The Rabbi of Kotzk was asked:
Why is Shavuot called, "the time the Torah was given" rather than "the time we received the Torah?"
He answered: "The giving took place on one day, but the receiving takes place at all times."

My 6yo daughter ran into a boy she recognized at the park. He asked her to show him her teeth, then excitedly yelled, "One is wiggly! You ARE the girl who goes to my camp!"

Four old Jewish men are sitting in a cafe. “Oy,” says the first man. “Oy vey,” says the second man. “Oy vey iz mir,” says the third man. The fourth man snaps: “if you don’t stop talking about politics, I’m walking out!”

Daniel Kahn's Yiddish cover of "Hallelujah" blows every other Hallelujah cover out of the water. (To be fair, 99.9% of Hallelujah covers are godawful. But still.)

Agreed on Mumford's cover of The Boxer, but I prefer Bambie Thug's recent Zombie cover to Miley's (though Miley is also quite good, and that's a *damn* hard song to cover well!)

If you are going to be protesting anywhere near the Republican National Convention, write the NLG number on your stomach in Sharpie (not your arm: cops use that as "evidence of premeditation"). They are fucking superheroes. Give them money to keep being superheroes: www.nlg.org/donate/

"Don't worry, if the president imprisons his political enemies, you can still get a writ of habeas corpus." "But to prove that's why you've been imprisoned requires proof of..." "Presidential motive!" "And under Trump v US, presidential motive is..." "Inadmissible!"

Unfortunately, this one isn't quite true. The band Dschinghis Khan *did* compete in Eurovision 1979, but their competing song was "Dschinghis Khan," not "Moskau" (which they did release as a single that same year).

Amusingly, all the questions about word pronunciation were on point for where I actually live, but the "what do you call X" questions threw the results off course (it had a small dark red patch where I actually live, but predicted I live around Tacoma, Seattle, or Salt Lake City--not even close).

Considering my special interest from ages 6-10 was in this specific animal and my immediate reaction was "all of these plus its scientific name, puma concolor," I have concluded that my dialect is "autism."
