Image Credit: Everett CollectionA morning chuckle is always welcome, especially when you’re on a New York City subway car sandwiched between a person who insists on eating their breakfast in transit and a lady whose shower hair is dripping on you. So the Seinfeld posters splattered all over the city’s subways that promote the show’s local syndicated airings and feature memorable (albeit tired) quotes from characters have been a welcomed A.M. “Ha!” But as the Huffington Post pointed out, someone who thinks they do everything better than others has been revising the advertisements with better quotes from the characters.
You can read the full list of vandalized revised posters at HuffPo. The tweaked quotes are not always spot-on [mildly annoyed grumble here], but I appreciate the effort.
Still, I — much like the Unnamed Quoter — think we can do everything better than others. So comment with even better quotes for the gang. Here are the quotes that originally accompanied the posters:
Jerry: “Are you still Master of your Domain?”
Elaine: “Can you spare a square?”
George: “There was shrinkage.”
Kramer: “Giddyup.”
Now, go. Improve!
I’ve always been preferential to “These Pretzels Are Making Me Thirsty!”
Same.
Yes! My son loves pretzels and just doesn’t appreciate it when I say that everytime he asks for pretzels.
Who wouldn’t want a Junior Mint? They’re very refreshing.
Best line. I quote it often, and I have to say, it’s not recognized as often as you’d think.
I said it out loud last weekend, and it took me a minute to figure out why I said it. I wasn’t even eating pretzels at the time.
That is one magic loogie.
One more:
“Rochelle, Rochelle. A young girl’s erotic journey from Milan to Minsk”
George’s change in expression kills us every time!
That one is my favorite as well, and it was just on last night.
What about Elaine: “Some ugly baby, huh?”
Better one from Elaine: “Maybe the dingo ate your baby”
I said that for YEARS!
How about: 1. “hellooo Newman” (too funny every time I hear it), or 2. “I’m not gay, not that there’s anything wrong with that” (Jerry), or 3. “I’m not a lesbian. I hate men, but I’m not a lesbian” (Elaine), or 4. “My father was a quitter, my grandfather was a quitter, I was raised to give up. Its one of the few things I do well” or 5. “serenity now, insanity later”. Ahh how I love Seinfeld (especially funny if you haven’t seen it in awhile tho)
“But I don’t want to be a pirate!”
YES! I say that every time I see a shirt with excessive use of ruffles.
me too!
That quote is just useful! “But I don’t wanna be an [x]” has totally entered my vocabulary.
Me too. My friends and I say it all the time, with many variations on “pirate”. It never gets old.
get OUT!!!!!
spongeworthy
heellllooooo!!!
not that there’s anything wrong with that.
You are soooooo good lookin!
Moops
MOORS!
Mulva?
“It was like a dry heave set to music” George describing Elaine’s dance.
“They’re real and they’re spectacular!”
This did cheer me up today when I had to sit next to a guy singing along to “I Gotta Feeling” which was also being played at full blast on his iPod.
Hello, Newman.
The line that makes me laugh every time is, “No, I mentioned the bisque.”
“I told them you didn’t. And I laughed, and I laughed.”
“The New York…YANKEES!”
“Ruth, Gehrig, DiMaggio, Mantle… Costanza?!”
The Opposite might be my favorite episode of Seinfeld
TWIX! THEY’RE ALL TWIX!
for some reason i say, ‘hey look! free can-day!’ all the time. TWIXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX!!
Haha, lettergirl, I say the same thing anytime I see candy!
Twix is the only candy with the cookie crunch!
