Shirley: Mother hen? I think we’re about the same age.
Britta: Sure, unless time is linear.
Shirley: I’ll make your ass linear!
Britta: That doesn’t make any sense!
Shirley: I’LL MAKE YOUR ASS SENSE!

Top 50 Favorite TV-characters | 17. Shirley Bennett (Yvette Nicole Brown, Community)

Things Community needs more of: Shirley. Yvette N. Brown just nails every line and reaction shot, and I love the two completely different sides to Shirley. I even like her judgmental side, firstly because I think it adds to her characters, even more so when she tries not to be, and secondly because she’ll support her friends anyway.
AND IF YOU DON’T LIKE HER, SHE’LL COME AT YOU WITH A PIZZA SLICER.
