And then I heard thunder and the ghost started talking about seizing power and destroying his enemies.

"And who's this hearne guy the ghost's talking about?"

Grey hugging Groomba while hiding under his desk is adorable.

For a while, I worked desk work for a company in a warehouse. Lots of us were in the storage area. I referred to the desks there as being "in the garage" because we got to smell the exhaust from the forklifts. The boss complained, until I told him I'd stop calling it "working in the garage" when he stopped parking his car in the same room as my desk.

I’m so glad this finally got animated. One of my favorite Cortex moments😂

I think part of this is like a "best of" for an episode. So, we'd have to wait 8 more months for the next animated cortex episode... Maybe in 18 months we'll get the, "oh my God, I'm melting. I thought it would be okay because being underground is cooler, but I forgot that I have 18 concrete floors of radiating heat above me."

I once found myself in the basement of one of the buildings on my college campus, and underneath one wing of the building was a big football field sized room. At one end by the door it was well lit and had a flat concrete floor, and there was a little office set up there with a desk and a computer and everything. Immediately to the right of the desk was just a massive open space extending off into darkness, filed with nothing but concrete columns, pipes, and piles of lose gravel. Not your typical office environment.

@@peter_smythas a grad student, oh my god I wish I had that office.

The part where Grey gets incredibly self-conscious at the thought of being discovered by nosy neighbors is hilarious

this whole animation is excellent but I especially loved the 'windows' and 'door'

I love the brief dalek cameo!

This makes me happy. My office is technically a meter from my bed, so I like to claim the balcony as my office. My laptop is not possible to read in the outside light, but it's still a nice change of scenery. There are tables around my complex, so sometimes I can find one in the shade with privacy. Those are great days until the students return from school.

Dear Grey. do you realize this is bound to become, the rules for rulers situation once again? 😅

*curious* "is that a roomba behind you ?" *terrified* "noo, absolutely not !" *pleadingly hopefully desperate* "can i come in .... please ....."

oh man this is such a great idea. it sounds so much better to turn a commute from driving to a rent-a-officespace building into just going down the elevator of your apartment's building to a private garage. I know that if I had such a space available I'd use it regularly as a workspace like that.

my brother sleeps in the same bed as his wife (obviously) but when it came time to move they opted to get a two bedroom apt. so he could set up an office in one since he works from home (she doesn't, sadly her chosen career cant be done from home)

A tiny audiology booth would fit your stand up desk and air filter perfectly. Screeching tires could set off a car alarm outside and you’d never know. And a large ice chest/yeti cooler full of frosty drinks should be enough to keep the temperature down inside.

Love the centipede detail at 0:17!

My genuine reaction was “NO COME BACK.” 😢 but man, of all the ways to be found out, that would be hilarious

I feel like the Grey heart at 0:46 can be turned into a very wonderful emote

That angry sun is a menace.

I just settle for changing into and out of work clothes and packing away the laptop at the end of the day to enforce the delineation between work and home when WFH - thanks to Grey's video released back in the 'dark times'. Successfully replaced the physiological aspects of the commute.

Speak friend and enter!

I’m amazed the garage has enough electricity for lights, computers, wifi’s and roombas! Well done!

Grey made himself a one-man cubicle

Oh my gosh I was just rewatching and thinking about this! I’m so excited

I'm super behind on episodes, and I just listened to this episode last month! Great timing!

I love these animations so much :D Also love how proud Myke looks at the end haha

If it's a roll up door, as you animate at t=0.33, then a pinhole camera will allow you to observe the outside with the door closed.

The image I had in my head is those shipping containers in the iRobot movie where the decommissioned old robots were stored in

So, this is how the neighbor officemate turned out? Skulking in a stall in the basement car park?

I feel there has to be a way to set that basement office up to keep it cooler in there, even if just havin it closed on an window AC set on the ground xD But also, usually underground is significantly cooler than aboveground, so heres hopin it stays under 30c (86f) in there in the summer, ideally under 25c (77f) The area outside the unitll likely get significantly warmer in the summer than inside the garage, just cuz of all the traffic to and from outside makin more heat available down there

Ha. That’s brilliant :) during the pandemic I hid in a storage unit to do a bunch of work. I loved my little productivity closet. It was fun while is lasted!

Damn it, why am I watching this 5 times..I'm going down a Cortex rabbit hole

This is my favorite one so far.

Staff can ignore this man... No threat here.

He doesn't want his neighbors to know but he's fine with sharing it with millions of viewers? Psychology is weird

The arms on the mario jumps, i see you animator

Oooooh just for that mario reference, take my like. That's my whole childhood

My last parking spot did not have any electrical, other than the lights that could trickle charge the 12V battery with a solar panel.

I thought I was pretty introverted, but grey takes the cake in introversion.

1:20 Your air filter looks suspiciously like a _superior being_ !

There are other vehicles in this basement? All those exhaust fumes. Good luck.

so true

I would like to advocate for the Parks & Rec and Cortex mash up where Grey ends up with DJ Groomba.

I feel like this sounds bonkers but if I was in this situation it would make perfect sense

in-godamn-credible

what episode was this? I actually don't even remember this conversation

You really are an adult Millhouse...

1:52 The lion the witch and the wardrobe reference?

Did you take the plastic off of the internal air filter? I forgot to do that when I bought mine.

"Do you have a computer in there?" "No." "Do you have a ROOMBA in there?" "No..." "...Are you the coolest person ever?"

One day he'll get a nasty letter from management about sub-letting his garage space to someone to live in. Until then he gets to write off 100% of the garage rental fee.

So it's summer now... how that doing for grey?

Wow

Which episode was this conversation from?

What episode

There is no way you can get internet down there

My concern is the amount of CO2 that'll be accumulating throughout the day

Come on Grey, abandon all attempts at appearing normal, I promise you'll love it. Who cares if your neighbours know you work in the garage.

Someone might actually complain he's not using it for a car depending on how desirable the spots are

You should get an electric saw and make electric saw noises occasionally.

Just to make sure: do air filters filter out CO? I think not, so I would be worrying about that…😮

Does this garage have power? Do you pay for it?

Grumba!

No roomba here....

Oxygen???

They know. They all know by now. No one says anything to the crazed lunatic spending most of his day in the garage. Why would they? It's like a security guard of sorts. And the air quality of the garage has improved.
