  • Pretty sure Dane Cook took this joke lol.

  • I want Jerry's bow tie so bad =D.

  • i would feel more bad if i got the toe too! lol

  • He Really Isn't All That Funny... Show Is A Classic Tho.!

  • It seems ridiculous to arbitrarily pick a word, say it to the person and their supposed to feel bad. You could just call someone a maggot. I'd feel worse if someone called me maggot instead of faggot.

  • hahaha he is, as usual of course, excellent in his performance

  • i would feel worse if i got the toe

  • Awful comedian.

  • @danjozef

    Why is this not the top comment?

  • genius

    

  • " someone shows me one of their fingers and I'm supposed to feel bad.. "

    Lol ! We think the exact same way Jerry :)

  • please dun flame my comment xD ....its just i heard or saw in tv or something, that the reason the middle finger is "bad is cuz back in "barbarian" days, barbarians would cut off middle fingers as prizes(i guess cuz they're the tallest finger?), of their dead enemies...so the "civilized" people of the world decided middle fingers are "taboo"...and eventually became "offensive" lol ...

  • @chidoriookami They would cut off the finger because that was the finger used to shoot arrows, and giving the finger was to show the enemy that they still had that finger, the finger they shoot them with.

  • @maskman07 My high school physics/biology/chemistry teacher told us something about Galileo's (I believe) finger being cut off and publicly displayed after his death as a symbol of anger after some sort of problem with some officials.

    Just found an excerpt from Wikipedia: "...the middle finger from Galileo's right hand is currently on exhibition at the Museo Galileo in Florence, Italy."

    That may have something to do with it. Read the paragraph preceding the excerpt.

  • @ItchyKneeSon I think it's one of those these that many people have a different take on, like the orgin of SOS, I was just saying what I was told.

  • @maskman07 Yea, it sure would be neat to hear a solid truth, though. I used to take my teacher's word as gold, but have found he can be wrong.

  • @ItchyKneeSon yeah you just have to remember that teacher are people too, and people lie or talk about things they know nothing about sometimes.

  • @maskman07 hahaha, T-rust me, I know. I'm an English teacher in Japan. :D Quite often, I have to rethink my native language and attempt to explain why we use certain words and how they came about. Many times I'm guessing, but it seems logical. I'm even revealing things to myself that are obvious, but never took the time to think about because, as natives, we just use terms as we learn them, from other people and hope that their usage is accurate.  I had to come to Japan to learn English!

  • Wow people actually getting technical about his joke on the middle finger, it's just a joke that makes sense, honestly how does a finger supposed to hurt someones feelings?

  • @TheMagic04 i think the joke maybe hurting peoples feelings. i personally find this joke funny.

  • hilarouis?...

    

  • This is horrid. The finger means fuck you. Yes its a finger. But we ALL KNOW it represents Fuck You. By this token, Jerry can do a bit on every symbol in the history of man. Way to think your shit out. God I hate his comedy. On a side note, I LOVE the sitcom haha.

  • @rattlehead1999 it is funny and its always interesting to show how symbols are nothing but the meaning we give them. so i can say fuck you but those are just words and sounds that could be redefined to mean anything or nothing.

  • @rattlehead1999 I think Jerry's point is that the symbol itself (a finger) is ridiculous.

  • It is identified as the digitus impudicus (impudent finger) in Ancient Roman writings and reference is made to using the finger in ancient Greek comedy to insult another person. The widespread usage of the finger in many cultures is likely due to the geographical influence of the Roman Empire and Greco-Roman civilization.

  • look up the origin of the middle finger.

  • "I mean that's really insulting to get the toe, isn't it?"

  • "What this finger even about?"

    "Its about NOTHING!"

  • funniest things about his jokes there so true!

  • its the same with derogatory words

  • True how is finger can be insulting

  • Haha that is so true

  • I think also next time i feel like givng the finger to someone "I never do though." escapilly not one the road. It can cause road rage, which isn't good anyways i would give someone the toe next time and like to see their face expressions like "What the hell is this person giving me the toe for?" lol.

  • haha thats so true. lol. next time someone who gives me the finger i would be like "Is that suppose to make me feel bad? Why not try a toe? That would make me feel even worse." lol. funny :)

    i believe that dane cook did something about the finger as well which was pretty funny. He talked about like "Who invented the finger?" did someone just suddenly get so angery that they went like "Ahhh" or something lol anyways very true about the finger! ha. Oh ya "The Super Finger!!"-dane cook, lol.

  • i'd love to get the toe

  • Very Nice

  • back then when Men were actually allowed to be smart on tv and they had some dignity. nowdays every male on tv is a dumb brick who has a genius...i mean geniuC (this is how we men would spell if we didnt have women)...wife whom he should be very lucky to have found. oh, i miss the old days!

  • Man, '90s shows had so much class compared to today's trash...

  • "You could just give someone the toe." LMAOOOOOOOO.

  • i realized the other day that the middle finger probably did originate from men trying to be vulgar with someone....resembling male genitalia....same with the phrase f*%@k you.....

  • The finger, when held up, somehow resembles male genitalia. In other places one could hold up the peace sign backwards to look like female genitalia. That's the only way it could be offensive and I find nothing truly offensive about it.

  • Does that mean giving this video the thumbs up would also be meaningless?

  • This is a comedy forum.I can read the letters to the Ed. some other time;now I'm emerced in the after glow of a good laugh-chill

  • This also reminds me of the episode the Pledge Drive George thinks the waitress at the coffee shop purposly gives him the finger

  • What knickname could you give to the toe? You couldn't call it the bird, that's already taken.

  • I Love this stand up

    Giving someone the toe LOL

  • The French used to cut off the middle fingers of the British so they couldn't use their long bows. As an act of defiance they'd show their middle finger as a way of saying "I still have my middle finger ass hole."

  • who would show the middle finger? the french or the brits?

  • He is soooo funny/good!!

  • Seinfeldt pwns!!!!

  • When a person gives your a finger, they mean they want to finger you, like get this finger in your ass, that is why ppl get angry and disgusted.

  • People, instead of saying thank you every time, please say Fuck you and save the dignity of the poor abused word Fuck.

  • I want you to lick my shitty asshole clean. :-)

  • But unfortunately I am not gay dear frustrated, depressed, restless, unhappy, confused friend:)

  • How do you know it has to be gay? Do you know if I'm male or female? You're just trying to defend yourself with a bunch of random adjectives to describe me. Really, you can't get any of them out of what I said. Now fuck off

  • I need more people like you to promote Holy Fuck. Thanks a lot. Appreciate. BTW when death strikes my or your filthy ass, its least bothered if you are gay or male or female or Indian or American or President or beggar. Be careful intelligent species. You never know when:)

  • episode?

  • Comment removed

  • HANDS DOWN BEST SHOW EVER O N TV!

  • YES!!!!!! =D

  • CURB YOUR ENTHUSIASM

  • that might be cause you use the middle finger on a constant basic to curse people ... that's why u dont get the joke

  • Actually I get the amusing part, i understand it like i understand math.

    It made me think about smiling but actually i didn't. But really... entertaining - I'd say yes, but HILARIOUS... cmon...

  • I give bad jew comics the toe

  • Woww, what ignorance. It's called different senses of humor. Personally I like Seinfeld-- I have seen about every episode of his sitcom and his stand ups are pretty good, but my favorite comedian is Dave Chappelle-- someone you might consider to be a baraindead-bad-language comedian. It may be full of bad language, but it is not braindead and it is HILARIOUSS

  • @chainsolid mate dave and his chappelle show is some of the funniest shit i have ever seen and so is seinfeld

  • @dudemate78 high five.. lol yea for real tho

  • @chainsolid dam straight

  • @godhead696 I agree. I used to like Family Guy and all that. And in truth it was funny...at first. But it gets old and tiresome and lately too political. I mean, the once in a while political jab is OK but its become a daily thing in that show.

  • @godhead696 lol, oh the irony

  • Comment removed

  • i agree

  • unfunny. but i love that KFC joke lol nice man :)

  • your wrong too dipshit.

  • uh no, it's spelled "hilarious"

  • don't know why its harmful, i gave a guy the finger last week and was chasing me in his car.

  • Seinfeld's kinda making fun of you, bub ;)

  • omg your right

  • Why so restless and frustrated:)

  • I don't man, I'm stressed out. Plus I thought it was an insult.

  • Why was the Seinfeld logo at the beginning so bland and plane???

  • OMG Seinfeld sounds like a spiritual Yogi.

  • that was actually funny... one of his firsts lol jk

  • Yeah it is stupid. idk why they picked that finger but I guess out of all the fingers, that finger is probably the best for doing a certain something. lol

  • Could you be more specific? Why the inhibition? Finger is not the best. There are dildos and various toys too. But all these become useless when body becomes a corpse. That means who was moving or using the finger?

  • No no. you mistook what I meant.

    I'll be specific. When it comes to fingering, the middle finger is probably the best one to choose over like your pinky or ring finger and whatnot.

    Like out of all the fingers, that one works the best. It's the longest and such.

  • That guy made me cried, man, i laughed too hard when i saw this on the épisode.

    Almost killed me, how was I supposed to breathe?

    The guy's a criminal X-D

  • Actually, It's considered offensive to point the sole of your foot to someone. The man's got a point.

  • you're kidding right? what's so offensive about the sole of your foot? i mean i believe you and all that, but humans really do pick odd body parts to be offensive

  • It's a cultural thing...some cultural groups feel that since that is the part of the body on which you tread, you are showing them the utmost disrespect if you display the sole of your foot. As if, to you, they are as low as (or lower than) the ground.

  • But some cultures throw the fucking gross body to the vultures after death.

  • In England the "V," or backwards peace sign is considered as their "middle finger."

    Why can't we all just get along?

  • Woah, then in some pictures, I on myspace, I must've flipped some english people off!!

  • He has a good point. Its just a finger jajaj

  • i would give someone the toe to

  • So funny cause its true, i would be offended by a toe more

  • sorry couldn't help it...
