Felix: Is it the cooking or the cleaning? The crying? Oscar: I'll tell you exactly what is is. the cooking. the cleaning, the crying. The talking in your sleep. It's those moose calls that open your ears at 2 in the morning. "Honk! Honk!" .... You leave me little notes on my pillow. I've told you 158 times I can't stand little notes on my pillow! "We are all out of cornflakes. F. U." It took me 3 hours to figure out "F. U." was Felix Unger!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_0zr2sXszYM at 0:39 George lists all the specific problems with his girlfriend. Similar to Oscar's list of problems with Felix. I would not be surprised if the Seinfeld writers used ideas from The Odd Couple. George Costanza: The truth? You want the truth? It is your earrings! It is the chopsticks! But it's so much more! You're pretentious! You call everyone by their full name. You called my doorman Sammy, "Samuel". But you didn't even say "Samuel"! You went "Sam - U - EL" Papie-ay Mach-ay! What is Papie-ay Mach-ay?
