Angela Martin is one of the most hilarious characters on The Office even if she isn’t always talked about as such. As the most tightly wound, judgemental employee of Dunder Mifflin Scranton, she would often be the shadiest character of all. While Angela was often quiet, she would always pipe up with some scathing or judging comment that was mean but also hilarious.
Angela definitely wasn’t the kindest employee, and she was often the most hypocritical. But, her excellent shade makes her one of the funniest characters on the show. Here’s a list of 10 of Angela’s shadiest quotes from The Office.
10. “SOMETIMES THE CLOTHES AT GAP KIDS ARE JUST TOO FLASHY…”
If there’s one thing Angela can never stop talking about, it’s the fact that she has a really tiny figure. Angela dresses like a grandmother sometimes and is all about covering up and being modest.
This is probably why she hilariously finds Gap Kids too flashy and attention-grabbing for her. Instead, she goes on to say, “I’m forced to go the American Girl store and order clothes for large colonial dolls.” Given some of Angela’s outfits, it makes a lot of sense that she wears American Girl doll clothes.
9. “IT’S NOT MY FAULT I WAS EXPOSED TO HARRY POTTER.”
Angela is also often the archetype of a Christian person who is very extreme about their religion. Angela is the type of religious person who is super judgemental but also really hypocritical seeing as how she has affairs with Dwight even as she dates other people.
This quote reveals her conservative views in a hilarious way. She is forced to play the character of “Voodoo Mama Juju” during the Murder in Savannah game. While in character, she blames her magic on Harry Potter.
8. “IF YOU PRAY ENOUGH YOU CAN CHANGE YOURSELF INTO A CAT PERSON.”
This quote is both a play on words and a hilarious moment. Angela says this line to Oscar, who is a gay man, so it definitely comes across as her saying Oscar can change his sexuality, too. But, on the surface level, it’s also just really funny as Angela is such a cat person that she really can’t stand anyone who loves dogs.
While Angela’s treatment of Oscar and many other of her co-workers might have been awful at times, this is definitely one of her funniest and shadiest quotes.
7. “I’M VERY SENSITIVE ABOUT MY PETITE FIGURE.”
This is another example of Angela being really vocal about how small and petite she is. Of course, this can come off as just bragging about the fact that she is so tiny.
Kelly Kapoor definitely finds all of Angela’s quotes about her tiny figure to be particularly annoying, and we don’t blame her. This is a good example of the way that Angela could be both passive aggressive and full of shade at the same time.
6. “IF YOU EVER PUT SUNBLOCK ON A WINDOW YOU MIGHT BE MICHAEL SCOTT.”
While Angela might not be a person who likes to identify herself as humorous, she could be really funny at times. Angela’s more overt humor usually comes out when she is annoyed about something or someone such as the case with this line about Michael Scott.
She says this during the Michael roast and reveals she can be pretty funny and insightful. Of course, Michael doesn’t appreciate everyone roasting him, even though he asked them to, which makes this even funnier.
5. “THE THOUGHT OF POPPING ONE OF YOUR BEETS INTO MY MOUTH MAKES ME WANT TO VOMIT.”
Angela might like to pretend that she is a very prudish person, but we all know that isn’t actually the case. Her and Dwight have a highly sexual relationship for many years on the show, and she even continues to sleep with him even after starting to date Andy and later the Senator. She says this hilarious quote that has a lot of innuendo to Dwight after he kills her cat and they break up.
4. “IT’S NOT A SURPRISE TO ME. PAM IS THE OFFICE MATTRESS.”
Angela can be kind of a huge hypocrite at times. She really likes to slut shame other people, even as she herself often participates in behavior that many would view as morally wrong.
For some strange but funny reason, she perceives Pam Beesly as being someone who sleeps around in the office, even though that’s not the case. This quote is super shady, and while not true, it’s also pretty funny since Angela is so judgemental about everyone.
3. “NO, ORANGE IS WHORISH.”
Angela is often at her worst and most vicious when it comes to the party planning committee. She lords over Phyllis during this time and has lots of opinions on what makes a good party and what doesn’t.
She’s very vocal about which colors she considers to be associated with promiscuity. Orange is at the top of the list as well as green which she calls whorish in season one.
2. “I DON’T BACK DOWN.”
This quote is one Angela says when talking about her feud with Phyllis. She then proceeds to talk about a fight she’s had with her sister for years over something she doesn’t even remember.
Angela clearly holds grudges and likes to continue being shady even when it’s against her best interest, but this is what makes her character so hilarious to watch.
1.“I DON’T HAVE A HEADACHE. I’M JUST PREPARING.”
Angela is easily annoyed by the people around her which is fairly valid given the fact that many of her coworkers can be difficult at times.
However, Angela is also very difficult. Angela is always prepared to be annoyed by the people around her, and she isn’t afraid to let them know about it. While Angles might be the worst at times, she luckily always makes us laugh.
