Rewatching Community for like the 5th time, and I love Abed- especially how the show makes it clear he's not always the easiest to deal with, and not just some freakishly-smart supergenius who's always two steps ahead of everyone. He seems smart because he can read patterns in peoples' behavior, but he's otherwise just as human and imperfect as any of the others.
He's shown to have a lot of insecurity about the gang sticking around, and expects them to eventually give up and abandon him because everyone gets sick of putting up with his quirks eventually. They never do, of course, but it's something I relate to a lot. It sucks to deal with, but it's nice to have a character to relate that to.
