My friend silenus and I are in agreement in almost all other areas, but my chili has beans in it. If you don’t like it, don’t eat it.
Knives at dawn.
Or Bataka Bats around tea-time, your call.
;o)
Was Sheldon right about a rabbit’s scrotum being in front of their penis?
I would look for myself, but there are things that even I will not google.
Chile tastes better with beans in it.
Being served with beans isn’t the same thing as being made with beans. They’re a side dish, which is the way my mother served them with chili.
Now, if you want to go mixing your main dish and your side dish together before you even eat them, be my guest. The beans are almost as hot as the chili, anyway. But they’re spiced with jalapeños, not red pepper and cayenne.
Chicken & stars is the best soup when you’re sick.
Yeah I know about her real tattoo, but perhaps there’s one that she doesn’t show just anybody.
Nah, too much helium.
His method of reproduction (involving Thai food) has a lot to be said for it.
Even if you promise not to look at the damsel in distress when her clothing is in disarray, so to speak, you still take a peek.
He was also very, very right (to paraphrase Stuart) about Leonard’s mistake with the rocket fuel.
And bears are terrifying.
Ah, but we are going through The Big Bang Theory now and did catch Sheldon in a mistake: In the third season, he’s arguing on the phone with a Thai restaurant. To make a point, he lectures them on something that King Rama IV of Siam did in the mid-18th century. Well, no, he meant the mid-19th century, specifically the years 1851-68, the years of King Rama IV’s reign. (King Rama IV was the Yul Brenner character in The King and I.) He did say mid-18th century – we backed it up to check.
Also, I grew up in Texas and don’t remember much about “Texas” chili having beans or not having beans. I don’t think I ever heard a differentiation between Texas and Mexican chili, not that I can remember.
Sheldon is right that someone who cites their horoscope “tells us that you participate in the mass cultural delusion that the sun’s apparent position relative to arbitrarily defined constellations at the time of your birth somehow affects your personality.”
He appears to be correct that there is no comedic law of diminishing returns for space poop.
He’s right that Wil Wheaton was great in Stand by Me.
Dick Grayson is the only proper heir to Bruce Wayne as Batman. (That was literally the only time I’ve ever thought ‘Sheldon is RIGHT, goddammit, stop arguing!’ The fact that Stuart chose Jason Todd, rather than Tim Drake (also a valid choice), didn’t help, of course.)
Didn’t you mean to say “And Godless killing machines are terrifying.”? ![]()
Wow, I had forgotten about this thread. I was only reminded because the companion thread was revived and contained a link to this one.
We’ve had three more years of the show since 2014, and I have another point to add.
Sheldon was right about creating a relationship agreement. It’s a good enough idea that Leonard and Penny want him to draft one up for them, too.
Personally, I think he is right that when a line of people are waiting for a first-come-first-served event, it’s really rude to save a space for someone who comes last and expects to join people at the beginning of the line. That guy who works for the DMV better have been late because one of the dialysis machines was down, and he had to wait longer than usual for his turn at the kidney clinic. Or something like that.
I also agree that Raj’s chair stick was stupid, but I don’t think Sheldon was the first one to point that out.
