Quote from Michael in Patty
Hypatia: Okay, that's it in a nutshell. 'Cause you get here and you realize that anything's possible, and you do everything, and then you're done. But you still have infinity left. This place kills fun, and passion, and excitement, and love, till all you have left are milkshakes. Eleanor: The Good Place Committee obviously knew about this. Why didn't they try and solve it? Michael: They did. They tried everything. Just last week, they made the unicorns bigger, and then they gave them more horns, and then they made them chubbier. I mean, really, they just made a bunch of weird fluffy rhinos. The Committee members aren't human, so they couldn't understand the problem. The second I showed up, they jumped off this sinking ship and made me captain.
