“Found a used copy of this, many years after the fact, and thought I'd give it a try. I've never been a fan of Seinfeld the comedian or "Seinfeld" the sitcom, although I've at least started to grudgingly admit that he can be funny sometimes...maybe by accident.
The few laughs I got from this book seemed to be accidental, anyway..but there were still enough to rate two stars...just barely!
As Seinfeld might have observed, 'It's like the jokes were invited to a party for all the other funny jokes, but the not-funny jokes crashed the party. You could almost imagine a guy at the door saying, 'OK, one-liners over there, riddles, this way, shaggy-dog stories, yeah, come on in, you're good...vaguely humorous observations? I don't see you on my list...''
Classic example of a guy who already had more than enough money trying to cash in even more.

“SeinLanguage met my expectations for being a funny book. At times, the jokes are quite funny that I had to pause before I can gather my thoughts again. However, some of the jokes are stale while there are jokes that are already familiar because it was used in the beginning of the TV show Seinfeld where Jerry Seinfeld would do a routine stand-up comedy. At least they bring good memories for me because I am constantly reading the joke and remembering how he did it in live. There are a few jokes in the book that were written, but honestly, the punchline would have been easily delivered if done orally. One good example is the Chalk-Outline joke where Jerry would do this imitation of the dead guy. That was a really good one. Of any, although there are jokes as equally as good, my favorite of his is one with the Ginsu Knife. Now, let me tell you, I did see the commercial when it first aired, and when I saw the knife cutting the shoe into half, it was the most absurd, bizarre moment I've experienced while watching a commercial like that. I thought that it was a stroke of genius right there. Somebody actually thought of the idea about using the knife to cut the shoe into half, somebody else actually allowed it to be filmed, and somebody else actually did let it be part of the final copy of the commercial. And it got aired for the purpose of selling the knife! Anyway, I am glad that Jerry Seinfeld pointed this out and used it for a joke because I thought that I was the only one who felt this way. All in all, SeinLanguage is a funny book that can be enjoyed, but personally, I prefer the shows more because they have the Kramer effect.”
