    Episode 126 - Anthropomorphize

    Episode 126 - Anthropomorphize

    Using this word could help you appear more charismatic--not to tiger levels maybe, but close. 
    Anthropomorphized animals featured: 
    - Sheldon (and Shelly) 
    - Maximilian Franz Fitzwilliam III. Unlike Sheldon (who's rather shy), Max would be delighted to make your acquaintance, as long as you bring the ginger biscuits. 
    - Andy, Auntie, and Ante Ant 
    - Hobbes of course.
