Nowhere did I say that it's not okay for people to receive assistance, any kind of assistance, whether from the government or from friends or from other sources. Those are perfectly legit things.

Mooching off some emotionally-naive nerdy guys who have a crush on you is not at all the same thing as collecting welfare or collecting unemployment benefits, or friends mutually helping friends. Penny openly states "I'm cute, I get by."

You're talking about people who face financial struggles through no fault of their own. I'm talking about a fictional character who faces financial struggles through knowingly and intentionally making poor decisions, and then uses her sex appeal as a means to mooch off people who are socially naive and unlikely to say no.

I did not write some anti-welfare screed, here. I don't know where you're getting that.

You haven't answered any of my questions as to why people are so quick to make excuses for Penny, while judging the other characters pretty harshly and holding them to a higher standard of behavior.

I agree 100%. Geez, this argument. Penny is not financially responsible, the end.

I have no idea why this single anon posting twice is giving you such shit. This is completely accurate. Penny isn't a poor struggling waitress trying her best to get by. She's a mooch who blows paychecks on expensive shoes, and then gets Leonard to pay her rent. Are these replies trolling or what? Penny doesn't need any sympathy.

You trying to give everyone a hint about you posting twice?
