Jewish Holiday

A holiday celebrated by Jews. notably Passover (Pesah), Hanukkah, Purim, Yom Kippur, and Rosh Hashanah. all but two can be broken down to "There were bad guys, we beat em, lets eat!" ;)

There's always more than you can eat at our Passover seder.

Bill Clinton

Incredibly able president who reduced the national debt to the lowest point in decades who was attacked and nearly impeached for something that over half of all presidents did and no one gave a shit. now used as an alternative to Bush suppporters rather than actually arguing their point.

"At least Bush didn't have sex and lie about it. He may have fucked our economy and our country, but he hasn't had extramarital sex (that we know of)!"

yiddish

bastard language of Hebrew and German, used because until recently the Hebrew language was not conducive to conversation. every word is filled with untranslatable connotations, which makes it an excellent swearing language. also holds the most potent insult in the world: paskudnyak

spoken often in New York without actual knowledge of meanings. Almost always heard in combination with English.

Classic yiddish words: shlep, schmuck, klutz, mensch, bagel, and the wonderful -nik nouns (beatnik, nogoodnik...)

jewdar

a nonexistent ability that people claim to have. such people believe they can "sense" a Jew. obviously this is impossible unless the Jew has the distinctive hairstyle of the Orthodox sect or is wearing a yarmulke, since Jews aren't another race and look just like everyone else.

some guy: according to my jewdar, you're Jewish.
me: yeah, and the fact that I'm wearing a star of david had nothing to do with it. shmuck.

The Muffin Gods
