Confession.

It seems like everybody thinks Seinfeld is, like, the funniest show ever.

But you don't think it's all that funny. In fact, you think it's pretty annoying. And now that you really think about it, you realize you actually can't stand that show.

But you can never admit this in polite company. Because here in America, only humorless deviants could not like Seinfeld. How could you not like Seinfeld? You've learned to nod and smile when people recount their favorite episodes. "Oh yeah, that was so funny!" you hear yourself saying. But you don't know what they're talking about, because you've never been able to watch more than five minutes of a Seinfeld episode before you start to feel downright agitated.

And sometimes it's lonely to feel like you're the only person who understands what Seinfeld really is: obnoxious people trying too hard to rip hilarity from ordinary life by being as unnecessarily quirky as possible.
