He's a big guy.

But Leonard came to the building, just out of college. So he just liked the arrangement and then spent all his money on expensive nerd shit.

>>220015417
Sheldon was already living there

>>220015417
It bothered me that they never had an episode about WH40k.

>>220015417
their apartment is also three times the size of penny's

>the implication that physicists make a lot of money

>>220015436
Yes. I dont have any information on when he moved in, how long he was there, and when he started working as a physicist. But he clearly has the excuse of needing a handler like Leonard. I think he didn't even go out or do anything until Leonard came along. Either way, they were both young, and like the arrangement too much to go off on their own and live in luxury

So now 95% of twitter threads about older shows are how the character Schlongo Bongo wouldn't be able to afford their apartment, because in the big 2026 inflation is so big you can only rent a cupboard for the same wage?

>>220015444
their nerd interests seemed to be mega specific which is fair enough if they're actual giganerds who don't leave their comfort zones. but no jap shit either? c'mon

>>220015444
Probably copyright. Or the writers themselves were basic-bitches. I mean, they considered Sheldon playing on an n64 emulator to be the height of nerd references.
>>220015468
This

>>220015699
Yes? There's a massive demographic of nerds who's interests never go outside of capeshit, star trek, and dr. who.

rent control? idk

Waitresses make $200 a night on a slow night.

>>220015344
the implication here is that all people want to spend more on rent just because they make more money

She probably paid for it with her tips. Her left tip, and her right tip.

>>220015699
they are into capeshit primarily lol. a lot of the show was look we are very smart men but we are so childish and dorky so normies feel better about yourself

>>220015344
more likely they waste all their money on nerd crap so have to live adjacent to a waitress and co-occupy

is British, same with the no jap stuff. American shows only support American products. used to work for an American company in Britain and we'd get chewed out by corporate for using British suppliers instead of American all the time even if it was cheaper

That tracks. I live in a rural town and our local 40k player facebook group has like 150 players. Its a huge phenomenon here in Canada. Its also winter 6 months a year here so most people have indoor hobbies.

Heats speech scene is in a fancy restaurant not a diner.

The Profession Trilogy by Jason Statham will be revealed to be a superhero franchise at some point for the MCU, Jason is secretly an Omega Level Mutant who spent his time thinking he was different people and because he knows what everyone is up to he is attracted to killing the local mobster where he stumbles into.

It's a Caltech thing. Leonard and Sheldon live as close as they can to Caltech, which is in Pasadena, a somewhat more affordable part of LA. It's not that Penny was rich, it's that the nerds didn't care about living in a nice place.

I used to drive past the Caltech math department on my commute to my wagecuck job. I always kind of wanted to just walk in and see what they were up to

I would watch a YouTube video like "every 40k faction explained" to see if any of the armies appeal to you. Then I'd torrent a copy of the core rules and read them and review whether or not the army you like plays in the style that best suits you then torrent a copy of their codex and read that. Then you buy, build and paint your army as if your city has one go to a GW store to meet other players and find pickup games. Do that for a while until you find people you enjoy playing against and form a private club. I was in a private club for about 10 years and we added a few new guys a year and had two 6ft x 4ft tables in one of our members basement. If you go this route you will have to look up terrain to buy or build yourself.

I can't be more specific without knowing more details about the local scene where you live.

Her and Leonard are not looksmatched at all. It completely broke my immersion when they started dating, especially because then he got all confident, like he had any business being with a girl like that.

She never loved leonard. She pretended to like science one time when a guy named Dave who works in science with Leonard helped Leonard home after he crashed on a motorcycle and she immediately slept with the guy cause he's a Chad.

She never took interest at all in science with Leonard. She just settled for him cause she's a used up slut

>>220016485
That's pretty standard

>>220015417
Leonard and Sheldon both had a decent amount of money saved. They lived well within their means. Penny was always broke. She had to borrow money and basically ate for free between cheese factory leftovers and eating with the nerds. Until metoo happened and they made penny a cunt and gave her a high paying pharmaceutical sales job.

Waitress
>In California, waitresses often earn significant tips due to high service industry standards, frequently translating to $40,000–$80,000+ per year in total income depending on the establishment.
>High-end or busy locations can see servers clearing $70k–$120k annually

That's what would've made it so brilliant and satisfying is nobody would've seen it coming. It was the anti Jim/Pam. In early seasons of Friends you would've though there was NO chance of Monica getting with Chandler. Good writers find a way to make it happen. That's why it didn't happen because BBT had mostly shitty writers.

A girl like Penny would make a fortune in tips, she would be fine for money

>>220015344
I don't get it. What's the strange part supposed to be?

>>220028221
Everyone knows that students are fabulously wealthy and live in lavish apartments that waitresses can only dream of.

>>220028221
>What's the strange part supposed to be?
The fact that a hot girl is even giving the time of day to total NERD FAGGOTS

>>220026377
Monica was a chef, which meant she either A.) went to culinary school or B.) worked her way up. Especially in New York, she was making good money.

>>220015444
I always wanted to play that Space Western TCG they all got obsessed with but I think it was just meant to be MTG which I don’t give a shit about.

>>220016582
>But no they were "nerds" who inexplicably were always happy about the latest hollywood take on their beloved franchises
haha so unrealistic...

>>220028263
Yeah they did an episode where the poor Friends moaned at the rich friends, and Monica was on the rich side.

>>220015344
I believe it. Doesn't she also say shes a struggling actress? This would help her explain any work she did like appearing as a crisis actor on the news

>>220015344
If you are a slutty good looking waitress you can make serious bank.

Not with me you can't
I just pay whatever the item says it costs on the menu, no more no less

There’s an episode where Sheldon said her and Leonard were usually paying her rent

>>220023837
I used to play competitive magic and would sometimes see WH tourneys on the same day as regional events

Who are the students you're referring to?

>>220016582
They never missed an opportunity to shit on George and the prequels but treated tfa like a sexual experience for them.

>>220028313
She did 2 d grade movies a haemorrhoid commercial, and episode of ncis where her scene was cut and an Anne Frank play above a bowling ally. That was her career.

>>220015344
In which world university employees are not broke, even If you're PHD?

>>220029016
Why would they be broke? They made decent money, had no family or social life. DVDs, video games, weekly trip to the comic book store, dinner, the occasional novelty item. They had fuck all real expenses. Sheldon always had a pile of cash stashed away and Leonard had enough to just buy Penny a car.

>>220026104
Sheldon won the fucking Nobel prize

>>220023832
It's weird that they seemed to be setting that gorehound geek girl up as Raj's endgame, to the point of promoting her to the opening, but then just dropped her and had him end up alone.

>>220029177
>promoting her to the opening
Seriously? I must have missed that. Her entire storyline never worked for me anyway, him being genuinely afraid of her and the movies it all seemed retarded.

No conspiracy needed, despite their entitled moaning waiting staff make a lot of money in America.

Think about it:
How many meals do they serve a day?
How much of a percentage of the bill of each meal are Yankee-doodle-dandies guilted into paying as a minimum amount?
How much this increases to if you actually had good service or the waitress had decent tits (or, considering this is America we are talking about, a fat, bulbous arse)?
Consider as well that all this tip money, or as much as they can get away with, won't be declared for tax.

She would have been raking it i and probably getting paid more money than the physisists That kind of cash would only flood in until her looks went, so the physicists will make the most money in the end by a large margin, but a good looking young lady will make a killing as a waitress in America while in their late teens and early 20s.

>>220015699
>but no jap shit either?
I'm 38 and have been into fantasy and science fiction since I was 8.

I have never, ever managed to finish a single Japanese game, manga, or anime, outside those that clearly rip-off Western media and aesthetics, like Dark Souls.

Everything they produce seems shallow and moronic to me, and anime aesthetics are genuinely off-putting to me.

>>220024024
There is absolutely stuff that isn't qualified under STEM that still remains useful as a degree. It just also isn't liberal arts BS.

I thought he was supposed to end up with that fat Indian in an arranged marriage but they wrote her off because she had no chemistry with the rest of the cast

>>220029211
Imagine typing all of this shit out when the show constantly goes out of it's way to show how broke she is. Fucking idiot.

>>220015699
Penny said half of Leonards porn was cartoons

>>220015468
>The average salary for a physicist is $156,344 per year in the United States.
Shut the fuck up.

>>220029427
salaries somewhat scale by region. 156k doesnt go nearly as far in California as it does in Kansas

>>220029339
All waitresses have to pretend they're broke, its like a secret code, imagine what would happen if they were known to be raking it in and how much tax they would have to pay.

>>220029449
No one is saying Leonard and Sheldon were rich but they weren't struggling and were living well within their means. The dumb fucks are saying penny made more than them in tips at a fucking family restaurant.

>>220029478
Tony soprano has to hide money from thr government. Penny has to eat kitchen scraps, strangers leftovers and whatever the guys are having for dinner. She didn't even have coffee.

>>220029449
But a California waitress is only making 30k a year, maybe 40-50k if they get good tips.

>>220029506
As intelligent people they were able to budget and live within their means. However, that includes having a roommate even though technically could afford to live without one. Penny didnt have a roommate, and did not have a tight grip on her finances. Its quite possible she made as much or more than them(at least individually) but didnt have the financial discipline to benefit from it. There are a lot of people in real life that live pay check to paycheck when they dont need to.

>>220015468
The biggest financial mystery of the show is why it made out that Bernadette was making so much more than Howard. When in reality it was probably 50k more than he made. But she had him living off an allowance like carmela.

>>220029010
yeah as I say its good cover if her face appears anywhere unusually

>>220029211
>No conspiracy needed, despite their entitled moaning waiting staff make a lot of money in America.
Not at the cheesecake factory. They definitely make more money than your average schmuck working at a gas station, like double their salary, but even at 15 dollars an hour (new minimum wage for most states) that's still only like 26k-30k a year. A waitress making good tips every night because they are pretty, 60k MAX at a family restaurant.

You want to make really good money as a server you need to get into a high tier restaurant that not only pays you well above minimum wage but will also have insane added gratuity AND people will still tip you a shitload. That's where waitstaff are making like 100k+ a year.

>>220026667
her role is the ditzy waitress. Shes not supposed to ask, she's supposed to spy

>>220029211
>Consider as well that all this tip money, or as much as they can get away with, won't be declared for tax.
The IRS will find out though, unless you only deal in cash and have no way of your purchases being tracked. Also any tip that gets taken from a card gets taxed automatically by the company. You won't be making more than like 5k a year in undeclared cash tips.

>>220029625
Where was her money going? We know she had credit card debt. But she couldn't afford to eat, pay her rent or utilities, her car was a piece of shit. She drank, but not that much.

>>220029646
I don't know what you're trying to say

>>220015344
its a rent controlled apartment and Leonard and Sheldon are cheap, hence why the live together.
they could live on their own but it would mean they would have less disposable income to spend on their hobbies and interests.

>>220029649
She didnt even work full time and when she did she was bad at her job.

>>220029674
clothes and makeup, where most women's money ends up.

She was hottest on Charmed.

>>220029654

Wouldn't that entail visiting the guys at work? How much data is she collecting listening to pop culture nerd talk at dinner?

>>220029625
>There are a lot of people in real life that live pay check to paycheck when they dont need to
It actually pisses me off how my mom seemingly pisses away all her money every month.
>makes 80k a year
>rent is 1400 a month
>all other bills including car and gas adds up to maybe 900-1000 in total
>somehow the rest of her 3.5-4k just magically disappears into the ether
I don't know what the fuck she is buying, but I'm so fucking sick and tired of hearing her complain about money issues and how she "ran out of money for the month" meanwhile me and my partner make a combined 60k a month and have plenty of wiggle room and savings and our apartment costs 350 dollars more than the house she rents. It actually drives me up the fucking wall because I've offered to help and she refuses. I've told her she must be spending too much on something or maybe she splurges too much on eating out, doesn't listen. It's maddening. Before I moved out I was so tempted to give her a verbal lashing about her spending along with a powerpoint presentation showing how it would be mathematically impossible for "bills" to be the reason she somehow pisses away 6k a month, every month. But I figured that would be very reddit of me, so I instead decided to let her wallow in her misery and ignore her end of the month phone calls asking to borrow money.

Meanwhile my Dad retired early and has been living frugally as fuck off savings interest from the 1.5m he has in the bank.

>it's that the nerds didn't care about living in a nice place.
Sheldon's apartment is really nice tho
not including the 2 decently sized bedrooms and full bath as well as a spacious kitchen.

>>220029706
They weren't cheap. Sheldon needed a babysitter and Leonard needed a pet. Sheldon didn't give a fuck about money and Leonard was generous all the time.

>>220029741
Even her make-up was shit. She said Leonard had better makeup than she did. She didnt wear nice clothes either.

Howard was a cuck

>>220029951
She was still fucking her giant nig ex?

>>220030106
That was the purpose of the allowance. If he was a good boy and sat on the cuck chair, he'd be able to buy his comic books

>>220015992
I mean at least it's understandable. America wants to stimulate their own economy. Why would we give our much more valuable money to Britain when you can give it to an American so he can use it. That kind of stuff is why the golden age of America was great, sadly that's pretty much one of the only things that remains while everything else got worse (like companies going public which made everything about shareholders rather than the workers). You know CEOs used to get massive benefits by giving out large bonuses to every employee while taking very little himself and the workers also worked harder because of it. Now CEO takes 2bill for himself, fires half the workforce and marks it off as profit for the next quarter, and proceeds to spread the rest of the workers so thin they either die or quit to be instantly replaced by some DEI hire the CEO also gets paid to hire. Fuck I hate our current system so bad man.

>>220016156
Penny's complete lack of hips and weird obsession with working our her arms really didn't make the best of her slim figure as she got older desu.

She worked at the Cheesecake Factory, not a bistro. The only celebrity I can remember eating there during the show was Leonard Nimoy. It's been a couple of decades since I lived in LA but I don't recall normie places like Cheesecake Factory expecting large tips.

>>220015344
they both have large savings and they spend at least a half of their salaries on hobbies, so when they say "we wouldn't be able to afford rent alone" they mean it would be less comfortable because they'd have to cut on goyslop consumption

>>220029760
they routinely walk her through their work, actually, as they try to show off to the pretty woman all the cool shit they do. then she pretends to not understand to get further information, only to then sum it up quite simply for the audience. if anything, shes quite effective at information gathering. nerds like that do genuinely talk about their projects in more detail in private conversations with people willing to listen.

>>220015699

I think they're saying its implied.

Nobody takes their salary and thinks 'what place can I get with this?'

>>220016465
Psychiatrists charged like 300 an hour even in the 80s. Plus it's always at least implied that he makes a lot of money at the radio station
