What does Jerry Seinfeld know about being funny anyway? Wasn’t that Larry David’s job?
LOL I feel bad for laughing at that one.
“Look, I was just upset that day because my girlfriend’s parents grounded her”
Jerry seinfeld is one of the least funniest people who ever called themselves a comic.
His show was a cultural phenomenon. You’ve never heard of the least funny comedian. Let’s stop the weird Lemmy contrarianism. It makes us look more insanely out of touch than Jerry Seinfeld. (Which is so well known his name is in my auto-correct).
I absolutely loved Seinfeld (the show) and recently saw his stand up in person and it was absolutely terrible, it was actually pretty shocking. He’s just so incredibly unrelatable now.
I wouldn’t say that’s contrarianism. I’ve heard criticism for Jerry Seinfeld’s comedy since at least 2004, calling out observation comics as a whole was trending at the time of his show even. Larry David made that show great, and some of the cast played their roles really well, Jerry Seinfeld wasn’t one of them for me and seemingly a lot of people.

all of that can be considered contrarianism too. It was easy to shit on observational humor because Seinfeld was the most popular comedy at the time.

the character Jerry was the straight man, so if you only watched the show Jerry (the actor/comedian) had an uphill battle to seem as funny as Kramer, George, Elaine, etc.
He was never funny. Larry David, the guy who wrote the show, was the funny one.
FYI, it was written by both Larry David and Jerry Seinfeld
It wasn’t funny. I never watched the show. I’m not alone in that either.
Nah Jerry was never very funny. It turns out it was all Larry David
I think he had one or two good lines in the show. but the other three carried that shit like their lives depended on it.
Fuck Jerry Seinfeld.
No, thanks.
I never understood why he would say that to begin with. It’s not like his brand of comedy was ever particularly edgy. Obviously the “people are too sensitive these days” thing is stupid, but it felt extra strange coming from him.
People are too sensitive these days though. The problem is that no one agrees what it’s important to be sensitive about while simultaneously looking for reasons to be offended on behalf of others.
Here’s the trick, if you are in a comedy club, its all jokes.
Suck ass loser. Get fucked Seinfeld
Jerry Seinfeld can, as we left leaning partygoers love to say, “get fucked and blow it out his ass”.
Right, cause people learning from their mistakes is such a horrible thing.
Extreme left. Who is this extreme left he’s talking about? People who don’t like being insulted?
What’s the deal with the smallest of marginalized groups? They weren’t important before, why do I have to care about them now? /s
Good on him.
Not looking for approval from a zio
I bet he does. That one didn’t go over so well.
I guess he raised that if you can’t succeed without making racists jokes you’re not a good comedian
