He's been writing his pop-tart joke since 2010!

He said in that video writing comedy is like writing lyrics. And I agree. Comedy is kinda like music. And... comedy changes over time... like music changes. An artist needs to change along with the times. There was a reason why The Beatles changed their style over the years. Madonna as well. Comedians should too.
Even though Seinfeld the show is brilliant and still is funny in a classic music type of way, his comedy now just feels dated. There's a reason why Vaudeville is not really around anymore.
Once you're part of the biggest show on TV, it's hard to ground yourself. His woke stance just shows how out of touch he is. Similar to Roseanne. Rob McElhenney's response was perfect:
