The Big Bang Theory 3x06

The Cornhusker Vortex

Season 3, Episode 6

* Leonard: Maybe Koothrappali's right. Maybe I embarrass her.
   Sheldon: You're embarrassing me right now. A grown man wooing about such nonsense when we're in the middle of flying kites.
   Leonard: Sorry.
   Sheldon: Sorry won't bring their kites down.


* Howard: She gave me that "come-here" look.
   Raj: If she gave you any look at all, it was a "you suck" look.
   Howard: I would've caught up her if I hadn't pulled a hammy.
   Raj: Oh, please, you weight 80 pounds. You don't have a hammy.

* Leonard: First down, New England. I think I'm starting to get this.
   Raj: Really? The only thing I've learned in the last two hours is that American men love drinking beer, pee too often and have trouble getting erections.
   Leonard: Focus on the game, not the commercials, Raj.
   Raj: I'm just saying, maybe if you people cut back on the beer, you could get out of the bathroom and satisfy your women without pharmaceutical pills.


* Howard: Sheldon knows Football?
   Leonard: Apparently.
   Howard: I mean Quidditch sure, but Football?
   Leonard: Sheldon, how do you know this stuff?
   Sheldon: I grew up in Texas. Football is ubiquitous in Texas. Pro Football, college Football, High School Football, Pee-wee Football. In fact, every form of Football except the original: European Football, which most Texans believe to be a commie plot.
   Leonard: Unbelievable.
   Sheldon: If you're interested, I also know all about frying meat that isn't chicken as if it were chicken.
   Leonard: So, you could teach me?
   Sheldon: Football, or chicken fried meats?
   Leonard: Football! I'm going to Penny's on Saturday to watch a game with her friends, and I don't want to look like an idiot. I want to blend in.
   Sheldon: If you want to blend in with Penny's friends I think looking like an idiot would be the perfect camouflage.


* Leonard: Wish me luck.
   Sheldon: Leonard, wait. Am I correct in assuming that your attempt to be accepted to ensure your continuing mating privileges with her?
   Leonard: Well, I wouldn't put it exactly that way...
   Sheldon: How would you put it?
   Leonard: Yeah, okay, like you said.
   Sheldon: Huh. Seems like an awful lot of trouble to go through for intercourse. Don't you have access to women who will do it for money? Another accepted usage for the term "ho."

~ Скучненько получилось. Хотя любители футбола (не европейского) могут думать иначе...
