Right now on TBS, the "...not that there's anything wrong with that" episode is on. I know that's kind of become a Huddle slogan, just thought I'd point it out in case anyone was interested.

Wow. I was a Seinfeld watcher to a point, but honestly, I didn't know that phrase was from Seinfeld. It's become such a common phrase in our lexicon - both on The Huddle and in general - that I thought it just developed from ... who knows where. Awesome! :D

Yeah it's from the episode where the reporter things that George and Jerry are gay. They keep saying, "we're not gay, not that anything wrong with that".

Kind of gives you some insight on the effect of tv on our everyday lives. And...Seinfeld is where "yada, yada, yada" came from as well.

Yeah now that I think about it, I totally remember that.

For sure. My point exactly! :D

 

Oh, and I surely remember the "yadda yadda yadda" one. Hilarious!

There's an abundance of phrases that came from Seinfeld, it was a great show.

 

Double-dipping, Shrinkage, Re-gifting, No soup for you, Close-talker...there are many others.

Well, "double-dipping" was a pretty well-known phrase before Seinfeld, and to some degree, "shrinkage", but Seinfeld CERTAINLY made these - and others you mentioned and that have been discussed here - a hugh part of the mainstream American lexicon.

"But i had a reservation."

 

 

to the telemarketer: "i'm a little busy right now, how about i take your number and call you at home tonight."

 

 

no... no common saying in those scenes, but darn funny.

We ran out of cars.

 

But the reservation hold's the car.

 

I know what a reservation does.

 

I don't think you do. Anybody can just take a reservation, it's the holding that's the most important part.

 

Edit: Now Squeegie is pissing me off :D

I love that one.

 

"I understand what a reservation is."

 

"I don't think that you do.  If you did, I'd have a car."

 

:D
