some things are more effective in small doses. also, highlights are usually featured in these clips, so yeah, cherry picked skits from a (essentially) compilation of skits is pretty damn entertaining. you can think of it as highlight reels. though you might miss out on "connective skits", if you already watched it the dvds, you wouldn't care as much. another point is accessibility, as long as you have wifi you have youtube.
The cobb salad guy is annoying and she even had to tell him "calm down" as if he has flipped out over this on several occasions. Like what the fuck its a stupid shitty salad and she has to babysit his pretentious ass. She is definitely looking to jump shit ASAP
Sorry to break the magic Cobb boy, but the Cobb salad was invented in 1912 by Cobbe Bryant during the half time of a Bulls-Celtics game. And actually the real recipe was exactly how Larry ordered it, but the transcription done by the monks that found the original manuscript in Sanskrit was wrong cause there were stains of old ketchup on it which made it illegedible. Lesson is: never read from books and go digital. Bobby will thank you.
@@hollyjollydog Supposedly even as early as 1926 because the ex-husband of some famous lady from back then was talking to some folks said, “Anybody could open a place in an alley or wherever and name it whatever as long as a restaurant has good food and good service people will go there, it could even be named something dumb as brown derby” A couple years later a restaurant inspired by this was opened called brown derby and was shaped like a hat in the year 1926 and supposedly the cobb salad was invented early on in the restaurants lifespan.
What’s so brilliant about this scene is that the entire audience is thinking the same thing when Larry asks for no eggs or bacon. Cliff is 100% correct in his thinking. It’s only when he explicitly says something that he becomes in the wrong. Curb’s ability to tap into the awkward nuances of human interaction is incredible
I thought you were going to write the entire audience was thinking the two spouses should hook up out of jealousy/loneliness/spite at their more fun spouses just before larry suggested sex
It's good that the Cobb salad guy is so tuned-in when it comes to someone being annoying by making too many salad ingredient substitutions. But then he finds it suitable to have a conversation where he's pretending his wife and Larry aren't even there. Like who would you rather have at your dinner table?
That's coz the show's being told from Larry's perspective. You're meant to realise that Larry is just as bad as, if not worse than, the people he is bitching about. That's the joke.
I’ve lost 40 pounds off my gut by just cutting out the processed sugar and eating a Cobb salad every day. I spend my $10.00 and force it down like medicine. It took 3 months. I’m tired of Cobb salads but it works.
My name is Dave Muzak. My grandfather had a small radio business right across the road from a factory that built elevators. They ended up negotiating a partnership that helped revolutionize elevator travel. They named it Muzak after my grandfather and later expanded to lobbies, waiting rooms, and eventually to hold lines on telephone. It's a subject that is near and dear to my heart. Its not as pompous and in your face as whats called "regular music". Some would say its actually better.
This reminds me of my uncle Richard Walker who invented walking when he tried to stand twice at the same time and then word got out about his discovery
There is absolutely no show ever made that is able to plow new social insights for me the way Curb does. For instance, I am so much more sophisticated having watched this snippet.
I have a friend who’s last name is Cherry and he swears up and down his family got that last name bc they discovered cherries. The fruit. He’s gonna go to his grave believing his family stumbled upon cherries before anyone else. Lol.
My mom didn't believe in being honest with children about certain topics. This led to several embarrassing social interactions in my teens and early twenties.
Also owned the Billings Mustangs Baseball Club. People always think their old ballpark was named for Ty Cobb but like the salad it was named for Bob Cobb.
Seinfeld would have went on to say “when do you start with a blank salad and then add ingredients vs starting with the Cobb and removing some ingredients?”
the theme and moral of the story of theses show ( which is right on ) no matter what you do -no matter what you say-- you just can't win ! you're bound to piss someone off

Bob Cobb The Cobb salad was born in the wee hours of a Hollywood, California, morning in 1937 at the Brown Derby restaurant. The owner, Bob Cobb, was ruffling through the kitchen's refrigerator, pulling out various remnants including lettuce, hard-boiled eggs, cheese, tomatoes, chives and avocado.Jul 3, 2017
my late great uncle's last name was CHIP ... all his life he loved POTATOES ... ate them pretty much EVERY way you could imagine ... lived till the old age of 93 ... NEVER invented a thing ...
One says that it came about in the 1937 at the Hollywood Brown Derby restaurant, where it became a signature dish. It is named for the restaurant's owner, Robert Howard Cobb. Stories vary whether the salad was invented by Cobb or by his chef, Paul J. Posti.
Julius Caesar invented Caesar salad when he was in London . It’s recorded in the annals of Suetonius that he said “va funculo! cheddar cheese! I want Parmesan all over the anchovy dressing”.
THIS is one of the 3 best scenes from CURB your enthusiasm: this scene and the Rosie O'Donnell GAME ON scene and the Bob Odenkirk Tabasco sauce porn story story
My grandfather didn't invent jack. He was a lower middle class Midwesterner who worked in the machine shop for a railroad and got his eye put out on the job. He was a short guy who married a tall woman and he was a cocky little fellow they say.
As Ive gotten older, and rewatched the show I found that I agree with Larry in about 95% of situations.
He says what we wish we could say. That's what makes it popular.
1000👍!!
@Pepi Roni You’re way out of line pepperoni
@Pepi Roni Noo I disagree the last seasons has been great! Me and my family has gotten so many laughs with some of the new episodes.

And my grandma was Mary Butterfinger. Need I say more?

For real tho, i wouldve just said i dont care if it bothers you dude, im ordering it how i want, and bullshit on your dad inventing it.
He's used to shit like this

So he was a little shit and your great grandfather was compelled to discipline him?

Did he also invent a bus by chance?
My great-great grandfather was Irving Scrabble. But, oddly enough, he invented Sudoku.
Reminds me of Ping and Pong, the Chinese inventing duo. They actually named their game for their last names: Table and Tennis, respectively.

The way this scene turns out is hysterical.
She called Larry's bluff like people rarely do. It was like watching someone realize they were unexpectedly checkmated.
It wasn't a bluff, he was joking by saying something really weird to show that the other two people were not paying attention to them at all
purple shirt wasn't joking
Jesse G
Sweater vest blouse
It was more of a lavender
