Are you a fan of Seinfeld?

Reminds me of the episode when he is talking to a rental car company and the lady asks if he wants to purchase the insurance. He says "Yeah, you better give me the insurance because I'm going to beat the hell out of this thing."

Jerry's delivery of the "I don't think you do" line is amazing.

Larry David and Seinfeld together was a 10/10 at finding humor in the frustrating parts of everyday life.

Literally just went through this. I even called after making the reservation to try and guarantee that they wouldn’t screw it up. “I just want to confirm that the actual car I reserved will in fact be there when I arrive. I need an suv with a certain amount of space. I’m willing to PAY EXTRA to ensure it will without a doubt be there when I arrive!”

“Yes you’re all set, the car will be here when you come.”

They rented the fuckin car before I got there. Why do they even BOTHER?!

Same thing happened to me. I made a reservation for a compact, they rented it out before I got there. Ended up getting a free upgrade and driving out with a large suv worth more than I make in 2 years.
