Fans discuss the meaning of Kramer crying on a bus in The Mom & Pop Store, debating whether it references Midnight Cowboy or other films, with some finding the ending confusing or ridiculous.
That was the episode where George buys John Voigt's (sp?) car. He assumed that the salesman meant Jon Voigt the ACTOR. He spells his name J-O-N. The guy who owned the car was a dentist who spelled his name J-O-H-N.
The actor is most famous for his role in Midnight Cowboy (1969). The bus ride is from a scene in the movie.

Not so dumb really. George thought that the JON VOIGHT
who previosly owned the car he bought was the actor.
Jon Vouight starred in Midnight Cowboy and the scene
in the bus was a scene from the movie.

I don't remember the episode but doesn't Jerry quote "The Elephant Man"? He says, "I am not an animal!". Did this happen in an episode or am I dazed and confused?? Someone help me out.
The Pick jerry gets caught picking his nose. (not really, it looked like he was.) Before tht line, he paraphrases The Merchant of Venice: "If we pick, do we not bleed??"
Of course, JFK (Keith Hernandez) and MIDNIGHT COWBOY (John Voight's car).
Was "Prognosis Negative" a real movie or a made-up one like "Chunnel" and "Rochelle, Rochelle" and "Firestorm" (a tape of "R,R" was stolen from Jerry's stinky car and George wanted to go to "F" with Jerry but Susan wanted to go to a "chick film" (what was its name?) so Jerry went with Mario Joyner from MTV & "Hangin' with the Homeboys.")
I'm sure of "Chunnel" and fairly certain of "Rochelle, Rochelle," but was I right in calling that other movie "Firestorm"? George and Susan's father started to discuss it, but George's father hadn't seen it yet and wanted to 'watch it fresh.' (THE RYE BREAD)
You are quite correct (and therefore not dazed and confused!!)
Jerry quotes the line from The Elephant Man - "I am not an animal...." to a crowd of people when he is standing next to the elevator after the Calvin Klein model leaves in the elevator. It WAS from the episode - The Pick.... Glad to help (Although I didn't really do anything!)
