full offense but the mcelroys encapsulate modern nerd culture a million times better than the big bang theory ever could.

Counterargument: The McElroys do not embody the sexism, racism, and other forms of bigotry often found in “Nerd Culture” anywhere near as (unintentionally) effectively as TBBT.

Counter-counter argument: the McElroys embody true nerd culture while BBT emvbys fake geek culture. You know the kind that thinks deadpool is straight.

I was so foolish. Now I have seen the light. I am now clear minded.

big bang theory just has references strung together in a loose way that makes the viewer be like “i recognize that” while the laugh track plays, creating the illusion of jokes. The mcelroys have no sound cues or laugh tracks and tell actual jokes which leave justin laughing so hard his face is a tomato

Okay but to be fair Silver, half the time they don’t even say a joke and Justin is still laughing so hard his face is a tomato

okay but thats because theyre about to say a really funny joke and justin knows it so he preemptively laughs
