"Seinfeld" finale includes "ER" crossover, paper reveals

By John Littleton

BOSTON (Reuters) - The series finale of "Seinfeld" will involve a crossover with with the fourth season "ER" finale, the Boston Herald claims in an article it will run on its front page Thursday.

Although the plot for the much anticipated final episode of "Seinfeld" has been a closely guarded secret, the Boston Herald broke the news today that the finale would revolve around a carjacking court case involving the show's four main characters.

The Boston Herald now reports that their source has revealed that the final episode of "Seinfeld" will also crossover with the season finale of "ER". The source is said to reveal that the final moments of "Seinfeld" will involve a hilarious freak accident for one of the characters and that the opening segment of "ER" will include a brief cameo of the same character being transported to the hospital to receive specialized treatment.

The source did not reveal the name of the character but did add that, in all frankness, pasta would somehow be involved.

NBC spokesman Mike Nelson refused to comment on the report, but did add, "I can't spend the rest of my life coming into this stinking office to pore over the excruciating minutiae of every single daily event."

"idiot"?

"infiltrate"?

"really pushed a button"?

Imagine, allowing such trivial things to have such a deep, emotional impact, unraveling the very fabric of your existence and provoking you to a fit of anger and hostility.

It's people like you who make it all worthwhile, Tirya.

What I find hilarious is how some people can allow "nothing" to disrupt their entire lives and provoke them to anger and name-calling.

Gee, that's an awful lot of hostility over "nothing".

And you call me an idiot.

[email] pontificated:

No. You did, however, clearly demonstrate that you become disoriented and unbalanced when confronted with "a post about nothing".

Oh, I think your intentions were on a much more personal level. But I'll elaborate on that below.

Ahh . . . but trolls come in many forms, as I know you are well aware.

You have trolls who post in an effort to anger others and provoke hostility.

You have trolls who post in an effort to amuse others and offer them perhaps a smile or even a giggle.

And then you have trolls who post in an effort to realize some sense of self-worth. These trolls are truly pathetic because they are posting out of their personal frustration and loneliness. They have a poor self-image, lead lives of quiet desperation, and really just don't like themselves very much. They are terribly afraid that others will realize just how shallow and empty they truly are. They launch what they hope others will think are blistering attacks on an evil invader, when in actuality, their messages are hateful, mean-spirited, self-serving diatribes made only in an effort to make themselves appear important and useful. They feel terribly, terribly ugly, yet they always feel the need to call attention to themselves. Much like a child who doesn't want to share his sandbox, it gnaws at him to see others enjoy themselves, and it terrifies him to think he may be left out when he sees the other children at play. They often resort to name-calling as a first line of offense, and almost always try to make themselves appear as a "champion" or "defender". If they are rebuked, they cry louder and intensify their attack.

But, as you've clearly demonstrated Tirya, you are all too familiar with this type of troll, aren't you? You wear it so well.

Yeah, God knows that diverting their attention for a moment from such insightful, intellectually stimulating posts such as "Did Carter shag Anna" might have profound negative impacts upon the rest of their lives.

Oh, golly-gee . . . I'm sure Jerry's feelings will be hurt.
