After watching this episode of the Colbert Report I realized I heard this material somewhere before. Where? WHEN I SAW JERRY SEINFELD SAY IT IN PERSON THREE YEARS EARLIER. Don't believe me? Since no one told me at the time that Steve Colbert would want to use the material, I didn't have a chance to videotape it, however if you google "jerry seinfeld monkey bars" we do come up with the following evidence that dates back to 2003.

Seinfeld went on to weave together observations about his mother, monkey bars, phone technology and the millennium, to roars of laughter. The comedian derided the use of instant polls on news shows "so we can get the opinion of people whose lives are so empty they have the television, computer and Internet all going at the same time.... Ladies and gentlemen, if life to you is what's online, on TV, on the phone and on your e-mail, I've got an instant message for you: Open a window. It stinks in here."
