"He took it out" -- one of my favourite Seinfeld scenes ever.

DaveLFC · « **Reply #41 on:** February 13, 2007, 09:13:18 am »

I love Seinfeld. One of my favourite scenes is when you see a day in the life of Kramer in Jerry's apartment. It's absolutely brilliant stuff.

Kramer's going to a fantasy camp? His whole life is a fantasy camp! Never work, fall ass-backward into money, and have meaningless sex with a load of women. People should pay to live like him for a week!

Kramer (breaking up with his girlfriend): "I must've been out of my mind! Look at you. Why don't you do something with your life? You sit around here all day. You contribute nothing to society. You're just taking up space. How could I be with someone like you? I wouldn't respect myself."

Kramerica Industries always cracks me up, when Kramer has his own intern and they fill the rubber ball with oil and hurl it off a building.

George : Why did it all turn out like this for me? I had so much promise. I was personable, I was bright. Oh, maybe not academically speaking, but ... I was perceptive. I always know when someone's uncomfortable at a party. It became very clear to me sitting out there today, that every decision I've ever made, in my entire life, has been wrong. My life is the opposite of everything I want it to be. Every instinct I have, in every of life, be it something to wear, something to eat ... It's all been wrong.

Why do they call it Ovaltine? The jars round. The cups round. They should have called it Roundtine. This is gold, Jerry, gold!

Jerry: No one would yadda yadda sex!
Elaine: I have.
Jerry: What??
Elaine: I met a lawyer, we went out to dinner and I had the lobster bisque. Yadda-yadda-yadda, never saw him again.
Jerry: But you yadda-yadda'd the best part!
Elaine: No, I mentioned the Bisque...

KRAMER: Look at you.
GEORGE: Aw, Kramer, don't start...
KRAMER: You're wasting your life.
GEORGE: I am not! What you call wasting, I call living! I'm living my life!
KRAMER: O.K., like what? No, tell me! Do you have a job?
GEORGE: No.
KRAMER: You got money?
GEORGE: No.
KRAMER: Do you have a woman?
GEORGE: No.
KRAMER: Do you have any prospects?
GEORGE: No.
KRAMER: You got anything on the horizon?
GEORGE: Uh...no.
KRAMER: Do you have any action at all?
GEORGE: No.
KRAMER: Do you have any conceivable reason for even getting up in the morning?
GEORGE: I like to get the Daily News!

That episode is gold. In George's interview at the Yankees:

Interviewer: Why don't you tell me about some of your previous job experiences?

George: My last job was in publishing ... I got fired for having sex in my office with the cleaning woman.

Then, he meets the president of the club:

Mr. Steinbrenner : Nice to meet you.

George : Well, I wish I could say the same, but I must say, with all due respect, I find it very hard to see the logic behind some of the moves you have made with this fine organization. In the past twenty years you have caused myself, and the city of New York, a good deal of distress, as we have watched you take our beloved Yankees and reduced them to a laughing stock, all for the glorification of your massive ego!

Mr. Steinbrenner : Hire this man!

What kind of man are you? Well, you're weak, a man of temptation. But what tempts you? You're a portly fellow, long in the waist band. But is it the salty snacks you crave? No, no, no...yours is a sweet tooth. Oh, you may stray, but you'll always return to your dark master - the cocoa bean!

At Monk's.

Gwen: I'm sorry George.

George: I don't understand things were going so great. What happened? Something must have happened.

Gwen: It's not you, it's me.

George: You're giving me the "it's not you, it's me" routine? I invented "it's not you, it's me". Nobody tells me it's them not me, if it's anybody it's me.

Gwen: All right, George, it's you.

George: You're *damn* right it's me.

Gwen: I was just trying to...

George: I know what you were trying to do. Nobody does it better than me.

Gwen: I'm sure you do it very well.

George: Yes well unfortunately you'll never get the chance to find out.

I always loved the Peterman catalogue descriptions too:

"It's a hot night. The mind races. You think about your knife, the only friend who hasn't betrayed you, the only friend who won't be dead by sunup. Sleep tight, mates, in your quilted chambray nightshirts."

"The Rogue's Wallet. That's where he kept his card, his dirty little secret. Short, devious, balding. His name was Costanza. He killed my mother."

Lt. Bookman-Let me tell you something, funny boy... You know that little stamp? The one that says New York Public Library? Well, that may not mean anything to you, but that means a lot to me. One whole helluva lot. Sure, go ahead, laugh if you want to. I've seen your type before -- flashy, making the scene, flaunting convention. Yeah, I know what you're thinking... Why's this guy making such a big stink about old library books? Let me give you a hint, junior. Maybe we can live without libraries, people like you and me.... Maybe. Sure, we're too old to change the world. What about that kid, sitting down, opening a book right now in a branch of the local library and finding pictures of pee-pees and wee-wees in The Cat in the Hat and The Five Chinese Brothers. Doesn't he deserve better? Look, if you think this is about overdue fines and missing books, you'd better think again. This is about that kid's right to read a book without getting his mind warped. Or maybe that turns you on, Seinfeld... Maybe that's how you get your kicks... You and your goodtime buddies... I've got a flash for you, joy boy. Partytime is over."

( Jerry writes out a check for the never-returned Tropic of Cancer and hands it to Bookman)

JERRY: Anyway, I hope there's no hard feelings.
BOOKMAN: Hard feelings? What do you know about hard feelings? Y'ever have a man die in your arms? Y'ever kill somebody?
JERRY: What is your problem?
BOOKMAN: What's my problem? Punks like you, that's my problem. And you better not screw up again Seinfeld, because if you do, I'll be all over you like a pitbull on a poodle.

“No, 8 years isn’t such a long streak.”
“It isn’t?”
“No, I haven’t vomited in 13 years.”
“Get out!”
“Not since June 29th, 1980.”
“You remember the date?”
“Yes, because my previous vomit was also June 29th—1972. That’s why during the ’80 vomit I was yelling to George, ‘Can you believe it? I’m vomiting on June 29th again!’”
