Are you a fan of the brilliant British television comedy The IT Crowd by Graham Linehan? Do you frequently feel the need to vent because of impossible users, clients or people in general? I think it is important these two demographics have an appropriate outlet and since I enjoy efficiency, how about a twofer?
"People, what a bunch of bastards."
— Chris O'Dowd as Roy Trenneman
As if that was not entertaining enough, Pam made a request for a version including her favorite Moss quote. Who am I to refuse a request like that?
"I like being weird. Weird's all I've got. That and my sweet style."
— Richard Ayoade as Maurice Moss
The sound clips are available to download via the Reynholm Industries logo on each page. I might be up for another one; suggest your favorite Jen Barber quotes and I can complete what may as well be a trifecta.

"I came here to drink milk and kick ass. And I've just finished my milk."
— Richard Ayoade as Maurice Moss
2011-07-10 — Taking Pam up on her suggestions in the comments, I found a great albeit longer quote from Jen and also added Douglas Reynholm to the mix. Ladies and gentlemen I'd like to present to you…
"Wouldn't it be better if I could actually bring one of these wonders in to show you it? Say oh, I don't know um, The Internet! I think it would and I have! Ladies and gentlemen I'd like to present to you, The Internet! Oh please no flash photography, you'll harm The Internet."
— Katherine Parkinson as Jen Barber
"You there, computer man. Fix my pants."
— Matt Berry as Douglas Reynholm

"You'd better put seatbelts on your ears, Roy, 'cause I'm going to take them for the ride of their lives."
— Richard Ayoade as Maurice Moss
2011-09-12 — This amusing addition is for Marta in San Jose, California via Marc by SMS request.
"You've got big balls, Roy."

Love the milk quote!
For Jen, you could do something from the episode where she has to do a speech on the internet (the black box with the red blinking light that Moss and Roy give her).

Also, don't forget about Douglas, creepy sex-crazed boss! He's got some crazy quotes.
