Remember when everybody in the 2010s tried to be THIS guy? Kinda dorky and non-threatening type
>>220374387Sheldon is not non-threatening. He’s not strong or particularly violent, but he’s relentless, merciless, and easily angered.
I don't recall a lot of people actively trying to be him. I do recall a lot of people being told by their friends and family that they were him, despite not being.
>>220374387Low key every middle class white guy being this cringey reddit chungus dork is what pushed white women to get with black guys.
>>220374387Nobody watched this show and it was actively hated for being huge step in bastardizing and corporatizing nerd culture. It’s directly responsible for a lot of bad shit
>>220374435Buck pls
>>220374481How did it 'bastardize' nerd culture?
>>220374498Learn your history
>>220374491cuck pls
>they casted a gay guy to play an autistic guymakes you think how similar gay mannerisms and autistic mannerisms can be...
>>220374557I know my history. The show is a faithful reflection of nerd culture and attitudes. Nerds just don't like being seen that way.Then and now, nerds are into MtG, D&D, video games, and often work in STEM.They're also, frequently, small and shitty people, needlessly competitive, and poorly socialized.If anything, the show was too kind to nerds. What about the nerds that have terrible hygiene? Only Sheldon gets with a nerd-appropriate gf. The other women are way too hot. They need to be frumpy 5s.
>>220374387No. Sheldon was someone to laugh at. That was the whole point of the show.
>>220374481"Nerd culture" was cancer from the beginning. Get into actual culture like classical music, literature, philosophy, history, painting, anything REAL.
>first day at university>engineering degree>half the class wearing big bang theory t shirts>keep hearing "BAZINGA" from across the lecture hall>the one girl in the group loudly telling everyone how much she loves Big Bang TheoryIt was all downhill from there
>>220374387My nickname was actually Sheldon. People thought I was so much like him that they called me him. Crazy.
>>220374722>I am like SheldonIt's over for you
>>220374387I don't remember this at all, maybe it was just you
>>220374760i think he's very cool
>>220374435your porn habit is not reality
>>220374783He's insufferable. If you've never dealt with someone like him you might not get it. If you are him you might not get it.
>>220374790he is better than everyone else though. his condescending to them is deserved
>>220374857That's because it's a TV show. If he wasn't it'd come off as too mean spirited. In reality these types are never particularly competent.
>spawned two successful spinoffs Pretty impressive.
>>220374387No. Probably because I didn't hang around retards.
>>220374568Damn, you must be gay as shit then.
>>220374387It's called performative male and all of reddit is still like this
>>220374677First day of law school it turned out everyone but me had enrolled because they were fans of Suits. Most of them dropped out within 3 months.
Did you just watch the big bang theory or something?
>>220374986Soon to be three https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuart_Fails_to_Save_the_Universe
>>220374387This is the guy who argues with you on reddit.
>>220374431I'm okay with my grandparents calling me Sheldon. They love me
>>220374387Remember when everybody replied to these threads with variations of his classic catchphrase?BOTSWANA
>>220374481How many interracial couples have you seen in real life? And i mean real couples, not some stacy taking advantage of some nerdy beta black boy to pass algebra. Stop watching porn, friend.
>>220375820wtf
>>220374387If you're talking about IRL, fuck no that was never a thing. If you're talking about tv and film? Fuck no, that also was never a thing. If anything everyone was trying to be that fag Michael Cera. That faggot dominated the late 00s, early 10s playing the same lame ass quirky character.
>>220374431Sheldon probably made a lot of people realise they're neurodivergent. I sure didn't know what the word meant before the show aired but now I do and I'm it.
>>220374387my mom watches this and i often wonder which character she thinks i am
>>220375820I remember you from that thread the other day, man. How's it hangin?
several girls I had sex with back then said they liked me because I reminded them of Sheldon
>>220374387No, can't remember anyone who did
There was a period from like 2008-2013 where nerd culture was seen as cool and girls were actually into geeky guys like Sheldon, it was post-Portal but before gamergate and Trump
