Okay, I don’t watch this show with any regularity (last night was the second I’ve seen), but I thought Priya was ridiculously hot and absolutely adorable. Though it was unclear to me why it didn’t occur to her to simply kick the shit out of Sheldon.

“No offense, but having shower sex with you, is now the second best thing that happened to me today!”

I wonder if Priya has moved past Wil Wheaton on Sheldon’s enemies list.

It sort of makes me wonder what Raj and Priya’s home life must has been like to cause both of them to flee to Los Angles.

Remember when the Leonard and Raj suggested that Sheldon needed to pull a practical joke on Barry Kripke? His first thought was about various untraceable poisons he could use.

Sheldon has little or no intuition about what constitutes appropriate human behavior. He has to have the rules explicitly explained to him. Premeditated murder is not appropriate for a practical joke, for instance.

It’s Sheldon’s apartment - I’d guess that maybe Leondard is subletting? While I imagine that Leonard should be able to afford a place of his own by now (was he some sort of student when he moved in?), at this point his life/friends/habits are pretty much entwined with Sheldon.

Worse than that - they did karaoke together.

I thought this was a good episode. And I’m in love with Priya.

Agreed. This was by far the funniest episode all season. I was in stitches over the smoking monkey.

Amy seems to say that regularly, too - “Should I kill her?”

A few episodes ago, they split up with Sheldon, and realized that he is indeed part of their group, for better or worse.

CNN seems to think so.

I immediately thought so too.

Another great episode. AFF drunk and coming on to Sheldon was hilarious. I loved the totally exaggerated way AFF waltzed.

To the monkey: “he’s kind of an ass.”

“I can train a monkey to smoke, I can train it to shoot a poison dart… And we won’t be prosecuted… Everyone loves monkeys!”

Also: “They were out of menthol, get off my back!”

Sheldon’s ‘Penny Penny Penny’ then she opens the door… “Move, move, move…!” as he shuffles around her to take a piss.

I almost peed myself when AFF told Sheldon, after kissing him, not to take her reaction personally as she ran for the bathroom to barf. I can’t find the exact quote, but man oh man…
