Byline: Meg Illah?

akivamcohen.bsky.social•2 days ago

Yep

I have a gift for the mohel.

That really could have been an Onion headline

It is satire.

dalassa.bsky.social•2 days ago

I am not convinced it’s real. Look at the date and the author name.

Explain to a gentile, please?

dalassa.bsky.social•2 days ago

It was published on a Jewish holiday known for fun and jokes and the authors name is the word for scroll in Hebrew which also is used to describe five books in the Tanakh. The most prominent one being Esther which is read on this holiday.

I read the article and I was like, OK, this has to be satire. The byline, though, sailed right over this Gentile's head 😎

dalassa.bsky.social•2 days ago

The whole Meg Illah is the joke.

matthewsp.bsky.social•2 days ago

Literally 😎

The UK Jewish press has a long tradition of publishing Purim stories that get picked up by the unsuspecting mainstream media

erikcorley.bsky.social•2 days ago

To be fair, the boys at the yeshiva fall for Purim jokes, too. Two years ago, several of them edited their spell checkers to add, "gullable."

dalassa.bsky.social•2 days ago

And it’s starting to break containment from people thinking it’s real.

This is so... funny in a terrible way.

catbirdmeows.bsky.social•2 days ago

Even as a joke piece I can't stop imagining this 🙃

yeahjeetsyeah.bsky.social•2 days ago

He's converting to Judaism for the jokes?

3fecta.bsky.social•2 days ago

Is this good enough for the ADL though. I mean, I wish I was joking.

antinickname.bsky.social•2 days ago

lolllll what the fuck

nora-hakase.bsky.social•2 days ago

Boy, is this ever true. Even I know this. Oh man

The lengths this man will go to in order to not go to therapy.

akivamcohen.bsky.social•2 days ago

OK, I got got

lauraeh.bsky.social•2 days ago

The byline

qlippot.bsky.social•2 days ago

'Tis the season.

akivamcohen.bsky.social•2 days ago

Like, not even deep Jewish history; Gilad Atzmon, Shlomo Sand, and Max Blumenthal are all right here

dalassa.bsky.social•2 days ago

That guy who changed his name so he could be a Nazi.

Or Stephen Miller, or Alan Dershowicz or Jared Kushner.

This is a classic Seinfeld episode

bigladydragon.art•2 days ago

wasnt that a Seinfeld episode plot? Tim Whatley the dentist converts to Judaism so he can tell jewish jokes?

That's so bigoted of you! You sound like a rabid antidentite!

bentwhee.bsky.social•1 day ago

It starts with a few jokes, but then you say they should have their own schools.

I mean,is there any other reason ;)

In a related story, Trump to declare he's black, in order to erase a lifetime of unending bigotry. Will declare his father was black too, and that getting arrested at a KKK march in New York City, was just an accident.
