I’m just going to let these speak for themselves. I’ve never quite known WHY Troy is obsessed with butts, but I DO know that it is delightful. I learned that back in Dirty Dancing when Penny said “God didn’t give you maracas if he didn’t want you to SHAKE EM.” It’s one of the best things about having boobs, really. Hence, the comparison makes perfect sense. He also has a very Forrest Gump-ian way of putting things in a way we can understand his meaning perfectly. That was when I knew there was more to Troy Barnes than what we were seeing. You should try accepting where you’re at, man.” “I don’t know about you, but I know I ended up here because things weren’t that great out there. One of my favorite Troy moments (and Troy episodes, really) comes from season one’s “Football, Feminism, and You” where Troy says THIS to Jeff right before the pep rally: Troy just says what is on his mind…whether it’s something laughably dumb or incredibly profound. I think it is because he is so refreshingly filter-free. Like many characters who are played as quite dim, Troy can be unexpectedly wise. “All tomato” and “escape goat” are SO MUCH BETTER.Īlso, imagine what the English language would look like if Troy Barnes and Joey were friends. Personally, I will never use the phrases “ultimatum” or “scapegoat” again. Especially when it’s made by my future husband, Rich.Īnd who HASN’T eyed the giant cookies on display at the mall and wanted to eat the entire thing? Only me? Oh…īut mostly, Troy just wants to make HIS food, you know? Troy, like most 20-something dudes, tends to think with his stomach. Thank you for being emotionally fragile and a vessel for fangirls across the world to express THEIR emotions. You want to hug him and laugh at him at the same time.Īnd no post “Soul Crushing Episode of Television” meltdown on Twitter is complete without the following two gifs.īut seriously…what did a fangirl DO before the phrase “my whole brain is crying” was in our lexicon? So thank you, Troy. What’s even better about Troy and his emotions is that he purports himself to be this big tough jock when deep down he’s just a giant crybaby. I truly believe that Donald is at his funniest when Troy is having an emotional meltdown. It’s a well documented fact that one cannot properly fangirl without a Troy Barnes crying gif, as I properly proved in my intro. So let’s get right to the Troy appreciation, shall we? And I will always be appreciative to him for bringing Troy to life in such a wonderful way. Because Troy is special and the work that Donald did on the show is spectacular. It IS our business to treasure the 4.5 seasons he DID give us as Troy Barnes. But the fact is this: we’ll never truly know what drove Donald to leave Community, and you know what? It’s not our business to know. How DARE Donald Glover, a human being with emotions and issues, mess up my favorite show? How DARE he want to pursue other projects when we fought so hard for season five? I had all of those feelings and I am still processing them. I STILL have some anger about it…but that’s the thing about being a fan we get a sense of entitlement. I must confess I had a lot of anger towards Donald Glover about the whole thing. No more Troy and Abed in the mooooooooooooooooooooorning? But Troy…? I couldn’t see how the show could go ON without him. I thought Community would get by fine without Pierce, even though he would be missed. I had a good and proper meltdown when it was announced over the summer that Donald Glover would be leaving the show after 5 episodes.
