    I was watching this episode tonight on TBS. It occured to me when I watched the scene where Penny wakes up next to Raj. When she wakes up but before she opens her eyes, she looks sort of happy. Do you think until she opened her eyes and saw Raj's arm and Raj she thought she was in bed with Leonard?

    And I think her second "Oh, God!!" was because of the location they ended up in.

    Penny opens her eyes and SMILES.  I've always thought it was because she knew she was in Leonard's room and assumed she was in bed with Leonard until she saw the arm (recognizing it wasn't Leonard's).  We all saw her reaction to Leonard starting to date Priya and her admission to Raj about her screwing up.  Thinking she was in bed with Leonard knowing she was in Leonard's room is only natural.  As a matter of fact, it's played a part in several of my fan fics.  

    However.......

     The actual non-hookup explained by Raj mostly placated the writers conscience and the fans but only Raj and Penny know what truly happened.  The fact is they were in bed together, naked, and she was assisting him in a very intimate moment which was intended to facilitate them having sex.

    NOTE:  I moved a couple of sentences of HeWolf's around as they fit better with my answers, the ones moved are in bold.

     

    It depends on what you mean by non-hookup.  From Raj's description, it sounds as if she took a hold of Raj's nether regions, to try and place the condom on.  This ended up causing the quickdraw portion of the program.  As Emily pointed out they kissed, and they were both naked.   Add in an orgasm, no matter how it was caused and that would be a hookup.

    We can probably assume that as time passed Penny may have told Leonard the details of what actually transpired between herself and Raj. How much consolation that might bring is debatable.  Thus there really can't be any mitigation to the potential hard feelings of other members of the group; particularly Leonard.

    I seem to be a bit of an oddball in the Lenny world as the incident with Penny and Raj never bothered me when it came to Leonard and Penny, but Leonard and Raj was a different thing.  In my fan-fics, Leonard is outwardly dismissive of having a problem with Penny about it (It does bother him occasionally emotionally).  However,  right after, in the show and in my fan-fics, Leonard (and myself) blame Raj.

    Look at the differences in the reactions to each of them.  Leonard doesn't blame Penny because he was dating Raj's sister, Leonard gave Raj permission to bring women into his bedroom, and he and Penny were not dating each other.   He even brings these points up when she is thinking of leaving LA.  

    Leonard is upset with Raj, in the cafeteria with the line, "What is wrong with you."  But the thing with Penny seems to have lessened rather quickly as later, during the paintball game, he is more upset with him because he didn't tell Leonard Priya was leaving, rather than what happened between him and Penny.  Also, Raj, knowing that Penny was upset because she considered breaking up with Leonard a mistake, should have kept him from trying anything.

    Hi Tensor,

    Your message got me thinking. Remember the spanking scene at the end of "Fish Guts". Do you then think that, in a way, he was aware of what was happening because to me,he looks so clueless . 

    The whole thing made me a bit unconformable to be honest because while she's clearly aroused,he looks like he has no clue but maybe on some level he knew? 

    If he can mimic a specific sex act surely he knows that an adult spanking another adult has a sexual connotation. 

    I have to agree with He Wolf.  After season four, he was written so inconsistently that you never knew exactly what you would get from him.  My point was that after that particular episode, I could never see Sheldon as naive.  In earlier seasons, you could go with he actually didn't know because of his lack of social skills.  Later seasons, he had to know, he had been told so many times and had the eidetic memory(another inconsistency?) to know better, right?   Because of that inconsistency, they could have him using a metaphor for sexual a specific activity and still be clueless about the sexuality of a spanking.

    Thanks. As I said in an earlier post,  I've had my share of colonoscopies as well.

    As have I.  I’ve decided that being old  is just having to go through a lot of medical procedures.

    Why were the writers so obsessed with these? 

    Or are they routine in the USA?!

    Colonoscopies area normal for those that are over 40, here in the US.  I've had one about every 5-7 years since I turned 40.  They are a good way to check for colon cancer.  However, I think this goes back to Chuck Lorre, who, in his thirties was a mostly out of work musician, trying to raise a family.  He had intestinal problems, but couldn't afford a colonoscopy to check to see what was wrong.  The only thing he could do was to go to a teaching hospital and get a colonoscopy, without anesthesia.  They figured out what was wrong with him and it was treated.  Although I think it left a mark on Chuck, (anesthesia free colonoscopies are not fun) hence all the colonoscopy jokes.

    Why did you answer then

    Because he can and is allowed to. If you don’t like a post, move on.  If you feel it violates our rules, report it. 
     

    With that in mind, chucky, I strongly suggest that you refrain from responding.

    I think that she had several credit cards. 

    She also had them get cancelled, but also new ones.  Check near the beginning of "The Spaghetti Catalyst".  She has this line:

    Penny: Oh, damn, they cancelled my Visa. Oh, yay, a new MasterCard!

    Thank you Tensor.

     

    Do you also know how many dogs Kaley has now? Is Shirley still alive?

    Yes, Shirley is still alive.  She has Shirley, Ruby, Dumps, and King.  I think her and Tom have a blended canine family as he has several of his own.

    The fact that Kaley was having her own ranch built when they got married, is that something at the time you think was decided to protect her own interests in case they got divorced in the future.

    Was they sharing his ranch at the time?

     

    No, the planning for her Ranch had begun before she met Karl and it wasn't just Kaley.   Kaley and Tracey Wade, her equestrian trainer, are both involved in running Big Bay City.  I believe Kaley is the majority owner, but Tracey also is invested and brings a much broader Equestrian knowledge to the ranch.

    Except on a temporary basis (moving horses around or going and returning from shows), Kaley and Karl never shared or owned a ranch together.  As others have pointed out, protecting her assets (and Karl's, in his case) were the reason both of them had pre-nups drawn up.

    Do Kaley and Karl still share the ranch they own?

    They never owned one together.  Karl’s is in San Diego and Kaley’s is in Hidden Valley, Southwest of Thousand Oaks.

    I doubt that ex-girlfriends can tell the truth about broken relationships. I am based on psychology, protection is triggered here - when a breakup occurs, any girl will blame her ex to protect herself.

    Can you point out where I said she blamed Johnny?   I said other reasons.  And, guys are triggered list as much as women and  they will blame the girl.

    Quote from the book (I hope I'm not breaking the rules of the forum if I post this)

    You were good with this.    👍

    A quick quote from a book or magazine article is fine.   We don't allow the whole page though.  🙂

    Who are these two then?

    This podcast was in 2016?  by which time Johnny and Kelly were no longer following each other in IG, because Kelly was already dating a musician.

    '

    Kelli hasn't followed Johnny since spring of 2014 and she indicated to me in a DM on IG that she quit following him for reasons other than she had started dating someone else.  She didn't meet the musician, until 2015.  

    I exchanged texts with the other, she would prefer I keep the matter private, she's not interested in bringing more of her private life into the public eye.  I will honor her request.

    Is there a scene in any episode where it is stated that Leonard's brother Michael is younger than him? I think I recall that, but I'm not sure which episode.

    Season 2, episode 15, The Maternal Capacitance.   This is Beverly's first time on the show.  The scene is in the school cafeteria, Leonard brought his mother to show her his lab and work, the four guys are Beverly are sitting at a table in the cafeteria and the dialogue is:

    Howard: So, Dr. Hofstadter, Leonard rarely talks about his incredibly successful brother and sister.

    Leonard: Please, don’t go there, Howard.

    Howard: I understand that unlike Leonard, they’re at the top of their respective fields.

    Leonard: Boy, you suck.

    Beverley: Well, Leonard’s younger brother, Michael, is a tenured law professor at Harvard, and his sister just successfully grew a human pancreas in an adolescent gibbon.

    It can be understood in different ways. These are the friends who are his subscribers or friends - literally. Friends who follow him to IG, as I notice when they start dating another man, tend to unsubscribe from him. But later they start following him to the IG again, except for Kelly.

    I know two people who unsubscribed from Johnny, but after a while they followed him again. Naomi follows Johnny again and comments on his posts.

    Arielle also followed Johnny again and also comments on his posts.

    I wasn't referring to either of them, but let's look at them.  I didn't consider Naomi a girlfriend of his , so I don't see where she applies.   Arielle may be following Johnny again, but I notice he isn't following her.

    Yes, it is quite possible. Johnny in Anna Faris' podcast said that all his ex-girlfriends are his friends. 

    Depends on what you mean by friends.  Since that podcast, I know of two that have broken contact with him.  This isn't to say they dislike him and as far it's known, they didn't have a problematic breakup.  It's  just for their own, personal reasons  they no longer have any contact with him, which would make it difficult to be friends.

    That is true, her previous schedule isn’t really conducive for a new mother with a baby.  I guess if she does try to continue her pre-pregnancy lifestyle we will probably be seeing her post pictures of her new nanny.

    Or pictures of Emma or Jayden Moon with her daughter, in her trailer.

  18. A few years ago, I got a slightly angry PM at fan fic.  Seems the person was upset because they had been having a discussion about a particular something or other concerning Penny and Leonard.  They were upset when they found out what they were arguing  for, was only in my "Chew Toy" fan fic.   They said it sounded rational and authentic and they took it as it actually happened.  You can be sure I was quite pleased by that.  😁

    That one where he did the speech and ended up on YouTube........!  😄

    That was "The Pants Alternative".   The one before Leonard and Penny broke up.  😢

    Good to be back home. Spent 3 & 1/2 days in the hospital due weakness in my legs to the point I couldn't even walk. Apparently I had an Urinary Tract Infection. The doctor said an UTI in men can have effect and other effects. 

    glad you doing better, Chucky.

    Thanks for the explanation. I would have 'liked' your reply but, well, you know...

    I've always appreciated the time and energy you and Tensor put into operating and maintaining the forum. Thanks for all you've done and continue to do.

     

    Thanks. :)   I was very fortunate and want to thank Tripper also.  Tripper and I tended to agree on over 95% of things and decisions,  which made the behind the scenes stuff the member didn't see really easy.  Now, some of that stuff the members actually saw or posted could be a whole 'nother story.  😉

  22. As some of you probably have figured out, there was.a problem with the forum over the last 24 hours.  If you need to contact me, outside of the forum there are several ways to do it.  Here are some:
