Dilbert (animation)/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


These things about Dilbert (animation) are subjective - not everyone will agree with all of them.

  • Crosses the Line Twice: Alice marries a death-row inmate and immediately stuffs the gag into his mouth herself before he's executed. It's much more horrifying than it sounds.
  • Everyone Is Jesus in Purgatory: Parodied in a (nun) art expert who insists everything is about barely suppressed sexual urges. It's obvious that she's projecting so hard that they could use her for powerpoint presentations.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight: Comp-U-Comp's boast -- "Have you ever wondered what happens when humans die? I know the answer! All I'm saying is... big surprise!" -- as he's challenging a human in the central command room of his totally automated production plant.
  • Magnificent Bastard: Dogbert, whose "religious belief" is "that everyone exists for the sole purpose of entertaining me." On one episode, he sets up a carnival booth where you "knock a street urchin off a beam with a baseball and win a toy." In another, he convinces Congress to abandon all holidays in favor of National Dogbert Day (The traditional Dogbert Day feast: the bald eagle. He wanted something special) for the sole purpose of being annoying. (The same reason he invented Secretary's Day.)
    • The aptly named Bob Bastard, the caped and hooded company tester on a quest to crush the hopes and dreams of engineers.

Dilbert: I'm sorry Alice, but he's the embodiment of all that's horrid and loathsome in this world.
Alice: Just because it's written on a bathroom wall doesn't mean it's true.
Dilbert: He wrote it!
