Lemons asked for some threads not started by Lemons, so let's see what I can come up with.

How about, mysteries left unsolved at the end of the series? I don't mean stuff like "What happened to Dr Stepanie?" or "Did Priya end up 'Married.. With Children' back in India?" I'm thinking more related to the main characters.

I'll start with two:

What was Penny's original last name?

Why did Howard ask for Kung Pao Chicken when he's allergic to nuts? (Had Bernadette and fatherhood made him semi-suicidal?)

1) Nooo! Not the Penny's last name question. That is so unknown that it has caused entire monasteries of monks to meditate on it for days. But really her last name is Snow. Penny Snow. As in John. John Snow. (That is a GoT ref for you and Lemons)

2) Was that when he wanted to prevent Leonard from finding about his surprise birthday party ? Howard has been to space. Does the International Space Station have those packets of nuts that airplanes have? Maybe they are synthetic nuts, Synthanuts.

3) On that matter how could Sheldon taste the difference between Mango chicken and Orange chicken. Or was it Tangerine chicken ?

Here's one mystery based on something I saw in another thread:

1.Why couldn't Raj have ended up with Yvette the vet?

I'll try to think of some others soon- crazy day today. I'm glad to see that someone other than me started a thread!!

Every time I see the acronym GoT, it sounds like the word "goat" in my head. I just thought you'd like to know that.

Howard ate a Snickers bar or something, at the ER with our favorite nurse, to keep Leonard from getting home too soon for his surprise birthday party. And because Penny promised to introduce Howard to a friend who was (something like) "two drinks away from letting him wear her like a hat."

But that was intentional.

Howard asked Bernadette to bring him Kung Pao Chicken when he was in bed after the vasectomy.

The Yvette Question doesn't qualify, it's like the Dr Stephanie and Priya examples I gave.

Well it had an effect on Raj who I consider to be one of the main characters. That is why I used it. Are you saying I'm having fun wrong, Sheldon?

For one thing, There's just too many things like that. Dr Stephanie and Priya both had effects on Leonard, too. But what happened to them is irrelevant, as is asking "Why didn't Sheldon end up with Vanessa Bennett?"

FINE. Here is an unsolved mystery about the main-est of main characters, SHELDON, that involves no ex-girlfriends:

It was a dark and stormy night, and Sheldon and his friends Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys drew their cardigans close around them as the cold winds blew. They had just arrived at the dark and scary castle to solve the mystery of the pulsing, glowing light which shown from the highest turret. Hesitantly, the Hardy Boy with the longer, flowing hair knocked on the heavy wooden door. After what felt like an eternity, the door slowly creaked open. A man with a lantern asked, "What do you want?" Nancy, trying to mask the shivers in her voice asked, "We- We're curious as to what is causing that glowing light from that turret. It seems to be blinking as if to signal a message." At this the man at the door recoiled and said in a strong voice, "That mystery doesn't qualify for this thread!" At this Sheldon peed his pants and the other Hardy Boy with slightly less flowing hair ran away.

Obviously the glow was from Sheldon's luminescent fish.

Well that would be a good not-unraveled mystery for this thread (if Knixon will allow it). Why didn't Sheldon continue making luminescent fish?

Maybe Zazzles or Lovey Dovey got into his room and had them for lunch giving them both glow in the dark tummies

Because he responded to getting her phone number by immediately calling her to find "humor" in her name and occupation being the same. Complete turn-off too soon after meeting her to recover.

Poor Raj. He just can't help himself.

That wasn't nearly as bad as finding the drone and returning it without deleting the video of Raj saying he'd wear no underwear on their first date.
