bobchitown Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 (edited) That's the wholesale price! This thread still makes me chuckle. I'm glad to see that Mr. Legendary from DC has posted on it. He is indeed Legendary and Jewish and also very nice (and naughty LOL) but I don't think he qualifies as a "nice Jewish boy" as defined by most mothers.

marylander1940 Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 Well, it's that time of the year again. As the High Holy Days are almost upon us, Bozo is in search of that elusive hot Jewish escort offering a Rosh Hashana discount or even a 25% off sale for making it thru the Yom Kippur fast. Anyone? http://simpsonswiki.com/w/images/thumb/5/5d/Young_Krusty.png/180px-Young_Krusty.png Bozo Does he qualify? is he good enough for you? https://rentmen.com/IsraeliHandsome TruHart1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruHart1 Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 Does he qualify? is he good enough for you? https://rentmen.com/IsraeliHandsome Oh my, he's sure gorgeous. I doubt he'd give a discount for High Holy Day appointments, though! o_Oo_O:rolleyes: TruHart1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despardo Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 I have an enjoyable Christmas Day ritual - I go to the Jewish Community Center to work out. In addition to the goyim like me who visit once a year, the place is packed with nice Jewish boys, many of which would be entirely suitable for presentation to mom. During her Senate confirmation hearings, Supreme Court justice Elena Kagan replied to a question about Christmas traditions (don't remember exactly how that came up in the hearings, but consider it is the Senate we are talking about here.) She replied, "Well Senator, as you know, I am Jewish, so my family Christmas tradition is to go out for Chinese food." Got a huge laugh. + Funguy, bigvalboy, rvwnsd and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despardo Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 Dinner at a Chinese restaurant and a movie is supposed to be a popular way for Jewish families to spend Christmas Day. When I lived in NYC, I used to entertain every Christmas Eve. I could always count on my Jewish friends to show up since they did not typically have family or other commitments for that date.

Tigger Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 Dinner at a Chinese restaurant and a movie is supposed to be a popular way for Jewish families to spend Christmas Day. I've heard it was because Chinese restaurants were more likely to be open as the owners and servers were usually not Christian. But I don't know if that's true or not.

But I don't know if that's true or not. Jews are traditionally partial to Chinese food for a number of reasons, not the least of which is that it is very good, but also because it generally contains no dairy products. So, if you eliminate the shrimp and the pork and the lobster, it fits within Kosher guidelines, at least if one is Reformed, i.e. not too strict. I suppose many Chinese restaurants are open on Christmas, but maybe not so much these days. The ones with mostly Asian clientele probably would be open.

Here in San Francisco, Chinatown is a jumping place on Christmas. In college, I worked for a kosher caterer. It turns out, there are degrees of Kosher. One time, we catered a wedding at an orthodox synagogue. There were going to be several Hassidic rabbis there from New York. Even thought it was a kosher caterer using a kosher facility in an orthodox synagogue, the food wasn't kosher enough for the rabbis. They needed special food.

Even thought it was a kosher caterer using a kosher facility in an orthodox synagogue, the food wasn't kosher enough for the rabbis. They needed special food. I became friends with a Conservative co-worker who lived in Crown Heights, Brooklyn. She taught me that there are indeed degrees of Kosher all the way from only on holidays, no pork or shrimp (except maybe sometimes,) down to insanely restrictive. The rest of my many NY Jewish friends would eat anything! I twice attended a Passover seder in which the hostess was in fact the only Jew at the table (Elijah excepted ,) so she got to officiate. The rest of the party consisted of 2 Roman Catholics, one former Presbyterian, and a Russian Orthodox. + honcho 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do. Buckets of bland chow mein, mountains of white rice, egg drop soup, egg rolls and lots of msg. Nothing much else. You could, however, stuff yourself for cheap.

Also, if you all haven't watched yet, check out "Seeking General Tso's" on Netflix. On the surface, it is about the dish but gets much deeper into the diaspora of Chinese immigrants after the passing of the Exclusionary Act and why so many Asians run restaurants and laundries to this day.
