Well, you have to understand that LD's character is basically the same as Jerry's in Seinfeld. Both are self absorbed and only care about themselves. Everything that LD does is to make his life easier. It's hard to see the humor in that sometimes and that's why some people hate the show. But if you see the humor in it, it's hilarious. Like last week, his buddy's mother died, and Larry is more concerned about ice cream dripping off the cone than how his buddy is coping w/ the death.

As some of you have mentioned, LD's character is definitely based on George. He even gets offended in prior seasons when Jason Alexander talks about how George was such an idiot on Seinfeld (obv because it was based on Larry).
