  • Larry David issued a PSA for the "idiots" who aren't practicing social distancing amidst the COVID-19 pandemic.

  • "I don't know what you're doing. You're going out, you're socializing too close—it's not good," he said.

  • His show, Curb Your Enthusiasm, just finished its 10th season, airing its 100th episode.


If anyone is America's foremost authority on, well, not beating around the bush, it's Larry David. The Curb Your Enthusiasm star and creator just wrapped his 10th season of speaking his mind as a version of himself on HBO, and now he's released a new PSA from the California Governor's office addressing the "idiots" who aren't practicing social distancing amidst the current COVID-19 pandemic.

"I basically want to address the idiots out there—and you know who you are. I don't know what you're doing. You're going out, you're socializing too close—it's not good," David said in the video. "You're hurting old people like me—well, not me. I have nothing to do with you, I'll never see you."

David continued, clarifying that while the people he's addressing in the video probably won't ever meet him in the flesh, they could still be hurting other people in their community—possibly even their own family members. He also made a good point, saying when else would you essentially be mandated to stay in and watch TV for the good of society? It's an introvert's absolute dream.

"The problem is you're passing up a fantastic opportunity, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, to stay in the house, sit on the couch and watch TV," David, who plays one of TV's most iconic curmudgeons, said. "I don't know how you're passing that up. Well... maybe because you're not that bright"

He concluded the video telling people to do, well, the best thing you can possibly do: go home and watch TV. "If you've seen my show, nothing good ever happens going out of the house. You know that."

If you have Amazon Prime or HBOGo or HBONow, you can watch countless episodes of David's show, Curb Your Enthusiasm, right now. That is a way better use of time than going outside and getting people sick—that's for sure.
