Talk:TPS report

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The TPS Report has become a legend thanks to the movie "Office Space" based on the Milton Cartoon that was syndicated on SNL (Saturday Night Live), and was created by Mike Judge (Beavis and Butt-Head, King of the Hill, Milton...etc)


The wow comercial is a scene stolen directly from Office Space. Therefore, it is an inelligible source because it duplicates an already cited source. I mean, it isn't even re-acted... they just use computer editing to paste a short WoW scene in. (He was actually playing tetris... notable because you can't really play WoW with only the arrow keys.)

Finally, this article does NOT cite it's refrences... everything after popular use is bullshitted into the article.

I took a management class a couple years ago and my professor was quite confident that TPS reports referred to Transaction Processing System reports, not transactions per second. Could be wrong, but one could certainly speculate either way. I would trust my professor over some random wikipedian, however, so some sourcing is definitely needed.

[edit] Article Split

Recommend dislocation of remaing infomation, either into existing articles, or extior to its own... also recommend 'stub' tag. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Merranvo (talkcontribs)

Now that you went and started a new article without any discussion, please be so kind as to fix the mess you made. I already added the seealso and a GFDL split notice. You can fix all the incoming links. — RevRagnarok Talk Contrib 12:43, 15 December 2006 (UTC)


In the video game F.E.A.R. on the level Interval 4 on a desk there is a TPS Report, a Red Stapler (like the one Milton had in Office Space), and a sticky note with a phone number for Chachkis, a restaurant in the movie.sangre viento 17:33, 6 April 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sangre viento (talkcontribs)

[edit] Duplication?

This article has duplicates of the entries on TPS. A disambiguation pointer to that and removing the duplicates seems called for. —EncMstr 01:14, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
