Question

Fans discuss the context of the "hopped up on" catchphrase, debating whether it was Kramer or Jerry who said it and whether it referred to coffee, sugar, or cinnamon swirls in relation to Java Stop.

You almost have it. To be exact, it was "all HOPPED UP on cinammon swirls! . . ."

Incidentally this is one of my favorite Kramer lines and I have made a .wav file of it. If anyone wants me to e-mail them a copy, just let me know.

Close but you don't have it exactly right. I just watched a tape of this and he says "You were all hopped up on cinnamon swirls! They wouldn't even serve you anymore!" ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I believe it was Jerry to Kramer when Kramer settled with Java Stop <?> for all the cafe lattes he wanted. Kramer had just downed three or four and ran into Jerry and George on the street right outside. Jerry says that Kramer is all hopped up on caffeine. -Ed

It was the episode where George is buying new glasses and Kramer said that if George goes to his friend's optical store he'll get a discount. When the man didn't give George the discount Kramer went in there wielding a chocolate bar and saying that the guy owed him because he (Kramer) was the one who got him off sugar - "When I found you you were all hopped up on ...." - I can't remember the exact quote.

That part of the phrase was, "You were all hopped up on cinnamon swirls! You wouldn't have any teeth left if it weren't for me taking you down to Joe's fruit stand and stuffing canteloup down your throat!..." (close enough) Of course, that whole scene was vintage Kramer! :)
