@bluebears: But he left her for an Ethiopian woman...so hey! He's an anti-Semite, but at least he's not racist!

@Tchotchke: I have hearted you. I'd do it twice if I could.

@PilgrimSoul: We need something to keep us off the streets on Thursday nights.

@bluebears: I KNOW! I was like...b/c the Count hates Jews?

@miss.helen.sears: This one too. Jill seriously needs a refresher course in High Holidays 101. Also, Advanced Atonement.

You mean because everyone's white and related to one another?

@elembee: Hope it works out! Or that the other two stay single....

Much respect for the lack of Botox. (and for the cleavage)

I really liked the description of the difference between Orthodox Judaism vs. Ultra-Orthodox Judaism: Orthodox means you don't want to see a woman in a bathing suit. Ultra-Orthodox means you want to close down the beach.

@greeneyedfem: Yes, it's really that loophole-y. Without getting into a major Talmudic discourse, the truth is that Jewish customs are much more flexible than they may seem, and it's possible to argue some loopholes in and out.

@Hortense: Hooray! I knew someone would post this!

@marks-alot: I would love to see Joe Biden in some jewel tones. And maybe a kicky pleated skirt or two.

Note to Kate Betts: Even when you come right out and acknowledge that you're perpetuating a sexist double standard, that doesn't make it okay for you to then perpetuate the fuck out of the sexist double standard.

J Crew has a magazine?
