are we discussing 'subject' as Dasein is in-the-world or as Dasein is our field of discussion? anonymous March 1 2006, 05:26:57 UTC
you know, a good way to stop drinking is to center your daily routine around the watching of Seinfeld. In the city, Seinfeld plays four times a day, @ 6 & 6:30 on TBS, @ 7:30 on Fox, and @ 11 on Fox (except tuesdays when TBS plays a few more episodes at like 10 or so). What you do is get home from whatever commercial dealings occured in the day and think "I have X hours and X minutes until the first Seinfeld, and just go along on your way doing things with a constant eye to how much time remains before the next Seinfeld and where you will find an available television set. The episode was on today where George's boss (Mr. Thomasulo from the Play Now corporation) goes through an extensive series of battles with George to pursuade George to quit. You see George had been hired while Mr. Thomasulo was under the impression that George had a leg problem requiring him to walk with a cane, but when George continued to pretend as much and was found out, Mr. Thomasulo tried to get George to back out of his contract. It was a good one. At one point, George had to enter his boarded-up office through a ventilation shaft. Here is a good moment from the episode:

DARREN (Kramer's intern): Mr. Seinfeld and Mr. Costanza debated whether Ironman wore some sort of undergarment between his skin and his iron suit.
GEORGE: I still say he's naked under there!
JERRY: Oh that makes a lot of sense!

funny enough, the rest of this entry ties in with the episode in which George starts a fake charity. If thats not a sign, I dont know what is.

KRUGER: George, we have a problem. There's a memo, here, from accounting telling me there's no such thing as the Human Fund.

GEORGE: Well, there could be.

KRUGER: But there isn't.

GEORGE: Well, I - I could, Uh, I could give the money back. Here.

KRUGER: George, I don't get it. If there's no Human Fund, those donation cards were fake. You better have a damn good reason why you gave me a fake Christmas gift.

GEORGE: Well, sir, I - I gave out the fake card, because, um, I don't really celebrate Christmas. I, um, I celebrate Festivus.
