I haven't seen an episode since the show ended SIX YEARS AGO, so no I didn't get it right away, yes seeing the reference scene its obvious that's what she was going for but I just didn't get it at first probably because that just wasn't a memorable scene for me. I liked the show, I watched every episode but I don't watch anything more than once, I'm not in the slightest bit lying when I say I didn't understand until I saw someone post the reference photo. Oh no please don't tell Rash that this scene and every other scene isn't permanently imprinted in my mind, I guess she's just such a big super fan and I'm a loser.

I am the LAST person to support anything those two morons do. I agree with 99% of what’s said on this thread. I just think some people reach way too far, and it just gets to a point where it’s like “come on” and that’s what this entire “it doesn’t even look like the office” narrative does for me. Relax, I’m not a fan of hers. Far from it.

Sitting on the floor looks like she´s homeless. At least a small fluffy carpet would change the look of it.
If she wants anything office related but has a baby who looks more than a boy, I would dress her like a secretary. But that smart they aren´t.
Not defending Rachelle because I didn't even get it at first it's that stupid, but it's "The Office" themed, not 'office' themed, "The Office" is an American comedy tv series that they're both (mainly Rash) is obsessed with, she dressed Emma to resemble on of the main characters of the show and try to recreate a scene of the show (but failed )

How did she fail? Any fan of The Office would have gotten that reference as soon as they saw the clues in the picture. I thought it was adorable! They used a common interest they had to do something cute. I'm already annoyed with all her baby stuff, but I thought her announcement was funny and cute! Also, how is it not an original thought about the pants unless someone did it first? That makes zero sense. I get she is such an ass but tearing her down for something as dumb as that shows how she can be doing everything right and y'all will still find her at fault. (Not saying she does everything right, btw) I thought it was pretty cute because Emma was dressed subtle enough to get the reference but not completely copy the character. Had she done all the aspects of that episode you guys would have said she did a complete copy and couldn't make it somewhat original. She literally cannot win with you guys. I am not defending her as a person. I am defending that idea because I thought it was adorable! I'm making that clear before I'm accused of knowing, being a fan or being her.

I was wondering how you got 6 likes on this and accidentally liked it myself
Seriously if you think this is adorable or original I think you found the wrong place. The Office is like a dead horse unoriginal people to try and convince people they have a sense of humor. Literally in sure it WAS cute and funny circa 2013 when the show was still on the air.
It’s not that she can’t do anything right. It’s the fact she’s insufferable and puts her fake happy life up for everyone and censors any and all negative comments.

I never said it doesn't look like The Office I've said several times that I just didnt get it and that I feel like there were so many better themed ideas she could have recreated, its not dig at them as people its just in MY opinion this announcement sucked in relation to the show, there's obviously going to be people who think it's brilliantly done (although let's all be honest she could have put a little more effort in to it) but this isn't a debate on "who knows The Office better" or "Who's the biggest fan" there's a few people here who have seen all of The Office and still didn't get it and that's ok, there's no need to personally attack those people accusing them of lying just because one particular scene didnt stand out to them

I get what you are saying and I agree.. Infind the whole idea weird though because SHE is a fan of the show. Not Emma. So she should be going all Dwight... why drag a baby into this? That's why Emma is a prop.

Look I’ve seen like two episodes of the office and I got it was office themed. But saying it’s “adorable” is dumb. It was half assed and the letters were crooked! The one someone else posted was at least a tad cute.
I’ll stand by this- the show is over let that poor horse die and stop beating it.

Y'all, StaceyLA has been here for a longgggg time and constantly gets asked if she's Justin. It's been confirmed by the mods that she is not. I often don't agree with her and roll my eyes at her posts but really, she's NOT justin OR rash!
anywho. I've been lurking and haven't posted in a few days. I'm just so sick of these two lazy assholes. I agree with a PP, how can justin just bum around and not feel like he needs to be supporting his family in a much more sustainable way?! These two are the most irritating "youtubers" I have ever watched.

Relax, I'm kidding. I agree with others... you have to be a mega fan to get this reference. I love the office, but I didnt get it. If she wants to appeal to masses she has to stop with this Office BS.

Okay, I think you're reaching. I think involving your kid in a gender revea doesn't make her a prop. She's too young to have really specific interests. It's was just a reveal. Don't make it something it's not.

She already used emma in a pumpkin announcement, it's not like its Emma's baby.. why won't they announce? I'd find it funnier if Justin dressed up as Dwight and announced this way... office is an adult show, I dont see how it's cute to involve a baby
Look. Here's the thing. You ALWAYS have a defending tone in regards to r and j. You say you don't like them, but really the only times you post are to tell other people. they're reaching, or to stop talking about something. So that's why you always get the "Justin? Is that you?" question. We all read some ridiculous posts on here, most of us just scroll on by. Of course you're allowed to have your opinions too, but just don't be surprised when it doesn't go over well, because don't like feeling policed.
And just to be completely honest, I think you really do like them. And not that that's a crime or anything, but some of us don't buy it when you say "I don't like 99% of the stuff they do" or "I'm not a fan". Realllllly??? I dunno. I think you want a 50% positive, 50% mild snark forum on r and j. You're in the wrong place.

Yes! I agree 100%. No matter what she posts about it’s almost always in a way that is defending trash. You’d think she’d realize after so many people call her Rash or Justina. I thought she was banned... but here we are.
Everything Rachelle does is so fake that I can’t even believe that Emma made that tweet. So either Rachelle is doing it for some “super cute” omg guys I’m sO sOrRy Emmy got my phone omg how cUtE?!?? Or she leaves her daughter unattended with her phone.
Also... Why the hell is she making that face it’s so not cute and her nostrils look HUGE. And why would you ever hold a child like that? That’s so unsafe...

I’ll never understand the want to go into a trash talk page to defend the people we are trash talking. Like what a waste of their time!
But I’m not convinced it’s NOT Justin. He’s obviously getting in his car, driving to another location (probably a state) making these comments and then driving home. It’s why he’s always so tired!

Please tell me how me making it clear that I'm not a fan of her seems like I like her. Are you dense? I'm literally telling you how I feel yet you get the complete opposite from that? Most people our age love the office now. Yeah, it came out years ago, but we weren't able to watch it on demand because it wasn't on Netflix then. Naturally, more people are able to view it because of that now. Just because I think it's adorable and you don't means I'm wrong. But it's one thing to not be a fan of it and another to say it's horrible. You all reach and dramatize every tiny thing she does. It makes what's being said not even sound real because of how dramatic some of you make it. You can dislike her without exaggerating. If some of the stuff here said is how people really feel, then their feeling towards her are just plain weird. Idk how someone no one has met can make then feel that way. If there was less exaggeration it would make the common "enemy" a lot more fun to talk about.

Literally said that a million times yet you someone get the opposite from that? I have never once told anyone what they can or cannot say. (Besides accusing me of shit, of course). And no, I don't ALWAYS have a defending tone. It's exaggerations like that that make you sound stupid.

I don't have a strong opinion about these people either way, and I don't know if I've ever even commented about them in particular, but yes, some people are HUGE super fans (myself included) - if you're like us (which I assume Rachelle & Justin are), you watch the show over and over again on Netflix. I've probably seen the series in full dozens of times. The minute I saw the photo I knew the reference and I thought it was hilarious and adorable. I showed it to a few friends who also understood and loved the reference. The "It is your birthday" scene is one of the more popular ones. The Office is cult-ish, I fully admit it. My defense of this particular thing is not a defense of them in general, before someone accuses me of being a minion or something lol. Just wanted to chime in as a The Office fanatic

I 100% agree, there's a big difference between people who just watched the show, enjoyed it and left it in the past, and people who still rewatch it over and over again. I honestly think that majority of people who watched The Office as it came out years ago won't get the reference straight away, those that have rewatched each episode are obviously more likely to get it.
If she put a little more effort into it I probably would have got it straight away too, something like this would have been better in my opinion, or using herself and/or Justin instead of Emma, but again that's just my opinion on it all

I think it's hard for those of us who are superfans to realize that not everybody remembers every single thing about the show, BUT I wouldn't necessarily say it was a "fail". It's just something that is an interest to them, and they know it's an interest to a LOT of people, and their intention was probably to make those people laugh, and it probably doesn't really matter to them that not everybody gets it. They get it, a lot of superfans get it, it's all good. And that example you posted is ADORABLE as well. I wish I had been more creative when I was posting my own pregnancy announcements 9 and 5 years ago!

I don't have a strong opinion about these people either way, and I don't know if I've ever even commented about them in particular, but yes, some people are HUGE super fans (myself included) - if you're like us (which I assume Rachelle & Justin are), you watch the show over and over again on Netflix. I've probably seen the series in full dozens of times. The minute I saw the photo I knew the reference and I thought it was hilarious and adorable. I showed it to a few friends who also understood and loved the reference. The "It is your birthday" scene is one of the more popular ones. The Office is cult-ish, I fully admit it. My defense of this particular thing is not a defense of them in general, before someone accuses me of being a minion or something lol. Just wanted to chime in as a The Office fanatic
I 100% agree, there's a big difference between people who just watched the show, enjoyed it and left it in the past, and people who still rewatch it over and over again. I honestly think that majority of people who watched The Office as it came out years ago won't get the reference straight away, those that have rewatched each episode are obviously more likely to get it.
If she put a little more effort into it I probably would have got it straight away too, something like this would have been better in my opinion, or using herself and/or Justin instead of Emma, but again that's just my opinion on it all

When I said "fail" I mostly was referring to the lack of effort she put in the photo, Its obvious that she rushed the photo instead of planning it, I wish she had of added some sad balloons or the "streamers" or even just lined up the banner properly, to me the photo just screams "rushed" and "no prepartion" which is fine, but I just think she could have done better and in doing so paid not justice to the show she loves so much.
anyway I think we've all spent enough time arguing about her twin announcement, some like it, some don't I think a can all move on now

but really, she's NOT justin OR rash!
