This episode probably have changed my life as well... especially the way I raise my kids.. which is the direct opposite of how I was raised... I am now applying it to my next venture... major moves man ... :)
@zul4real Funny thing I always tell people that U can relate alot of the Seinfeld shows to real life situations..lol.My analogy of Seinfeld is that either U like it or U hate it.Theres nothing in between.Its like saying that someone loves to eat cheesecake or they hate eating Cheesecake.No one likes Cheesecake only a little bit.Either its alot or not@all..lol.Im talking about real New York Cheesecake & NOT the other different flavor stuff that doesnt even taste like regular Cheesecake!
I can honestly say that I did the opposite just like George in this episode and it worked for me. I wish I could meet Jason Alexander and tell him that. Hah.
If you’re a Seinfeld fan, then check out “The Seinfeld Rap” that I made. I also made a music video/picture show to go along with it. I put a lot of work into it and if you’re a fan of the show, I think you will really like it. Check out my channel, it is my latest upload. Thank you for listening.
George and Elaine are always on the opposite ends of the spectrum, every time something good happens to one, the other suffers! SOURCE: The Opposite and The Abstinence.
IMNSHO . . . I think the best Seinfeld quote of all time occurred just a few seconds earlier in the same episode, The Switch, when George said, "Do you ever just get down on your knees and thank God that you know me and have access to my dementia?"
@herbertificus Yeah I get that but I still like the earlier line, just the way he blurts it out, the delivery was the best it could be ARE YOU CRAZY? THIS IS LIKE..... Just perfect.
omg george and kramer are hilarious. I dont know when I laughed harder, when I saw George say that line or when Kramer walked into Jerrys home on "Pipe night" hahahahahahahahaha
This episode and the Blind date episode are in my top 5 favorite episodes...EXACTLY because in them, GEORGE PLAYS THE MAN and overcomes his usual, weasel self.
I always thought steinbrenners character on seinfeld sounded like andy kaufmans tony clifton, & I thought that's who they were trying to make it sound like, after all, Kaufmans manager helpred produce the show
Jesus Christ!! You mean that rant at the movies was based on an original rant by no one else but Buddy Rich??? Now that's a piece of interesting information!
Yeah, but English is the international language so its confusing when someone you expect to go haha pulls a jaja.
And kaka means poop so I'm pretty sure nobody uses that.
and etc is an abbreviation for "so on", "and so on" or "the same way". so that's just off topic.
And finally i wrote that comment six months ago, and that other person explained J sounds like H in Spanish which i already knew but it never occurred to me they would spell HA with a J, it seemed like common sense to ME. Okay?
Well i speak 3 languages, understand two more languages and I'm planning to study another language, either Spanish or Portuguese. And I've visited eight countries which is a lot considering I freaking hate to travel.
Just saying I'm not some kind simple minded red neck idiot. Though I did not know Portuguese speaking people spelled haha with K's, I find that hilarious... I guess that was a bit simple minded, lol.
