To me this was a goofy "fart joke" style of episode and I found I was laughing quite a bit.  I am not shocked at the score, yet comedy is such a hard thing to rate as sooo many people have complete different tastes. 

For me, this was a great episode and found it very funny. Sheldon's becoming more and more ''human'' week.

grest esp. from bbt, super funny.

If by awful, mean spirited and sour you mean hilarious....then yes I agree.

 This was one of the funniest episodes of the entire series. 

This episode got a C? That is just craziness. That was one of the funniest episodes ever. I found myself laughing out loud so many times. I even kept this episode in my TIVO just so I can go back and laugh again and again.
