The animated feature will delve into the life of the dorkiest and most capable Mystery Van rider. Variety reports that Velma will be voiced by writer and actress Mindy Kaling and so far has a ten-episode season.

Pretty cool, right? Well, not to everybody. One Twitter troll named @JayGamerShow, who seems to only have one follower, didn’t like this announcement AT ALL.
In response to a tweet from @DiscussingFilm saying Kaling would voice Velma, they replied, “Starring Mindy Kaling?”
Then posted a gif from The Office of Micheal Scott shouting, “NO!”

Mindy Kaling saw it, either because she searches her own name or because she uses this troll as a dummy account for funsies. Or maybe someone snitch-tagged. Whatever happened, she had the perfect response to the now-deleted tweet:
“I wrote the episode of The Office this gif is from,” she wrote.

People are loving this drag, because there’s just so much poetry to it:

This troll seems to be the exception, because Kaling has gotten a lot of good feedback on the casting:
And she’s ready for anyone else who complains…
