I am not any kind of a computer nerd, and I get it. Moreover, in its way, it provides some of the most educational content on TV with very little (or no) left-wing indoctrination. I especially love that Sheldon is so unusually well-spoken, precise and articulate in his speech.
Neither is Mrs Wbill, and she's the one who hooked me on it. Of course, I think that she enjoys it because she relates all of their hijinks to me. :-)
I work with a lady who could give lessons in "OCD" to Sheldon. She was discussing her recent purchase of a couch...it took her SIX MONTHS to find "exactly the right one".
Thinking of Sheldon, I asked her if she had "Her Spot" on it. She gave me the strangest look, and said "Of course, and so do each of my cats."
When everyone in the room broke up laughing, someone explained "Sheldon's Spot" to her...she wasn't familiar with Big Bang. Sometimes, truth is stranger than fiction.
paraphrasing... There’s a tribe in Papua New Guinea where if a hunter flaunts his prowess, they kill him and make a drum out of his skin to drive away evil spirits. Superstitious nonsense of course, but one can see their point.
