[4KidsRocks1]

Gentlemen, I am now about to send a signal from this laptop through our local ISP, racing down fibre-optic cable at the speed of light to San Francisco, bouncing off a satellite in geosynchronous orbit to Lisbon, Portugal, where the data packets will be handed off to submerged transatlantic cables terminating in Halifax, Nova-Scotia, and transferred across the continent via microwave relays back to our ISP and the X10 receiver attached to this (clicks mouse, lamp switches on) lamp.

[cx1designs]

@4KidsRocks1 CLASSIC!! I love how he pauses, then says, "lamp". Ha ha ha ha!!

[WillyTung]

[BecauseICanIDo]

Leroyyyyy Jekins!!!

[TheEnglishWonder]

i've just realised i'm very like the group...

i shout when playing video games even though the person is next to me, used speech recognition, controlled something with something other than it's original remote/switch,danced kind of like that to that exact piece of music, own a remote control car, have a twin, wear glasses, have mixed race skin, have started learning another language, have searched a blog which i couldnt find. woah.

[littlesmew]

@joranjopie

well spotted.

I am a bear of very little brain and misused the term.

I am picturing the withering look that Sheldon would give me for this over-sight...

Oo:

[littlesmew]

Maybe 17 people have no measurable sense of humour.

Ba zinga.

<o;

[joranjopie]

@littlesmew

how is this a bazinga? Clearly this statement is true.

[OcTorthed]

The wipe was their own fault, bad planning

[turellsolution]

I've played alot of MMO's in my gaming history.. And I can never figure out what MMO any of these Tv shows are playing...

[TheCJShameless]

Yah,,,HALIFAX,Nova Scotia

[Letasiful]

Hahaha is it sad that I know exactly what the sword of Azeroth is O.O

[Hel1tjeOtje]

Because we Can :D

[b10hz4rd]

OHHHHHHHHH MY GOD SO MANY GOBLINS!!!! TONIGHT I SPICE MY MEAD WITH GOBLIN BLOOD!!!

[k24601]

It wasn't just Raj and I think actually Raj just used his hands and lip synched but i know I could be wrong. Everybody in the room (except raj probably) said "Because we can." at the same time and since Raj usually has a problem with talking to women, if he did actually say it at the same time as the other guys instead of lip synched then it's entirely possible he consumed alcohol earlier but we just didn't get to see him do so or it's a mistake that nobody noticed.

[k24601]

I'm pretty sure they never said what game they were playing so why assume it's WoW? Newsflash : WoW isn't the only online fantasy game in the world, especially not the only one with goblins and wizards, ect. A lot of games, of course especially fantasy games...have wizards and goblins....even if they're playing a made up game it's quite possible this sword of azeroth or whatever would exist in aforementioned game.

[seminifero]

jajajajaj 7:40 la canelaaaa juajajajjaja

[krispragnell19]

=]



[turellsolution]

5:08

[gd17102009]

Does anyone know what music it is that comes out of that stereo?

[zacandsabby]

helen boxlightner?

OLOLO

[TheGreatMe95]

[Davetacular45]

@TheGreatMe95 Really? It looks like Raj just gestures

[sutro19]

[polkanator]

Is it me or was Sheldon a lot more mellow back in season 1

[lovellespice]

what's a cold opening?

[TrufflesTheMushroom]

@lovellespice Showing the main characters in a funny or dramatic 'slice of life' scenario showing something exaggerated that they do every day, ex. Batman busting Penguin or the CSI team catching a serial killer. Used as a dramatic device to showcase how 'cool', or in this case 'nerdy' the characters are and providing a good 'clean slate' plot opener with the added bonus of familiarizing first-time watchers.

[vintagefish921]

@lovellespice  Cold opens are scenes shown before the title sequence or opening credits. It's a technique used to engage viewers as soon as possible so they won't change the channel. It's sometimes used in movies, too (like the 'Harry Potter' movies). 'Law & Order', for instance, always shows the crime being committed or crime scene being stumbled upon before the credits. That's a cold open.

[TheLeybear]

World of Warcraft!

[atwch]

@cockels2000 azeroth

[stanjiboy]

what are they playing?

[derrick713]

i would love to run the red corvette

[00Wisbo00]

Not now i have a blog to find

[yukit91]

why do they have to wear the stupid earphone when all of their teamates are sitting right beside them=-=

[sdoctor]

@yukit91 Because it makes us feel cool.

[MyNameIsForve]

@yukit91 hw the hell they play any game without ever using a Mouse that is the question that has been bothering me throughout the series xD

[hatzblue]

@MyNameIsForve most laptops have mousepads on them lol

[MyNameIsForve]

@hatzblue /facepalm

try to play any game with mousepad, especially something like wow, thank u will get what i mean

[hatzblue]

@MyNameIsForve i have and it's fairly easy

[MyNameIsForve]

@hatzblue My bullshit detector is showing over 9000

[hatzblue]

@MyNameIsForve I assume troll because after a week they're as easy to use as a normal mouse.

[GreatYamatanoOrochi]

@yukit91 because we can?!

[zakbrogden]

2:29 no-ones ever done that before?

[Naruto1ownsSasuke]

[515shawn]

[Kerridee100]

The opening with the Space Oddessy theme is priceless. : P

[OnlyForever82]

In unison: "Because we can!"

[beaverfeaver12]

lamp

[laskahond]

loll 6.29 budddyyyyyyyyy..... and then that face. awesome,.

[rebeccatjuh1997]

I love those boys!!!!

[Songsmirth]

Leave it to Howard to be the one out in front. lol Too bad Penny didn't find out. She must have a frying pan. . :)

[Attero93]

Sword of Azeroth is in WoW, and there is no such thing as "Gates of Elzebub"... So thats kinda fail... I mean, if they are supposed to be nerds, cant they just ask one of the millions of people who play WoW to help them with the script...

[diab0lik5]

@Attero93 I think the reference to WoW was all that they wanted to do. In any case, from my knowledge as a non-WoW-player, there is NO Sword of Azeroth, only the Twin Blades of Azzinoth, so....

[Attero93]

@diab0lik5 Well, if Im not mistaken, there has been a sword of azeroth which was one of the GM weapons, but ofcourse it could be the twin blades Im thinking of. Havent played WoW for quite some time now, so I could be remembering wrong. But then if there has never been a sword of azeroth, then they are even more mistaken :P I have no problem with how they did it, its just that it would have been more fun for actual WoW players if they used things from the game instead.

[laskahond]

@Attero93 the sword doesn't exist ;)

[laskahond]

@Attero93 i'm a wow player and i can ensure you that there is no such thing as a Sword of Azeroth.

[Logh0s]

@laskahond nerd! lol

[JoosDogg]

"Tonight I Spice My Meat With Goblin Blood!" Best line of the season!

[wowmageownz247]

whats the song from 3:12-3:40?

[rocketman544]

@wowmageownz247 Strauss--Also Sprach Zarathustra. 

[fjellt]

Who's in charge of the red corvette? The BEST!

[hvt3000]

Raj is using a mac, but presses ctrl and shift keys..... ha ha ha...

[qwertykey15]

@hvt3000 macs have ctrl and shift keys....

[sumanmighty]

I have the blog to find LOL!!!!!!!

[MCB400100]

@sumanmighty a blog*

[19person895]

Raj's dancing at 3.25...I love that man!

[anglaismoyen]

Maybe the phone didn't work because they were saying "Hoff-stedder", instead of "Hoff-statter".

(Technically, the German pronunciation is something like "Hoff-shtater").

[teerah003]

Howard said Halifax, Nova Scotia! :D highlight of my liiiife.

[Search4Goods10]

@teerah003 HAHA YES!, the fact they even know what halifax NS is pretty neat

[LittleGregH]

No one expects Howard Wolowitz no wait... it was Spanish Inquisition XD

[nef1y]

whats the name of the song in 3:10?

[OzSweetness]

@nef1y Seconding this!

[GoalieBabe76]

I'm a sword master.

[johnnydabest10192]

"Not now, I have a blog to find!!"

[Songsmirth]

It's like trying to teach a baby. X3 + X4 = X7. Penny can't appreciate what they've done because she doesn't care. . . :) They could explain all day but if a person isn't into a subject they could care less, no matter how much you do. :)

[dirntsmoshgirl]

15 people are goblins. D:<

[loserkidDJ182]

Does anyone know which episode the third opening is from? I've been trying to find it for YONKS

[winglessdreams]

Does anyone find it odd that they're not using mice? >.>

[Dettmo79]

@winglessdreams Progamers

[STNeish]

@winglessdreams perhaps their laptops have touchpads...?

[winglessdreams]

@STNeish

You can play MMORPGs with touchpads, just not as practical from my experience. Or maybe I'm just not good with touchpads. >.>;

[wallefan10]

buuuddyyyyy! lol that crack me up every time

[routtee]

1:28 to 1:36 you can clearly see there's nothing on their laptop screens. sheldon has the default windows xp landscape desktop background and wolowitz has a blank blue desktop background

[cmommsen1]

@routtee good observation but i'm pretty sure no one thought for a second that they were actually playing..

[ActionJacksonMan]

The highlight is definitely at 3:20 :-)

[Rankpenguin]

Thumbs up if you understood what Howard said regarding turning the lamp on via internet.

[rurouni324]

As stereotypical "nerdy" as the jokes are, I feel it takes higher brain functions to find them humorous.

And that is the best Sheldon impression I got. (sad, I know)

God I love this show!

[djcleanstylez]

@rurouni324 I thought you did great... Bazinga!

[ORCA4312]

@rurouni324 I didn't like the show at first, but I grew to enjoy it. So much of the humour requires knowing the personalities of the characters.

I would say that the last few season four episodes I have watched (#412-415) were not very good. I hope they turn that around.

[lcolby11]

Funny show, I am ashamed to say when I first saw this show I thought it was about Homo-Gay men,,hahahaha,,This show goes way over the top to depict geeks and nerds,,I can tell you from personal experience.

[lcolby11]

Funny show, I am ashamed to say when I first saw this show I thought it was about Gay men,,hahahaha

[LadyLOVEBITEZ]

raj is the cutest indian i have ever seen
