He also gave Amy a bath when she was pretending to be sick; then spanked her when he found out. She even played music so the neighbours wouldn’t be bothered by the sounds of her punishment.

I’ll be in my bunk.

Leonard and Joy (IIRC), the loudmouth blonde at the Cheesecake Factory, that Howard had Bernadette set him up with after Leonard invoked the Girlfriend Agreement. Leonard was just about to bail when (approximately):

Joy: “So, listen, I’m going to this wedding on Saturday. It’s open bar so I’ll probably be giving it away. Wanna come along?”  
Leonard: “I look forward to it!”

It seems Leonard gets tons of sex and he’s the actual slut of the group. Although it could be that each of Leonard’s sexcapades gets detailed to a much greater degree than anyone else’s, while Penny could be having sex with a different partner twice a day and we wouldn’t know about it.

Raj is the real loser. He may have more sex than Sheldon-- Sheldon doesn’t care. In fact, he’s happy he’s not having sex. Meanwhile Raj has gone without for over a year (he’s complained that it had been more than a year to Sheldon once) and he misses it.

Hey, maybe Raj and Amy should hook up since they are both so sex-starved.

As an older nerd, I consider a dry spell of a year’s length to be rather short. ☹

Ah! Now I need to start a thread in IMHO about what people consider excessive for a dry spell (says a big, old nerd who is married so dry spells last only as long as either one of us stays angry-- or sleepy).

His name in the show was [Glen](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1632228). Does the fact that I knew that trivia from memory prove I’m a BB nerd?

In “The Psychic Vortex” Raj hooks up with Abby (played by Danica McKellar) that he met at a university mixer.

To be fair, I mean she’s quite attractive, yes, but I can’t imagine being in a relationship with Penny and feeling anything but trapped. One of my favorite episodes is when Howard, Bernadette, Leonard, and Penny are doing a Valentine’s Day date and Leonard straight up grabs hold of his balls and tells Penny she’s a bitch. I never cheer at the tv, not even for sports events or Lord of the Rings. Leonard got a yelp from me for that one. Penny is precisely what Sheldon’s dad had in mind when he likened women to an egg salad on a summer day.

There have been such threads; they’re quite depressing.

Makes one really appreciate the dry spells.
