The Rantings of A Frum Yid With A Warped Perspective

Kosherfest Thoughts

November 12th, 2008 · 7 Comments

The best way to describe Kosherfest is that it is an all day Kiddush for someone celebrating an event who has a very diverse family. Chassidim mixed with Asians, completely secular Jews and a whole bunch of slick looking Israelis harking their olive oil and wines filled this huge convention center in what could only [...]

Are you pissed that some events have mixed seating?

October 28th, 2008 · 30 Comments

Then you can bring tear gas and stab someone…
Vos is Neias reports that a man in Israel showed up at a birthday party of a three year old armed with tear gas and stabbed someone because he was bothered by the mixed seating. I can just imagine what would happen at a yeshiva prom.
So what now, [...]

Video of the Crown Heights Simchas Bais Hashoeva

October 24th, 2008 · 28 Comments

This is the only video I could really put up but it pretty much shows what goes on- a happy time of dancing and chilling, mostly. This was just a random video and like most frummies Lubavitchers do not like being put on tape- I do enjoy the one guy at the end who screams [...]

Crown Heights Simchas Bais Hoshoeva: Photos and Thoughts

October 19th, 2008 · 54 Comments

I arrived in Crown Heights at 11:30pm last night, jacked up on an almond snickers bar and some mountain dew I thanked the Lord for convincing me to take a nap earlier in the day so that I could have the energy to drive all the way to Crown Heights at such a late hour. [...]

Anti Indulgence Chassidim in Williamsburg ban Choice!!!

October 16th, 2008 · 21 Comments

I have always had some existential angst when it came to the whole concept of choice. All those theories about freedom of choice and God knowing all drive me so crazy that I choose to just ignore everything and go along in my partially blind faith- “how can God know everything that will happen yet [...]

What on earth is a Tuna Beigel?

September 22nd, 2008 · 11 Comments

In the frum world there is lots of terminology that I am still coming to terms with. Sometimes I ry and insert words to make myself sound more frum, in fact using words like Viter or shayich can really improve your standing with frummies who begin to think that your kipa sruga is just one [...]

How did 7-11 become the preeminent Jewish hangout?

September 14th, 2008 · 17 Comments

Because its 24 hours and frum Jdews have a love affair with sugar filled slurpies. Some may say its the sexual innuendo behind slurpies, but I merely think its the fact that not only is 7-11 a 24 hour establishment, but its one of the only places in many towns where Jews can actually hang [...]

Chassidim in Willaimsburg say bike lanes are not tznius!!!

September 13th, 2008 · 33 Comments

When the bans and chumras start affecting me they have gone too far. While reading Vos Iz Neias this morning I cam across an article on this issue and I am in pain. Because now they are starting to ban things that mean something to me. I wash my own spinach, don’t listen to Jewish [...]
