OK Larry..Sorry to say; you are starting to lose it and starting to lose me.
I use to love the show for its commentary on all the crap that annoys us that comes up socially. Some of the situations you played out on the show where perfect on right on. These are some of my favorites. (If anyone wants any more detail on these shows, drop me a note)
1) Having to take a tour of someone’s house….could not agree more, who cares?
2) Using your mother’s death as an excuse to get out of social commitments…although it’s tragic when we lose a loved one, we have all played that card when convenient for us to get out of something. Anyone who says they haven’t is probably lying.
3) The frustration of having to get a gift wrapped. Why aren’t the scissors and the tape all in the same place?
4) Kissing everyone hello…It is a pain in the ass
This week, the bit with the kids lemonade stand? Larry David may be a prick but getting into a beef with kids at lemonade stand is a bit out the scope of what Larry is all about. We all see ourselves in Larry and applaud that he is able to bodily handle the circumstances that frustrate us. I don’t think getting into a fight with a bunch of 10 year olds at a lemonade stand is what we would do.
The taking of the pants? Walking around with the security tags? Not sure about that one. But I did like to retort to the store clerk when discussing the sign that claims the store is not responsible for last articles.
There is always more, but this is what struck me now.
That’s all for now.
Hope to hear your comments.
Keep Watching.

I thought this season of Curb was definitely exceptional! The final show (“Seinfeld”) was perfection!
