Say What You Will

A whole new thing. Sheldon is insensitive and embarrasses other people. Wow! He blabs about his and Amy's sex life. Meanwhile, Raj's father decides to cut him off so he can be a man. We get to see more of Bert which is pretty good, but the show just sinks from its own weight.

Trivia
This is the shortest episode in the series.

Goofs
Of all the obsolete search engines mentioned by Sheldon and Bert, only Infoseek and AltaVista were actually defunct at the time. MSN Search and Ask Jeeves have been renamed Bing and Ask.com respectively, Webcrawler was still active but powered by Google and Bing, and HotBot still existed on its own.

Quotes
Bernadette Rostenkowski: When you moved here you didn't have a lot of money; how'd you get by?
Penny Hofstadter: Well, sometimes you can get free food and wifi from the neighbors... Just know you might have to marry one of them

The Prophet by Chuck Gibran

And then a man stepped from the group of villagers and asked the Prophet, "In these troubled times, what should we be most wary of?"

The Prophet said, "Beware the opportune tragedy. The Reichstag. The Gulf of Tonkin. The Archduke. For this will surely portend the end of your freedom, as well as the Bill Maher show. Now that I think of it, Oliver and Bee are also toast."

Then a young woman approached the Prophet. She looked up at his not-half-bad-looking-for-a-man-his-age face and asked, "Why do men seek to possess and control my body?"

To this the Prophet said, "Men covet the divine. And what is more transcendent than the power to create life. To have power over a woman's body is their misguided attempt to have power over god. To be god. With this in mind, keep an eye out for the man who builds golden temples so people may worship him. Having a Canadian passport is also not a bad idea."
