What really chokes me about Penny in this episode is that she acts all offended when Leonard correctly pointed out that he puts in all the effort in the relationship while she basically quarter-asses it, and she has the audacity to claim that Leonard takes her for granted when it's really her taking him for granted. She acted not much different here than Katie did in the unaired pilot when she blamed everyone but herself for her own problems and refused to take responsibility for them.

I wouldn't blame Leonard if he finally had enough at one point and walked out on Penny, and it would serve her right for treating him the way her previous dimwit boyfriends treated her (though, being the dumb blonde she is, she won't get the irony of that until someone else points it out to her).
