These days, our favorite television shows are ever-so-helpful, telling us when to Tweet about them, and even offering hashtag suggestions that we really should use.

However, it turns out we've been hashtagging for years ... we just didn't know it. Buzzfeed's Jace Lacob took a look back at "Seinfeld," imagining what the show would have looked like in our hashtag era. Even without social media then, fans of the show still recall iconic lines like "These pretzels are making me thirsty," "Master of my domain," and "No soup for you!"

How did we know to talk about "Spongeworthy" or "Puffy Shirt" without a helpful hashtag on the screen? Because we didn't need the show to tell us how to talk about it. Sometimes the hashtag just comes naturally. Besides, as Lacob pointed out, did we really need to see #Newman on our screen countless times throughout the run of the show?
