Ah, the 'beery swine' himself. The juxtaposition of severe expression and banjo(?) pleases me greatly.
So many of Sheldon's initial hobbies echoed Feynman - except the whole hanging out in topless bars bit, maybe that's next. Either that, or dropping acid in the desert.
Edit: considering the real life behaviours of some of the genius folk in history, there's so much weird the show could cover. with Howard at the JPL, the whole Jack Parsons and the Suicide Squad cried out for acknowledgement. There have been oblique nods to Nash, Tesla, Dirac, Feynman, but the genuine weirdness overshadows the scripts by orders of magnitude. So why, with these for inspiration have we ended up with scripts about licking fucking toy trains?
