Calling all fans of The Big Bang Theory—did you know that TBBT is now on 5 nights a week—can you say awesomeness?!?
If you’ve been checking out my The Big Bang Theory posts lately, then you know that I am working on another great campaign with WB Word for The Big Bang Theory in syndication! Since TBBT is all about friendships this week we’re talking competing against friends and the rough patches that can sometimes happen as a result!
In episode 13 from season one of The Big Bang Theory, “The Bat Jar Conjecture,” which airs Wednesday October 10th, Sheldon’s arrogance ostracizes him from the group which leads to him competing directly against his friends with Sheldon's Group. Have you ever competed against a good friend? If your best friend knew that one item that would make a mends, what would it be? Is it as funny as a batman cookie jar?
I love my friends, and the last thing that I would ever want to do is compete against them for something, but there have definitely been times that I’ve had to and the results got a little messy.
One time that comes to mind was a competition between me and a great friend of mine and our rival cheerleading squads at a competition. My friend and I made a pact if you will from the beginning promising the other that we wouldn’t get super competitive against each other, but when it came down to my team and her team in the finals it was hard not to let that happen. Naturally we both wanted our friendship to endure competing against each other, but we also very much wanted to see our own team ultimately win. During the week that led up to the competition we barely spoke and when we did the conversation was strained and tense—it was awful. When the time came for our teams to compete we both wished each other good luck and then watched and coached as our girls took to the mat and gave it their all, but ultimately I had to watch as her team took 1st place. It was tough to see her beat me, but it was ever tougher to see the disappointment on the faces of my cheerleaders. After all was said and done my friend walked up to me with her coaches trophy in her hand and said, “In my mind you were the definite winner!” and handed the trophy to me. No more words were exchanged, we just hugged and instantly all bad feelings, disappointment, and any resentment that may have been there before was gone. Definitely not as funny as a Batman cookie jar, but so special to both of us!

I’m pretty sure that I’ve mentioned this before, but I love this time of year! From the leaves changing to my favorite holiday being right around the corner—Halloween! And another awesome part of fall that I love is The Big Bang Theory coming to syndication—that means it’s on 5 nights a week y’all and I couldn’t be happier!
Last Monday’s episode (“The Middle Earth Paradigm” from Season 1) has TBBT gang attending a costume party in Penny’s apartment and their costume choices are interesting, to say the least. Penny dresses as a cat, Sheldon dresses as the Doppler effect, Leonard is Frodo from Lord of the Rings, Howard is Robin Hood but gets mistaken for Peter Pan and Raj is Thor, the Norse god of thunder.
Now, I am sure that I am not the only one who thinks that Raj, the undisputed quietest in the group, choice of Thor is a bit out of character, but I think it’s usually the quiet one who has aspirations of being big and might—right? On the other hand, I think that Sheldon’s choice of the Doppler Effect fits his character to a T as do Leonard’s Frodo and even Howard’s Robin Hood. Penny’s cat costume in my eyes is a little off for her though as I can see her dressing up as a more female empowered role, like her Wonder Woman costume in a later episode.
So who wins the costume contest in your opinion? I say Raj and his Thor getup. Why you ask? Well, dressing up in a costume is supposed to bring you out of your element, you’re supposed to have fun with it and transform yourself into something that is the total opposite of who you really are and Raj as Thor definitely fits the bill—at least I think so!

I’ve mentioned to you all before that I am a big fan of The Big Bang Theory and I am super psyched that they are now in syndication where I can watch 5 nights a week—LOVE that! And since I am such a fan of TBBT, WB Word has asked me to help them again with another fun The Big Bang Theory campaign!
As with every campaign, each week I am given a prompt or theme to write about and this week’s theme is:
In the Pilot Episode of The Big Bang Theory that aired Monday 9/19, Leonard meets Penny for the first time and is immediately infatuated with her. While his roommates say that she is an unattainable goal, Leonard is an idealist and strives to be worthy of her. Even going so far as to confront her much larger and stronger ex-boyfriend, resulting in him getting de-pantsed. What's the most embarrassing thing you've had happen to you?
Honestly, I don’t usually enjoy sharing my embarrassing moments with other people, but I’ll make an exception—just this once!
The single most embarrassing thing that has ever happened to me was when I was a cheerleader in elementary school. We had to wear spanks under our skirts and over our panties. Right before one of the games I had to use the bathroom so I hurried to the restroom and ran back to the gym before the game started. When I got back to my teams bench I sat down beside my friends and noticed that they were all giggling, I could feel myself getting hot and embarrassed because I knew that they were laughing at me, I just wasn’t sure why. Growing tired of the laughter I asked my best friend who happened to be sitting beside me what everyone was laughing about and she laughed and pointed to the back of my skirt, still not understanding what was going on I stood up and grabbed the back of my skirt and realized that the toilet paper from the bathroom had gotten stuck in my spanks and was sticking out the back of my skirt! I was mortified! I ran back to the restroom, removed the toilet paper and then spent the entire game crying in the locker room…it was truly one of the worst moments ever for me—thank goodness time heals all wounds lol.
Have you had an embarrassing moment that rivaled mine or maybe even Leonard's?
