A great example of how intelligence can make you overthink everything. Penny kept things simple, while Sheldon was overanalyzing and overcomplicating things.
@@prasmitdevkota4251 Exactly, Sheldon's problem is that even though he's extremely intelligent and can easily think in a high context manner, he doesn't know any other way to think and to convey that knowledge.
This isn't how you play Pictionary. One team draws and the OTHER team guesses. If both draw at the same time, you can just look at the other team's board for help! For a bunch of geniuses they are really fuckin' dumb.
No he does not have a point. Sheldon only said that because he's so incredibly arrogant that he blames Leonard rather than admitting that he couldn't figure it out himself.
@@rahulpandey4673 That’s the whole point. The humour is that Sheldon in giveing these stereotypically in-depth “mad scientist” answers to a simple game. That’s the joke.
Sheldon overcomplicated things but hats off nevertheless for having facts straight. Many people consider Marie Currie as French, not aware/disregarding her Polish background and her full name (Marie Skłodowska-Currie, born in Warsaw, Poland). Also Nikolai Copernicus (Mikołaj Kopernik, Born in Toruń, his house still exists and serves as a museum, seen it; it's amazing!) is often mistakenly thought to be Italian (unfortunately also in some school history books) So, thank you writers for doing the research on it 🥰
I read a biography of her written for children/teens when I was younger, and her earlier life in Poland was very detailed, in fact it emphasized on her family's struggle and how disadvantaged they were while her father was working in a school in Warsaw, and how hard she and her sister had to work to move to Pairs. I've never mistaken her as French lol. Apparently her live story has many many versions.
I was actually wondering how are they going to translate this into Czech and I was impressed they found a way. Sheldon thought the word is "Polák" (Polish) when the word was actually "lak" (polish) :D
@@paigetwitchell6433 wouldn't have it been easier to draw a flag of the country or something to that effect if he was relating it to Polish though? This is the times I question sheldon's smarts because a real smart person would find a way for difficult topics to be comprehended easily and not overcomplicate it more
@@firstnamelastname5474 this is the whole point of sheldon's character. He is smart but does not have common sense . He always needs to be told that he is doing something wrong . That's why amy compliments him so much because he somewhat understood what she was supposed to tell him
@@theskyismymuse I thought the representation of the Solar System was actually a Captain America shield. (Noting the characters' obsession with superhero comics and also the fact that the sun was represented as a 5-pointed star rather than a sphere.)
Considering Pictionary is a party game, why would Sheldon think for a second that the cues have anything to do with science? For more general terms, I can understand, but he jumps into quantum physics, one of-if not, the most complex branch of science. Even worse? He mentions partons (which, yes, are a real concept), which who the hell is gonna know what those are? Don’t get me wrong, I agree. This scene is amazing.
Sheldon's reactions on this episode are just flawless. Like how he tries to draw The Present, or cant figure out a simple Chocolate Chip Cookie and says "Only after I eliminated all the possible answers. These are just defining Sheldon, very cleverly written episode love it so much.
That Pictionary thing was hilarious and that statement of a glass of milk next to a choco chip cookie is definitely worth a million dollars. BBT is so underrated.
Assuming "Polish" would have been acceptable, all Sheldon had to do was draw a flag on top of the sausage once Leonard guessed it (knowledge of the flag of Poland wouldn't even be necessary because it would be a natural guess from "sausage".
They should add a twist where they put a Twister spinner in the game to determine what limb they would have to draw with. Note: It changes with each spin.
yet its also funny how everyone still omits her work when talking about Atomic bomb. Unfortunately back then ladies were dismissed quite a lot with their discoveries.
“See? Polish sausage, the model of the solar system developed by Nicolaus Copernicus a Polish astronomer. Finally, that wasn’t enough which should have been, this is Madame Curie killing herself by discovering radium who although she was a naturalized French citizen was Polish by birth.”
Let’s be real, Sheldon would probably say “What has nothing to do with physics?” or something like that. He’s a physicist, and he can’t seem to escape thinking like one.
Credit where it's due, Sheldon has a point that Leonard should've tried something besides just adding more chocolate chips to the cookie when it became clear that Sheldon wasn't getting it and milk is the obvious way to go.
I must say that even though the Italian interpreters did a great job translating this scene into my language, watching it in the original language is priceless.
It is cheating, but they were doing it wrong. You're not supposed to be able to look at the other team's board. They put the boards right next to each other, so even if Leonard (or anyone, for that matter) didn't want to, they couldn't help but see the other team's board because they were put right next to each other and a simple glance to the right or left would show you everything. You're supposed to put the boards back to back so the other team can't see what you're doing and vice versa. Or if you only have one board, you're supposed to take turns and use a stopwatch to time it. My guess is that the reason the two boards are right next to each other here was so they could both fit in the same camera frame so the hilarity of the scene would be immediately evident to the audience as well as being more convenient to shoot.
by playing back to back you're not able to tell whether the other team cheated and just wrote the word on the board or played by rules, so that also wouldn't be the best idea of how you could play the game. I believe only one of each team at a time should draw while two players would be guessing, instead of ending up with one peeking the other's board causing it to be essentially the same thing
I have watched this scene many times and I just realized Leonard broke the rules by hinting to Sheldon by saying the answer has nothing to do with quarks. However, Penny or Amy probably didn’t say anything because how ridiculous the answer was in the first place 😂
Leonard: "How could you miss that?" Sheldon: "Hey! If you want someone to guess chocolate chip cookie, you draw a glass of milk next to it." Leonard: "Penny got it." Sheldon: "Yeah, only after I eliminated all the obvious answers." *Turns towards Penny* Sheldon: "You're welcome."
#VanessaBenette was the Perfect Girl for Sheldon. She had a lot to offer the Show and Talent! #Amy Ruined the Episodes and show. Amy is the worse Actress for the show. But the FUCKING PRODUCER is a Cunt sq. But there is Fucking glass Celine No one can Touch.
Yes! Being a mathematician myself, I for instance, have a friend who once said "Père Noel" (French for Santa) to make us guess "Chemin" (Road). The reason being that Santa often passes by a "Cheminée" (Chimney). No other explanation was given...
Sheldon overanalyzes everything. Typical of people with overly high IQs. They're good at some things----that require deep thinking and analysis-----but absolutely horrible at basic things that come easily for average IQ people. Like driving.
@@MsSopla its the only flag that is made up of 2 horizontal rectangles where 1 is coloured and the other is white (Edit: where the coloured half is the bottom half). So simply shading the bottom rectangle should be fine. He could also just find a red marker. Also, if leonard guessed Poland and was wrong, he would just keep guessing along those lines and eventually get Polish
