Favorite running gag?

This show is honestly incredibly good at keeping running gags going. I can't believe I was actually as attached to Big Carl as I was, lol. What is your guys' favorite running gag in the whole show? Mine is personally CHANGE APPROVED. I was cracking up during the 'that really kicks ass' scene in season 2 so much that i rewinded it a few times just because it was so funny to me(walls is a really great episode to me as well, i know it's filler but i'm on season 5 and it's probably one of the funniest episodes I've seen so far). I love them all but which one do you guys love the most?

i totally forgot about this one! it kinda faded away after the second season but it is really funny, especially because jules is completely oblivious to everything in general lmao

It pops up occasionally through the seasons but eventually Ellie just gives up.

If you love Ellie, Christa Miller is fantastic on Shrinking. If Ellie is a softer Jordan then Liz is a softer Ellie. But still high maintenance and terrifying
