When I was watching the special,
there's a chunk of business where
I felt you were attacking me.
I really thought, I really thought
this. There's two places that I went,
Oh shit. I do that with Jerry and I think,
I think it's me he's talking about.
You talk about all your friends are
annoying, but if I go and get new friends,
they're going to be eventually just as
annoying. I feel, I feel at this point.
I'm a friend of yours.
Yes you are. and I must be
one of those annoying people.
Yes you are. You are.
Am I? It's me. Yes. Aren't
you also annoyed by me?
Yeah, I am.
We can switch. We can get other friends,
but they're going to have annoying things
too and it's the same movies and meals
and holidays and changing all the
numbers in the phone is what makes it not
worth doing.
The other place I felt you were addressing
me and I've done this with you and I
said, Oh shit, I've done
this with Jerry. You do it.
A great piece of business in the
new Netflix special where you go,
people go out to dinner and
they turn to me and they go, Oh,
I went to a restaurant. You, you,
Jerry would love this restaurant!
You Jerry, I didn't love it so much,
but you would love it. And I went,
I did that. I literally did this to
this guy. I told you about a restaurant.
I said, Oh, Jerry, I think
you would love it. Meanwhile,
you're right and you're absolutely right.
I don't fucking know if you're
going to love it. I really don't.
Why do we do that?
For some reason people like to single
out other people for a restaurant and go,
you, you have to go. Uh, and it just,
I just think that's funny,
but everyone does it. Howard,
you're not the only
person. Everyone does it.
Do you see why being friendly
with you could be a disaster?
Because there really is this feeling
that like Jerry is judgemental.
Yeah, Howard. I'm not looking for
friends. Anybody wants out, fine,
door's open behind you.
No, but there's a paranoia
because everything aggravates you.
Your comedy especially
is driven by aggravation.
I would say most comedy is most comedy is.
And I know that I get
aggravated by everything too.
Yes. That's why I like
hanging out with you.
Everything irritates me.
Yeah. That's why I like you,
by the way. It's not a
curse. It's your goldmine.
