legacy99 Posted September 20, 2017 Posted September 20, 2017 People don't "run away" from problems?!? Ever talk to folks that live on their boats in harbors? Ex-pats? Folks in the Navy who wanted to make sure they don't get stationed near family in Nebraska? Folks in Doctors Without Borders? Early settlers that left England for the US? Quit jobs to write books? Divorce during their 40s or 50s, marry someone else and move to a different city? People run away from problems ALL the time.I personally i don think they literally run away I live on my boat and i never run away from a problem Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didnt decide to make a serious life change and move to another university that would allow him to study his subject of choice which would be the equivalent to most of your examples, he chose to get on a train and ride the rails with no destination "like a hobo" The extent to which some will attempt to justify and normalize his actions which are intentionally exaggerated for laughs baffles me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insisting on justifying them as such is like saying Barney Fife is reasonable portrayal of the average law enforcement officer If Sheldon reacted to everything normally, plenty of TBBT plots wouldn't be there. The major portions of plots of Indecision Amalgamation(PS vs xbox), Bath Item Gift Hypothesis, Adhesive Duck Deficiency, Panty Pinata Polarization, Pants Alternative, Einstein Approximation (and the ball pit scene) , Agreement Dissection or…countless other popular TBBT episodes wouldn’t even exist. One one hand, you are criticizing Sheldon for running away and not having a reasonable reaction to the situation. On the other hand, You said it yourself, his antics don't HAVE to be normal and are just meant for exaggerated comedy. It is a sitcom, not real life, so I personally don't see the point in complaining that he isn't suddenly and magically acting like a normal person in the first place.

mirs1 Posted September 20, 2017 Posted September 20, 2017 (edited) It should be from Bill Prady's brand new IG account, he announced yesterday on Twitter he was opening one (I thought he was joking, TBH...) Not 100% sure, anyway, maybe someone read the tweet too and created a fake one, LOL! Edited September 20, 2017 by mirs1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So his job and his place at living was at risk, most people in that situation would have that reaction. @serena_1995 this is the original post i was replying to which said sheldons reaction was what most people would do I was disputing that assertion not making it I agree with you and was not criticizing his behavior as not being what "most people" would do just saying it does not qualify as "normal" nor should it be classified as such Edited September 20, 2017 by JE7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBangFan24 Posted September 20, 2017 Posted September 20, 2017 I'm not sure if anyone has posted a taping report from last night's taping yet but I can provide a brief synopsis if you'd like. I'm not sure if this is the thread for that. Leonard & Penny: Use a parenting book of Bernadette's to control Sheldon's behavior. Howard & Amy: Start working together in Amy's lab (very long hours) Raj, Bernadette & Sheldon are lonely/ jealous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
