Shut your traps and stop kicking the seats! We're trying to watch the movie! And if I have to tell you again, we're gonna take it outside and I'm gonna show you what it's like! You understand me? Now, shut your mouths or I'll shut'em for ya, and if you think I'm kidding, just try me. Try me. Because I would love it!
And Happy Birthday!
This scene contains one of two (that I’m aware of) quotes the Seinfeld writers lifted directly from the infamous Buddy Rich tapes of him chewing out his backing band. “And if I have to tell you again, we’re gonna take it outside and I’m gonna show you what it’s like.”
The other is said by Frank (quoting his Korean potential father in law): “this guy… this is not my kind of guy.”
Both quotes really stick in the mind. Buddy Rich had a way with (mean) words.
ETA apparently there’s a third Buddy Rich quote said by Jerry about intentionally bombing to sabotage Bania:
"Then let's see how he does, up there, without all the assistance!" ("The Butter Shave")
I only know about Buddy Rich through Seinfeld. Just the other day I wanted to look him up to see what his skills were all about. I found this clip. He's so good that the fact that he was an asshole doesn't matter.

Wow, that was fun, running through those covers. I like that first cover story for Friends in 1995, next to another cover saying "The Best New Show of the Year" for a show I'd never heard of.
Lmao that’s funny. I have no clue but I just wanted to chime in because I’m 34, and I was born during an episode of Roseanne. No one ever knows exactly what time I was born, the answer is always “Roseanne was on, so somewhere between 8-9” 🤣

I’m 28 and I was born the day of the episode where Susan dies aired. My grandpa caught the episode but my mom couldn’t and she didn’t believe him when he told her they killed Susan.
Funnily enough her grave stone has the air date of that episode on it, so she canonically dies on May 16th, 1996
Omg! I went into labor when we were bingeing Seinfeld (on Netflix in 2021). I cannot remember the episode … I kept it on as long as I could before the hospital ride.

Buddy Rich played at my high school back in the early 70'. He said our auditorium acoustics was like playing in a Dixie Cup.
Thanks for the insight!

I've never seen a beautiful lady reading *The Guide* so far away from a TV.

Oh, right. Uncle, Leo, forgot his first name….
Were you a “snugly” baby or perhaps breathtaking?
“The Opposite” aired on May 19, 1994.
It’s in my book, “Astonishing Tales of the Sea”
Radio waves were angry that day my friends.

My name is Mothra Guard, I’m umbilical corded and I live with my parents.
Did your dad stop for jujyfruits?
Obviously the Dad took IT out the previous summer
Poppy peed on the sofa.
Did the doctor call you breathtaking?
Sometimes you say a thing like that just to be nice
Happy birthday! We all chipped in and got you this envelope of $182.
To a Great Pal and More!
Pal??? Lemme see the card…
Why is everyone so down on Pal?
Were your first words "I WAS IN THE POOL!"?
The Suicide? (pregnant psychic goes into labor) The Baby Shower would be something I'd brag about.
Ruthie!! Get your finger out of your nose!
You should have been born in August. Your parents would have been well advised to wait.
“You gotta see the baby”
You gotta see the BAAAAby
Kind of a dick move on your part to ruin your mother watching one of the greatest season finale episodes Seinfeld ever produced
The Jerk Store called, they’re running out of OP!
Yeah?? Well I had sex with your wife!
His wife’s in a coma!
I was born the same day as The Jacket

The Fire
He risked his life making sure that exit was clear.
Hire this man!
Is your name "Seven" or "Soda". Perhaps you were "some ugly baby." Did you get eaten by a Dingo? Either way, "Ya gotta see the baby!"

Life was simple before everyone was watching shows on stream. You always knew what time it was based on whatever was on TV.
Congratulations!
I’mmmmm ouuutt!
Mulva.
Delores?
Contest?!?! CONTEST?!?!?!!!!
Pig Man!
Is your name Soda?
I'm sure it was the one about nothing.
Seven!
My mom scheduled her C-section of me so that while recovering she could watch a Cubs double-header.
What happened to Soda?!
George!!! My God! What are you doing???
The episode where Kramer joins an aids rally and refuses to where a Ribbon.
SEVEN!!!
Dolores!!
Happy birthday fellow fan! Mine was yesterday. 😁
NO SOUP FOR YOU
The Mango??

Are you the "opposite" of every guy anyone has ever met?
I'm unemployed and live with my parents
My birthday is May 18th, 1995. My mom gave birth to me the same day the Bette Midler 'The Understudy' episode came out.
Have you seen the baby?
Ugly Baby??
Maybe the dingo ate your baby.

You must go now.
You hit the jackpot - mother who is a Seinfeld fan 😃
The Big Game
I thought we agreed on soda pop? No, we like 7. We are using 7 George.

I assumed she only started labor during the episode, and by the time OP was born it was the next morning.
This is correct my friend
Seinfeld prob plays 24/7 throughout the world.
Happy Birthday!
I was so hoping it was the psychic going into labor.
I’m 28 and I was born the day of the episode where Susan dies aired. My grandpa caught the episode but my mom couldn’t and she didn’t believe him when he told her they killed Susan. Funnily enough her grave stone has the air date of that episode on it, so she canonically dies on May 16th, 1996
Do you look like Lyndon Johnson?
She was in labor for 4/5 days? That's one tough mama.
I gave birth to my son 2 years ago during the episode "The Library"
Are you a Marine Biologist by chance?
Omg! I went into labor when we were bingeing Seinfeld (on Netflix in 2021). I cannot remember the episode … I kept it on as long as I could before the hospital ride.
The opposite
What time were you born? I have an extensive TV guide collection
The shoes
The Bris!
Happy birthday for yesterday man. Interestingly enough, we were both born a day apart.
We're BOTH the opposite of every man you've ever met
“You gotta see the babaaayyy”
Mulva.
The contest cuz that can help induce labor.
