Can a drop down menu really categorize every Jew?
May 13th, 2008 · 29 Comments
Please be advised- this post is very long…
Frumster was the inventor of categorizing different frumkeit levels, they came up with the idea that every person within the frum community could categorize their hashkafos with a little drop down menu. Apparently telling someone that you are modern orthodox machmir or shomer mitzvos is not enough anymore. […]

Pesach is the time for frummies to eat with secular Jews
April 29th, 2008 · 14 Comments
For many in the frum community- Pesach is a time of family, friends and getting close to secular Jews- that they otherwise would rarely have in their homes. In fact Pesach seems to be the only Jewish holiday in which secular Jews celebrate with their religious counterparts at the same meal. On Rosh Hashanah, you […]

How do you try on a suit? (video)
April 23rd, 2008 · 23 Comments
So I was in Syms trying on a suit before Pesach, I ended up not getting one just because if I shop for longer then 20 minutes I get a headache. So I was sucking in my stomach for the pants to go on when I noticed a yeshiva guy in the corner of the […]

Why do Pesach Seders Suck So Much? (my best seder of all time)
April 22nd, 2008 · 21 Comments
I have mentioned previously that I am not fond of the seder. Waiting hours for food while telling and retelling the same timeless tales of frogs and Pharaohs has never been my forte. On top of this, I just get completely maddened by the tradition of having every kid say the Ma Nishtana in three […]

Funny Pesach Thoughts
April 17th, 2008 · 45 Comments
Non-Gebrokts- is the minhag or tradition that some people have not to combine wet substances with matzo for fear that it will become leavened.
You really don’t truly experience a non-gebrokts Pesach (Passover) until you stay somewhere that holds of Chassidic minhagim. Hotels feature masterful chefs which can manipulate those egg noodles and make it […]

This video corresponds to the very well received post on the guide to saying good shabbos.
Hacking Update
Life must go on, besides I am expecting the folks from yeshiva world news to hack me again and this time delete this blog for good. I reason to suspect it was something to do with yeshiva world […]

All you Jews ever do is complain
April 9th, 2008 · 17 Comments
There are some things in Judaism- most of them take place in shul- that are a pain in the neck, I was thinking about this other day when I was standing in shull and my tefilin did its occasional mysterious unraveling that it likes to do in the middle of shmona esray. In fact I […]

This is one of the funniest videos I have ever seen!!!
April 4th, 2008 · 20 Comments
I don’t say that very often by the way, the jews just don’t put out good stuff- but this had me laughing so hard I almost peed my pants. It makes fun of Sphardim by the way- and its done by the fine folks at TIUNY- the high school I went to.
