A Guide to Dealing With the Sheldons in Your Life - Particle 2


Available on Amazon


Q: How to add drama to any moment like Sheldon...

A: You can’t

Sheldon Cooper: This is an auspicious moment. Like Robert Oppenheimer or Neil Armstrong , we need the appropriate words to mark this scientific landmark event.
Rajesh Koothrappali: How about "Die, toaster, die!"?
Leonard Hofstadter: That'll do it.

Q: How to experience awe like Sheldon...

A: You can’t

Sheldon Cooper: I can't seem to get in touch with Amy! I tried e-mail, video chat, tweeting her, posting on her Facebook wall, texting her... Nothing!
Leonard Hofstadter: You tried calling her on the telephone?
Sheldon Cooper: The telephone...!
[pauses]
Sheldon Cooper: No... Leonard, in your own simple way, you may be the wisest of us all.

Q: How to get a slip past Sheldon...

A: You can’t

Leonard Hofstadter: Sheldon has a photographic memory.
Sheldon Cooper: Photographic memory is a misnomer. The correct term is eidetic memory, as I've told you countless times, like in May 7th during lunch. You complained your turkey was dry.

Q: How not to test Sheldon’s patience...

A: You can’t

Sheldon Cooper: Leonard, when that woman moved in three years ago, I told you not to talk to her, and now look, we're going to be late for the movies.

Q: How to get Sheldon to not opinionate about something...

A: You can’t

Leonard Hofstadter: Hey.
Penny: Hey.
Leonard Hofstadter: We're going to the movies.
Sheldon Cooper: No, we're not. We're suffering through an awkward encounter.
