Fans of Chuck Lorre shows know that if you stick around until the very end of one of his CBS sitcoms (no small feat, to be sure), you are treated to the rambling thoughts of one of comedy's curmudgeonliest. The latest subject of attack? Construction workers on the 405 freeway.

At the end of this week's Moms and The Big Bang Theory, Lorre unleashed the graphic above, expressing his frustation with the incessant delays on the 405 freeway that were "fornicating" with his commute. His bladder also made an appeal, though rather aggressively, to get the freeway widening project done already.

Lorre, much like his alter ego Charlie Harper, lives in a beachfront mansion in Malibu, but works in Studio City on the CBS lot. While he could take a roundabout commute deserving of an SNL spoof down PCH to the 10 East, then up the 405 North to the 101 South and getting off on Laurel Canyon, it would be infinitely easier for him to take Las Virgenes, Old Topanga, Malibu Canyon, or even the Mullholland Highway up directly up to the 101. His bladder would definitely thank him.

First everyone hates the 405 and second, why is he so passive aggressive.

Deformed by his profession and his general personality?

He's the guy patting you on the back, telling you that you did good while he's calling security with his other hand to have you removed from the premises.

Other than that, a charming guy and a pleasure to work with if the paycheck is all you're in it for, as long as it lasts.

There are plenty of nice places in Studio City or nearby Hollywood Hills where he'd have a 10 minute commute. Why would you want to live on the beach when half your day is spent sitting on the freeway? (if the 405 were completed, it would be no better than it is now) With so much time off in television, have your beach house and use it during the weeks and months when you don't have to drive into town. In the meantime, buy or rent something nice near the studio where you can roll out of bed and be at work.

lol and my dad calls me stupid for sticking to coldwater canyon, no thanks but I don't like the 405, Sepulveda blvd is better if you HAVE to go to malibu or Santa Monica from the western sector of the valley. Ugh I hate Beverly Hillbillies, yes lets add more construction so that all the commoners are forced to buy more gasoline to compensate what they lose to traffic.
