Sheldor the Conqueror

[Wisp]

It's so strange to me that "character development", (as defined by writers who tend to fuck up their shows) is defined as "becoming more ordinary". My own personal character development through my life came from becoming more at ease with myself, and just being what I am, which you'd think everyone does but they often really DON'T. The problem with applying the crap-writer's "character development" to Sheldon is that he was already at ease with himself. He was always, to me, a guy who knew who he was and didn't particularly give a shit if someone thought he was "weird" or "annoying". His stubborn sense of self gave him wisdom, so by all accounts he was allowed to be a snarky bugger. But, obviously, this is very jarring without the physical side, which, as we all agree, has fucked off somewhere down the line, leaving someone with and odd mind encased in a slouching, goofy shell that doesn't sit right with me. Alien Sheldon was actually more human than Cletus The Slack-Jawed Sheldon methinks.

As for fookin' Leotard/Leonard not being a suitable match for Penny AT ALL, ANY WAY YOU LOOK AT IT, I think the reason why Lenny pissed me off is because Leonard was so blinkered. There should have been more coming-and-going ladyfriends like in Frasier. And by that, I mean NO DESTINED COUPLE FROM THE START. The moment Leonard sets eyes on Penny, you know that the writers are gonna fuck around with this idea and not let up save for a few dispassionate "dud" relationships with women that actually have more complimentary personalities with Leonard (E.g. the butter to go with his starchy miserable potato)
