"Jerry Seinfeld and Shoshanna Lonstein Gruss claimed they were "just friends" in the beginning of their relationship and only went public when she turned 18..."

"...Shoshanna is a person, not an age. She is extremely bright. She's funny, sharp, very alert. We just get along. You can hear the click."

And don't forget:

It wasn't that bad.... Oh, yeah, it was that bad.

Yeah I remember first hearing about it after watching Seinfeld (the show) a few years back and thought it must be some overreaction for a bad joke or something, then I heard the recording and well, definitely not an overreaction

Those edgy comedians and their... checks notes wistfully harking back to days when they were able to lynch black people.

“If you don’t like it, cancel me!”

Jerry probably shouldn’t be talking about other people’s ability to make bad decisions.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago

In the declining years of his career perhaps he's combative with everyone on purpose.

"Just cancel me", does he think there's someone somewhere that decides who is unacceptable to the public?

He wants to create a controversy just so his name can be in the news, all publicity is good publicity when you sell spectacle.
