When I talk with Baal Teshuvas I always ask them the obvious question, but I ask it in a way that implies they joined some kind of cult or something. “When did you drink the punch?” is my common line and usually they give me that blank I never heard of the Jonestown Massacre look.
Today I asked the question of a girl I was talking to over Facebook and she gave me the whole story about becoming frum and somewhere along the way she said she got “Aished” and that was it.
Now I feel like making a show similar to Pranked but with the name of Aished!
Jack went away to college and suddenly found himself at a shabbat meal, he now has a long gray beard and works in the recycled mezuza industry. His parents were alarmed when they first saw him with the hat and garb but realized their matzo would be way better if it were made from Jewish blood rather then last name is cohen but we’re not Jewish blood. You’ve been Aished.
Leslie was working 12 hour days at a high powered corporate job, when she met Adam, only problem was, Adam was an undercover agent for Aish who forced Leslie to fall in love with him only to realize he was playing her along, they now live in Meah Shearim and run a operate shabbos riot tour in the Bais Yisroel and Geula neighborhoods.You’ve been aished.

You were given $400.00 to take a class. Then you took and afterwards know what happens… You’ve Been Aished! Forget law school…it kollel!
that my friend is funny.. what about the neve cult? i went to that …
Genius!
you’re more frum than you thought!
The show is Punk’d, not Pranked
So when you fall in love with the Rebbe, you’ve been Chabaddeded? Always been trying to come up with a word for that one. Aish is too easy, all the work is done for you.
Lead off the show with “a burning ring of fire” by cash
you know someone’s been aished if they come back from Eretz Yisroel in Tzitzis down to the floor, but sdon’t machmir on shomer or stuff like that. they sometimes machmir on certain specific things. they usually don’t read ivrit very well, either…but hey, aish is not about learning, it’s about copying!
What does Jonestown have to do with any–Oh, I get it. Though I think a comparison between James Warren Jones and Rabbi Noach Weinberg would be going a bit too far.
thank g-d for aish and neve…
(and just think.. if it werent for those types of places you make fun of, you’d have a much much smaller readership)
I think many girls get Neve’d rather than/in addition to being Aish’d…
Please accommodate special episode for all the balabatisher Torah Temima kids who get Brisked.
Your krias shma takes up a shiur chazon ish chunk of time, shmAAAHH, tiZZZZZZZZkeru,
You Got Brisked!
You’ve got brisked sounds like you got frisked, but that only happens when you are in the middle of a circle wedding dance and everyone stops and bumps up against each other.
sam
I take it you are a balebatisher brisker!
Now if you are a brisker what on earth are you doing on the internet?
What would Reb Dovid or R’ Avraham Yehoshua have to say?
I got Aished and Neve’ed (B”H) and I totally agree with m00kie. =)
It wasn’t Jonestown dude, it was WACO, TEXAS.
