I dunno. Saying she has an ‘icicle tricycle’ is pretty fucking stupid. I think the producers assume children are morons.

This story is sad, but it confirms everything I’d already thought about Alabamans.

Shout-out for The Demolition Man (probably for the first time, ever).

Agreed. If you want something for free (and she wanted 4-5 nights free at a posh-sounding hotel over a romantic holiday), demonstrate your worth, first. What little she did say in support was ridiculous: that she noticeably and positively changed Disney-Universal’s income.

Yes.

My experience with seeing Edible Arrangements in the office is that all the strawberries and pineapple go immediately, but no one wants the melon (cantaloupe or honeydew). Nonetheless, everyone wants to think that someone will take the melon, so the fruit sculpture sits out, drying and attracting flies, for several…

The logic applies to middle eastern foods because Jews began as a middle eastern people. And in some cases, never left. Some Jews have been a continuous presence in what is now Israel for the last 2000+ years. How would that food not be theirs, too? The foods are indigenous to the area, as are the people. Jews are not…

You’re a priest?

Go fuck yourself, you anti-Semitic troll.

First of all, it was the non-Israeli author who referred to these foods as Israeli. No Israeli would use the term, Israeli Hummous. It’s just Hummous.

Nice homage to “The Shining.”

Wow! Amazing job! I was having difficulty understanding that there was a loop (despite what was said in the show), but you have shown me the light. Thank you, kind soul.

There’s nothing to say about lamb, if you are talking about Jewish Israelis. They just don’t eat it much at all. And if they do, it is in a restaurant.

Only if you have a very mistaken understanding of Middle east history.

And by your logic egg rolls, lasagna, matzo ball soup, and hummus as well are all “American” foods.

Israel is largely made up of immigrants. Many were from Arab countries. For them, “Arab” foods were their foods for hundreds and maybe more than 1000 years. These foods were theirs as much as they belonged to Arabs. Then, those people moved to Israel, taking their indigenous foods with them. While the foods may not be…

Jews have lived for centuries in every Arab and Muslim country. When they moved to Israel, people of those countries brought what was ‘their’ food. How long did they have to live in those countries for almighty you to accept that the food is as much theirs as the Arab inhabitants, and that no cultural appropriation…

I wouldn’t know. I despise regular Mogen David Concord so much I wouldn’t consider going with the ol’ Mad Dog.

Manischevitz Concord Grape and Mogen David Concord (my parents’ preferred sacramental sip) are the absolute hell-pit scrapings of the legitimate wine world. And on my parents’ table for many a years’ Friday nights. Simply disgusting.
