Nothing of Jerry?
he's mostly just the crucible of the show. The best Jerry stories are his family woes and muse/anti-muse for Kramer and Newman. The OCD dating stuff is ok.
Exactly. Jerry is mostly just the narrator of the show, and (in some cases) a semblance of a moral compass and foil to the others, mostly George.
I love his analogies. I grew up watching Seinfeld, so naturally I use analogies heavily on a day to day basis.

Through a legal loophole, Kramer secedes from the US and creates his own country in his apartment, but without a passport he can't legally leave. George and Elaine argue over what would be the best name for Kramer's country. Jerry is annoyed by the border patrol agents always in the hallway.
It would have to be Kramerica, right?

Airport plot got this thread moving, and I laughed at each example. George was one of the best characters in tv comedy.

I think this thread has inspired me to watch Seinfeld.

It's always Sunny in Philadelphia is way better. So is family guy, that 70s show, scrubs, Weeds, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Chappelle show, and the office. Seinfeld is way way down the list. You should give it a shot tho. Especially if you like a mediocre comedian doing a show about nothing surrounded by an outlandish cast that makes the show. You could plug and play any person to replace Jerry even Steve Segall and you would get the same outcome.
To each there home, tho. Give it a whirl.

Oh throw in Archer too. Way better than Seinfeld.

Or Kosmosicstan, and Kramer can wear old WWII soviet era uniform which was lice infested and the museum was "gonna just throw it away!"
When Jackie Chiles finally succeeds in getting Kramer a passport, he is still not allowed to leave his apt. bc travelers from Kosmosicstan are quarantined bc of the lice.
With the "national debt" piling up due to rapidly escalating legal bills, Kramer's only way out is civil unrest and to stage a coup against himself, which results in the annexation of his country by U.S. of A.

I read one a while back.
George is dating a girl on tinder, but breaks up with her because he finds out she's on two other dating sites.

Here's mine:
George is short on cash for "X" large purchase. (I didn't think of everything here). He decides to start a Go-Fund-Me for "The Human Fund" in an attempt to get some extra spending cash. He distributes cards in a few places around the city, hoping to bring in a few hundred dollars. At first, thats what happens, $20 here, $10 there over a few days. Inexplicably, it catches fire on social media and generates hundreds of thousands of dollars. Its on the news, all over the internet, etc. Now in the public eye, George must donate all the money to various other charities and ends up with none of the money and burdened by the stress of disseminating it.

So Curb your Enthusiasm is better, huh? Interesting.

I like this angle, but let's say it's a flag. Kosmopia needs a flag so he gets one out of the dumpster behind the museum. It's the Czechoslovakian flag (which no longer exists). He's walking down the street and sees some guys wearing shirts with the flag on it. He goes up to them and says, "Hey, that's my country!" They are from the old country and say something back in Czech that he doesn't understand so nods. What they said was, "We are working underground to try to reunite the Czech Republic and Slovakia, do you want to join us?"
Kramer wants them to see his country, but they think he is allowing them to use it as their meeting space. Kramer finally wises up and asks Jerry for help to get rid of them. Newman saves the day by waving around his postal worker credentials saying he's the feds.

I'll take a stab at this:
Jerry gets dumped by his girlfriend because he refused to take a selfie with her on the jumbotron during the "Selfie Seventh Inning Stretch" at a Mets game. After the breakup, Jerry goes to visit his parents in Florida, and his mom sets him up on a date with her "cute new tennis instructor". They hit it off but it goes south when they get in a mild argument at the dinner table because she was taking too many pictures of her food. Jerry gets left by himself with the bill, naturally.
Elaine has a nice paying upper management gig with Facebook in NY, but loses all credibility with her staff when videos surface of her dance moves at a party years back. They make a gif of her and it gets passed through the office. She gets on a table and hollers at everyone and busts out dancing to show them it's not that bad. An intern millenial almosts vomits.
George lies his way, successfully, into instructing a yoga class to meet girls. The first day he finds "hurts his back" and only walks around helping/watching them stretch and saying "namaste" all creepily. He applies for disability/unemployment as well because, well, he's George Costanza. The black lady he applies to was his former social worker and she knows his ways.
Kramer and Newman open a movie theatre in Kramer's apartment. Since Jerry is in Florida, Kramer uses Jerry's apartment as the arcade. Montages of Kramer schooling kids in arcade games goes viral and Jerry sees it. When he gets back, the apartment is, of course, perfectly like Jerry had left it. When he confronts Kramer in his apartment, Newman and Kramer are watching the original Superman on the movie screen and Jerry forgets he was even upset, sits down to join them. He asks a question but Newman shooshes him. Jerry takes Newman's popcorn and makes a sarcastic look.
End show.

Yep. There was one where George breaks up with an OT-10 because he gave her his Netflix password and it was ruining his recommendations.
