Curb Your Enthusiasm: 10 Worst Things Larry David Ever Did

2. Steals Flowers From His Friend's Mother's Memorial

This is perhaps his most heartless of actions man could be capable of. When Larry offends the headteacher of a school that his best friend needs his daughter to get into, he, very thoughtfully, goes to get her some flowers to apologise.

But when it comes to paying for them at a florist, they won’t accept his bill. Subsequently empty handed whilst driving by the memorial of his friend Marty Funkhouser’s recently departed mother, he just can’t help himself. Climbing gingerly out of the car like a teenager coming home drunk at 4AM, he steals some flowers, an action he later repeats when in need of more flowers for his wife.

You can just hear Funkhouser’s mother turning over in the grave. But the chickens come home to roost, as they always do for Larry, and Marty, literally, ends up sniffing it out.

How those two remain friends after that is beyond the realms of comprehension…
