@@namleist So you've never dipped a slice of pizza ever? Every school I've ever attended,each student on pizza day would dip their slices with ranch,BBQ sauce or hot sauce.
In my experience calzones are easier to mess up. Sometimes the bread to filling ratio is off or the bread is overcooked. Most bad pizza is still OK. If it's between a great slice and a great calzone I'll pick calzones every day.
Essential flavor component of browned crusty cheese is missing on a calzone, and as others have said, double the carbs. The solution, NYC already knows, you take a big slice and you fold it. No fuss, no mess, complete flavor profile. Badda bing bby
The funniest part isn’t even shown. George recommends the bathroom stalls go all the way to the floor and Steinbrenner says “What, are you outta your mind? People would suffocate”.
The tie in of Kramer drying his clothes before wearing them, therefore having tons of change, rainy weather canceling Newman's mail route, rain/change/pizza oven, smells like a calzone. Incredible writing.
Michael Richards really was the king of physical comedy. Bar none. His movements were so deliberate and he was consistent with it every second he’s on screen.
Steinbrenner just straight up takes a chunk out of George's calzone, no hesitation! Well, it is a sign of trust... at least it's no double dipping or eating out of the tras... the "hovering" trash. Like an angel.
Why not just drop the tip in the jar and move along? Why should I leave it on the counter? Just say to the person, "u were fantastic. You deserve this." Drop the money in the jar. Move along with your life
I always found it funny how the Steinbrenner actor shifts around in his chair while Larry David's saying, "Excellent, excellent little calzone you got there, Costanza!"

What's hilarious about so many of these interactions on Seinfeld, is that if George, Elaine, or Jerry could simply be honest and sincere and explain the situation, it wouldn't turn into such a mess 🤣 Instead they always flee, then come up with some convoluted scheme to get around it 🤣 (Example, here: George could have stood his ground and said, "Wait. Please. I swear on my mother's life I wasn't stealing your tip. The last two times I've thrown in a tip you didn't see, and it made me feel weird. It's selfish and stupid but I was just pulling out my dollar to wait for you to come back and see me put it in." -- Guarantee problem solved hahaha)
Newman drives me nuts in this one....like I get not working on the rain. (Well I get that he doesn't) but still go get George his food. You blew getting a free lunch for a long time because you wouldn't go once! Lol
Okay, while I'm not going to put my clothes in dryer before wearing stuff, i have been wrapping my socks in a hot pack and after a few minutes I've got piping hot socks to soothe my aching feet. Really does keep those muscles loosey goosey.

@@Janexcalibur Yeah, like kicking the dirt off his shoes on his counter as a sign of disrespect. It feels like a "cultured" insult if that makes sense. Kramer came off rather worldly in that exchange.
“Big Stein wants and eggplant calzone! He must have one!” Literally me anytime anyone mentions any kind of food.
Kramer bringing up how Newman called out sick cause its raining is amazing continuity
I wish that scene at Newman's about the rain and "I never believed in creeds" was included here. Funny dialogue exchange there.
The actual impressive eater egg in this one is when Elaine and Todd can't get tickets to "Means to an End," they have to see "Blame it on the Rain" instead.
nothing more satisfying that looking down after lunch and seeing just the table, lmao that always cracks me up
I never really paid attention to that line until today. Lol.
It s in the Top 5 of my favorite line of this show.

Love Larry David's acting in this role. I didn't even know it was him for the longest time--freaking hilarious!
It's not him, just his voice.
Never put the tip in the bucket, leave on counter, tap the counter 3 times and say "for you, thank you".... never put in a bucket.
Kick the counter 5 times and gently say "for you".
Why not just drop the tip in the jar and move along? Why should I leave it on the counter? Just say to the person, "u were fantastic. You deserve this." Drop the money in the jar. Move along with your life
Gently whisper in the servers ear "here's a tip, get a real job."

How about the Soup Nazi and Steinbrenner?
"I never cared for you Costanza.."
BUT I’M PAYING YOU!
George concept of tipping is accurate. That's why I gave the tip in their hand so that they know you are tipping them.
I know what you mean. I like this show because it really raises things which can really cause you to be slightly anguished.
I'm quite literally the opposite.
Being the opposite of George tends to be a good thing
Funny it's Larry's voice talking to his character. Genius
‘Not bills’ for the blind is a seriously under appreciated joke from the audience
a few were slowly getting it haha
I never get tired of watching this honestly
my favorite calzone spot went bankrupt during the pandemic. I think about that more than I should.
I never forget when George trapped under the desk with Steinbrenner in the room 😂😂
I have actually slept under my desk just like Georgie boy. Honestly it was inspired by him.
"Your clothes smell like just like Pizanos. What happened?"
"Yeah, he overcooked it. It's ruined!" 🤣🤣
This episode is like top 5 favorite Seinfeld episodes of all time for me. I literally can't eat a calzone without thinking about this episode lol.
The Kennys Rooster Chicken episode is my personal favorite.
Imagine being able to win over your boss and become the number 2 person at work ,based purely on your lunch choices?😅 What a world.
It’s not crazy at all.
