Larry David is urging all the “idiots” in California ignoring the state’s stay-at-home order to take advantage of a “once in a lifetime opportunity” to sit at home and watch TV.
The 72-year-old “Curb Your Enthusiasm” creator delivered the advice in a public service announcement released through the California governor’s office Tuesday.
“I basically want to address the idiots out there, and you know who you are, you’re going out,” says David, “you’re socializing too close, it’s not good.”
“You’re hurting old people like me,” the Brooklyn native says, before clarifying, “well not me, I have nothing to do with you, I’ll never see you.”
David notes the state public health order aimed at curbing the spread of coronavirus has presented a golden opportunity to lounge on the couch and watch some tube.
“I mean, I don’t know how you’re passing that up,” he says in the message, which the governor’s office tweeted out.
“Well, maybe because you’re not that bright,” David says, drawing his own conclusion.
“But, here it is — go home! Watch TV! That’s my advice to you.”
