![]() When her favorite form of birth control is discontinued, Elaine manages to score a case of them – but decides to use them judiciously. Despite empathizing with his situation, we can’t stop laughing at his desperation to escape his fate, and it’s all perfectly encapsulated in this one sentence. When Jerry finds himself in that situation and as a result is coerced into wearing an ugly puffy shirt – on The Today Show, no less – his whiny and almost infantile response says it all. ![]() We’ve all been in the situation where we just can’t make out what someone is saying but we don’t want to ask them to repeat it yet again, so we play along despite having no idea what is happening. Perhaps it’s the catchy, rhyming nature of it all or Jerry Stiller’s outstanding, crazy-sounding delivery but whatever it is, we know that hearing this quote always brings a smile to our faces. The result is a new holiday and a classic Seinfeld line to boot. When Frank Costanza realized he was raining blows down upon another man over a doll he was trying to buy his son for Christmas, he realizes there has to be another way. We don’t think any of that well deserved praise would have been possible had this line not become a virtual catchphrase. Netting Larry David his only solo Emmy for writing, this particular episode was also chosen by TV Guide as the greatest TV episode of all time. But we all knew what they were talking about. The core of one of the most groundbreaking episodes of any show ever, this perfectly crafted line ensured the foursome never had to actually say the word “masturbation” in an episode that centers on the concept. #8: “But are you still master of your domain?” Coming in the final seconds of the first part of this two-parter season 3 episode – with George’s pants firmly around his ankles –Kramer answers the phone and unintentionally destroys his friend’s ruse, setting the scene for this laugh-out-loud line courtesy of Jerry. Like many of the lines on this list, it’s the circumstances surrounding this line that make it all the more legendary. When George is cornered by his unemployment officer, he invents a position he was attempting to get at a made-up company with Jerry’s phone number. #9: “And you want to be my latex salesman” The especially overwrought version uttered by George will always stay with us, making this a phrase we never fail to utter whenever we’re eating something salty. A line made all the more memorable by the fact that Kramer not only repeats it multiple times, but also tries to get the entire crew to chime in as well. When Kramer’s unique charisma manages to gain the attention of famed director Woody Allen, he’s given a line in one of his movies – and he is going to get everything he can out of it. ![]() #10: “These pretzels are making me thirsty” Welcome to, and today we’re counting down our picks for the top 10 Seinfeld quotes.įor this list, we’ve chosen the best and most memorable lines from the history of the show “Seinfeld.” We’ve decided to leave off less commonly quoted lines, as well as concepts that may or may not have originated on the show and which have found a place in our collective consciousness but may not be used in everyday life.
