In a bar, Howard says he hasn’t picked up a woman because Leonard is weighing him down; he’s “a falcon who hunts better solo.” Leonard responds with something like “Fine, I’ll sit here. You go hunt.” Then this:
Howard: You can’t just tell a falcon when to hunt.
Leonard: Actually, you can. There’s a whole sport built around it. Falconry.
Amy: That’d be my boyfriend. Happier playing his dopey Star Trek game with his friends than hanging out with me.
Penny: Wars.
Amy: What?
Penny: Star Wars. They get all cranky when you mix the two up.
Amy: What’s the difference?
Penny: There’s absolutely no difference.
Sheldon: I found the Grinch to be a relatable and engaging character, and I was really with him right up the point that he succumbed to social convention and returned the presents and saved Christmas. What a buzz-kill that was. Leonard: When we watch Frosty the Snowman, he roots for the sun.
Penny and Leonard have a bit of a spat because Leonard said the sex was “Just fine.” And Penny leaves with Leonard running after her. Basically Sheldon had tattled to her about what Leonard had said. After they leave the apartment:
Sheldon: I sense I may have crossed some sort of line.
Raj: Ya you…
Howard: Buh buh buh buh buh. Let’s see if he can figure it out on his own.
I was watching Entertainment Tonight and they had a segment on Jim Parsons aka Sheldon from The Big Bang Theory and many many plays.
They had interviewed him because he has a radio show on Sirius XM on the " Radio Andy" channel and apparently today was his first day. It’s called “Jim Parsons is too stupid for Politics.” It’s only going to run for 6 weeks. But he said he wanted to talk about politics from a neutral point of view and just talk about the facts.
He also said that he is an Executive producer for a Big Bang Theory spin-off show about a teenage Sheldon.
Leonard: How can I go out with a woman who believes in psychics? Howard: Hey, I once dated a girl who believed she was abducted by aliens. Leonard: And that didn’t bother you? Howard:Au contraire. It meant she was gullible and open to a little probing.
Stuart: I’m sorry, but you’re obviously stuck in a pre-Zero Hour DC universe.
Sheldon: Of course I am. Removing Joe Chill as the killer of Batman’s parents effectively deprived him of his raison d’être.
Stuart: Okay, you can throw all the French around you want, it doesn’t make you right.
Sheldon: Au contraire.
Penny: Who’s Adam West? Sheldon: “Who’s Adam West”?!?! Leonard, what do the two of you talk about after the coitus? Howard: My guess is “Hey, four minutes! New record!”
Sheldon: We could be the first to plant a flag on Mars. We could be the first to watch Mars Attacks* on Mars. We could be the first to say, ’ Good Lord what on Mars are you talking about?
*An awesome movie BTW.
Penny: So, what do you say, Sheldon? Are we your X-Men? Sheldon: No. The X-Men were named for the “X” in Charles Xavier. Since I’m Sheldon Cooper, you will be my C-Men. Howard: Oh, that’s not a good name.
Penny: What do you mean, new roommate? What happened to Leonard?
Sheldon: The same thing that happened to Homo Erectus. He was replaced by a superior species.
Raj: I’m the new homo in town.
Howard: [to himself] In a situation like this, you gotta pick sides. You’re either on Team Leonard or Team Penny. Sheldon: Which one picks last? Howard: What? Sheldon: Usually, I’m on the team that picks last… unless there’s a kid in a wheelchair.
