Amy deserves better. Hell, all of the women on this show deserve better. They shouldn't put up with this crap .

Well, no real woman would ever put up with those guys. Especially women that look like Penny and Bernadette.

Anyway, not too many laughs this week, though the bit with Leonard and Penny on the couch talking to Sheldon was pretty good.

I've worked at video game companies for the last 9 years, I see plenty of nerds with attractive significant others.
Really disliked this episode though, this was one of those episodes where Sheldon comes off too poorly all around and completely unlikeable instead of awkwardly funny.

My guess for further plotlines in the season (not spoilering this, 'cause it's just what I think might happen...it's not based on any real knowledge at all): They're making Sheldon be a real dick so Amy will break up with him. She starts dating others, Sheldon gets jealous, season finale they finally sleep together.

No one would put up with Sheldon's total lack of social skills in a workplace, much less a girlfriend who's underappreciated and probably horny as hell too.

Bernadette was a fucking hypocrite. She can hang out with her girlfriends but when Howard spends time with his guy friends she goes apeshit. He even said that he was gonna spend time with her the next day but that wasn't enough was it bitch!

So to Bernadette it seems that even though Howard has enough time to spend with friends during the day, he continues to spend his time with them after work instead of with his wife. I can see how she'd take that personally. And she doesn't work with her friends, so she has a harder time balancing them and her husband.

I think Bernadette hangs out with her friends BECAUSE Howard is busy with his friends. Given the choice she'd be with him.

The way Bernadette treats Howard, I can't say I blame him for wanting to get away from her and hang with his buds. There's definitely a side to her personality that is controlling, bossy, and belittling.
Granted, there's some kind of weird Oedipal thing going on between Howard and Bernadette where he married a woman who constantly screams at him like his mother.
I could sort of see Howard developing some feelings for Amy after the scavenger hunt episode.

They have certainly been giving her a harder edge since the wedding. However ask anyone who's married if that sweet girl that said "I Do" is the same one they are living with a year later. You marry them for the second set of lips not realizing you get a second set of teeth.
Why are brides always smiling? They know they've given their last blowjob.

Agreed. Her tone may have been over the top, but she's in the 'right' on this one.
