Jerry Quote #1320
[stand-up:]
Jerry: I think gum is, is one of the weirdest human inventions. It's not a liquid, it's not a solid, it's not a
food. What is it? It isn't really anything, you know. I mean, it's like a stationary bike for your jaw. Like, remember when you were in school, and teachers would get all riled up if they caught you with gum? And when you were a kid, you'd think, "What is the big deal?" But, as an adult, I can understand it, because when you're chewing gum, you don't look like you're too thrilled with anything anyone has to say. "Oh, World War Two. That was an important historical event? Yeah, I'm sure." "They landed a man on the moon in 1969? Yeah, right. Yeah, I buy that, teach."

Quote from Kramer
Kramer: Well, it's the latest offering from the Alex Theater.
Jerry: That stinky old movie-house?
Kramer: Well, you should smell it now. We fixed up the place.
George: With Spartacus?
Kramer: Well, it's a rare archival print. Twelve extra minutes, full wide-screen CinemaScope, and if you come to the one o'clock show, you can hear Jeffrey Harharwood.
Jerry: Jeffrey who?
Kramer: Harharwood, Jerry. He was the assistant wardrobe man on Spartacus. Some fascinating insights into the production.
George: Why would I spend seven dollars to see a movie that I could watch on TV?
Kramer: Well, why go to a fine restaurant, when you can just stick something in the microwave? Why go to the park and fly a kite, when you can just pop a pill?
