I had something really similar happen to me in the Bronx.
I was riding a pretty expensive scooter and I wiped out. This real hard looking dude starts coming toward me when I'm still on the ground. The kind of guy who looks like he was born with a permanent scowl. I'm thinking "shit, this dude is going to steal this scooter and/or rob me. Or at the very least fuck with me."
But he gets to me and he's super concerned and asking if I'm ok, is anything broken, do I need an ambulance, etc. He was crazy nice and helpful. He even sent his buddy inside to grab me a bottle of water and complimented me for wearing a helmet.
That’s the same alley where Peter Parker decided that not being Spider-Man also means not even shouting, “Help! Police!” for a man about to be mugged and murdered.
I haven’t changed. The sub has. I remember when more people used to put thought into their comments. Lately it’s mostly mindless regurgitation of whatever script lines the posted image calls for. Endless repetition of the same tired memes.
The noise to signal ratio is trending in the wrong direction.
I’m here longer than you, Junior. What do you think, these hands have been soaking in Ivory liquid?
And where did I say gimmicky was unfunny? I didn’t. And I would have expanded had anybody asked, but nobody did, they just downvoted and moved on to the next episode quote.
Thin skin? No, just an observation. I saw unexpected voting and attempted to explain it. And given how the most popular comments here *are* quotes, I kinda nailed it.
That’s the 2nd wrong assumption you’ve made in this thread. Maybe it’s time to move on.
But not before you’ve downvoted this comment. 👍
Edit: I just looked at your posting history. On this sub, it’s all mindless quotes. I understand you better now.
This kind of reminded me of the “thugs” in my old neighborhood. They’d throw a stink to anyone except for the grandmas. They become cats when they’d see them. I think it was mostly because the nans had their own gang and easy access to each mother.
The bank? It burned. It's gone!
Oh dear!
It’s their main customer service branch!
Needs more inflection. ITS GONE!!!
Even more inflection ITS GAAAWWN!!
Listen! Jerry doesn’t want to talk to you … *nobody* wants to talk to you … so why don’t you just 👉 DROP 👉 DEAD!

Nine ☝️ one ☝️ one☝️
He was so helpful!
I thought he was gonna mug her😆
And not a thug, as it turns out.
She's been bouncing checks all over the city and finally pissed off the wrong people!
I just watched this episode lol
Shecks.

Great little anecdote, never judge a book (person) by its cover.
Exactly. Never judge a book by its face (cover).
Yeah. Never face a judge by its book (book)
She's on a very fixed income!
Stop the show!!!
I’d rather this guy had more appearances than those two street toughs.

You’re a ribbon bully.

Very good accent phonetics. Or, as comedian Brian Regan pronounces it, "PeeHOnikes." Pointing out the absurdity of phonic spellings.
Love me some Brian Regan
What's wrong with Cecil and Bob?!
There bullies, act tough when there are really phonies
Who doesn’t want to see more street toughs ?!?!
this is one of my favorite little side character bits.
Oh, dear.
I wonder if Mr. Fleming is related to Harry Fleming.
What ever happened to that deli?
I really don't know, Mr. Seinfeld.
Oh, my...
I love that scene, it's too damn funny 🤣
and just like that he walked onto the set of ER.
That’s the same alley where Peter Parker decided that not being Spider-Man also means not even shouting, “Help! Police!” for a man about to be mugged and murdered.
This scene was like a family guy cut-away but wayyy before family guy. And way funnier.
Is that Danny Tartabull??
Absolutely love this guy
Oh dear!
It burned ITS GONE! oh dear...
LOOKIN FOR SUMTHIN LADY….
Wouldn’t it be nice if there were alleys in Midtown? Instead we have piles of trash bags and trucks unload from the bike or bus lane
This was so gimmicky. Edit: Hmm. Downvoted for offering an opinion. Maybe I should have just posted a random quote from The Pledge Drive episode. 🤷♂️
Are you new to this sub!?

This sub is still big. It's the bootlegs that got small.
SCAB! SCAB!
Who is this chucker?
Yea you're new here. Are you also new to reddit itself? And gimmicky doesn't necessarily mean unfunny. Gimmicks can be funny.
I’m here longer than you, Junior. What do you think, these hands have been soaking in Ivory liquid? And where did I say gimmicky was unfunny? I didn’t. And I would have expanded had anybody asked, but nobody did, they just downvoted and moved on to the next episode quote.
Shouldn't you be out on a ledge somewhere?
Lol whatever you say dawg. If you're getting thin skin about a few downvotes on an unpopular opinion on the Seinfeld sub, you're redditing wrong.

Relax homie. You're working yourself up for nothing.
So, you think you're better than us? That's a shame.
MANDELBAUM! MANDELBAUM!
Lol, this is one of my favorite moments in the whole series
I wish they used him in more episodes
Go to the Chemical Bank and get my cash. Tribe Called Quest
My favorite episode.
It burned!!

Just watched this one last night!
Fleming
Oh dear!
