I think people are making way too big a deal out of this episode. It was about jumping the shark so they wrote in all those stupid tropes and cliches (plus fuck yeah for the Happy Days/Arrested Development reference). They threw in the Team Britta/Slatter/Annie&Jeff kiss in there as a nod to the fandom/shippers imo (it was very meta of them and showed when you give 'em what they want they don't want it anymore). And it set things up for next season.
As much as I like Jeff/Annie I don't see anyone in this show ending up in romantic pairings with each other. Dan Harmon already said that Jeff/Britta weren't supposed to be ~*OTP 4eva!!!11ELEVEN*~ and Jeff/Annie wouldn't work (and they sort of came out nowhere. I bet the writers were joking around about crack pairings and that's how Jeff/Annie came about but it turns about the actors have really great chemistry and it didn't totally work out the way they'd thought).
As for the "DAN HARMON IS A CHAUVINIST" group - lol maybe they should start watching The Big Bang Theory next season.
