I generally like The Big Bang Theory, but I really hate it when they activate the laugh track to let me know they made a joke.

this is why i can't watch sitcoms. it's so freaking grating. that may or may not have been funny, but now i resent you telling me to laugh

That's not how nerds ask girls out. That's how socially inept people with Asperger syndrome ask people out.

I am the above. This would appeal to me greatly.
flamelier
I sorta find this offensive mainly because I don't and I have Asperger syndrome
washismycopilot
Took me a minute to realize you're referencing the title.
Maxery
According to the Diagnostic Statistical Manual of mental health (v), aspergers no longer exists, it is apart of autism spectrum disorder
tracereading
As someone with Asperger's, Big Bang Theory is about as far off the mark as Red Leader shooting at the exhaust shaft.
eggmuffin
As close as you can reasonably get without using special mind-powers?
tracereading
More like it seems like it's going to be on target and then hits the wall instead, then gets shot down in flames.
Atharaenea
Nerds don't ask girls out. I know because of all the nerds who didn't ask me out when I was still single.
iamollieheissven
Actually, the creator made it clear that he does not have aspies. Not that there is anything wrong in that.
TheGirlWhoCouldntEven
people with aspergers have said they enjoy the character because they can relate and wish creators would admit Sheldon has aspergers,
GasBandit
He was just doing a CYA. It's obvious to anyone who watches that he is.
iamollieheissven
I'll bet ya dollars to donuts you're 100% correct. Is what it is.
barrbluej
CYA?
GasBandit
"Cover Your Ass." Something you have to do/say to keep out of trouble, regardless if you agree/believe it or not.
BritainsNuttiestGuy
And world renonwed experts on Aspergers Syndrome told the show creator that he's wrong, the character he created DOES have Aspergers
iamollieheissven
BBT is fiction, it is not a documentary. They can create what they want. source: Read Dan Quayle vs Murphy Brown.
popejubal
If Murphy Brown's writers tried to claim that her kid wasn't a bastard, they'd be wrong too.
Ummmokay
Instructions unclear, read Dan Brown, uncovered Illuminati
DrIvoRobotnik
It's game theory all over again...
Galactasaur
Which Sheldon is
abopi
Okay honestly it's a comedy show with actors nobody actually acts the way tv characters do in real life
DarthWTF
As a socially inept guy, who (at least according to a psychologist) has aspies: I don't. In general.
Bugar
The fact that you said that sentence makes me think you do not have it so bad. I knew I guy he was a genius in some ways and a retard
Atalung
depends on the level of aspergers, I show all the signs (never diagnosed, Im 19 and at this point I see no benefit to it) and yet I'm 1/2
Platform221BtheShireofAsgard
same. and I know that mbti isn't science but INTJ sounds better than sociopath
behindtheblack
Awww dude, INTJs are not sociopaths. (and yes I know mbti is basically bullshit)
Atalung
a ways from sheldon 2/2

I couldn't give a shit about the whole aspergers thing tbh, the thing that annoys me to some extent is the social ineptitude. But I get (1)
DarthWTF
to crack aaaaaaaaall the autism jokes wothout having to feel to bad.
eggmuffin
No, this is how an idiot who pretends that nothing outside his bubble really exists ask out people
DuckeyBones
Yeah, the moment I posted it I felt bad about insinuating all folks with Aspergers were raging shitheads like Sheldon. My bad. :(
popejubal
And even many/most people with Aspergers have learned how to pretend to be "normal" while in polite company. Sheldon is an ass who 1/2
popejubal
refuses to acknowledge that the things he does make life hell for the people around him. He isn't just Aspie, he's also a sociopath. 2/2
TheLimpinBiscuit
Isn't he supposed to be an asexual too?
metalman125
Sheldon had an abusive Christian mother, and an alcoholic dad who was never around. No wonder he doesn't understand how people work
migit112
Christian sure, but when is it implied she was abusive?
popejubal
She is Roseann's sister. That entire family is abusive. It's amazing that Leonard was okay(ish) after dating one of the daughters.
metalman125
Yeah. She constantly forced her beliefs, kept inside the house, and berated him. Psychological abuse not physical

Interesting, so they film in front of a live audience, then dub the laugh track over the audience sounds when appropriate.

It's actually filmed in front of a live audience. Don't like it? Don't watch it and stop bitching about it
Mrwubbles
Awww did someone's feelings get hurt :'(
coffeeholicsanonymous
Thank you!
SweetZombiJesus
Exactly, that's why they need to add a laugh track.
LordeLordeLordeYaYaYa
Yeah, how dare they say something negative about a television show; how offensive.
IIPhoenixII
They're taking offence to something nobody is forcing them to watch (they probably haven't even watched it). A typical Imgur circle jerk
imaBme
Those poor people. I don't think a "live" audience would necessary mean a laughing one.
tradeofalljakes
Necessarily***
TheGreatWh1t3north
Well, the show started off good, however i do agree that the "problems" are very trivial now, especially that they're all able to be social
TheGreatWh1t3north
aside from sheldon, hes the only one who has maintained the role he was cast in, leo and howard are just nornal people now
IIPhoenixII
Happens to all sitcoms eventually. They're on way too long after they should have ended. It's a type of show I watch when there's nothing on
TheGreatWh1t3north
Its the type of show i have on so there is some other noise in my house, they dont end because pulls enough viewers in to make profit

I don't watch it yet here it is. You are quite stupid arent you? Nevermind, of course you are, you like BBT.

Then don't watch it. It's a sitcom not a documentary
IHatePuns
He's still allowed to have an opinion on it. An opinion I entirely agree with, might I add.
IIPhoenixII
But it's like @BlueShwagger just said in a comment: people on here really seem to hate this show in particular. There is way worse on TV
theysaidtherewouldbecats
As a scientist, people can like what they like. Just because you're smart and think it's stupid doesn't mean you're the authority on it.
IIPhoenixII
I'm a scientist and used to like the show. It got dull though like all sitcoms so now I watch it less
subtlemrs
He probably doesn't watch it. But then has to see it on here all the time regardless.
IIPhoenixII
I don't see it too much on here. I do see way too much dickbutt though...way too much.
subtlemrs
I see a lot of both. I prefer dickbutt.
CitizenJC
Wish I could upvote this more. Since when do you watch sitcoms for scientific accuracy?
loafroaster
Red Dwarf.

Yet, somehow these people inexplicably love Rick and Morty.
BlueShwagger
It would be like bitching about scrubs for not being medically accurate. For some reason imgur really hates this show.
captainireland
Although scrubs is the most realistic medical show there is
FrigginCornflakes
imgur hates BBT because BBT subjects nerd culture to the same treatment that snobby intellectuals got in Frasier.

LikeJDlovesTurk
as a scientist who went to grad school at a major research university I can say that the character traits are sometimes quite realistic
DoctorWatchamacallit
Really there's a spectrum,. On the one hand you get guys like sheldon and on the other you get Richard Feynman
LikeJDlovesTurk
For sure I know many on the other end of the spectrum too
TomtheVisionary
Yes but the writing and jokes are just awful
flatdeer
I agree completely. This show very closely reflects the physicists I had as roommates in grad school although they'd never admit it.
Galactasaur
I hear popular scientists like Krauss say this too. Which makes me think that's why people here don't like it.
LikeJDlovesTurk
yeah, its obviously exaggerated for TV, but sometimes.... not so much
idiotn00b
Successful scientist types always have their science to fall back on when personality fails, whereas your "smart guy" nerd doesn't. They mad

Realitea
Because Imgurians love to bandwagon. Once they see a few people agree that they hate/like one thing they're quick to jump on that train too.
AmazinglyCoolNameHere
I just hate the show because 99% of its "humor" is the same as this post.
Tanrir
I concur, they're so mean about Geologists...:(
washismycopilot
This is true. It's also true in science, though. Hard vs. Soft sciences at war. My mom gets crap for being an Archeologist.
Tanrir
Yeah, but geology isn't a soft science...
SluttyToast
Disagree. Talc.

I laughed way too hard at that, well played.

hey! as a physicist, that show is half the reason i can talk to lay people about my work and have them say " i think i heard that term 1)

2) before on TV" as opposed to "SPEAK ENGLISH!"
JCLgaming
You got something showing there. Your ego.
edwardelricsnipples
Well, so? Everyone has an ego. That's just my opinion. I dislike that show for my own reasons, I thought that was allowed

As a chemical engineer, I like parts of it. Maybe don't insult a whole group of people because your ego is so swollen.

The show about smart nerds for dumb people who aren't nerds.
NukeLaloosh
(1)As a "smart nerd" I think this show is hilarious. I see glimpses of real people in the characters. But you have to remember its a sitcom.

I cant follow sitcoms. Circular, endless, recycled plots feel like staring at someone because I don't want to look at myself.

Pure intellectless diversion without interaction. Like in wall e

(2) It's a caricature of real life. It's not supposed to be 100% realistic. Just like Friends played off of New Yorkers, The Office played
