I wish I could shrink myself down into a tiny submarine, like in fantastic voyage, then I could really be sure.

...but if i DID find something it might be pretty scary...

She does a face like that at Jerry in the Van B Boys.

ELAINE: So, get this: Mister Peterman is finally letting me do some real writing. He's got this book deal, for his autobiography. He's gonna let me ghost write it.

JERRY: Wow. That's great! When it comes out, I'll have to get someone to ghost read it.

I think they got rid of gangtags a while back. I seem to remember Season 3 of MadMen being the last time people got those.

It's so weird when I hear someone say they've never seen an episode of Seinfeld. No one at my university knows about it. No one. Canada is so lame.

Of course, the upside of that is that every time I make a Seinfeld joke, people think I came up with it myself. It's like living with cavemen and having a zippo.

"Blah-sum"?
More like "Blawesome"
So, I was flipping through my English textbook today, and I discovered a chapter about Seinfeld, all about it, including a transcript of The Pitch, which is followed by critical thinking questions, like "Discuss Kramer's assertion that people "want to watch freaks." Do you think this line could be used to sum up accurately audience responses to Seinfeld?"

That's freaking awesome.

I wouldn't say that "people want to watch freaks" explains the show's success, it would be something closer to "People want to watch themselves." Watching Seinfeld isn't like gawking and laughing at the members of a carnival sideshow, rather, it is like watching one's own reflection contorted in a funhouse mirror. Seinfeld amplifies the kinds of personality traits and behaviors that humans come across in their own day-to-day lives for comic effect. Additionally, and most importantly, the show isn't afraid to have its protagonists act on the worst possible impulses of human emotion, the kind of behavior which the average viewer rejects in the course of their life due to the constructs of the society around them. By honing in on the minutiae of human behavior and raising them to absurd levels Seinfeld makes us laugh while plumbing deeper truths of social interaction, and through its pop culture examination of the darker side of the human persona manages to resonate on a more intimate level with the viewer.

Can anyone find me the clip where Elaine walks in with her comic of a Pig at a Complaint Department? Where Jerry and Kramer give their own ideas. I can't seem to find it on youtube.

My girlfriend tells the worst jokes and I'm always reminded of Jerry saying, "I get it" and she shoots back with, "DO YOU?!"
