Writing comedy on Tisha B’av is like eating prok for kiddush on Yom Kippor, well maybe not that bad – but it just doesn’t feel write. Well maybe I should say posting, because with all this free time I have been writing a lot. So I figured I would go and hunt down a bunch of mature Tisha B’av posts around the web and on other blogs to bring to you so you can have a more meaningful Tisha B’av.
As Always Dov Bear has a load of interesting posts about Tisha B’av – and they all have some good discussion in the comments sections.

Wolfish Musings has a great post about the Real Cause of Our Problems – not directly Tisha B’av but very delated to the day.
As expected Hirhurim has multiple posts on the topic and as always they are well written, sourced and have loads of discussion in the talk back section.

Yid with a lid’s blog:

Sorry, but, HA HA. Just brought back some old memories.
Why do you have alot of free time? Did I miss something?
Eating prok doewsn’t feel write? Why didn’t you pay attention in class?
Yid with Lid’s post is such bunk. Tisha b’Av was on August 2 in 1914. What happened on that date?
A23 according to the speaker I saw last night August 1st 1914 was the start of World War One
