So in no particular order (and like I said, these likely already exist) and some arent really "theories":

Michael was actually really smart but had really bad social skills, likely from growing up with no friends (which he alludes to numerous times). This made him come off as dumb but he ran with it because it made all of his employees better workers. They were able to work freely without worry of an overbearing boss....Jim even said something after they were managerless....about employees still being able to do their job with no one to manage them. That was Michaels philosophy the entire time - be a manger without actually letting folks realize they were being managed.

Phyllis may have cheated on Bob. This isnt really a theory because Michael calls her out for it and she gets visibly upset. That likely could have just been b/c Michael was being an asshole but for whatever reason, he had a tendency to find out things he shouldnt have so there is a good chance she did.

Roy and Angela hooked up. Early on, they have a few interactions which show there is an attraction...Roy says hed sleep with her on the day Ryan torches a pita...Angela says shes hook up with him...Angela is always nice to him. On Casino night, Michael says something like "new lovers!" and there is an exchange between the two....just small interactions here and there that lead me to believe it briefly happened.

Toby is the scranton strangler, that one everyone shares.

Jim is actually the guy everyone should hate in the office. Hes constantly tormenting Dwight. Hes the one who is always telling everyone to behave, do their work....when he somehow gets away with doing neither. He got a promotion for simply being friends with David. He broke up Pam and Roy (even if it ultimately was going to happen). He rarely supported anyone in the office aside from Pam. Etc etc.

I'm sure I have more but this is just rapid fire off the top of my head.

Not a theory, but Jim and Pam easily became the worst characters in the show once they had the first kid (not to mention how god AWFUL hearing CC every fucking episode was). Thats not to say they didnt still have some great scenes but by and large, they became boring and uninspired...Pam especially. The draw to her character was that was not like everyone else....she was a bit quieter but still a lot of fun....reserved even. Once they made her "conquer her fear", she became just another face on the show...offering nothing of use.
