re: Jerry Seinfeld is not funny

Stuff like - "why do they sell hot dogs in packs of 8 while hot-dog buns are sold in packs of 10? Why is this? Can we get a summit, a conference...to bring the hot-dog people and the bun people together? Can we solve their differences?"

But answer me this. How many times have you heard that joke? How many times has that joke been available (both items on the counter) and everyone in the room has passed on making the joke. I have heard that discussion over 100 times in my life.

Jerry's style is obvious humor. There aren't that many people that can take a fairly obvious observation and make it funny. I think he owns that style, and was the basis of his show.
