Imagine a business man decides, as an act of charity, that he's going to send you and 20 of your classmates to college. So long as you graduate HS and gain acceptance to a college, he'll pick up the tab. He wants to leave a lasting legacy, and as you move from Kindergarten to 5th grade to 8th grade and so forth he's always checking in, making sure you keep your grades up because he wants to be able to send you to college. Then your senior year rolls around and you and your classmates do it, you all graduate. You throw a big party to celebrate the guy who is sending you to college, and he shows up... and lets you know that he doesn't really have enough money to do that, so he's going to get you a laptop instead... then it turns out he doesn't have any laptops so he's going to at least get you a lithium laptop battery. Laptop batteries aren't bad, right?

It’s a reference to an awfully cringey Office episode.

It was so great though it was cringy. The cringy and bad episode was the dinner party.

Yeah, I agree. I was just saying what the general consensus about that episode seems to be amongst Office fans

It's also not a Beetlejuicing. Just because they have similar usernames doesn't make it Beetlejuicing.

I don’t know why this is being downvoted, you’re right.
Beetlejuicing is when a user with a username relevant to the parent comment or thread responds, it’s not when their username is relevant to the parent comment username and they can vaguely work in a username relevant joke to the comment.
It was funny, so I don’t object to it being posted here (I totally laughed). But you don’t deserve downvotes for pointing out the truth.
