Hey!

In his defense I dated a. 17 year old high school girl once.

I was also 17.

I was so worried as a stupid kid that I was a pervert because I was attracted to girls my age. No, it just turns out I'm attracted to people my age.

[โ€“] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 26 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Me too!

And I still wonder when did 50 year old women get so hot?

[โ€“] tetris11@feddit.uk 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

When they look at you with practiced scorn, and you find that hot

[โ€“] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

It's like you know me!

it's authority that comes with age, the leather, riding crop dฬถoฬถnฬถ'ฬถtฬถ hurt either.

When I was younger, I once convinced a friend of mine that he, a sixteen year old, could be arrested for sex with a minor if he slept with one of his classmates and the cops found out. I still crack up over his bugged out eyes.

This is something that has actually happened to multiple children though.

[โ€“] cardboardboxfort@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Don't you know you're suppose to wait till your 35 to date a 17 year old

When you're a star, they let you do it

[โ€“] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I fucked that up. Thanks for the feedback!

[โ€“] cardboardboxfort@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Give it the old Jerry Seinfeld second try, remember you're never too old to date a 17 year old!

[โ€“] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

In my mid 20s I was dating a woman who's kid was 17 (which is the age she had them). I genuinely can't imagine how a 35 year old wants to date someone that young.

I did as well when I was 19 and she was 17. I also picked her up at school many times.

The principle even high fived me!. (I made up that last part)

[โ€“] peaceful_world_view@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I've dated 15yr olds, 16yr olds, 17yr olds, I was also the same age or 1yr older. I did date a 20yr old when I was 26, honestly that did feel a little strange.

Jerry Seinfeld doesnโ€™t respect Palestine or the age of consent.

[โ€“] insanemantis@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

Fun fact: a lot of people who don't respect one don't respect the other

Cue incidental music

Bop bop pow pow

Cut to commercial break

"I don't know how it happened, but Woody Allen invited me out to lunch!"

"Woody Allen? Soon-Yi's father?"

"We met in the school pick-up line!"

Diabolical work

This guy is such a piece of shit.

[โ€“] Tiger@sh.itjust.works 22 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Really disappointed but that jackass over the years, I shouldnโ€™t have been surprised but loved that show in its contemporary years.

[โ€“] NOPper@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Honestly he was the least funny character in that show though.

[โ€“] mortn@lemmy.ml 14 points 1 week ago

Yes, that was the character - to be the straight shooter amongst weirdos and the less eccentric character. The show is hilarious and really well done. If you don't like then just don't watch. With that said, I find the real life wrong doings of Seinfeld and Richards are unforgivable.

jason, and the others were way better actor. he just sets up the Joke for the episode thats about it.

How was this idiot ever popular? The show sucked, his "comedy" sucked, and he as a person sucks. His stand up was so bad that his style is now the stereotypical bad comic in tv and movie tropes.

[โ€“] robear@lemmy.zip 47 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Seinfeld was legitimately the worst thing about Seinfeld.

It was popular because it had Larry David writing, and Michael Richards, Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Jason Alexander were actually good comedic actors.

[โ€“] matelt@feddit.uk 14 points 1 week ago

Do not forget the legendary Wayne Knight!

[โ€“] owenfromcanada@lemmy.ca 17 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It was an okay show at the time. Same with his comedy. Neither were the best, but both industries have come a long way in the last 30 years.

Full agree that he sucks as a person, though.

[โ€“] blargh513@sh.itjust.works 17 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That always puzzled me. His whole character was of an ordinary guy, but he's such a massive toolshed.

He openly hates anyone who would be described as a fan, he has so much money and he's just a massive douchenozzle. How much more do you have to have to be happy and or a little bit kind?

Marty Short isn't a prick, just remember that.

[โ€“] owenfromcanada@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 week ago

Money and fame do weird shit to your brain. A handful of people have managed to have money and not be a miserable jackass, but it seems to be the minority.

its only because david, jason alexender and julia made the show "Watchable" i never got feeling he was funny. jason played a convincing alien in voyager, and a criminal minds role too.

Good time slot. Decent writing. Good on screen talent (for the most part) surrounding Seinfeld which often helped to fill out the stories. Think of all the guest appearances over the years, lots of quality actors who all grew into their characters.

What's the deal with Age of Consent Laws!?

Also, what was with that episode where a child perused Elaine? https://seinfeld.fandom.com/wiki/Adam_Lippman

[โ€“] cardboardboxfort@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

And its all about the kids bar mitzvah, which in reality does sometimes involve hiring a woman to bang the 13 year old kid to make him a man. What's more disturbing is in some cases people allegedly use girls (below the age of consent) to do this.

[โ€“] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

That episode was weird because it didn't exactly portray that stuff as sane, despite having Jewish writers, including Seinfeld right around that time. I don't know much about Larry David's politics and beliefs, but it could have been him taking a swipe at Jerry and other weird Jews. It wouldn't be the first time I've seen a Jewish writer criticize their own community.

He was a man. The Rabbi said so.

NO! The zionist that likes trump, is awful to people and is a baby fucker? Gtfo

What were their favorite things to talk about?

I am betting "How was your day?" was not one of them.

[โ€“] boaratio@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

In his defense, they bonded over their shared love of algebra.
