    Because it's a journalism board...

    Helen: "Jerry, it was so nice of you to come down here on your father's
    birthday. You've helped take his mind off the condo elections."
    Jerry: "Oh, right. You can't run for condo president because you were
    impeached at the other condo."
    Morty: "I was never impeached! I resigned!"
    Helen: "Even so, the press would bury him!"
    Jerry: "What press?"
    Helen: "The condo newsletter, the Boca Breeze."
    Morty: "Pinko Commie rag."

    This morning at 5am my time, Seinfeld was on Tvtropolis and the episode where Kramer goes into Dr.Whatley's office to get his teeth fixed was on. The Novacane injection caused Kramer to look and talk distortedly. I almost died in laughter at the end of the show when this organization honoured Kramer because they thought he had a disability. While the guy is singing..."smile, you'll smile again (paraphrasing here)", Kramer tried to smile......it was one of my favourite Seinfeld episodes.

    Also, I have a new look on the topics double dipping, shrinkage and regifting due to Seinfeld.

    "That, my friends, was one magic loogie"


    And one of my favorite exchanges:


    JERRY: So lemme get this straight: you find yourself in the kitchen. You see an éclair, in the receptacle. And you think to yourself, "What the hell, I'll just eat some trash."

    GEORGE: No, no. No, no, no. It was not trash!

    JERRY: Was it in the trash?

    GEORGE: Yes.

    JERRY: Then it was trash.

    GEORGE: It wasn't down in, it was sort of on top.

    JERRY: But it was in the cylinder!

    GEORGE: Above the rim.

    JERRY: Adjacent to refuse, is refuse.

    GEORGE: It was on a magazine! And it still had the doily on.

    JERRY: Was it eaten?

    GEORGE: One little bite.

    JERRY: Well, that's garbage.

    GEORGE: But I know who took the bite. It was her aunt!

    JERRY: Well, you, my friend, have crossed the line that divides Man and Bum. You are now a Bum.
     
  4. GEORGE: "I have to go see Steinbrenner later. Mr Wilhelm told him that I was the one responsable for stealing all the merchandise."
    JERRY: "Why?"
    GEORGE: "'Cause when he questioned me about it I was sweating from the Kom Pau.."
    JERRY: "I don't know how you can eat that spicy chicken,"
    GEORGE: "George likes spicy chicken."
    JERRY: "What's that?"
    GEORGE: "....I like spicy chicken"
    JERRY: "No no you said George likes spicy chicken."
    GEORGE: "No I didn't"
    ELAINE: "Yes you did you said George likes spicy chicken..
    JERRY: "You're turning in to Jimmy."
    GEORGE: "George is getting upset!"

    One of the best guest appearances ever: Paul O'Neill, from The Wink ...

    Kramer: Mr. O'Neill?
    O'Neill: Yeah.
    Kramer: Yeah, uh, look, you don't know me.
    O'Neill: I can give you an autograph there, but my pen's kind of screwed up. You'd only like half a "P" or something.
    Kramer: No, it's uh, not that see,. It's about a little boy in a hospital. I was wondering if you could do something to lift his spirits.
    O'Neill: Sure, I could help you there.
    Kramer: Sure, well I promised you would hit him two home runs.
    O'Neill: Say what?
    Kramer: You know, Klick! A couple of dingers.
    O'Neill: You promised a kid in the hospital that I would hit two home runs?
    Kramer: Yeah, well, no good?
    O'Neill: Yeah. That's no good. It's terrible. You don't hit home runs like that. It's hard to hit home runs. And where the heck did you get two from?
    Kramer: Two is better than one.
    O'Neill: That, that's ridiculous. I'm not a home run hitter.
    Kramer: Well, Babe Ruth did it.
    O'Neill: He did not.
    Kramer: Oh, do you say that Babe Ruth is a liar?
    O'Neill: I'm not calling him a liar but he was not stupid enough to promise two.
    Kramer: Well, maybe I did overextend myself.
    O'Neill: How the heck did you get in here anyway?

    "The guy" referred to that was singing to Kramer was Mel Torme and it really was one of the best episodes.

    Also, the one where Kramer takes over the hansom cab and feeds the horse, Rusty, too much food (Beefarino, I believe), giving the horse stomach problems that cause it to stink out Susan's parents. That's also the hilarious episode where Jerry tries to throw the marble rye up to George. I'm still laughing.

    ELAINE: You've got a bus? Do you mind transporting some stumps?
    KRAMER: Do they mind sitting in the back?
    ELAINE: I don't think so.
    KRAMER: Are they war veterans?

    This thread has made me laugh more than any other.

    Frank Costanza at Festivus dinner: "It's time for the airing of grievances. I'VE GOT A LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH YOU PEOPLE, AND NOW, YOU'RE GOING TO HEAR ABOUT THEM."

    Jerry: "You should always carry a pad and pen."
    George: "I can't carry a pen. I'm worried I'll puncture my scrotum."

    George, wearing goggles: "I've got to get out of this city."
    Jerry: "So you're tunneling to the center of the earth."

    Susan Ross' father: "They're all chickens. The rooster has sex with all of them."
    Frank Costanza: "That's perverse!"

    Newman: "KEITH HERNANDEZ!"

    Keith Hernandez on "Seinfeld" ...

    http://www.latimes.com/sports/la-sp-crowe23jul23,1,3156034.story

    Ex-ballplayers, even those such as Hernandez who twice played on World Series-winning teams, "fade into the twilight," says the 11-time Gold Glove winner, who spent most of his career with the Mets and St. Louis Cardinals.
    But "I have people walk up to me in the airport and say, 'Can I help you move?' Grown adults, kids," he said. " 'What was it like kissing Elaine?' Those are the basic questions. It's just amazing, and it's throughout the country.
    "I travel a lot, and just last night in Denver this woman with airport security looks at my ID and goes, 'I know who you are.' I said, 'Well, baseball,' and she goes, 'Yeah, but "Seinfeld." ' That happens all the time."

    From The Frogger:

    George: No. I need a guy that can rig a Frogger machine so that I can move it without losing power, 'cause I have the high score. H-hello?
    Kramer: You know, George, you're not gonna find an electrician like that in the yellow pages. Now, I know just the guy who can do this.
    Jerry: Another friend?
    Kramer: Oh, no, no, no. This guy is no friend. In fact, we don't even get along.
    George: Well, is he good, Kramer?
    Kramer: Oh, he's the best...and the worst.
    George: Kramer, listen to me. I'm never gonna have a child. If I lose this Frogger high score, that's it for me.
