified to claim a disability allowance.)
What's nice about the pregnant woman? (The one who tricked someone at Disneyland Paris into believing her son was terminally ill so she wouldn't have to wait in a queue to go on Space Mountain. And possibly jump ahead of children who really
were
terminally ill.)
I say Tim is great. -

Getting his own back on Gareth is how Tim manages to get some job satisfaction. Let's not pretend that Gareth isn't a power-hungry toady drunk on his own self-importance, let alone deeply intolerant at times. Imagine working with someone like that every week for years on end.
Now if we're handing out douchebag awards, then his American counterpart, Jim, is much more deserving. From what I've seen, he's selfish and downright cruel to Dwight. I don't remember Tim destroying Gareth's property or outright assaulting him! It doesn't help that Dwight seems slightly less obnoxious than Gareth, if a little harder to believe as a character. -

Tim put down the working class, showing that he's a complete snob, yet he lived with his parents and only went to college for one year. His pranks were mostly just childish ways to get Gareth to sound or appear gay. Say what you will about Jim, but at least he was creative when he took the piss. I liked Tim, but he was a prick.

No offense; but you're the idiot. The guy you replied to said JIM was worst. Then you went off at him and confirmed JIM was the worst. Well done.

The Office is awesome, but that said, pretty much all the main characters are self-serving and unlikeable. For the most part, that's the joke.
Tim, who is introduced as a sort of long-suffering voice of sanity, is no exception. I thought he was a fkn pr*ck personally.
Not sticking up for Gareth in any way shape or form, however.
Oh yeah, and the pregnant woman: I thought she was fit. Obnoxious, but fit. -

Whoever say Tim is mean, a prick etc., while Gareth is okay, or the pregnant woman is a good person etc., are missing the point, and shouldn't watch The Office at all. It's not for them. They don't get it as a whole. The creators would be ashamed.
You almost hate the show because you don't understand it. You can only enjoy certain jokes of it.
Tim portrays the archetype of nice guy, Gareth the likeable childish idiot, the pregnant woman the unlikeable selfish idiot. -

Are you kidding me, you semi-literate dipstick?

Tim is basically an underachiever, he admits that himself. He has got himself into a dead end spot and doesn't have the guts to do anything about it. Gareth may be a bit of a tosser but he feels a lot more at see with himself. One thing that really bugs me about Tim is how he is always having a go at Gareth being in the territorial army ( the reserve army I guess as I'm not British ). At least Gareth is doing something to try and protect his nation, Tim does nothing but have a go at others while doing nothing with his own life.
