Two Jerk with a Heart of Gold Breakout Characters from late 2000s sitcoms, Barney Stinson of How I Met Your Mother and Sheldon Cooper of The Big Bang Theory, face off against each other in a rap battle.
This rap battle contains examples of:
- Did Not Get the Girl: Sheldon mocks how the ladykilller Barney doesn't end up with anyone, not even his Love Interest.
- I Banged Your Mom: Being a casanova, Barney uses this to cap off his first verse. Conveniently, the words "Mother" and "Bang" are in the title of the rappers' shows.Barney: How I Met Your Mother? It started with a Big Bang!
- Laugh Track:
- To set the sitcom-vs-sitcom theme, the battle starts with a laugh track being played.
- The Big Bang Theory's use of this is called out by Barney.Barney: Tell that laugh track that plays after every two words!
- Shout-Out:
- Barney calls The Big Bang Theory showrunners Sith Lords.
- Sheldon saying Robin (Scherbatsky) not wanting to be Barney's "sidekick" is a reference to Batman's sidekick Robin.
- Seasonal Rot: In-universe, Barney calls Sheldon's look as lame as his show's later skits.
- Virgin-Shaming: As the womanizer between the rappers, Barney mocks Sheldon's aversion to sex.Barney: Call this battle virginity, it's the only time you'd lose it
