Watching the Calzone again, I love the interaction between George and Newman, it's a shame they didn't interact more with each other, they're so similar in their own ways and could have had some more great little fueds.

Let me be perfectly blunt. I don't care for you, Costanza. You hang out on the west side of the building with Seinfeld all day laughing it up, wasting your lives.

I was watching The Subway yesterday and I realized that a big part of the appeal of the show for me when I was younger was that it was such an explicitly New York show. Kramer's rambling explanation about how to get out to Coney Island is great.

When I finally got the chance to go to New York I did quite a lot of Seinfeld related stuff.

I must win every thread in GBS. I don't care how much banal semantic quibbling and shitty posts it takes.
I went out to NY a few years back, and I emailed the real Kramer and said I wanted to buy him a beer, and he responded that he was going to be out of town, but he'd be up for it the next time I went. :D

Incidentally, the old guy who works as a waiter at Monk's/Tom's Restaurant, is that Tom? Because he seems way to old and confused to still be working as a waiter otherwise. I asked if they had wifi and it took me nearly ten minutes to explain what that meant. He thought it meant wireless electricity.

My assumption is that he wasn't broke at all, just cheap. The guy who keeps a dollar because, "it's wrinkled; it's worthless," would never break his own five when he can borrow a buck instead.

Resorting to seinfeldscripts to see the actual wording...
GEORGE: (To Jerry) Hey, gimme a dollar.
JERRY: (Getting a dollar out) Where’s your money?
GEORGE: (Talking it) I’m here helpin’ you.

Yea in the later seasons George is never broke, just cheap as hell. He has a good run of a few real good jobs so it wouldn't make sense for him to be broke. Still, its kinda weird how at one point he's under the machine digging around for change. You'd think if he was that desperate he'd just pay a dollar.

I always just assumed that George, in his fury, left the dealership on foot, found a nearby store and bought the Twix - but so blinded was he by this slight injustice that actually getting and enjoying the candy he wanted was forgotten in his quest for petty validation.

You think Louie Pasteur and his wife had anything in common? He was in the fields all day with the cows, you know with the milk, examining the milk, delving into milk, consummed with milk. Pasteurization, homogenization.. Meanwhile she was in the kitchen killing cockroaches with a boot on each hand.
