Sheldon

A party sub implies it's a party.

Your attendance implies that it's not.

Sheldon

I like a party as much as the next man. As long as the next man doesn't like a party.

S9 E21 The Viewing Party Combustion
View quote →

So Alfred, what is it that you do for a living?

AHAlfred Hofstadter

Oh, I'm an anthropologist. I study ancient peoples and cultures.

My goodness, so all the way back to the Flood.

[Alfred laughs]

Sheldon

Don't laugh. She wasn't joking.

Play with your phone.

AAlfred

Well, on that note there are many cultures that have an apocalyptic flood as a part of their mythology.

I don't have a mythology. I have the unerring Word of God. But that's very interesting.

AAlfred

Oh. I don't mean to disparage your faith. Actually I admire it.

Really?

AAlfred

Yes, I'm an agnostic myself, but I prayed, many times, to God to turn my wife into a pillar of salt.

Well, he came close. Turned her into a giant block of ice.

Sheldon Cooper

Why do people cry at weddings?

MCMary Cooper

They're practising for what's coming later.

S10 E1 The Conjugal Conjecture
View quote →

Sheldon, I understand your apprehension, but let me appeal to the scientist in you. Given the five week end date, isn't it the perfect opportunity to consider this an experiment and collect data on our compatibility?

Sheldon

Don't try luring me in with sexy talk.

Okay, Star Trek: The Original Series, the Enterprise was on a 5-year mission exploring new worlds. Think of this as your personal 5-week mission to do the same.

Sheldon

If you want to lure me in with sexy talk that's how you do it!

[Leonard looks proud of himself]

Don't be proud of that!

S10 E4 The Cohabitation Experimentation
View quote →

Okay, well for starters, there's nothing wrong with keeping our toothbrushes in the same holder.

Sheldon, what do you say to that?

Sheldon

I think we should see other people.

S10 E5 The Hot Tub Contamination
View quote →

You know, with us living together, maybe we could think about having people over?

Sheldon

We have people over all the time. We have the maintenance people, the pizza delivery man, that UPS driver who feels the need to ask how parts of me are hanging.

You know what I meant.

Sheldon

Alright, fine. Let's say that we're to entertain people, what type of gathering did you have in mind? A meal? Lunch, brunch, dinner, afternoon tea? Formal tea? Is it a party? And if so, what kind of party is it? Cocktail party, a Tupperware party? Is it a surprise party? Boy I hope it's not a West Coast party, because according to the man on the radio, "West Coast party don't stop".

I'm sorry I mentioned it.

Sheldon

Oh, don't be. You get your hopes up, I knock them down. That's called teamwork.

S10 E6 The Fetal Kick Catalyst

Sheldon

You know, if you like I could call your landlord and complain.

Thanks, but you don't have to.

Sheldon

Oh, I don't mind. I'm very good at complaining. If it were an Olympic Sport I'd complain about what a stupid sport it is, and then I'd take home the gold.

S10 E7 The Veracity Elasticity
View quote →

You're awful quiet. Everything okay?

Sheldon

I'm concerned about Amy. She's acting a bit odd lately.

Just out of curiosity, what registers as odd to you?

S10 E7 The Veracity Elasticity
View quote →
Sheldon

And you realize what the next step is.

Set up a second culture and try to replicate our results.

Sheldon

Uh, no. We lock that door, lower our underpants a little, and make a baby.

S10 E8 The Brain Bowl Incubation
View quote →

[Leonard brings an injured Sheldon into the apartment]

Sheldon

[in pain] Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow...

What happened?

Sheldon

I tried to let go of anger, and threw a rock into my foot.

Then, he got more angry and kicked the rock with his other foot.

What?! [notices the tissue in Leonard's nostril] And what happened to you?!

Oh, I laughed so hard, I burst a blood vessel in my nose! It's fine!

S10 E9 The Geology Elevation
View quote →

Sheldon, you're being a little selfish. Why don't you let Leonard keep a few things?

Sheldon

It's not my fault I'm bad at sharing; I skipped kindergarten.

S10 E10 The Property Division Collision
View quote →

[knocks on the door of 4B] Sheldon, I know what you did, now change the password back.

Sheldon

[opens the door] Well, powder me in sugar and call me a donut, if it isn't Leonard Hofstadter.

Sheldon, I'm warning you, I can play this game, too.

Sheldon

If it's like your 3-D chess game, then you're out of your length, width and depth. Amy, get the Neosporin, somebody just got burned.

Alright, I tried.

Sheldon

"Alright, I tried"? That should be the title of your autobiography. Ooh, a second-degree burn.

S10 E10 The Property Division Collision
View quote →

What is this?

Sheldon

A functional MRI of my brain. I did Sudoku before they took it so I'd be ripped.

I love it. Thank you.

Sheldon

And it's not just an MRI. The orbitofrontal cortex is lit up because I was thinking of you.

S10 E11 The Birthday Synchronicity
View quote →

What's wrong?

Sheldon

I'm not sure. Earlier tonight things began organically and now it's feeling forced... like all the Pirates of the Caribbean sequels.

S10 E11 The Birthday Synchronicity
View quote →

[recapping Sheldon's story for Bernadette] They told Mary they were living together, there was a fight, he got his feelings hurt, then he put underwear on his head --

On purpose. Not the way it used to happen in high school.

Sheldon

I was acting odd intentionally.

Really? So you can control it?
