There’s not much we as Jews can really unite under. We tend to agree that the Holocaust was bad (and so was the Inquisition) but the following issues have proved controversial in Jewish communities around the world
–the creation of the State of Israel was good
–the Armenian genocide was bad
–Women can sometimes be smart
–sexual abuse is bad
–Jesus
But I’ve got good news! Finally, there’s something we can all come together on (and it’s not Sholom Rubashkin)! It’s the Hanukkah Snuggie commercial:
I think we can all agree:
This is embarrassingly bad
AND
Snuggies are probably incredibly comfy and warm.
Next year at the GA I am so presenting a session based on this theory.
Hanukkah
Pronounced: KHAH-nuh-kah, also ha-new-KAH, an eight-day festival commemorating the Maccabees’ victory over the Greeks and subsequent rededication of the temple. Falls in the Hebrew month of Kislev, which usually corresponds with December.
