Today, we pay homage to one of our favorite Dunder Mifflin employees, Dwight Schrute. Here are 10 of the Dwightiest moments of The Office.

Dwight decorates for Kelly’s birthday party.

Complete with partially blown up grey and brown balloons to match the carpet, a straight to the point banner, and a “nap or tv” theme, this party is oozing with Schrute-ness.

After Stanley’s heart attack, the Scranton branch undergoes CPR training. Those amateurs couldn’t handle it when they lost their victim, but Dwight knew what to do! Quickly harvest the organs with your handy hunting knife, duh.

10 of the Most Embarrassing Moments from The Office

Dwight teaches fire safety.

Dwight: “Last week I gave a fire safety talk, and nobody paid attention. It’s my own fault for using Powerpoint. Powerpoint is boring. People learn in lots of different ways, but experience is the best teacher. Today, smoking is going to SAVE lives.” True that.

Watch chaos ensue as Dwight simulates a fire in the office here.

Dwight and Angela learn about homosexuality from Toby.

After Angela discovers that her husband was having an affair with Oscar, Dwight takes her to HR so that they can learn more about the psyche of gay men. He asks hard hitting questions including, “Where does gayness come from and how is it transmitted?”

See the intense Q&A here.

He is an all-star at snowball fights.

Not only do we see that Dwight has disguises to portray each of his coworkers (after all, you never know when you will need to bear a passing resemblance to someone), but he teaches us a most important holiday lesson: In the end, the greatest snowball isn’t a snowball at all: it’s fear. Merry Christmas!

He is a master of self defense and a protector of his coworkers.

Not only has Dwight Kurt Schrute been studying karate for years (as well as leading yearly seminars to update his colleagues on what’s new in the world of Karate), but he has an arsenal of weapons stashed around the office to protect everyone. His arsenal includes, that we know of, throwing stars, nunchucks, crossbow, swords, and pepper spray. Whether it’s protecting Scranton as the secretary of Knights of the Night, chasing down the parking lot flasher, disengaging a man whom he has wronged, whacking moles, or stopping possible irate colleagues from attacking each other, Dwight is prepared.

In addition to the paper business, Dwight also dabbles in Agritourism.

Dwight is the soul proprietor of Schrute Farms, a 40-acre beet farm that happens to host events and overnight guests. Do not be so naive as to dub this establishment as a mere bed and breakfast. This is a top notch agritourism destination. Agritourism is a complex industry that involves showing people around, giving them a bed, and giving them breakfast…

Here are some highlight’s from Jim and Pam’s romantic getaway to Schrute farms.

And here is a demonstration of a classy Schrute Farms garden party.

Dwight is not afraid to call out the media.

While completing a phone interview with a local radio host – cough cough – about the company, he was not afraid to call out her baseless accusations as slander. He was also willing to remove his pants and shirt to make certain that his message was heard loud and clear. Even when he needed to talk David Wallace down from a hostage situation, Dwight did not break a sweat or let false information about Dunder Mifflin get out there. All in all, his first interview went pretty much as he envisioned.

Dwight helped Michael brave the elements.

After not being invited to on Ryan’s cool retreat (shut up, Toby), Michael decides to find himself in the wilderness. While Michael was clearly incapable, Dwight was more than prepared and watched Michael from afar to ensure that his dignity remained intact. He would let him die of course, but not let him lose his dignity.

Check out Michael’s survival video here.

He’s stellar with the ladies…

I mean, come on: the man exudes sex. He is so good that the uber conservative Angela insists on boinking both in and out of the office (both with and without a notarized contract) using a bobble head as a sexy-time signal, he drives Pam’s beautiful and socially normal cousin crazy after a night of love making, woos an entire female collegiate basketball team, and steals the heart of a real milk milkmaid.
