Occam's Chainsaw Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Well, unless the viewers are sitting around smoking pot. I'm game for that . Honestly I don't get why some people are so upset with them "going back to old Penny" with this story, after all it was "old Penny" that made this mistake. Also I'm pretty sure that the idea is that Penny went to Vegas with Zack for Thanksgiving in S4 and the taping report may not be perfectly accurate on the lines. Considering that Penny may have been extremely drunk when it happened; in S4 she was drinking more than she ever had because of breaking up with Leonard, she was in Vegas, and she was spending Thanksgiving with someone even she thought was really stupid (Probably because she didn't want to spend the holiday alone, just like New Years), so she was quite probably wasted. If that was the only time she ever thought about Vegas wedding chapels the rational part of her brain probably didn't kick in to tell her that it might actually be real and if she hadn't really thought about the trip since then she wouldn't have stopped to consider whether it was real or not.

I.Am.Molly Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 You can't possibly know that!!!! I can and i do! Okay, i cant and i dont, but i have said this over and over again, i really dont think there will be another Leonard and Penny break up. If anything this whole thing has been brought up to float the marriage thing again and possibly, just possibly bring about the Penny proposal. I can see that being the reason for this whole thing more than as a reason to break them up. I hope so anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Occam's Chainsaw Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 There definitely won't be another Lenny breakup now, the Holiday season has a high enough suicide rate without adding to it by destroying the hopes of millions of devoted TBBT fans who love themselves some Lenny.

Maybe an episode but nothing major. Their main characters on the show. On top of that nobody is siding with Penny on this one. A marriage proposal isn't crazy.

Penny back in S3 when she was dating Zac, even told Leonard on NYE that she is only dating him because she doesent want to be alone, I am not sure they dated though in S4, maybe early on though in the season they went to vegas for thanksgiving, "old" Penny was known for making stupid decisions, Penny is now regretting something she diddnt think happened in the first place, she is feeling remorseful and embarassed. She was probably slightly drunk, and was under the impression it was a fun not real wedding, seeing she hasent seen him in almost four years, why would she consider if it was real or not when she thought it wasent. So I understand Leonard getting the brunt of it again, but she doesent need Leonard pushing on it. And the decoupling well be refering to the annulment, after romance resonance cant see them breaking up at all let alone so soon.

Disgusted Posted November 7, 2013 Author Share Posted November 7, 2013 (edited) That is something that more properly belongs in the Mike & Mrs. Rostenkowski spoiler thread. Sniff. Edit: Dammit, its not getting better!!! LEONARD- Why am I the bad guy here? She screwed up. I’m the victim here!

Moonbase Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Well, unless the viewers are sitting around smoking pot. Considering how short the viewers memories are I'd say yes! Penny mentioned knowing loads of people who married in Vegas and it wasn't that long ago. How can they have forgotten this already. Besides a girl like her would know this. Time was, Penny wasn't made out to be stupid at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terriblewaitress Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 So with the new little addition to the report… she knows she screwed up, and I think she really doesn't need Leonard rubbing it in her face and she wants to do this alone, which is understandable, but also knows that she's being quite harsh. But she wasn't to do this annulment, she's getting it done. She's doing this for him, so she can marry Leonard, and neither of them are overreacting like half of us on here.

So there's five million (Taking into account the average number of viewers this year (18+ Million) so far) that haven't seen it. Besides a girl like her would know this. Time was, Penny wasn't made out to be stupid at all.Yeah, she was supposed to be the "street smart" one. Hell, seems Sheldon has more street smarts at this point.

I wish Leonard would stop trying to save Penny from messes she creates. The boy needs to learn nothing he does in this situation is going to go over well and he will be the one kicked in the teeth. As for rubbing in her face --- please Leonard is doing what he always does trying to help her out of a tight spot she got herself into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I missing something here? What other 'spots' has Penny got herself into? Penny has always been a work in progress, I dont think Penny has ever done anything wrong, she hasent got a criminal conviction, she hasent killed anyone lol. She made a terrible terrible but honest mistake, she wasent with Leonard then, so I dont see why its a surprise to see the writers going down 'Old" Penny again, difference is she is not "old" Penny anymore, hence why she is so embarassed. Penny made a mistake something she diddnt even think she made, she is embarassed and feeling stupid, does this mean she is no longer street smart? Or she is a hypocrite? Or she is stupid? No she is human that is what makes her so interesting, is someone so perfect on the outside is so flawed. I mean this was a one time thing, it happened once four years ago, its not like Leonard hasent done stupid things Penny has overlooked, not that this is the same thing, I am just saying its unfair to judge Penny on something that happened when she was a different person, especially considering she was under the understanding it was fake, it was clearly not. It would be different if she was under the pretense of it being real, seeing she was only dating him as a physical relationship, and the fact she diddnt want to be alone as she told Leonard. The question is why would the writers do this now who knows. Edited November 7, 2013 by 3ku11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
