Penny from Omaha worked as a waitress in the local cheesecake factory in the first six seasons, hoping to become an actress. In the eighth season, she became a sales agent of a pharmaceutical company. She is a Sagittarius, so she should have been born between 1654381October 22nd and 65438+2 1 February 22nd. She was born in 1986.
Compared with other characters in the series, which is the main source of jokes in the series, Penny is not particularly gifted intellectually and has no professional knowledge in a certain technical field, but she has excellent social skills and a deep understanding of pop culture. In the second season, she couldn't connect the flashing "check engine" light on the dashboard of the car with the engine not working.
Penny is disorganized and a little sloppy, and seems to like it. She believes in astrology, so she often argues with Sheldon and Leonard about its accuracy.
Penny is usually kind. When Sheldon breaks into and cleans her apartment, when she faces Howard's "weird" flirting or when Sheldon kicks her out of the social circle, she becomes very irritable. Leonard once compared angry Penny to the Hulk, and Sheldon once told his friend Stuart that if she woke her up, she would "tear him apart like a crazy Wolverine".
Penny's driving skills are terrible (she ignored the stop sign, drove very fast, and left the rearview mirror in the passenger seat of her car in a Hollywood parking lot). She tattooed a Chinese character on her right hip, which is "Yong" according to her own statement and "Tang" according to Sheldon's statement. She uses vanilla oil as perfume and snores heavily (especially when sleeping on her back). Earlier in the series, she claimed to be a vegetarian, except for fish and "occasionally trying steak" (she likes steak very much).
The relationship with Sheldon
Many times, Penny can't understand Sheldon's dull and compulsive personality, so the two of them quarreled several times. Jim Parsons described these two roles as "diametrically opposed roles".
Sheldon tried to use chocolate to "improve" Penny and reward her for what he thought was "the right behavior", just like rats' operant conditioning.
As Sheldon observed, when Penny almost publicly humiliated someone, she would call TA "sweetheart".
Even so, sometimes Penny and Sheldon act like good friends; Penny takes care of Sheldon when he is uncomfortable and lets him sleep in the apartment when he locks the key in it. Sheldon lent money to Penny when she needed it and took care of her when her shoulder was dislocated. In an episode about Christmas, Penny gave Sheldon a napkin that leonard nimoy used and signed. In return, Sheldon gave Penny many gifts and a long hug, which surprised her and Leonard.
Season 8, episode 2 1, Penny even started knocking like Sheldon!
