KRAMER: Come on, think about it Jerry! Jet fuel burns at fifteen hundred degrees fahrenheit. There's no way that's hot enough to melt steel beams!

JERRY: I don't know Kramer.

KRAMER: *interrupts with hand gesture* Ahhhhh!

Meanwhile at Monk's Diner.

GEORGE: You know what I heard? That the Bush family are in cahoots with the Saudi's.

Kramer: JERRY! JERRY! I just saw something really strange. Like X-Files spooky.

Jerry: What. What was it?

Kramer: So I wandered into a coffee shop, called Central Perk.

Jerry: I'm stealing that.

Kramer: And there was six 30 something people sitting there, 3 guys 3 girls.

Jerry: So, three couples enjoying themselves.

Kramer: No Jerry, you don't understand. They were just one group, sitting there and complaining about everything.

Jerry: In New York? Get out of here!

Kramer: No, wait. One would say something, something normal and unfunny. And then it would happen.

Jerry: What?

Kramer: Laughter. The most forced laughter you ever heard in your life.

Kramer falls in love with Jerry's girlfriend, so he kills her and rapes her body and then slices her face off to wear over his own face, thus protecting his tribe from spirits.

Jerry, a famous and wildly successful comedian, spends every single waking moment breakfast lunch and dinner hanging out with:

-his bald chubby unpleasant childhood friend
-a weird gangly annoying unemployed guy who lives across the hall
-a woman he dated briefly who physically assaults him, but only her not any of the other women he dates and tosses aside
-a mailman. He not only knows his mailman, they socialize and interact and are somehow "enemies" despite coming from different social strata

Jerry spends his 7 (8? more?) figure income on meals at a grubby corner deli and lives in the same two room apt for a decade

Jerry wasn't wildly successful nor rich on the show. Nor was he rich IRL when the show started, I suspect.

You're very wrong on both. Jerry was a very successful comedian before the show, and pulled in like 60k a week.

ya he was up at the top at a time when stand up comedy was super popular and comedy clubs were opening everywhere like starbuckses

there was such a market for stand up comedy in the 80s/90s we had guys like andrew dice clay and carrot top playing to packed houses every day and releasing smash hit concert tapes

ive been to plenty of those, it was all a rage to "choose your own toppings" for everything from burgers to pizza. like not just order it, but stand there and point and watch as the person spread the topping out

sometimes i just want a sammich and i dont got the time to walk the guy at subway through it step by step. just make it look like the picture and lemme alone

It's doing fine, actually.
He's been on Curb a couple of times since the... unpleasantness.

He also did an episode for Seinfeld's Comedians in Cars thing where he wore a wig and dark glasses. I mean, he could've been doing a bit, but he seemed genuinely afraid to be seen in public.
