The actor who plays Raj is in this video by Miucci’s folk/comedy group [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/yMWTs0YT928/hqdefault.jpg "Present Face by Garfunkel and Oates") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMWTs0YT928) ---

Soooo. I wonder, if Raj does start dating this girl, will we soon be treated to an episode entitled The Liver Cirrhosis? Will she learn to love drunk-jerk Raj? Or will we finally be rid of the dumb can’t-talk-to-girls trope? ---

Raj will discover that the [human body makes it’s own ethanol depending on diet](http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Does_the_human_body_make_alcohol) and will convert to a high carb diet as a substitute. Hey, for a sit-com, it should work - right? ---

Slightly OT, but both Kate Micucci and Kevin Sussman have appeared in recent episodes of Wil Wheaton’s gaming webseries, Tabletop. ---

Hmm… that could be an interesting crossover. They could have an episode of BBT where Wil invites Sheldon to be on an episode of Tabletop, with the BBT card game (whatever they called it.) ---

Actually that would work since it’s all psychosomatic. We’ve seen Raj able to talk to women on non-alcoholic beer and literly stop mid-sentence when he found out it wasn’t the real thing. So as long as he _think’s_ a high carb diet will work it will. ---

When Sheldon pulled out the Etch-A-Sketch, I totally lost it. It was just so funny. ---

Penny and Sheldon could never work. She would want too much coitus. _pause for laughtrack_ She would want some coitus. _pause for laughtrack_ ---

> [@BrassyPhrase](#): > > OMFG, that would be awesome! > Manshark Vs The Octosquid or something. I would totally watch that! And the guys can decide that the special effects on the monsters are too fakey and they jump in to make them more real and as usual they go over board (ala Howard and the robotic arm..well, not exactly like that.) Raj meets starlets, Howard accidently signs on as a stunt man. Sheldon drives the director crazy. Penny meets hunky actors. Leonard gets lost back stage.
