Why does anyone like Michael Scott?

Why does The Office not understand that it's saying good-bye to Michael Scott, not to Steve Carell? Why does it assume everyone loves Steve Carell? Why am I supposed to care about Michael Scott's love life? Why have I been supposed to care about it for several years? Why is Jim an ass now? Why does Pam do and say everything wrong?

Why was I supposed to pretend that Erin was cute and funny, instead of desperately inept and possibly deficient? Why didn't Gabe make any sense ever? Why was Timothy Olyphant (which I initially misspelled "Oliphaunt," because "Olyphant" is no less ridiculous and Tolkien is awesome) there for a couple of weeks for no reason? Why did that make Jim and Pam even worse than they had already become?

Why is this show no longer funny at all?

Why did you keep watching after 2007?

Also, Ellie Kemper went to Princeton, so shut up.
