Last night i just happened to catch 'The Revenge' and Jerry made an interesting comment about George' obsession with Toilets. Now this was an early episode, so many of the toilet gags in the series had not been thought of yet. This led me to think that there really are many references to toilets throughout the series, Here are a few i have thought of so far. Are there any more?
George's boss wont let him use his private bathroom (The Revenge) Poppy wont wash his hands after urinating (the pie) Jerry;s Girlfriend cant spare a sqare of toilet paper for elaine. George Urinates in the helath club shower Kramer misses his 'window of opportunity' (The Pilot) George runs out of the toilet to say Vandelay! with no trousers on Jerry drops his girlfriend toothbrush in the toilet George takes a book into the toilet with him. (The bookstore) George is thinking of instituting an open door urination policy (The Finale)
I have 2 more: George thinks that the toilet stalls should go all the way down to the floor at Yankee stadium. George discusses that toilet paper hasnt changed in 50 years.
-George discusses toilet paper with his girlfriend Siena (thus falling in Love) in "The Face Painter"
-Peggy at Peterman's uses a paper seat protector when using the same toilet as Elaine in "The apology"
-George sits on the "throne" without his shirt on in "The Gymnast".
-Jerry fakes having to go.. in "The phone Message" so he and G. can switch tapes.
-Kramer and Newman take a polaroid of the "Sniffing Accountant" on the john.
-Lets not forget Georges fondness for manure in both "The Soup" and "The Cadillac".
-Jerry gets arrested for urinating in "The Parking Garage".
-George does not go in a toilet during his trip to India in "The Betrayal".
-a toilet almost becomes a deathtrap for George in "The Airport" when he opens the door and the very same dangerous convict he has insulted grabs him.
-Goerge does not follow Whilhem in the washroom and misses his assigment in "the Bottle deposit."
-George inherits the handicap bathroom in "The Voice" and spends a good deal of the episode in Jerry's toilet from possible food poisoning at Play Now.
-Also in "The Voice" Jerry throws away a perfectly good belt on account that it banged against the side of an urinal.
-Jerry strongly objects to Kramer having Newman using his bathroom in "The Chicken Roaster" at which point (and perfectly timed) Newman steps out of there.
-Jerry,George and Kramer assume other identities in order to relieve themselves while faking an interest in leasing an expensive appartment in "The Puerto Rican Day"
All I can think of for now. They're not so much as jokes as situations revolving around that perticular setting.
Mo.
" She got a little Marisa Tomei thing going on there..." "Too bad you got a little George Costenza thing going there.."
Also, in "The Airport" Elaine has to go while on the airplane, but can't get out of her seat because she's blocked in by the guy sitting in the aisle seat. She debates whether to risk damage to her kidneys or just climb over the guy. She finally climbs over him and has to wait in line at the lavatory. When the guy in the lavatory comes out, she is overcome by the smell but forces herself to go in anyway.
In "The Puerto Rican Day", Kramer, posing as Pennypacker, pretends to be interested in a flat so that he can use the bathroom. Later in the same episode, George, as Art Vandelay, wants to see a bathroom in the same flat.

In the episode where Uncle Leo is shoplifting at the bookstore George takes a book into the bathroom and they make him buy it. When he tries to return it the next day to a different clerk he finds that the book has been "red flagged".
In the episode where George uses a picture of Man Hands to get into the forbiden city, George met the receptionist while he and Jerry were showing Kramer the BEST bathroom downtown.
Also, the episode where George gets pulled into the bathroom by the serial killer on the plane after he buys the last magazine that the serial killer wanted, while Kramer is trying to collect his loan from his old roommate.
what about the one where Jerry gor freaked out because George took his shirt off in the bathroom? Just our of curiosity, is there anywhere you can get information of life after Seinfeld for the other actors?
