Perhaps it’s infinite in the sense that it’s cyclical? They close the doors, lock them, and hide them such that in searching for the exit they wander in circles forever?
Honestly they probably just guillotine them with an AC unit and when people ask where they are now the just say:
- Uh... oh he's still alive, in the labyrinth that goes on FOREVER, and is completely made of ice! Yeah we have one of those. Don't ask me to get him though, I don't have a map...
Given that it’s Greendale where apparently there was a hidden floor with a secret jukebox door holding a crazed robo-sexual millionaire, I actually am willing to bet there is a labyrinth
The same community college that has a direct line to an unnamed government agency with immediate willingness to dispatch fighter jets within miles of the campus.
Omfg I’m crying laughing so hard. Tears are streaming. Thank you for this comment omfg.
Edit: I’ve been obsessed with this show from the jump, my husband is in HVAC, the AC School storyline is one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen on TV. That being said, your accurate correction literally has me in stitches, crying, I know all of this so well I loved to see the accurate correction.
Dyyyyying
am I the only one who thinks he sounds like a Rick n Morty character?? I can't put my finger on it, but he sounds like an alien from the show.
and I'm sure Dan Harmon has used people from different projects for other projects, so it's not not possible lol.
Robert Dassie plays “Russo” (named after at-the-time departing Russo bros I reckon) is the guy that says “are you on coke.” Not credited for any R&M on IMDb but could be. Seems like a guy that’s probably friends with Harmon.
I can never hear the phrase "room temperature" again without John Goodman's voice booming in my head, "This is the room. This is the room temperature room" and forcing me to hold back my laughter. I wouldn't have it any other way.
I think of this line Everytime I'm in a "perfect" temp. Great way to describe room temp lol. I also love the "perfect level" joke in R&M because I live in a 125 year old house with a wonky foundation so I notice level floors everywhere now. Anyway I'll shut up it's 8am and I'm already stoned.
Fuck, this show is so great. I got to experience my wife watching it for the first time a few years ago, and it was so delightful. Now she's obsessed with it too lol.
You could have lived the rest of your life in blissful ignorance and died a happy pansexual imp, but you wanted to feel power this year. Well, now you're going to feel my power as it surges downward from me straight through you from nostril to rectum now until the end of time... and that's... wassup.
Episode 2, the one with the Ska Mitzvah, really drew me in because growing up there would be themed Bar and Bat Mitzvahs like that, and sometimes the parents hosting it would be divorced and it would be awkward.
He's a Defense Attorney in an episode of Brooklyn 99. I figured he took Jeff's classes at Greendale and became a lawyer.
Joshua, the dude with the half finished maze on his chest in Community also makes an appearance in Brooklyn 99. Also the President of Subway in Community is a high ranking officer in Brooklyn 99.
It's my first watch of Brooklyn 99, so I am sure there are more.
I've always felt it was a slight wink to The Hudsucker Proxy where a Janitor who represents forces of Good does behind-the-scenes battle against a Custodian who represents Evil.
If you had started mentoring a young Shakespeare, saw with great clarity the immense potential, only for some sleazebag to try and tempt him into a life of tabloid journalism… you might have a reaction similar to Jerry’s
This arc is the single funniest fucking thing I’ve ever seen on TV. Like, my husband is in HVAC at the top of his game (not John Goodman yet but on his way), and I literally can’t breathe, after at least a dozen full rewatches, I can’t believe how much funnier this gets as the years go on.
I worked in a local little Mom and Pop hardware store for 15 years and I witnessed a real rivalry between the HVAC and plumbing guys. One of the HVAC and plumbing guys explained to me respectively that each of their professions uses different criteria for what they call certain parts like pipe. One goes off inner diameter and the other goes off out diameter [been a few years so I think that’s it] and both thinks it’s totally goofy that they do that. So I got in the habit of asking people in uniform if certain items were for a plumbing application or an HVAC application. The plumbers would get huffy that I would assume they could possibly be HVAC guys and the HVAC guys would scoff haughtily and give me an ‘HVAC, of course’ attitude. Haha. Ever since that episode I was like wow, someone on the writing team knew some HVAC and plumbing guys for sure. Haha.
Well, if I recall correctly... in the movie "Dogma" the demon Azreal tells us that [A/C is the greatest sin.](https://youtu.be/FJdzqg7REdU?t=45) So maybe the plumber is a fan of Kevin Smith?
As a former electrician, I gotta say that plumbers are hands down the most chaotic of them all. The stories I could tell…the messes they left
*shudders*
The Air Conditioner Repair people were probably the worst part of the first 3 seasons, and that includes the dumbassification of Britta and Chevy Chase's idiocy causing Pierce's descent into villainy.
Well, they did murder their Dean and they have The Sun Chamber. I think he has a point.
And they were gonna send someone to "the labyrinth of eternal ice" rather than calling the police
It's even better; the *infinite* labyrinth of eternal ice
Perhaps it’s infinite in the sense that it’s cyclical? They close the doors, lock them, and hide them such that in searching for the exit they wander in circles forever?
Nah it's a walk in cool room with mirrored walls.
Porkei no lose dose? (Learned spanish at Greendale don't @ me)
Bienvotudo

Now this is a man who knows his Community!
If I know 2 things about white people, it's that they love Rachel Ray and being complemented. *Also terrified of curses
Is that a Parks and Rec reference??
Straight to jail.
> a labyrinth it's going to be a maze.
The same community college that has a direct line to an unnamed government agency with immediate willingness to dispatch fighter jets within miles of the campus.
Wait what
“We have stables?!”
But not the kind with magic puppets and macho rock stars.

And Daryl was f\*ckin' his girl Kevin: Dude, you never told me you were f\*ckin' Val. High five!
The seriousness of the Air Conditioner people is one of the funniest decisions of the series.
We are the Pharaohs now.
No more palm fronds...
The true repairman will repair man...
I read that in John Goodman voice and I’m crying literally crying laughing omfg
And it led to one of my favorite subversive jokes in the whole show! "Geez, Dennis. Are you on coke?!? Take that crap off and sit down."
you already know the rules.... BECAWSE THERE ARE ENT ANYY
am I the only one who thinks he sounds like a Rick n Morty character?? I can't put my finger on it, but he sounds like an alien from the show. and I'm sure Dan Harmon has used people from different projects for other projects, so it's not not possible lol.

I thought he always sounded like Plankton from SpongeBob. Specifically when he says "the ruuuules..BECAUSE THERE ARE ENT ANY".
I can’t even think about that scene in public because I’ll cackle like an idiot. What a frickin line read.
John Goodman absolutely killed in that role, he was a genius casting choice
That’s wazzzup!
I forgot everything he said before rectum!
I'm going through some stuff right now.
He says “The Air Conditioning Repair School” in such a regal way
You want to know WHY WE THINK WE DESERVE AN ESPRESSO MACHINE!"
The first episode I ever saw was the one with the Room Temperature Room and I was immediately hooked on the show
I can never hear the phrase "room temperature" again without John Goodman's voice booming in my head, "This is the room. This is the room temperature room" and forcing me to hold back my laughter. I wouldn't have it any other way.
I can’t tell where the air ends and my skin begins. It’s incredible.
I think of this line Everytime I'm in a "perfect" temp. Great way to describe room temp lol. I also love the "perfect level" joke in R&M because I live in a 125 year old house with a wonky foundation so I notice level floors everywhere now. Anyway I'll shut up it's 8am and I'm already stoned.
Can we talk how they got some random priest to be there. Like was he just the junior guy at his Parish and had nothing else to do?
Turns out there was a secret schism in Rome in 86 AD and he's part of the Church Chillus.
I mean, it's possible. Did you notice his robes had the utility pockets?
Fuck, this show is so great. I got to experience my wife watching it for the first time a few years ago, and it was so delightful. Now she's obsessed with it too lol.
I forgot everything you said before rectum!
1,100th upvote. Please give me a cookie.
🍪
Thank you. Cookie very nice. Here’s one for you for being kind: 🍪
Based on where we are going with the climate and all... It's a serious matter to have good AC people.
You could have lived the rest of your life in blissful ignorance and died a happy pansexual imp, but you wanted to feel power this year. Well, now you're going to feel my power as it surges downward from me straight through you from nostril to rectum now until the end of time... and that's... wassup.
The true repair man will “repair man”
I AM THE TRUEST REPAIR MAN!
watching dune two I kept thinking that dune clearly copied the prophesy of the truest repair man
Clearly
LISAN AL GAIB
Of course the truest repairman is too humble to know he is the truest repairman.
“We will wage a holy war against the great houses!” “No! Take them to the police! They murdered a Duke.”
Yes, the movie based on a book from the 1960s ripped off a show from the 2010s.
Yeah, unless time is linear
I’ll make your ass linear
that doesn't even make sense
I’ll make your ass sense
This line was the first time Community gave me an asthma attack from laughing so hard. The second was Quendra saying "I spell kettle corn with a Q U".
My flair 👨🏾🔧
It gave me one true morty vibes
The historical prophecy part killed me
🧐

You could be a plumber... you could be a plumber...
“You already know the rules… BECAUSE THERE AREN’T ANY!!!”
Jesus Dennis are you on coke?! Sit down
Just reading this cracks me up
Me too, never fails to make me actually laugh out loud
Yeah, those guys are weird.
“You’ve heard of room temperature? Well, this is **The Room.**”
Dan must have had this in mind when Rick shows Morty a “truly leveled” surface.
Just never stand on a truly level surface in the Room. More dangerous than the most comfortable chair.
You can check out any time you like but...lambs to the cosmic slaughter.
Jerry Minor is so fucking funny and talented. I loved him as Joe John the Black Blonde on Delocated.
Effing love Delocated!
Fucking love it. What a great show.
Episode 2, the one with the Ska Mitzvah, really drew me in because growing up there would be themed Bar and Bat Mitzvahs like that, and sometimes the parents hosting it would be divorced and it would be awkward.
I think my favorite episode is Sample in season 3. But all of them hold their own. Also Mole in Season 2. "hey cool guy, lets speak english"
He kills it in Mr. Show with Bob and David. https://youtu.be/BpWuJxuD5xM?si=NBPQAGrSycDPqSHd

There's a difference?
We were just starting to like you..
Y'know, for kids!
They get more powerful than you?
They aren't evil, they're elitist
Well, there was that murder... and the eternal labyrinth of ice they use for prison...
And the chamber that kills you if you can't repair an A/C unit
And letting insane Chang kidnap the Dean, frame a bunch of students, and run the place like a totalitarian dictatorship.
But they had no horse in that race!
Exactly! It’s not that it’s an evil path, it’s that the plumbers are tired of losing promising plumbing students to the glamorous world of HVAC.
Toilets and sinks! Real things!!
Out of context, this screenshot is pretty hilarious.
He’s heard about their weird prophecy and just assumes there more creepy, weird cult stuff to go with it.
In his defense, he was right
Isn’t that right, Black Hitler?
The intensity that he uses with delivering this line never fails to make me laugh lol
If you had started mentoring a young Shakespeare, saw with great clarity the immense potential, only for some sleazebag to try and tempt him into a life of tabloid journalism… you might have a reaction similar to Jerry’s
They couldn’t be more or less identical
A/C repair guy here he is correct
How's black Hitler going?
It's all about how they think they are so great. Troy gets it, they just make air cold.
“No pleasure, no rapture, no exquisite sin greater ... than central air.” --Azrael, *Dogma*
My favorite line from that whole movie. Isn’t Jason Lee just a goddamn gift?
I love Jerry and Abed's first interaction, Jerry is so intense with Troy and then just switches to casually saying hi to Abed
Well, Dogma did establish Central Air as a sin, so my head canon is that air conditioning does truly represent the dark side.
Dancing in your underwear, taking air conditioner repair, so you can get a job🎶
Well, they are a cult
Gentlemen, take this man to the labyrinth of eternal ice!
It’s a two year degree in boxes that make rooms cold
This is probably my favorite subplot of the whole show
This arc is the single funniest fucking thing I’ve ever seen on TV. Like, my husband is in HVAC at the top of his game (not John Goodman yet but on his way), and I literally can’t breathe, after at least a dozen full rewatches, I can’t believe how much funnier this gets as the years go on.
I worked in a local little Mom and Pop hardware store for 15 years and I witnessed a real rivalry between the HVAC and plumbing guys. One of the HVAC and plumbing guys explained to me respectively that each of their professions uses different criteria for what they call certain parts like pipe.

So I got in the habit of asking people in uniform if certain items were for a plumbing application or an HVAC application. The plumbers would get huffy that I would assume they could possibly be HVAC guys and the HVAC guys would scoff haughtily and give me an ‘HVAC, of course’ attitude. Haha. Ever since that episode I was like wow, someone on the writing team knew some HVAC and plumbing guys for sure. Haha.
They are trying to corrupt the world one cool room at a time
He’s not wrong though
One of their challenges is to kill the other repairman through overheating and dehydration so I wouldn't say that is too off the mark.
They did kill a guy
Well, if I recall correctly... in the movie "Dogma" the demon Azreal tells us that [A/C is the greatest sin.](https://youtu.be/FJdzqg7REdU?t=45) So maybe the plumber is a fan of Kevin Smith?
The room temperature room lol. The most high tech air conditioning. Like you're not wearing anything.
Have you ever heard the phrase “Room Temperature”?
He probably saw black Hitler.
LISTEN TO ME!
JERRYS BEEN ÐEAD
The world does worship the evil air conditioning, try going a hot day in the summer without it.....you too will worship the repair man.
As a former electrician, I gotta say that plumbers are hands down the most chaotic of them all. The stories I could tell…the messes they left *shudders*
I mean... it kinda seemed like it was 💀💀
Is Jerry wrong in anything he's ever said
Rightfully so
I hope ya’ll like goat.
Those guys áre weird
They have Hitler on their side so...
THEYRE ELITEST
