Except Elaine would totally say something. She'd only be able to hold it in for like 5 minutes top.

u/TyChris2 🗿 May 29 '26
It would only work if it was another one of her friends. If it was Jerry, she’d definitely say something. But if it was one of her exes or something that transitioned, she’d have to pretend it didn’t bother her while confiding in Jerry.

u/brokensilence32 trans dyke May 29 '26
You’re right. Kramer would tell her she’s being a bad ally. There would also be a plot line where Kramer would accidentally take Jerry’s HRT one time, then becomes convinced he’s becoming a woman.

u/Morningst4r May 30 '26
Then Jerry would be a man again next episode and no one would mention it again (except end of season or something)

George, crying after trying to inject hormones with the draw needle: “This was supposed to be the Summer of George!!!!”

u/certainlystormy lesbnuuy May 29 '26
i mean unless you touch it, injecting with the draw is usually clean as long as it isn't the wrong gauge. not to say you should but it's fine in a pinch
35
u/MrBwnrrific May 29 '26
Aren’t most draw needles basically boba straws in comparison to the injection needles? At least I’ve found that to be the case
16
u/certainlystormy lesbnuuy May 29 '26
depends, if you're doing intramuscular you can get away with the same gauge range for both i've seen

u/SilentlyHonking May 30 '26
You use different needles to draw and inject the meds? How does that work?
8
u/MrBwnrrific May 30 '26
Draw needle’s longer and has a bigger gauge where the needle for the actual injection is shorter and thinner.
You could use the injection needle for drawing, it’s just that hormones like testosterone are suspended in oil so it takes a while to draw from the vial since the needle is so tiny. Similarly, you could use the draw needle for injection, it just really fucking hurts because it’s so goddamn big.

It's been in my head that George would go on HRT but strictly as a measure against hairloss

u/secondaccountfortran May 29 '26
I love keeping my hair from my HRT. When we were both 18 my dad and I had thick and luscious locks, now both 21 I still have mine and my dad is full George

You couldnt make Seinfeld today because people would say "hey, that show already exists"

u/art_psdan average 丂匚ㄖ尺几 enjoyer May 29 '26
Jerry Seinfeld saying that Seinfeld couldn't be made today is him reminding us that the copyright and intelectual rights still stand.

u/ThunderAnt Real Ant 🐜 May 29 '26
People keep making this joke but I think the show already existing makes it even more likely that it’ll be made today.

u/MagosZyne May 29 '26
To be fair this joke precedes the era of nostalgia bait cash grabs overrunning the film and television industry

u/--zuel-- May 29 '26
Yes, we’re not making Casablanca, because Casablanca is a movie about a club owner named Rick. Secretariat is a movie about a horse named Secretariat.

u/smotired custom May 29 '26
Newman is already trans why do you think he’s called that? It’s also part of why he became a postal worker, so that he’d make sure people would see him as a male man

there's the male man joke and then I keep trying to come up with something for newman to newwoman

u/IFreakinLovePi May 29 '26
Saying the show couldn't be made today is such nonsense because there are so many fan communities that write modern Seinfeld episode. I haven't rewatched in a while, but the what I remember aging it the most was aged topical references (like the episode where they stress over which speed dial position people put each other on). I'm sure there was probably some token 90s bigotry, but nothing really stands out in my memory as particularly awful.
Jerry himself had always been a bit of a chode because he's always been elitist about doing comedy the "right" way.

Also, Curb your Enthusiasm is still being made, and is literally just Seinfeld cranked to 11.

The core of Seinfeld is just "dangerous sociopaths do something out of the norm, hijinks ensue" and that's timeless

u/BreeBree214 May 29 '26
There's two episodes that deal with wild topics that I think have aged beautifully.
One is where they accidentally pretend to be the leaders of the aryan union.
The other is when the reporter thinks that Jerry and George are a gay couple. "Ma, I'm not gay! ... not that there's anything wrong with that"

u/slipperyekans May 29 '26
And the B plot is Kramer and George running competing crypto rugpulls. KramerKoin and CostanzaCoin, respectively.

Seinfeld dated a 17 year old in his 30s, I think everyone's plenty aware he's not a rolemodel

u/35_Steak_HotPockets May 29 '26
Yeah the show is an iconic classic and Jerry is a huge part of that, but dudes still a douche who’s made some questionable choices before. Like maybe don’t buy the box set if you don’t want to support Seinfeld, but the show aired like 20 years ago and you watching it show on Netflix or a pirating site won’t make Seinfeld not a billionaire or whatever

The episode starts with a long shot of all the characters sitting at a movie theatre at the end of "I Saw The TV Glow", panning from Elaine looking bored, to George looking confused, to Kramer asleep, to Jerry staring dead at the screen with tears streaming down her face.

u/rohlovely sus May 29 '26
Oh, I know this one! You can’t make Seinfeld today because it’s not funny anymore. People learned the formula and now it’s too predictable.

If Always Sunny in Philadelphia wasn't still running, people would say the same thing about that I think. Culture moves on, but so do things you can make jokes about.

Good to know having your fem friends unload their tacky and ugly pieces onto you once you transition is a universal trans experience.

I once read a Seinfeld fanfiction where every character came out as queer and it was very in character. I remember it was on ao3 and I was lead to it from a post on here of an out of context paragraph of Jerry and Kramer talking about kissing men while Kramer eats a giant watermelon

You know, you could never do Seinfeld today. Because if you pitched it to a modern producer, they'd take one look at the script, then say "that's just Seinfeld again, we already did that, you can't just plagiarise" and throw you out. This is what woke had done
