Sheldon has said his package is fully functional, or something like that.
Now I feel all broken. I haven’t had a wet dream since I was 14 and have experienced many rather lengthy periods of no ejaculating at all. And my balls never exploded. At least that would have been an interesting experience to compensate for the dry spells.
Not sure that I’m buying the scientific rigor of your second link though. But that may just be a bias against sites telling me all the wonderful things that “best herbal supplements” can do for me.
It’s your prostate that would explode, not your testes. And simple analogy to men who’ve had their vas deferentia severed and tied should be sufficient to assuage any fears of exploding testicles.
Yeah, in the unaired first pilot there was a similar scene, only that Sheldon was off camera “making his deposit” and then had to apologize to a waiting Leonard:
*Took you long enough.
Sorry. I got distracted.
Really? How exactly do you get distracted making a sperm deposit? You find something more interesting in your pants?
No. Just the usual contents which I was operating in the traditional manner. But then I started to think…
*Hard to imagine “our” Sheldon behaving like that.
Cool. From your link and for others who may be interested:
It seems to be available too, though not through the usual channels. Don’t think I can any more. There are clips on youtube purporting to be from that episode but I didn’t verify.
That unaired pilot comes from the parallel universe where Spock will have a beard (or did have when they came back to kill the whales). It has no bearing on the behavior of the Sheldon in this universe.
I subscribe to the "Many Worlds" theory which posits the existence of an infinite number of Sheldons in an infinite number of universes and in at least one of them Sheldon's a wanking fool.
OK.
At least until the episode where they swap out goody two-pods with evil horn dog Sheldon. (it could happen - there’s an alternate universe episode in the future for this show, I guarantee it)
Fully functional and aesthetically pleasing.
We got Penny Boob and Butt shots and it isn’t even sweeps. The bending over joke would have worked just fine shot from the front. The reverse angle was just a gratuitous “Nerds pause here!” moment.
Yes, it’s always seemed to me that they sort of retconned Sheldon’s lack of interest in sex since the first episode.
All they had to do to make the tenure stuff believable (except for having an HR person on the committee; there was no rescuing that) would be to have the guys compete for a tenure-track job, instead of an already-tenured position. Given what we’ve seen of their jobs on the show, it’s likely that none of them are on the tenure track right now, and in many departments (though probably not CalTech physics), the only way a tenure track position opens up is if someone with tenure retires or dies.
He also had a fuck buddy in the first pilot. But what difference does that make? The first pilot isn’t canon.
The fuck buddy was from the unaired pilot. The “semi-pro” at masturbating line was from the actual pilot/first episode that aired.
Other than Penny’s eye candy and AFF’s none to subtle hints to Sheldon, a big MEH from me. (TBH, I FF through alot of it)
I find it interesting how concepts of shows change. Here’s a clip showing all of the sexual references about Sheldon in the unaired pilot: Sheldon has sex!
I’m glad they didn’t go this way and give us another girl obsessed character.
This is despite finding his current complete lack of sexuality a little off putting. I don’t know why they can’t just make him admit that he has sexual urges, but is suppressing them because he finds interpersonal relationships uncomfortable, and/or he feels he can better dedicate himself to his work by avoiding such things.
Well, in ST:TNG, Data said the same thing, but I doubt he produced any sperm.
Yes, and the unaired pilot came FIRST, making it the FIRST pilot.
Wouldn’t one of them be the co-pilot?
I always wondered if that meant Data produced some kind of faux-semen or just that he could get an erection.
