When saying "I don't think I'll be able to stop thinking about it", is Penny happy or unhappy?
Howard: Yeah, I've had him since level ten. His name is Buttons. Anyway, if you had your own game character we could hang out, maybe go on a quest.
Penny: Uh, sounds interesting.
Howard: So you'll think about it?
Penny: Oh, I don't think I'll be able to stop thinking about it.
Raj: Smooth

Penny is being sarcastic, she is acting like she is excited about it but in reality she is not. Sometimes it is hard to understand sarcasm when you are reading something but I know this is from the Big Bang Theory and Penny is a pretty sarcastic character :)
