We can't believe it's over. But while last night's series finale means we have said goodbye to Pawnee and the amazingness that is Parks and Recreation, we take solace in the fact that these moments—immortalized in GIFs—will be here to console us indefinitely. Goodbye Jean Ralphio, goodbye Ron Swanson, goodbye Galentine's Day waffles. May you forever live on our hearts like Lil' Sebastian lived on in the hearts of all Pawneeans.
