I’ve seen people using “that’s what she said” in a very serious setting, as a way to say “good point/touché”. They had no idea it was from the Office.

      I don’t think it’s from The Office. OP must have heard it there first and assumed.

      But yeah, agreed. Had a coworker who was a little too comfortable making those jokes, including constant “that’s what she said” jokes. He turned out to be an entitled, abusive creep the first time a woman shut down one of those jokes. Now I see what a big red flag it is.
