"Yes! Well, I'm polymerized tree sap and you're an inorganic adhesive, so whatever verbal projectile you launch in my direction is reflected off of me, returns on its original trajectory and adheres to you."


-Dr Sheldon Cooper

It makes me want to vomit every time I read it. I like BBT, but hearing lines like that is like running sandpaper over my brain.

KaitLynn... there will be a reckoning.

Seeing quotes like that (and the World of Warcraft episode) is what keeps me from watching. j-whitt987 - 09/06/2011 06:45:20 AM 581 Views
What is wrong with it? *NM* Camilla - 09/06/2011 10:38:09 AM 237 Views
It's an attempt to sound smart while saying something incredibly childish and simple Helene - 09/06/2011 10:57:14 AM 577 Views

Which is why I don't want to watch BBT. The character is wholly unappealing. *NM* Helene - 09/06/2011 01:44:46 PM 237 Views
Huh Camilla - 09/06/2011 01:47:10 PM 580 Views

I didn't know there was another girl in the show Helene - 11/06/2011 07:20:02 AM 572 Views
No.Sheldon is characterized by: Arrogance, Know-it-all,lack of knowledge about social conventions, *NM* beetnemesis - 09/06/2011 03:16:44 PM 246 Views
Which his lack of normal language points to. Camilla - 09/06/2011 03:18:10 PM 507 Views
Basically? ANYONE WHO COULD PUT TOGETHER THAT DETAILED A PASTICHE WOULD KNOW THE ORIGINAL SAYING beetnemesis - 09/06/2011 03:30:16 PM 524 Views
... Camilla - 09/06/2011 03:33:11 PM 666 Views
I think that actually speaks to the quality of the characters beetnemesis - 10/06/2011 06:06:59 PM 583 Views
Regarding the point in your title Camilla - 09/06/2011 03:35:17 PM 514 Views
Eh. I think if they re-did the joke today they'd make Sheldon use the original, but force/explain it beetnemesis - 10/06/2011 04:48:16 PM 569 Views
your problem with this makes no sense. *NM* temeraire - 11/06/2011 02:42:00 AM 211 Views
