Also, Leonard confronted Kurt on three separate occasions... when was the last time, almost a decade ago? Didn't he go confront Kurt with Sheldon the first time around? And, in the end, what did he accomplish by confronting Kurt? Was he successful? Whether he was successful or not, matters not one iota. The fact that he did stand up to someone taller, stronger and meaner than him speaks wonders of his resolve. Unlike Sheldon who shows his masculinity by running from Howard and using Amy for a shield. That' really brave running from a 5 foot nothing weakling. I've seen more meat on a chicken wing and Sheldon couldn't handle that. Yes, Sheldon was there the first time and was totally useless. He bitched, moaned and groaned the whole time there. Good day and good bye. I have better things to do today. 14 minutes ago, veejay said: Sorry, but all I remember is just one real "traditionally manly" character. #MeToo anyone? If I am not mistaken that manly person punched Sheldon and Howard and kicked one guy between his legs. I think she would have gotten Raj, but twice he ran away like a little girl.

chucky Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Well, seems like only 28 more episodes to be taped. Unless of course they sign up for another year or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do believe Sheldon ran like a baby on two of those occasions. Personally, I feel Howard would have kicked his ass and Sheldon knew that as well. Otherwise why hide behind Amy? Sheldon wasn't looking to get a sexual reward, as Leonard was. It wasn't selflessness on Leonard's part. Edited March 20, 2018 by Capt.

MsGreentea Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Does a joke written about something 11 years later show intent? Personally I think he was daydreaming just like the girl who looks at the cute guy she likes and writes Mrs John Doe all over her notebook. But he was hoping Penny would gave him the time of day, and he wanted to help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3ku11 Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 (edited) I think Leonard wanted to sleep with Penny. I mean all the guys did, not Sheldon of course. But that diddn't mean Sheldon cared about Penny's welfare. He just diddn't care about anyone or anything full stop LOL. But a man who wanted or thought about their babies on episode one. Suggests he wanted a more meaingful relationship then just a casual relationship. I don't think a joke written about something 11 years later shows intent either. Leonard was just hopeful Penny would give Leonard the time of day. And by the second season they were good friends. And besides Leonard accomplished in getting her money back from Kurt. He bought here a car in Season 7 to help her with her life. Leonard tough love was also what she needed at that time. Opposed to Sheldon who would simply throw Penny or anyone in his life under a bus, for a snickers wrapper. I am being fascious, kinda of. I think that was prooven in the Season 7 episode The Friendship Turbalence. Sheldon goes my game night is more important then your life.

I'd call that MISSION ACCOMPLISHED Season One - the pilot guys tried to get the TV back and failed Season One - the Halloween party, Leonard confronts Kurt, almost gets beat up and leaves the party. Drunk Penny comes over to 4A and kisses Leonard. Season Two - Leonard went to get Penny's money back and failed. The next day Kurt returned her money and Penny and Kurt started going out again.

S5 - The Ornithophobia Diffusion To add the whole thing: Quote Penny: Okay, so while we were going out, how often would you pretend to like things just to have sex with me? Leonard: All the time. Penny: You’re kidding. Leonard: Does this sound familiar? I’d love to go shoe shopping with you. Hiking? It’s great. It’s two a.m., of course I want to go to Korea Town and sing karaoke with your friends. Who wouldn’t? Penny: Okay, we were going out. You were going to get sex anyway. Leonard: Really? You would have slept with me after a three-hour documentary on dams? Penny: No. No woman would. He literally admits to it so it just might not be the best claim to make, just saying. lol Problem is the writers are kinda flip flopping around the "Leonard is a nice guy" baseline. Sometimes they make him a genuinely nice guy and sometimes they make him a Nice Guy™. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3ku11 Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 (edited) Why is it an argument Sheldon wasen't trying to get sexual reward from Penny? Back then he diddn't want sexual reward from anything. So if Sheldon even considered helping Penny out it would be for his own selfish wants and needs, not to benefit anyone else. And I am not sure using an argument after they had dated. About how Leonard would do stuff with her to get sex is applicable his intent. The argument was from what I have read. About him getting Kurt's money back. The intent before he entered in a relationship with Penny. I don't think it matters his intent was or his thinking was when he was in a relationship with Penny. And even if he did stuff with Penny. Like go to boring movies he did not like, hang out with ehr friends, to get sex e.t.c. So what. That's funny. And besides in that episode where Leonard goes oh I did things with you to get sex. I never took it exclusively. As that was the only reason he did those things. I mean what else is his motivation to do things he does not enjoy with Penny? Anymore then Penny's motivations are to do things with Leonard she does not enjoy. Like in Season 6 watching Buffy. Did Penny do that to get sex lol? Nope. But in Leonards case he was being smart. He wasen't interested in Pennys things. But he knew Penny could have any guy, and she choose him. So I Think him going "Oh I did it to get sex". Was just a facisious way of being clever about it. And besides I recall Penny going I like this new take charge Leonard. So why does it matter. And I think Leonard is a nice guy. Prob the nicest in the whole series. The amount of stuff he does for his friends, particilarly Sheldon. And he constantly gets taken for granted.
