Nick Offerman wrote the 18th episode of Parks and Rec!! 

Highlights::

• “Mike asked me. We had lunch together this summer, and he asked me if I would like to write an episode. And as is my habit, I burst into explosive tears and said, “Absolutely, I would love to. Why in the world would you want me to write an episode?”  It was so touching. He said, “Because I love making this show with you. I could go out and get some hotshot writer from one of my Ivy League wells that I draw from, but I’d rather have a dipshit like you.”
• Nick improv-ed “Ron Fucking Swanson” and  ”I think you’d make a wonderful brunette. Ron Swanson.” 
• Nick wrote a lot of April in his episode- “I got to make her filthy and evil and everything I love to see her do.”

BOLDED FOR EMPHASIS. THE JUNGLE ANIMAL SOUNDS THAT JUST CAME OUT OF MY MOUTH, I CANNOT EVEN EXPLAIN TO YOU.
