Not a Seinfeld line, but my friends are tired of hearing me say "There's a Seinfeld about that." anytime a slightly unusual situation or story occurs around here.

Same thing here. And since I live in Holland, nobody knows Seinfeld, so that makes it extra annoying for them.

My girlfriend was tired too. I said "was" not because the "tired too" but because of the "My girlfriend".

JERRY: You didn't like my act, so that's it? MARLENE: I can't be with someone if I don't respect what they do. JERRY: You're a cashier!

Not a quote but a funny story, I was at lunch last week with a client and I ordered a Calzone and we both starting making jokes about putting our Jacket in the oven and imitatiing Steinbrenner.

I have many, but I think the one that comes back the more often, is when I'm getting a little too pride of myself, this one pops all the time in my head:

"All right, snap out of it you stupid jerk. You're eating a turkey sandwich. What do you want, a nobel prize?"

It's a long one, but I don't actually have to say it. And I use it against me!

Yeah, it's definitly one of my favorite lines from the whole series.

I've got quite many.

I like using "O Moses smell the roses!" and "Sweet fancy Moses!"

I also like referring certain people to "Mimbos" and then explaining them what that means.

Whenever it's suiting I might say "It's go-time!" That's my favorite.

I'm not sure though if they are all originally Seinfeld phrases.

when kramer is living in jerry's apartment (kenny rogers episode) "this is all, very interesting."

Retro_T_BopTrevor Smithson

I know this is my third answer to this question, but what odds.....

Not a line, but something that Jerry's done once or twice when the phone rings. When he had the dial-phone with the long chord, he'd slam on the speaking end of it wth his right hand and catch it with his left. I did that until my phone broke, though i'm not sure if that's what caused it.

I think you need an old pre-breakup AT&T black and white phone built for 40 year life to do that without fear of breaking it.

And so what if you did break it doing that, it must have been fun trying.

One I just used, in another newsgroup on computer programming was

""Smugness is not a good quality." - Seinfeld TV Series"

That's what I like about alt.tv.seinfeld, the attitude here is just so much better than most newsgroups. Someone asks a question here, you get an answer, not attitude.

"You are sooo good lookin"

It's tough to explain that one to people sometimes...

I also haven't used profanity in years because I've become so accustomed to muttering "Newman!" whenever I'm frustrated or angry.

EastCoastGuyzJoepman973

The scene where Jerry and George are working on the script and they are trying to get themselves started....goes something like...

"Ok, right now. You and me, right now."

I've used that several times when about to start a task.

I have 2, if someone pisses me off i say "Do you wanna take it outside and i'll show you what its like!!" not entirely accurate but the essence is there. Secondly if someone makes me a ludicrous offer i reply with "surely you jest."

I got a laptop a while back and took it to work loaded with tons of Seinfeld and other episodes. Now all you hear around work is a whole load of Seinfeld catchphrases and quotes. One of my co-worker's favorite is "Kung-POW!!" from The Jimmy. "George is getting upset!" is one of my favorites.

Peace, SoulFX
