Quote from George Sr. in the episode Pish Posh and a Secret Back Room

Sheldon: Okay, so we've agreed on monthly rent. Should we talk utilities?
Georgie: Why do I got to pay for that stuff?
George: 'Cause you use them and they cost money.
Sheldon: There are five of us in the house, so I suggest he pays 20%. Although he does take a long time drying that hair.
George: 20%'s fine.
Georgie: Hold on. It takes a whole lot more water to clean you than me.
George: Hey, watch it. I don't have to let you live here.
Georgie: Let me? I'm paying for everything. You gonna charge me for food, too?
George: Mm, it's not the worst idea.
Georgie: You know what? Maybe I shouldn't be in this house.

Quote from Adult Sheldon

Adult Sheldon: I've always had a curious affinity for Laundromats. Perhaps it's the rows of mechanical devices dedicated to a cleaner world. Or maybe it's the hypnotic rotation of spinning clothes on their sudsy journey to a fluffy, stain-free future. Mmm, look at 'em. Where was I? Oh, yes. Laundromats. My meemaw also loved them, but for an entirely different reason.
Meemaw: Banana, banana... Whoo! [laughs]
Adult Sheldon: Personally, I don't care for bananas. It's a texture thing.
