There is an episode of the show where George is 'topped' by a co-worker who attempts to put him down. George later realizes the *perfect* comeback line but when he tells Jerry the line doesn't sound like much of a put down. He tries for the entire show to find the perfect comeback line but it doesn't work. I don't remember the exact line but it went something like 'Well, the zoo called and their looking for you!". Anyone remember the *actual* line George used?

Well, the jerk store called...they're running out of you!

The guy came back with another zinger to George's perfect one, but I can't remember that one. Remove "nospam" to email

George, in desperation, came back with Kramer's suggestion: "Oh Yeah? Well *I* just had sex with your wife!"

"His wife's in a coma", Riley's boss tells a disbelieving George last seen muttering, "Yeah? Well the life-support machine called and..."

The comeback was "That's ok, cause they have plenty of you!" This might be a little off but it is close.

Okay okay okay, not to get too technical or anything, but the actual line was:

"Well that doesn't matter. You're their best selling item!"

I know I know I know. I really need to get a life. What can I say? Some people have heroin. I have Seinfeld.

Then (no 0ffense) why can't any of you get the right line?:-)

"You Know George ,the ocean called....they're running out of shrimp"

"Oh yeaaahhh...Ron... The Jerk Store called ...they're running out of you.."

(laughs) "What's the difference... you're their all time bestseller!!" (more laughs)

"Yeah!! Well I had sex with your wife..."

I'm not a 100% sure but I believe that the correct line is:

"Well the jerkstore called, they're running out of you"

That's George's comeback to "Hey George, the ocean called, they're running out of shrimp"
