About

You're Crying From X or George Costanza Crying refers to a series of exploitable image macros based on a scene from Seinfeld where Jerry walks in on George crying to Home Alone.

The scene was converted into an image macro and posted by Tumblr[1] user seinfeld-daily on December 29th, 2016, garnering over 9,000 notes in seven years (shown below, left).
