Seinfeld: Bathroom Stalls
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 окт 2024
- George and Susan discuss bathroom stalls, where George realizes him and Susan have nothing in common. George then discusses the issue with Jerry, who completely understands the issue at hand. From the episode "The Postponement," from the Season 7 DVD's
"The subject should resolve itself based on its own momentum." great line.
It should resolve of its own volition.
@@Fortaz107 Momentum, same thing
... Which is why, among other things, this was the greatest comedy show ever.
High intellect applied to a low topic (literally)- Gold Jerry, Gold!
My philosophy in conversation to a t.
This right here is the essence of this show.
+jevicci Yes, exactly! I just wanted to say something like this but you said it. Good jokes, funny, great characters.
Yes, exactly. It's a very good demonstration of what Jerry and George are like.
eat my shorts
jevicci
And as George will discover, this is why he should marry...Jerry.
"Hey, she looks just like Jerry. It's uncanny! Are you telling me you don't see that?!?"
The essence of Larry David.
“See now that I don’t care for.” Always makes me laugh 😂😂
Jerry's delivery of the line was perfect.
Find a friend who supports your insanity like Jerry does for George 😂
Oh it's the best line ever!
George should've just married that girl that was exactly like Seinfeld. He would've lived a happy life.
I'm talking about the woman who was actually just like Seinfeld. I think her name was Jenny. Seinfeld dated her.
@@SharkAcademy That girl would never be into George lol
Exposing his man love for a she-Jerry? Its getting dark!
@@OfficialAnarchyz NONE of the women on this show would date George, but they can't show ugly ones (except for the one who looked like Jerry).
@@SharkAcademy Actually George dated her. But he got grossed out when he realized it.
The rare double snort.
That takes skill
I love the way Jerry plays along with George in all seriousness, even though he knows George is completely neurotic.
He himself is a psychopath.
But George's complaints aren't that different from Jerry's routine. It keeps him thinking about funny stuff like that so he can generate material.
Even a neurotic person can bring up topics interesting to you. Just consider the ideas and not the person.
Jerry is just trolling. Like when he said that Jon Voight probably misspelled his name in car documents. Jerry liked to see George upset over some ridicilous detail, over nothing .
Neurotic but right
I like how supportive Jerry is of George here.
Yes, so do I.
Yeah. George is right. He is just making a bigger deal out of this than necessary. But he has a point.😆
Reaching the floor is one thing, but what really makes me nervous is that you can see thru the cracks on either side of the door ...
i saw your crack through the crack
Susan said it best. Its a backup system😆
Even better is direct eye contact through that crack.
@@davidjozwik7382 hahaahahahah i'll say hello
We could add a roll down curtain that covers the cracks. Of course, that still leaves the top completely open.
This was so well written.
herbie747 the whole damn series was SO WELL WRITTEN!!!!
@@damiansuarez9671 99.9% of the series....the finale was pretty disappointing in a lot of ways.
Jonathan Turbide i think it was “pure Seinfeld humor”
I think it's fantastic, I think it's a fantastic scene.
Yeah and it made Jerry worth $500 million dollars
I love how george’s thoughts imply he has a passionate interest in toilets
With the amount of plot points revolving around George and toilets, I think he or at least Larry David who George is based upon does.
This comment actually made me double snort. Just the wording is perfecto
His obsession eventually pays... he creates the e-toilet!
can we change the subject?
@@chrise5011 Based upon some of the content in Curb... yes, I think it is safe to say Larry is very particular about using the toilet.
It's obvious that this scene was written by Larry David. He is exactly like that in CYE. LOL
Larry David IS George lol
I love Jewish humor.
I recommend that everyone rewatch Seinfeld through George's eyes after watching all of Curb Your Enthusiasm.
@@diegomorales8616 cool concept. Both amazing shows.
@@robertsvorinich890 by extension, would you say you're a fan of the jews? Or that you really like jews? So much so, that perhaps you believe they are superior to others? Would you go so far as to say you're a jewish supremacist? Do you believe the jews should have dominion over all other races? That we should all be subservient to the jews? :P
Can't write a better script than the stuff that Seinfeld has. So genius.
Larry David
“We don’t even share the same interests” always gets me
"interests" after discussing bathroom stalls
George makes a very good point.
Imagine marrying a woman who doesnt give a shit about your thoughts and doesnt want to discuss things you find interesting.
Just shuts it down right away.
1:56 the execution of that short volume increase in the middle of the word "exactly" is a work of art. George is speaking at an agitated volume, in the middle of the word he's basically shouting, but at the end of the word the volume is somewhat less than at the beginning, so as to compensate the loud burst in the middle. George is expressing his outrage fully, without making the listener feel like they're being shouted at.
1:35 Jerry imitating Larry David it’s actually gold
Or Steinbrener lol
If stalls went all the way the way to the floor how could you share a square?
If you had a square to spare.
Because the side panels don’t go to the floor. It’s the doors that George was talking about
@@mikeg1378 You ruin it. There is an episode about sharing a square
@@MohammedAlmotawa wrong my cousin, I know full well the Elaine episode not sharing a square. And if she did, it woulda been thru the side panel, dummy. George is talking about the doors. I’m combining 2 episodes.
Think man, think.
You are good my friend.
@@mikeg1378 It’s implied that the walls also go all the way to the floor. The issue is privacy.
It's really a show about everything.
I was thinking the same thing!
Perfect line delivery from both guys. This is part of the genius of this show, all four actors deliver their lines flawlessly. Extremely impressive!!
Exactly why george should be engaged to jerry instead
Not that there's anything wrong with that.
Well, I have a theory that George is a extremelly closeted gay man.
There are lots of references in the series pointing it.
+Sasha Mackenzie yes he became obsesses about it,and in the end she ended up with gum in her hair so she cut it short and had the exact hairstyle as Jerry and George left her
George should find himself a Lady Jerry.
Naw. Jerry finds men repugnant. Besides the most perfect girl he's ever been with (who was basically himself) ended with a mutual breakup.
Everytime I am in a bathroom cubicle and someone walks by I feel like I am in a horror movie hiding from the killer. I duck down and hold the door lmao
I wonder who came up with this exposing idea of bathroom doors and why!
@@Rafayel06 It is really strange. I read somewhere they leave the doors open that way so it is easier to clean the stalls and also for emergency persons to get to the person in the stall. I don't know if any of that is true or not.
I feel you fam. I always feel like I'm being watched through the tiny ass gap in between the door and the frame. Not to mention they always seem to place the stalls right in front of the mirrors so there's angles you can't see, but others can see you from those angles because of the gap. Crafted, designed, and formulated purely to make us uncomfortable 😂
@@HunterBidensLaptop7550 Lmao! I didn't think about the mirrors. Now I have another fear! Lol.
@@HunterBidensLaptop7550
ugh...
You should be punched in the gut for saying "fam".
The way they play off each other’s words is the best
This is what separates our best friends from everyone else, with them we can yap about nonsense all day and be the happiest people on earth.
At 1:37 Jerry is channeling Larry David
I thought he was imitating Trump haha
No, Jerry was attempting a to sound Latin. Larry David is from Brooklyn, and that wasn't a Brooklyn accent. It was much more like Billy Crystal parodying Fernando Lamas ruclips.net/video/ygs-4GfqPcM/видео.html
@@mobus1603 it definitely sounds like Larry David when he says the same thing a bunch of times in curb
@@Deleralia: yeah, I watch Curb all the time, and I know what you're talking about with the repeating, but that wasn't what Jerry was doing here. He was attempting a Latin accent like Billy Crystal saying "You look marvelous, absolutely marvelous" with his Fernando Lamas impersonation: ruclips.net/video/9NdcinOjbPI/видео.html
he's channeling Jackie Mason
OH, IT'S GOT MOMENTUM, BABY! IT'S GOT MOMENTUM UP THE YIN-YANG!
I read it in George's voice.
@@okplld ☝️
Korean bathroom stalls go almost all the way to the floor. George would be in heaven lol. American stalls with their huge spaces i feel so exposed it's like only half a door
I wish they did come all the way down to the floor. George Steinbrenner said "It'll be like a gas chamber in there." Lol!!
And the stall walls too.
I have a theory on why the bathroom stall doors don't reach the floor. My guess is that if we were to have full stall doors then the public restroom would no longer feel "Public" anymore, having the luxury of a full door one could do so much more than use the restroom, it could become a meeting place, you could hold meetings, talk on the phone without the uneasy feeling of someone hearing you. The need to rush would now be absent which means more time could be spent in the bathroom stall.
+TheGentleman Nice!
+TheGentleman The deep state engineered them that way. I think you are onto something mysteriousgentleman.
+3mjay Health and you are the moron
+TheGentleman Can we change the subject, please?
why would they want to do that to us?
Jerry's soul mate is...Jerry. "And I say this as someone with a staunch history of heterosexuality."
I salute you on your morality.
Fancy places like hotels and museum bathrooms tend to have bathroom stalls that extend all the way to the floor. Everywhere else they tend to have the shorter doors because it makes it easier for people say at fast food restaurants and park bathrooms to mop the floor more frequently than checking the toilets I assume lol
^this. Just lol at all the convoluted reasoning in this comment section, it's just to make it easier to clean people. The floor has a pitch that angles towards a central drain, with elevated doors on the stalls you can just hose the whole thing down and it will flow towards the drain. Simple as that.
George is the best lol he speaks for all mankind lmao
You must have some serious fuckin talent to make a show out of this. This was about fuckin nothin. How did they make it last 9 years?
George’s snort is everything 😂
Haha 0:24 is so true. George actually brings up this idea to Steinbrenner in "The Calzone."
One of the best (Best) episodes , it just has a momentum
Its so hard to use public urinals. I feel like everybody is watching and it takes forever to go.
what helps me is to think of a beautiful woman bathing under a waterfall.
lol It work tho. :)
What about the real old urinals? Instead of multiple, individual urinals, these things were one big round urinal, about 3 feet wide. About six people using it at once, everybody facing each other, absolutely no privacy.
So you're a stall man?
In ancient Rome, it was even worse; launderers used the ammonia in human urine to wash clothes in. This ammonia was supplied by a large jug placed outside every launderer's shop, where any passing Roman feeling "the urge" was welcome to stop, pull up his toga, and let loose in front of a whole street full of busy people.
Mad Hatter
how the hell can ammonia be surprised?
I've been in a public bathroom that had the stall doors go down to the floor. It was at a rest stop in the middle of nowhere but it was the most fancy bathroom ever. Really weird and great at the same time lol
I would prefer them not going down to the floor. I think they will better be cleaned even with a sloppy janitor.
Totally agree with George here. Taking a shit is the most private, vulnerable act you can take and there you are exposed to anyone else in the room. The rooms should be closed and shut off.
just classic conversations
momentum volition... same thing!!!
"Momentum same thing" caught me off guard LL
Toliets were the subject. We don't even have the same intrests. Haha
I was working one time in a very luxurious hotel. When I went to the bathroom it looked like a bathroom from the future. Music, great toilets... and the doors went all the way to the floor. In fact every stall had doors and walls so thick no one could hear a thing. I actually is a fantastic idea.
I don't care about the spacing at the bottom. No normal person puts their head down there and you need to look low to really see much. You can even exchange toilet paper this way like seen in a different episode of Seinfeld. The side slits of the stalls are a horrible problem though. People can see everything you do through those holes.
A show about nothing that covers everything. Even bathroom stalls.
I love learning english (I'm norwegian) from Seinfeld. Like the momentum/volition-synonyms. Whenever I hear either word, I immediately think of this episode.
George is the best character
That extended bathroom stall door idea is a real winner. It should be the Western standard of public restroom stall design, made into a permanent feature written into the building code
Change the subject? Toilets were the subject. Lmao!!!!
Man, I feel like a thesis can be written on this scene. So brilliant.
Jerry making fun of Larry David? 1:36
Pablo Matres sounded like him lol
He's doing the line from Scarface with Al Pacino (do you people watch movies anymore?).
The stalls don’t come down all the way so that pets and kids can freely crawl in and out while you are doing your job.
God I love this show
FWIW Toilet stall doors don't reach the floor because it is easier to mop the stalls that way.
I’ve heard that the doors are like that Incase someone has something like a heart attack or an overdose EMTs can crawl under the stall to help you and not need to break the lock
Correct! When someone OD’s in a public toilet or requires medical attention, the doors are designed to allow enough space for the average sized person to slide underneath and unlock the door to revive the patient.
But what about those one man restrooms that seem to be gaining popularity? Although, they are very private, it sucks, if you really have to go and the person inside is taking his time!
Medic here. We just kick it open.
@@MedicBerni I love the energy this thread has now lol like a sorta wholesome little fact tidbit then you pop in and jsut go “we kick it open.”
I forgot about this episode. Last week I was in a public restroom and I thought the exact same thing, no damn privacy.
internetuser hence the public part ;)
Loved Susan!❤😁
George should have lied to Marissa Tomei and said he ended a bad engagement that day, then broke up with Susan LOL
Technically it would be the truth.
For Victim Complexes and their ilk, George Costanza's birth this was essentially A.D. 1.
It just goes to show it actually is not arbitrary who you become friends with. There needs to be a certain agreement on things as a default
Well for one thing George, Susan is eating. Maybe, just maybe, that’s why she didn’t want to talk about toilets.
Same thing with me. I am seriously disgusted and think it is inappropiate.
George is absolutely right about bathroom stalls. Also why is there a weird crack in each stall door people can see through?
The stalls in taiwan were all enclosed. No idea why we don't do it.
@@starcrafter13terran Because of peasantry. It is easier to clean a cubicle by swiping the mop through the huge crack than open the door every time to enter the toilet cubicle and clean it.
To set the record straight the reason the doors do not reach the floor is to aid cleaning of floors by janitorial staff. With the doors off the ground it allows unfettered access with a mop.
That second scene with Jerry and George on the same page is probably my favorite single scene in the entire series - it’s just brilliant dialogue of two friends seeing eye to eye on an obscure subject
I can watch this for hours and hours
And i’m gonna
Well well. This is writing folks. That's why this show is the best sitcom ever made in the US
Susan used to be a sophisticated and intelligent character until George got hold of her!
Good fucking point George
First time i visited New York i used the public toilets in one of The Twin Towers & i was shocked that the door didnt reach the floor. I felt like everyone could see me sat on the loo. Is this still a thing in America?
As long as I don't get inadvertently involved in a Larry Craig toe tap incident, as long as the latch on the door stays in place, I don't care.
"I'm engaged to this woman? She doesn't even like me!"
Public bathrooms are attractions to homeless etc... if the stalls reach the floor
legend has it, he's still rubbing his forehead to this very day
Sometimes I feel Jerry has an ulterior motive of agreeing with George!!
to sit back and enjoy the show of george spinning out of control. I used to ride share with some guys when I worked construction and if the ride was particularly boring I'd fire up this one guy by bringing up a subject I knew he was neurotic about lol. One other guy that I knew really well would always be in the back seat and I'd see him in the rear view mirror trying to keep his laughter in.....
Ponds Field channel should also show this part from this episode of Seinfeld so we know what it looks like on VHS as well.
This is peak comedy
The reason they dont go all the way down is because it's easier to clean that way. Then you can just shower the whole floor with water and there are no cramped spaces the mop or whatever you use to make water go away cant fit into.
Exactly.
What if they put drains in every stall and used a sprinkler system to clean the bathrooms?
Olodus I thought it was for ventilation. Seeing as there are multiple butts in the bathroom at a time.
Keyboard Warrior Some bathrooms in larger cities have a sanitation feature similar to that
What is wrong with you people?!? You've all successfully killed the comedy.
George doesn't give a fuck what the reason is -- he's asking rhetorically. All he knows is that he wants the fucking door to go all the way to the floor -- he wants his privacy!
This ia gold Jerry! Gold!
Heir and Jerry would make a great unbreakable couple
The reason the doors are not all the way down is because the drain is in the middle of the room. If a toilet floods the water has a way to drain. Also it is easier for the janitor to mop the floors this way.
Right there with ya George!
I miss this show
I dint think it had any " momentum "
As for me, I would rather look underneath the walls/stall door or peek through the cracks to check for shoes/legs than try and intrude on someone elses privacy
you need that gap for air to flow ..believe me doors to the floor will reduce ventilation and you really don't wanto to smell s.it from others
She doesn't need to talk about toilets because it affects her perception of her boyfriend. It's tough for women, because they are the sexual selectors, and they can choose another man so easily. They are always fighting to keep their boyfriend at the top of their list. ...if he falls, she has difficult choices to make.
For men, we're just saps who fall in love. It's simple. Sad. Write a blues song about it now.
or they were just eating on a table that is why she didn't want to talk about toilets ?
My dad has been retired over a decade and don’t know or would drop names, but he told my dad that he had his bathroom remodeled to have two toilets next to each other so him and his wife could hold hands and poop together, my dad said he tried to be supportive and not vomit, but it wa difficult. Lol
I don't mind the door doesn't go all the way down to the floor. I just don't like the wide ass gaps on both sides of the door. And some stalls are right across the sinks where the mirrors are, you can see the people's face on the mirror. That means they can see you too.
Buc-ee's restrooms in Texas have listened to George and have built the perfect public restrooms. Stalls and doors to the floor, and plenty of them, so you can usually have a buffer between you and any others. George would feel right at home in Texas, that bastard!
Makes them perfect for gay hookups
Its in case someone has a medical emergency and falls to the ground someone can see them
At mosques, each toilet is in its own little room, I think George would agree this should be the system everywhere!
drServitis Please Remove This Comment! Its offending my Religion!!
Thanks in Advance!
+Mubeen Imran (JuStHAtReD77) then don't read it. who cares if you're offended. keep it to yourself and go watch more vids.
Harrison William Thorburn yes, they are in their own room but the seperating wall and door doesn't reach the ceiling so one window can ventilate all the toilets. i think doors in public restrooms are made that way not reaching the floor not because of knowing if someone is in but making them stay dry off the floor. when someone cleans the toilet floor you have to pour a lot of water and chemicals you can wipe the water off the floor but the door would absorb some water, in time that absorbed water would get dirty and bacteria and/or even fungi might form. even no microorganism forms, the door would still be in bad shape and would constantly smell. especially if the door is made of wooden material it would decompose every 1-2years or so. some designers try to avoid this issue by designing the lower part of the door coated with a metal if you have to make the door reach to the floor. metal coating helps it stay dry and eases cleaning. also you can't make a mosque toilet door not reaching the floor because those toilets make you having to crouch while taking care of your metabolical waste. if someone attempts to peek he/she would probably see all you have to offer, so the doors must reach the floor no matter the cost or maintenance problems. also the comment is offensive ironically, please remove it. no one is commenting about church restroom doors or other religious institution restroom doors. please respect our right to be offended about anything and remove your comment so you do not offend us.
Yeah...but don't Muslims wash the shit out of their assholes with their hands and a bottle of water?
JerrytheBaum what do you do smear it all over your ass with paper ?
Disturbs me too George. I hate that they don't go all the way to the floor either or up high enough where someone can look in when I am taking a shit.
Change the subject your having a meal,,,and you want talk about toilets WTF 🤣😂🤣😂
You have a point!
Imagine George and Susan being in a lockdown(2020) together.
Toilet doors are designed like that for easy cleaning. It's a public toilet which requires frequent cleaning.
Too bad most public toilets aren't cleaned so frequently
it's annoying when the bathroom linoleum is buffed to a high sheen, and then everyone entering the bathroom can see an offensive reflection off the floor of the person in the stall. Granted, it's not a mirror so it's not 100% clear, but still offensive.
I gotta say, I believe in letting a subject run its neutral course as well. I may shift to something else as a tangent, but then I must return to the former topic to properly finish it.
Public restrooms with full-length doors do exist - I've used them. Not as common, but you'll see them in nicer stores like Nordstrom, Whole Foods, etc. It does feel a bit more private, but it really doesn't make THAT much difference, unless we're talking about the really skimpy ones that look like the doors on a saloon. I think one reason why they don't use the full-length doors in alot of places is to prevent homeless individuals from camping out in there.
I have no problem with the door not going all the way to the floor. The biggest problem is the wide ass gap between the door and the hinges/bolt.
i think george is gay for jerry. not that there is anything wrong with that
I have more of a problem with the cracks in the doors being too wide. There should be no space for some pervert to peak in through.
The space is there in case of a medical emergency and the paramedics can crawl in to unlock the door instead of breaking the door down which may further injure the person inside. It’s also a better ventilation.
