Just proves TL is a fantastic representation of many different kinds of people. I'm sure there are plenty of TL users that listen to Ke$ha on a regular basis. I honestly don't care nor am I disappointed in them. Wait--I take that back I am disappointed in those who listen to Ke$ha. I take it all back--you can be disappointed in whoever you want. I talked myself into agreeing with you. | ||

Example: Sheldon is sick, so they sneak out to a planet of the apes marathon, dressed as apes. Punchline, one guy reaches for another guys popcorn, get your hands off me you damn dirty ape. That's it? I don't know what they could do, but it's not enough. They try to fill in for the weakness of their nerd funny with psychological abnormalities, like Sheldon's various anxiety disorders, which seems kind of forced and cliched. And this could all work if they had some extremely clever or well executed plots, but (at the least the ones I've seen) are pretty average. | ||

Its supposed to be a show for the average joe. Make them "feel" smart and nerdy. I just look at it as mild entertainment.. Its funny if you go in with an open, non-overcritical mind. | ||

I used to love this theory but then I lost my faith of it when the originator stopped proving me with evidence to be faithful. | ||

It ends up just feeling insulting to me, because the jokes are just "He says something nerdy - CUE LAUGH TRACK" as if just being nerdy is hilarious in and of itself. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vfFd_wOQsGQ Notice how practically nothing any of them say is funny at all. Hell, the first "joke" in the scene is "My mom sent me my old N64." Notice how neither of them have any idea about videogames (Multiplayer Mario64? Mario 64 didn't need a memory card). I am seriously surprised this thread got the positive response it did. I honestly expected that the OP would just get told over and over again how the show is awful, and he should feel bad for watching it. To be fair I thought the nerd jokes in the beginning ~Season 1-2 were pretty good. But after that they were definitely dumbing it down for the mainstream audience. Lets face it, if they were true nerds they wouldn't be using Macbooks, Alienwares or playing Halo  | ||

[-] to wil sent 6 hours ago Hey Wil, I saw that you were wearing two starcraft shirts on yesterday's episode of Big Bang Theory. Was it your idea to wear them? And do you follow the starcraft scene at all? [-] from wil sent 3 hours ago I don't follow the scene at all today, but back in the old days of Windows 95, I loved to play Zerg against my friends. | ||

Shes terrible.They're running out of the good stuff, of course, but i'm impressed. The series has definitely taken a turn for the better lately, Amy is a really good character and they keep coming up with smart choices for where they're taking each episode. | ||
