3. That time he slept with a geology textbook

Sheldon says that geology is "the Kardashians of science." So, when Sheldon found himself hungover in bed with his geology textbook, he definitely felt the "shame" in "walk of shame."

5. That time he realized he loved Taylor Swift

When creating a sound mix to keep his anxiety up (which included The Joker's laugh, Godzilla's roar and Darth Vader's breathing), he discovered that adding T. Swift didn't make him anxious like he hypothesized.

​6. That time he dressed up like a French maid

When Howard was asked to work with Stephen Hawking, he took full advantage of Sheldon's love of the noted physicist. He made Sheldon polish his collection of belt buckles, do his laundry and, best of all, wear a French maid's outfit.

​9. That time he used math to make friends

Sheldon created the friendship algorithm, which was a flowchart based on a children's book called Stu the Cockatoo Is New at the Zoo, to try and befriend colleague Barry Kripke. Unfortunately, Sheldon got stuck in a loop in his algorithm until Howard bailed him out.

​10. That time he got naked in Howard's car

When Howard was given Sheldon's parking spot without his consent, Sheldon became hell-bent on getting it back. Sheldon takes his parking spot so seriously that he was willing to push through his germophobia to sit in Howard's car in the buff.

13. ​That time he flipped out on Howard's moped

Sheldon doesn't drive and can't take the bus because there are no seat belts (and they won't let him use bungee cords anymore). When Leonard couldn't drive him home because he had to work late and Penny couldn't stand being his chauffeur, Sheldon was left with one choice: Howard's moped. It went about as well as you could imagine.

​17. That time he drank coffee for the first time

Don't give Sheldon coffee. We repeat: DON'T GIVE SHELDON COFFEE. After chattering away about theoretical physics for hours on end, Sheldon took full advantage of his Flash costume and excess energy and ran circles around the apartment.

20. ​That time he became a biohazard

In his quest for a non-germ lifestyle, Sheldon was exposed to what we can only assume was a pretty gnarly airborne pathogen. On the bright side, Sheldon got to play "Mystic Warlords of Ka'a" with Leonard, Raj and Howard, all in Hazmat suits.

21. That time he made himself a robot

Sheldon created a robot that could go out into the world for him so that he could stay safe in his bedroom. Because of his sense of impending doom, he missed out on meeting Steve Wozniak at the Cheesecake Factory.

​22. That time he smiled... kind of

When Leonard asked Sheldon to smile, Sheldon flashed various forms of what can only be described as "murderous clown grimaces." All versions were terrifying, but everyone agreed that the closed mouth smile was the least scary.

23. That time he played bongos

Why would Sheldon play bongos? Well, apparently Richard Feynman, one of America's most important theoretical physicists, who was responsible for the theory of quantum electrodynamics, played them. Duh.

24. That time he was under the influence

When Howard slipped a handful of Valium into Sheldon's warm milk, we learned that Sheldon can't keep any secrets when he's high, not even that his mother smokes cigarettes and that he is, in fact, Batman.

25. That time he saw his mom doing it

Unfortunately for Sheldon, he witnessed his mother doing the dirty and was scarred. When Howard asked him what happened, he responded with, "I saw my mommy with a naked man and she was trying to be a mommy again."
