I have been wondering about the existence of George's Move. In episode 101 (The Fusilli Jerry), George is very happy when Jerry tells him "The Move" because George claims to not have one. However, in the end of the episode, He is mad at Puddy because he stole his move.

Maybe George was so ashamed of his move, he lied to Jerry in order to get Jerry to tell him HIS move. "I'm rubbing two sticks together, you're walking around with a Zippo!". It is later revealed that George's move was not very effective. Personally, I liked Frank's 'stop short' move. ------------------------------------------ [email] (Hammer nail here--> <-- for a new monitor.)

My understanding of this was that George's "move" was simply the move he got from Jerry, with the different ending. And then Puddy stole George's (stolen from Jerry and modified) move.

Or am I totally off the wall?

No, George's move was different from Jerry's. George's move was more like Puddy's before Puddy stole Jerry's move. Puddy's move was like "a big production that goes nowhere" (not an exact quote from Elaine), George then asked if there was a knuckle involved. When Elaine said yes, George said "I think that's my move." Jerry's move was not a "big production", and there was no knuckle mentioned. Puddy had used Jerry's move (albeit with the pinch at the end instead of the counterclockwise swirl) until Jerry asked him to stop, then Puddy switched to the move that, when Elaine explained it to George, sounded like George's own move.

If I type any more, I'm only going to start confusing myself, so I'm done. [email] (Hammer nail here--> <-- for a new monitor.)

L! (but not OL, I'm at work). Very sharp, Bob. Thanks for the laugh. :)

But seriously, did I explain the moves correctly? Was my post easy enough to understand? I may put this in the FAQ. [email] (Hammer nail here--> <-- for a new monitor.)

I'm still confused as to whether the move is a reference to oral sex.

But Frank's `stop short' didn't work! "We don't do that in Korea. Take me home I never want to see you again!"
