sheldon did not point anything out - he was just being self centered and selfish as usual

I dislike every BBT character.

Yeah he got the ring, when he fantasized about them getting back together, did that Beta test, and then he proposed during sex, and was going to give her the ring then.

I'm an American and i hate when people make a huge deal out of stuff

I don't understand, can someone please explain this to me?

@@b.d.j.2818 Emily said that she agreed to go out with the guy who was bothering her "just to get it over with", but she shouldn't have had to do that. The guy should have accepted her answer when he asked her out and she said no. But the show doesn't seem to recognize that, it treats the whole thing as reasonable, which is not a great message.

Emily consented to go on a date with him. She could have said no but didn't. Women have to take accountability for their own choices, anything less is infantilizing. It's more realistic that she actually wanted to go on a date with him and only told Raj that she felt like she had to in order to not cause unnecessary damage to their relationship.

@@magnuskarlsson8655 coerced consent is not actually consent. Thank you for proving my point that normalizing that behavior sends a dangerous message. There's nothing in the narrative to suggest that she actually wanted to go.

@@robynjoffe1494 She's the one normalizing it by consenting to it. No one is coercing her. A person hoping or expecting is not coercion unless it is done in a threatening or physically violent way. Men - or women for that matter - can't read minds, especially if they are autistic. Again, stop infantilizing women and respect peoples choices, which includes their mistakes, or choices that you don't agree with. The only dangerous message here is that women - or men for that matter - have to go along with things they're not comfortable with because they don't feel like their consent is going to be respected or because they don't want to disappoint the person in question. And the only way to cure that fear is to learn how to say "no" in a respectful way instead of consenting and then blaming him for the fact that you consented. If she would have told him "no", instead of violating her own desire, nothing would have happened other than disappointing him. She didn't want to do that, and that's on her, not him.

Actually chai is just the Hindi word for tea (as in tea leaves tea, not herbal tea.) In India spiced tea is called "masala chai" because masala means "spice mixture". (I lived in India for 10 years.)

@@sistermadrigalmorning233 Cool! I'm too scared of snakes to go there, but the festivals look absolutely BEAUTIFUL! Thanks for the info. I just Googled "Chai tea" and copied and pasted the definition, lol. 😀

It's a running joke of the show. Her surname is never said. Even when her dad was introduced, he saod "call me [first name]" as a way to bypass leonard saying "nice to meet you, mister [surname]" "please, call me [first name]" type conversations that usually play out. Although I admittedly cannot think of any examples right now, a lot of american shows will hide a random characters surname. (Or, in the case of Grimm, Monroe's first name is never said.) It's just a subtle running gag 😂

No one knows Penny's last name, not through the entire series. They do have a Serial Apest 2. and that has a picture of her in the cage and Will outside of it. They have his full name and her name as Penny Star. Whether they did that for just the poster as a stage name I am not sure

@@candicelitrenta8890 Her last name is shown on the moving box in the very first episode. That's the only time it's seen

He once said in an episode that he's metrosexual.

Yes, I'm not an idiot. Tea is pronounced "cha" in Mandarin and no one thinks the chai in "chai tea" stands for Chinese. I'm referencing the fact that in Hindi, the language most spoken in India, the word "chai" means tea. Calling it "chai tea" means "tea tea".

@@ericreacts2 One never knows, just checking.
