Now everything is Bert, Bert, Bert.Īmy: You know, Sheldon, maybe if you take the time to actually read Bert’s research, you’d be less bitter about him winning. Sheldon: You used to make those jokes about me. Isn’t he an indicator of life on other planets? Leonard: They say it could be a potential indicator of life on other planets.

Sheldon: Who listens to the radio any more?Īmy: Bert is studying the way microbes in rocks can survive in extreme environmental conditions.

You know, when they told him he won, he didn’t believe it, but then he did believe it. Penny: Oh, I heard him interviewed on the radio. Leonard: Ignore him, he’s just cranky because Bert from the geology lab won a big grant. Sheldon: Who leaves their bike in the hallway? You know, if I knew how to ride one, I’d steal it. Leonard: I know, and it was the greatest sarcastic quip I’ve ever heard. I zinged him with sarcasm, he didn’t even notice. Martin, this guy knows how to finish a story.īert: I’ve gotten pretty good at telling it. When they called and told me I won, I didn’t believe them. Sheldon: Oh, good, maybe he can build a nicer bridge to live under.īert: Thanks. Howard: And he doesn’t have to use it for research, he can do whatever he wants with it. And if anyone’s a genius, it’s me for the way I brought that full circle. Which brings us back to that hulking simpleton over there. Just like it’s not Frankenstein, it’s Frankenstein’s Monster. Sheldon: Hey, it’s not even called the Genius Grant, it’s the MacArthur Fellowship. Leonard: That’s Sheldon’s way of saying he’s proud of Bert, too. Sheldon: Everything is stupid and I want to go home. Raj: Couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy. Howard: Damn, the MacArthur Genius Grant.
