" The Office" would not exist without Jim Halpert and Dwight Schrute. Yes, this is a proven fact (well, an extremely strong opinion of my own, but I'm sure it is an opinion shared by many). These two and their dumb adventures/pranks/conversations have given me more laughs than I can count. Do I know most of their back and forth dialogue by heart? Why yes I do.
Here is walk-through guide to the love/hate relationship of Jim and Dwight:
Once, Jim convinced Dwight that he was a completely different person altogether.
Oh, it wasn't true. The Halpert's just hired a family friend, Steve, to pretend to be Jim for a day.
Jim also convinced Dwight (AKA the volunteer sheriff's deputy) that he did drugs.
...And yes, he fell for it.
After years of working together, it seemed like they didn't know that much about one another.
Close, but it's definitely Cece.
Despite the fact that Dwight got bested by Jim a lot, Dwight possessed the confidence of... another very confident man.
# optimism
Dwight also tends to take snowball fights a little too far.
...and is always very cautious when driving with someone. Specifically Jim.
...and rightly so.
Even though Jim wasn't the best driver, at least he was very imaginative when making up names for improvised customer service calls.
What a name.
He is also very talented when it comes to dressing up dogs to look like Dwight.
Who wore it best?
Once and only once, Jim was in charge of printing out ID tags for the employees.
Doesn't Dwight Fart Schrute sound way better?
Even while at the Stamford branch of Dunder Mifflin, Jim kept up with pranking Dwight.
Pranking made Jim feel more at home in his new environment. Without Dwight, Jim wouldn't have anyone worth pranking. Without Jim, Dwight would have far less excitement in his life.
When it comes down to it, they have each other's back.
Despite their constant bickering and rivalry, Dwight and Jim will always be (even though they didn't care to admit it):
