You are good people, Scrappy.
I'm going to need makeup for any employer interviews. Not for the wounds
Which is good. Really effectively covering wounds is tough work. I've realized that I *can* cover them all right now but I just don't care enough to do it daily. Slight coverage and we all just agree that yes, I've got some owies but we can mostly ignore them.
It's just ... weird. From undergrad, I was used to weird questions from people who'd never met any Jews before -- my usual attitude to those was that I'd rather answer the questions than let the people keep whatever weird idea they had. But this sort of thing is just odd. This afternoon, he asked me if I knew any good Jewish jokes, because Jewish humor is usually the best.
This is someone who's known more than one Jew over a period of time, Hil? Ew.
I just put this crazy nail strengthener on that I got at the nail place, and it burns like HELL. I swear it wasn't this bad when I've had it before. Ow ow ow.
I think you should turn to him and ask, "Is it true what they say about Catholics?" And when he tries to get you to be more specific repeat, "You know!" and make vague hand gestures.
Oy, what a putz.
Yum. Latkes.
Okay, what? That's getting freaking bizarre.
it burns like HELL
Catholic Hell or Jewish Hell?
Latkes, yum.
Dude, WEIRD. And should be discouraged from teh interactions with teh other humans.
And it's not like he's from some Jew-deficient area, either. He grew up in Hayward, California, and went to USC.

Hee!
Oh! One of the professors in our department is Orthodox, and wears a yarmulke and beard. I was working through my schedule for the next few weeks, and complained that Rosh Hashanah was making things complicated, since it came in the middle of a time when I've got like eighty things going on. This was mostly just griping aloud. He responded, "Oh, we should go tell [Orthodox professor] happy new year!"
You should ask that guy about how priests are all pervs. Or fish on Fridays. Or being anti-abortion. Um. None of those are funny. What else is Catholic??
Catholic Hell or Jewish Hell?
Prostestant hell -- the REAL hell.
What else is Catholic??
The Pope!
