so um amy sheldon tells me you're a neuro something

or other neurobiologist your check engine light is on

but the light indicates don't bother i've wasted many an hour tilting at

that particular windmill what is that scent you're wearing it smells great dandruff shampoo

i have dry scalp ah well your hair looks very nice are you a homosexual

No, no, I've just given you a compliment.

Would have been more flattered if you were a homosexual.

Guys, how about some music?

Oh, I wouldn't care for that.

Amy?

No, thank you.

Okay.

Uncomfortable silence it is.

Hey, Sheldon, have you told

Amy what it was like for you growing up in Texas?

No. why don't you tell her all right it was hell any follow -up amy no

i myself grew up in nebraska small town outside of omaha

you know a nice place mostly family farms a few meth labs

I'm sorry how is this better than uncomfortable silence I don't know I was just trying something muggles

hey here's another possible topic of conversation this is a big night for Sheldon.

Right, Sheldon?

Big night?

The winter solstice is a big night.

It's over 14 hours in Southern California.

That's an amusing factoid.

Thank you.

No, no, my point is tonight is Sheldon's first official date.

Discuss. Is this true?

Apparently a semi -incestuous

Teens for Jesus Fourth of July hoedown didn't count.

So, um, Amy, what about you?

Do you date much?

Once a year.

It's a deal I made with my mother in exchange for her silence on the matter,

as well as the occasional use of her George Foreman grill

that seals in the flavor without the fat what about you penny do you go on many dates oh yeah

i wouldn't say many a few what's your characterization of approximately 171 different men is a few

where did you get 171 men simple extrapolation in the three years

that i've known you you were single for two and during

that time i saw 17 different suitors

if we work backwards correcting for observation bias

and postulate an initial dating age of 15 whoa wait wait i did not start dating at 15.

i'm sorry 16 14.

my mistake now assuming the left side of a bell curve peeking around the present

that would bring the total up to 193 men plus or minus eight men Remarkable.

Did you have sexual intercourse with all of these men?

No!

Now, although that number would be fairly easy to calculate,

based on the number of awkward encounters I've had with strange men leaving her apartment in the morning,

plus the number of times she's returned home wearing the same clothes she wore the night before.

Okay, Sheldon, I think you've made your point.

So we multiply 193 minus 21 men before the loss of virginity,

So 172 times 0 .18 gives us 30 .96 sexual partners.

Let's round that up to 31.

Okay, Sheldon, you are so wrong.

That is not even close to the real number.

I'm gonna need a drink over here.

This is very interesting.

Cultural perceptions are subjective.

Penny, to your mind, are you a slut?

No!

No. Let's just all finish our dinners, okay?

But this is an interesting topic.

How many sexual encounters have you had?

Does volunteering for a scientific experiment in which orgasm was achieved by electronically stimulating the pleasure centers of the brain count?

I should think so.

Then 128.

You were right.

This was a very productive evening.

I saw a whole new side of Amy Farrah Fowler tonight.

I did not have sex with 31 guys.

I'll be happy to check the math, but numbers don't lie, Penny.

In any event, now that

Amy and I have spent quality time together, I feel much more confident proceeding to the next stage of our relationship.

And that is?

Using in vitro fertilization and a surrogate uterus to gift humanity with our progeny.

You're still on that?

In these uncertain times, doesn't humanity deserve a gift?

Okay, you know what?

I'm gonna come at this in a whole new way.

Sheldon, if you try to make a baby with Amy in a Petri dish, I'm gonna tell your mother on you.

That's no threat.

My mother's always wanted a grandchild.

Really, your deeply religious, born -again Christian mother wants a test -tube grandbaby born out of wedlock?

Curses.

if i thought of that in the first place i could have saved myself this whole night

well it's not that late you could still go out and look for number 32 good night

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
