In fact, for a 20-something with that type of personality, I'd be worried if she didn't have cutesy pictures and shit all over the place. To be honest, I think the set people got her apartment dead on with the clutter and mess. I'm willing to bet money that there are many-a young adult's apartment that looks exactly like that. I've had to live with it before. I do think that maybe she needs to look at them and see if some of her old friends are available to slap some reality back into her Also, for someone who is unemployed, she makes sure that impromptu liquor cabinet on top of the icebox is stocked.

It's difficult to tell, because they look similar. AND IT'S A LOVELY SCENE YOU SCOUNDREL. Spoilers are fine. I simply don't care enough to spoil myself purposely. Speculating with little to no information is fun for me! IF it is not for you I will stop.

I've had to live with it before. Yes, I think it's fairly normal to have a fridge that cluttered. Of course it's usually girls in their late teens/early 20's that do this. Just think of the walls of any 13-16 year old girl (of course my walls were covered with cast photos and articles from M.A.S.H. Oh Hawkeue, you sarcastic bastard, I loved you) but usually by the time they're almost 30 the clutter has turned into magnets, memo pads, kids drawings, awards, and most of the pictures are of a super model to remind yourself not to snack in the middle of the night. But concerning Penny, and please correct me if I'm wrong, I don't remember her fridge looking like this. I'm trying to think back on those scenes in the kitchen in past seasons and don't remember it looking like a 15 year olds bedroom wall. It always had a few things, but this looks like someone threw up people all over it, so I'm taking it as just another way the show is trying to "show" us she's happy and has a vast amount of friends we never see or hear about (although to me it's just another sign of regression) instead of writing good episodes that would fulfill and truly make the character happy (a last friggin name would be a good start) RE: 7.24 The Status Quo Combustion - devilbk - 05-05-2014 (05-05-2014, 12:32 AM)Dsnynutz Wrote: But concerning Penny, and please correct me if I'm wrong, I don't remember her fridge looking like this.

More not-so-subtle hints that everything is hunky-dory in Penny-land and that her engagement to the hobbit can only make things better.

I've had to live with it before. I like the juxtaposition of the two characters here. Penny happy and sunny (and deluded) and Amy sad and mopey. And we know why Amy is sad and mopey. Whatever is going on is not about her. RE: 7.24 The Status Quo Combustion - queenoftheDales - 05-05-2014 (05-05-2014, 01:21 AM)devilbk Wrote: I like the juxtaposition of the two characters here.

I was thinking the same thing about the contrasting moods of the picture. Especially because AFF looks so exuberant in the the first picture, which is what I assume to be in the beginning of the episode. It's the face of someone who just got a helping of humble pie.

I would have gone with mental or a bit crazed... yes it's definitely crazed. RE: 7.24 The Status Quo Combustion - queenoftheDales - 05-05-2014 (05-05-2014, 02:13 PM)Tuesday Pajamas Wrote: Exuberant?

Sheldon holed up in his room, cowering behind the bed, as she chops at the door with an axe... "Heeeeeree's Amy!!"
