Jerry Quote #766
Quote from Jerry in The Puffy Shirt
[stand-up:]
Jerry: There's no way that moving in with your parents is a sign that your life is right on track. There is no way you could fake this, even. "Yeah, things are great. I met a terrific girl, I got a great job, I'm making a lot of money, and if everything goes according to plan, I'm gonna be moving back in with my parents soon." It's like getting busted on a parole violation and thrown back into the slammer. "In the opinion of the board, you need further rehabilitation I'm afraid." And you go back into that little room of yours, you feel so huge. It's like you could take your bed and just crush it in your hands. You can hold your parents between your fingers going, "Why was I so afraid of you people when I was growing up?"

Quote from Jerry
Bryant Gumbel: Look, I'm sorry, it is just a very unusual shirt. It could be, kind of, a whole new look for you. You could put a patch over an eye. You could be the pirate comedian.
Jerry: Yeah.
Bryant Gumbel: Will you wear the puffy shirt at the..?
Jerry: Look, it's not my shirt.
Bryant Gumbel: Whose shirt is it?
Jerry: What's the difference? I agreed to wear it. It's a puffy shirt. I feel ridiculous in it. I think it's the stupidest shirt I've ever seen, to be perfectly honest with you.
Leslie: [o.s., loudly] You bastard!
Bryant Gumbel: Did you hear that?
Jerry: That I heard.
