Yes, great moments of tv entertainment! I like it when he gets a "Christmas card" from Elaine, and also his assertion, "It's not a lie if you believe it, Jerry".
That one has gone from being an obviously ludicrous proposition, designed to get a laugh in a sitcom, to being a guiding principle of the Stop The Steal movement. Life imitating art, I suppose, for maybe 25% of Americans. Whatever the percentage is, that's a lot of people who completely failed to recognise George's idea as a joke.
