Every Occasion in Life as Explained by the Jerry Seinfeld Show

ok - so every situation that happens in your life has been parodyed on the Jerry Seinfeld show. For example, one of my most favorite classic scenes is the "reservation" scene where Jerry is at a car rental place and in an attempt to claim his vehicle has the following conversation with the girl at the counter: (episode 28, "The Alternate Side")

Rental car agent: Next please.

Elaine: Well, go, go.

Agent: Can I help you? Name please?

Jerry: Seinfeld. I made a reservation for a mid-size, and she's a small. I'mkidding around, of course.

Agent: Okay, let's see here.

Jerry: Sixty-six years old?

Elaine: Yeah, well, he's in perfect health. He works out, he's vibrant. You'dreally like him.

Jerry: Why do people always say that? I hate everyone, why would I like him?

Elaine: What do you think, would you go out with a sixty-six year old woman?

Jerry: Well, I'll tell you, she would have to be really vibrant. So vibrant,she'd be spinning.

Agent: I'm sorry, we have no mid-size available at the moment.

Jerry: I don't understand, I made a reservation, do you have my reservation?

Agent: Yes, we do, unfortunately we ran out of cars.

Jerry: But the reservation keeps the car here. That's why you have thereservation.

Agent: I know why we have reservations.

Jerry: I don't think you do. If you did, I'd have a car. See, you know how totake the reservation, you just don't know how to *hold* the reservation andthat's really the most important part of the reservation, the holding. Anybodycan just take them.

Agent: Let me, uh, speak with my supervisor.

The agent goes into an office with a window in the door so she can be seenspeaking with someone.

Jerry: Uh, here we go. The supervisor. You know what she's saying over there?

Elaine: What?

Jerry: Hey Marge, you see those two people over there? They think I'm talkingto you, so you pretend like you're talking to me, okay now you start talking.

Elaine: Oh, you mean like this? So it looks like I'm saying something but I'mnot really saying anything at all?

Jerry: Now you say something else and they won't yell at me 'cause they thoughtI was checking with you.

Elaine: Okay, that's it. I think that's enough, see you later.

The agent returns.

Agent: I'm sorry, my supervisor says there's nothing we can do.

Jerry: Yeah, it looked as if you were in a real conversation over there.

Agent: But we do have a compact if you would like that.

Jerry: Fine.

Agent: Alright. We have a blue Ford Escort for you Mr. Seinfeld. Would youlike insurance?

Jerry: Yeah, you better give me the insurance, because I am gonna beat the hell out of this car.

The reason i bring this up is because i made an appointment with my trainer at the gym for 6 am this morning and SHE DIDN'T FREAKING SHOW UP! For the appointments we had earlier in the week she was 5 minutes late for those. Man. This is a business transaction. I am PAYING for this person's time. She had damn well not do this again or I am going to get another trainer.

I just read my "contract" and I might have to fight "the man" a little harder than expected to get out my contract with this girl. Geeze! It's just rude and bad for business. You make an appointment with someone - you should be there! Especially when that appointment is at 6 am in the freaking morning.

I've gotta call the gym manager later today. The contract says that as a "client" if I don't provide at least 12 hours notice before cancelling a session then I get docked that session. Well.... does it work both ways? If my trainer doesn't show up do i get a free session?? doubt it, but i'm going to try....
