She’s admitted she’s bullied. She’s exploited men. Look at how weedy and pathetic he is, yet also how honest he is with his perversions. He doesn’t try play the I am your friend act, he fully admits what he is. Yet she still stays around. He’s full of so many inadequacies, riddled with so many toxic emotional traumas dating back to childhood. He’s a desperate clown, a lonesome jester. Deep within his lust because he think so low of himself that why would he think anyone could love him. She’s more socially aware, more socially conscious than him in ways of social interaction, the hierarchical paradigms. I am not excusing Howard but at least he doesn’t sell her a ruse. Yet she sticks around? Why? Because he’s not a threat and showers her with compliments. Even when she’ doesn’t want them. She gets them. Everyone is a Creep. But better the creeper you know than the creep you do not.

I should've phrased that a little better. Sorry. I didn't mean that he'd rape Penny. I meant that as he wouldn't stop at the tongue kiss if he was allowed to take it further. If that still sounds wrong, then I'm sorry. I don't know how to put it to make it sound better.

[@Mislav24]

If you are implying that he would've raped her, you've obviously been watching a different show. If you are implying that he would've taken it further if allowed by her, I don't know what that has to do with justifying Penny's actions.

[@joshuavlogs3454]

howard's character development is amazing

[@alexandersampson6799]

Nothing like a women who doesn’t want you I have had a friend/ peers take there own life over it I’ve been through it took me a long time to get over it but in the end it’s not the woman’s fault if they don’t want you they are obviously not the right woman for you least some women are honest about it and don’t lead you on … you get one life don’t waste the time or give the time to hate someone who doesn’t want you just have to move on and make the best of the time on this rock

[@anujsingh8757]

Little does Howard know he's gonna marry a great woman and have two kids

[@-viscupcake-5646]

Why is she the one apologizing? She told him many times she wasn’t interested and yet he kept doing what he was doing. Not only that he proved that he not a good person after he tries to kiss her. Yes he improved in the future but he was a creep. This literally proves that it’s women who have to apologize for mens idiotic behavior. It’s infuriating.

[@deshawnwinn9454]

Oh I don't know, maybe because what penny said pretty much made Howard depressed and depression can destroy a person.

[@-viscupcake-5646]

@@deshawnwinn9454 are we totally forgetting that right after she apologized he literally tried to kiss her? What she said was true. If he didn’t stop being creep he would end up dying alone. He was a creep who thought that if any woman even so much as said hi to him he could make a move on her even after she’s blatantly said she doesn’t like him.

[@CyanHope]

@@deshawnwinn9454 almost like he tried violating her, using depression to justify victim blaming is disgusting. HE FUCKING INSTALLED A WEBCAM TO SEE HER NAKED WITHOUT HER CONSENT!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@hsd287]

How is it a proof ? Howard was literally a part of her group that's y she did it because the friends insisted she did hurt Howard

[@pelidonte]

Good thing he met Bernadette, so he can look back on this memory and laughing at it instead of crying over it.

[@podsmpsg1]

He needed to learn a lesson, which he did. If I tried to touch a woman without her expressed permission, I'd get punched or slapped too. I don't do that because I was raised better than that and know what could happen.

[@chris_zed7425]

I kinda wish we saw a clip of mrs wolowitz trying to tackle penny 😂

If she did she probably would have caused another earthquake in Tokyo

What a punch! Way to go, Penny!

[@Bostonterrierslol]

You practically asked for it Howard! If i were Penny's brother or BF i wouldve done WORSE FAR WORSE

[@tomtonka1915]

+Bostonterrierslol Penny was the one asking for it. Going into a rapists bedroom and sitting on the bed next to him so their asses are touching and then putting her arm around him and stroking his hand and wrist. This is Howard we are talking about. She's lucky she didn't get pregnant.

[@elliotappleton3266]

That's evil....

[@mz3918]

Tom tonka she was trying to comfort him for something she said, she didn't ask for it so if a women has a pervert friend and he tries to kiss her or something it is her fault?

[@henrypeters5291]

To be fair, if I were her brother I wouldn't be pissed. It wasn't perverted so its okay with me.

[@brodiebashford4407]

His hair actually looks normal for a change lol.

[@wittyroark]

Howard's character arc was the best..... once he married and became a father .. he was a totally different person...

[@richardselfridge2926]

Repeat to yourself, "This is just a show, I should really just relax!"

[@keyojohnson8210]

You know how someone is being nice to another person but they think they might like them well Howard's one of those Nerds 3:55

[@DarknessOfRedbone]

I always sided with Penny on this. Stuart ran into the same road bump as Howard later on in the series.

[@ethanshepherd4963]

They should have done an episode where the gang was introduced to this Marcie Grossman, much to both Howard and Bernadette's shock

[@Fazzel]

We did get to meet his cousin Jeanie. The one Howard had sex with. Bernadette was sort of shocked by that.

[@jonpowell4246]

I hate when people do that! It's why when I'm feeling down on myself I want people to leave me alone because then they start telling me nice little lies about myself so they feel less guilty for having something I never will all the while disguising it like they're trying to make me feel better about myself. Last person who did that to me I told them "either you shut up and leave me alone or I walk away and we never speak of this again." That was the end of that.

[@danielwilliamson6180]

4:07 Good on you, Penny!

[@hyperslash2144]

this might have been the start of his character development

[@FoxGamer39618]

Nice punch Penny.

[@Mislav24]

Seek help.

[@FoxGamer39618]

Who?

[@Mislav24]

Anyone who finds that scene funny or admiring.

[@FoxGamer39618]

I could say the same for anyone who finds Sheldon, or Beverly (The characters, not the actors who play them) funny. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and I will respect yours.

[@FoxGamer39618]

Okay. I'm sorry about what I said. Look, I don't mean to say that he deserved the punch, nor am I congradulating Penny for punching him. I just meant that it certainly left its mark. I apologise if I came off as a dick. That wasn't my intention.

[@hsd287]

It's amazing seeing Howard like that and when Penny tries to help him he kisses her 😭

[@TimpBizkit]

I'm not sure where the punch came from because she could just move out of the way. Also she pins Sheldon down and kisses him which Howard wasn't doing. Although if the kiss was a really quick lunge played in slow motion then it could startle her. Also Howard is a creepy voyeurist

[@RichardGarza-zo9mo]

Howard, you got knocked the F*ck out! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@logandockery1512]

Howard crying sounds an awful lot like Chef Pee Pee laughing

[@kurokage2337]

I’ll say this again. He tried it. And failed.

[@markstott6689]

Just as the punch impacted there was the sound of birdsong from outside. I could imagine tweeting birds circling Howard's unconscious body.

[@safakguney6912]

12 dislike came from Sheldon

[@kyledass7162]

Anyone else come to this video because they knew the comments were gonna be an absolute shitshow masterpiece. 😂😂😭

[@smillstill]

Generally, a woman *might* be offended by you trying to kiss them in such a situation, but would respect you for having the confidence to try and just brush it off, but Howards took Penny on a ride to Creepsville a few too many times before, so the attempt was loaded with creepiness!

[@happymittens92]

I never understood why Penny had to apologize. Howard sexually harassed her for months and she finally got fed up and told him off.
