There are idiots... and then there is Michael Scott.
If God decided that one of His creation was to be cringe worthy, sexist, ignorant, difficult, and small (that's what she said!), then Michael Scott is it. A 14-year veteran of Dunder Mifflin Paper Supply Company, Michael Scott is a dichotomy. He is excellent at sales; he was Salesman of the Year for this small, failing mid-size paper supply firm several years in a row. Of course, for his efforts, he was rewarded with the post of Regional Manager at Dunder Mifflin. Big problem: You know how some companies promote someone from a position where they excel to a post where they are useless? Point taken. Michael Scott.
Michael Scott has been chastised for doing the Chris Rock routine at work
(using the "n" word frequently), sexually harassing the receptionist ("there's a
time when daddy cannot take a bath with his kids... even as much as I might want
to take a bath with Pam"), assuming
Stanley, the black salesman, would be an
expert at basketball and then being greatly disappointed, and of course, one of
the best episodes involved the time he grilled his foot on a George Foreman
grill while making bacon... in his bed... in the morning... 
and showing up to
work with a bubble wrap cast and then attempting to get a CAT scan for his
slightly burned foot.
Michael's love life is nothing to write home about. Up till recently, he was in a relationship with Jan Levinson, which was on-off for a while. She was sexually abusive, making him do things he wasn't comfortable. So he ditched her... and then she came back to ask him for a reconciliation. Her... and her two greatly enlarged breasts. Although the girls in the office tried to help him be strong and resist her womanly wiles, the minute he saw her chest, he said, "Let's get back together". When Pam questioned him, he said, "Your advice was good... but hers were bigger."
After Michael's breakup with Jan (she broke his 10" $200.00 plasma screen T.V.
in his condo by throwing a Dundie (Dunder Mifflin? Get it?) Sales Award at it),
he commanded the office to give 
him the name of a single, eligible woman for him
to date or they
would be fired. Jim gave Pam's
mom's name, Phyllis tried to introduce him to her fat friend ("can a rowboat
support her weight?" was Michael's first question, to which
Phyllis hummed, hawwed, and finally said, "OK, NO, a
rowboat CANNOT support her weight!"), and Kevin had him call Wendy, a juicy redhead... of course,
this turned out to be the restaraunt "Wendy's", and the juicy redhead was a
burger. Michael asked them to make him a baked potato and have it ready for
Dwight to pick up.
Michael did meet "Holly", a sweet but absolutely dorky HR representative who temporarily filled Toby's role when he left for Costa Rica. As their relationship took an intimate turn, Dunder Mifflin transferred Holly away, and Michael was back to saying, "It's not the horniness, it's the loneliness". When Toby returned, Michael tried to get him fired by paying $500.00 for some weed that he planted in Toby's desk, but it turned out to be salad and cilantro dressing instead.
