Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Our local Rabbi recruited a non-Jew to the synagogue baseball team (apparently: this is allowed in the league). However he has a habit of repeating the same "joke" every time.

"All Jews step forward"

Turns and looks at the non-Jew.

"OK you can come too".

Every time, in a very non-jokey tone, even after she told him it bothered her and asked him to stop.

Am I alone in saying WTF? I mean this seems mean, rude, and prejudiced. Also doesn't that count as shaming someone?

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I would think so, but then, I'm an atheist in the deep south, so I might be specially sensitive

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Am I alone in saying WTF?

No. That's ... odd. I can kinda see how he might think it was funny once or twice, but once the person told him it bothered her, there's no reason to keep doing it.

Always Anti-fascist!

There's a little Michael Scott in your rabbi. Oh, that's what she said.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

During timeouts Sara says, "I want a new mommy."

You can tell I'm not cut out to be a parent, as my instinctive response to this would be "well, let's go take a look around the orphanage!"
