Hey, ever seen a VC surfing?

To the German commander: I respectfully decline your request for surrender of Bastogne.

No, I’m sorry, you see, my good man, here in Sparta threats are responded to with violence.

People of Japan, we’re f\*\*\*ed. I’ve checked out that new thing they’re throwing at us and I dunno about you all but screw that BS about honorable death, I’m giving up and so should you.

Knock. Penny, please answer the door. It’s Sheldon.

Well, hello pretty lady. My name is Rajesh Ramayan “Raj” Koothrappali, I have a Ph.D. in astrophysics, and have just come to America as a research astrophysicist at Caltech. I’ve only had a few conversations with my co-workers but one of them, Howard Wolowitz, seems like a really nice guy. He is Jewish, though, and still lives with his mother. But he’s only an engineer with a masters from MIT. My father is an extremely rich gynecologist.

Want to come back to my place to have some more intelligent, lively conversation?
