Fans share their favorite funny lines from the show, particularly appreciating George's comedic moments and discussing how Kramer's delivery adds to his humor more than the lines themselves.

Here's something! This is inspired by another thread about funny lines. In the past two minutes, I've thought of two--both by George:

"...for I am Costanza, Lord of the Idiots." "The sea was angry that day, my friends... like an old man returning soup in a deli..."

Can anyone think of anything funny that Kramer said-- besides "Giddyup"?

"Don't look at me--I'm hideous." Jerry to Kramer, "I didn't know you had a hopper." Kramer--" Oh, yes, Jerry, I have a hopper--(turns around for a second, smiling--"a big (emphasis on "big") hopper." Much of Kramer's lines when rewriting them doesn't come across as funny as we remember them because it's his delivery that has the most comedic impact. alt showbiz gossip

How 'bout when Kramer is castigating the nefarious fruit from his local fruit shop and then goes on to juxtapose the local mart with mainstream supermarkets. When he says the lines which end with "...and I don't know what's going on with the papayas...", it always cracks me up.

Stuff from the Bris concerning the Pigman, or the episode where Kramer is saving the pinky toe. That is one of my favourite scenes, I think. "The people were ringing the bell!"

You mean just phrases rather than dialog? A good one is in _The Millenium_ where Kramer enters a pseudo-Mayan clothing store and announces himself as being a wealthy entrepreneur. He takes a chip, dips it, and says "Mmmmm, Machu Picchu!". I found it funny because *he* thinks its a witty thing to say when in fact he's fooling no one (btw, Machu Picchu is an ancient Inca city in Peru; it has nothing to do with the Mayans).

Also, when helping out in Scrabble and Kramer proposes "quone" as a word -- "you know, when you quone someone". I think he knows quite well he's just trying to get away with something.
