Do you know anyone who reminds you of a character on the show? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Do you know anyone in real life that reminds you of a character on Seinfeld?

Personally, one of my good friends happens to have a personality very much like Kramer.

The only difference is that's he's not clumsy. And also he doesn't look anything like Kramer either. But the personality is exactly the same! He comes to my apartment and first thing he does, he goes to my refrigerator and is looking for beer and something to eat. If there's not much in there, he will point that out to me.

He's also brutally honest----For example, he once did a stint as a carpet cleaner, so if he sees that my carpet has some dust in those hard-to-reach areas, he will point that out to me---and tell me to get a better vaccum cleaner.

He also gives "unusual" advice (usually unasked for) and has a logic all his own. A lot of the advice he tells me, which he thinks makes a lot of sense, sounds ludicrous to me.

He changes girlfriends like other people change socks----usually they leave him because of a "clash of personalities".

He always talks like everything is easy and always has these plans he tells me about which he of course never accomplishes.

He's overbearing, and often manages to convince me---reluctantly---to go somewhere I don't really feel like going or to do things I don't really want to do.

He's always "in your face".

Not easy having Kramer for a friend.

However, like Kramer, he's also quite entertaining.

Sure - I think everyone can recognize bits and pieces of people they know in all the characters on this show.

I have a friend who rants about minor annoyances like George did in the episode where he and Jerry were meeting Elaine and her father in the restaurant, about the guy who was taking a long time on the pay phone when he had to make a call.

Very true-----those characters are such universal stereotypes.
