    I've been reminding people for what feels like a decade now that Jerry dated a 16 or 17 year old publicly. He admitted to it, so it's not even alleged. He was in his 30s btw.

    He also publicly defended the "Kramer" actor following his insanely racist outburst during a standup show.

    He's always been a bit of an unlikeable asshole. His Seinfeld (the show) character isn't far off from his actual persona.

      My friend sent me a clip from a show Seinfeld created called "Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee" and I couldn't believe it was a real show lol. The whole premise is he picks up his celebrity friends in different exotic/rare cars and goes to a diner to get coffee while talking about random bullshit. The clip I was sent featured Eddie Murphy kissing his ass so much like just going on and on about how funny he is and what a great creative mind he has, the camera kept cutting back to his face and he had this smug look like he was just enjoying every second of it. He created the whole show just so his friends could verbally jack him off on screen. There's like 10+ seasons of this dumb shit

        I used to watch that show when I had insomnia years ago. It was on crackle or something back then so I could watch it on my phone. It worked like 90% of the time in a few minutes my brain was stabbing itself to death from boredom. (This isn't a joke)

      "Stop laughing, it isn't funny" is the funniest thing he's ever said

      Jerry Seinfeld appearing on Letterman to be like “it’s bad, but he’s apologizing” is wild, like, where are any black voices in this convo? Why is it all 50+ yr old white guys discussing this? I assume it would be too controversial and confrontational for suburban white audiences for a black person to weigh in, unless of course it’s about how they don’t vote for Trump. Libs love to tokenize people
