I think one reason It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia resonates with people is because it doesn’t try to present a sitcom reality in which things are always okay and work out, where conflicts are always resolved and where the characters are quirky but not dysfunctional. The Sunny characters are fucked up and they deal with their fucked-up-ness in fucked up ways and often those fucked-up ways are the only ways they have available.

And I think for some people it’s oddly comforting to see that reality displayed on a screen. 

If you’ve had an experience in your life where you’ve had to deal with a broken system or where you’ve realized that the only things available to help you cope are imperfect at best or fucked up at worst, if you’ve ever looked around and realized what you got isn’t fair but there’s no way to rectify it….then this show will resonate with you. It makes you feel seen, in some odd way. The way that love and care genuinely exists alongside hurt and trauma and bad decisions and bad circumstances. And it’s all mixed up so you can’t even pull apart if you wanted to. And people don’t get it, so you don’t even try to explain it. And it’s a little fucked up, you know that, but it’s also so good sometimes, and that’s what people don’t get. And, for better or worse, it’s yours. It makes you feel like oh I wasn’t crazy when everyone was acting like I could fix this if I just followed the right steps, but none of those steps actually exists in the way they think it does. And then you just have to laugh, you know? Because this shit is funny and life is funny and it’s good, honestly, it is still good, even when you’re crying, even when it sucks. Something something it’s always sunny even when it’s not, you know? 

Or idk maybe you’re just a dudebro who thinks dArK hUmOuR is funny. I’m not gonna tell you how to live your life. 

mac being mean to dennis for 2 minutes and 23 seconds <3

mac x air quotes

thinking about season 5 and rcg writing macdennis romantic on purpose and saying on the commentary for break up that they’re gay they’re clearly gay they’re closeted homosexuals and dennis getting hate crimed at his frat and then at the very start of the next season his immediate reaction to mac saying gay marriage is wrong is that he should be married and looking at mac when he says I don’t love you maureen I never loved you and glenn on set for that exact scene in the kitchen jokingly going to kiss rob because the subtext of the scene they’re filming is that dennis loves mac more than he could ever love a woman and it’s always been on PURPOSE and ouuuyggghhhhhhhhj I’m unzipped

Y'know what’s epic? Doing these shots, going out there, and dancing.
