"I do not want to be in the cars. The cars are my prison."

It was me and Leno puking our minds out while we drove around Los Angeles. It seemed like things couldn’t get any worse, but then while we were stopped at a traffic light, the backseat of the car opened up and in climbed my comedian friend Steve Harvey and without saying anything Steve Harvey started vomiting right along with me and Leno. The three of us filled the 1979 Porsche with vomit and then Steve Harvey opened the door and left the car as silently as he had entered it, leaving Leno and I alone in the ruined Porsche.

"I do not want to be in the cars. The cars are my prison."

Funnily (and honestly), the mantra of my car free, live-simply lifestyle.

It's fitting that this post (real or not) comes three FPPs after one about Robert Llewellyn, given Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee is a big-budget ripoff of his Carpool.

I enjoyed reading this almost a year ago when it came out. It might have even been posted here.

Wait, so is this not actually written by Jerry Seinfeld?

I enjoyed this a great deal, and do not give a hoot if it's a year old.

My favorite episode was Jon Hamm shouting "yowza!" eighty-six times in a row before vomiting into the glove box of a Bentley.

I actually have no idea what any of this means but I had the same reaction as alex_skazat. "Hey Jerry, buy a bike. Trust me, you'll love it."

Sweet. I enjoyed reading it this morning, which was the first time I ever laid eyes on it.

Two peas in a pod we are!

I am reminded of J.P. Seinfeld's phenomenological essay on ontology "Beans and Nothingness" in which he proved that the movie "Free Willy" exists. Clearly, he has made a serious late career break with his earlier philosophy despite dad sneaker continuity.
