Could she compete with Sheldon for the title of the most hilarious?

Throughout its 12 seasons, The Big Bang Theory has produced a lot of lines that are now constantly quoted by fans around the world.

This brilliant, hilarious writing was one of the main reasons why so many viewers became hooked on the show so quickly and continue to watch it to this day.

Although most of the hilarity is attributed to Sheldon, you'd be surprised to find that he has a close competitor. Penny may not be as intelligent, but she's definitely just as wacky in her humor.

Here are Penny's top 5 lines, ranked from just funny to absolutely hilarious.

5. "Oh, honey, the buses don't go where you live, do they?"

That was one of the sweetest and most gentle ways to tell Sheldon just how crazy he is. We can only applaud Penny for being so good at covering up what she means.

4. "Your Ken can kiss my Barbie "

One of the greatest comebacks to Sheldon that The Big Bang Theory has ever heard was actually from Penny. Once again, in her most subtle way, she tells him exactly what she thinks of him.

3. "Oh My God. You're about to jibber-jabber about jibber-jabber!"

You can't help but notice how the best of Penny's lines come from talking to Sheldon. Well, this scene was also set up in the laundry room, which makes it almost too good of a coincidence.

2. "Don't play dumb with me, Ricardo Shilly-Shally!"

There's no particular reason for Penny to ever get jealous of Leonard, but the time she does is not pleasant for everyone.

Especially not for Leonard himself, who just gets called hilarious names without even realizing what they mean.

1. "What's up, buttercup? What's the word, hummingbird? What's the gist, physicist?"

It's only fair for Penny to answer the door with these silly phrases after she's been called about a billion times by her annoying neighbor.

For all we know, she's a real trooper for keeping such a positive attitude and being so creative about it!
