A longer holiday would have let us post more Chanukah music videos and related jokes and skits. We received lots more this year and we will put the best of them in our video safe to post next year.
Last year we also banked some videos for future use. Today, on the last day of Chanukah, we're sharing just one of the funniest that we didn't get around to last year. It's a funny skit by YidLife Crisis, the comedy vehicle of Jamie Elman and Eli Batalion, in which they converse in Yiddish (with more or less accurate English subtitles - and the less accurate the funnier) in a Chinese restaurant in Montreal.
The punch line will be familiar, because it also occurred in a video that we posted on Thursday, But this skit goes farther, with funny comments on the phenomenon of Jews in Chinese restaurants on Christmas day, and the all-too-common experience of encountering rude and noisy fellow diners.
Enjoy!

I love the routine. Keep them coming. Growing up with Jewish friends and found I knew more Yiddish words, phrases than Italian! I also collect all the Jewish humor I can get my hands on.........because they tell a story. I miss all the Jewish comics from the 50s and 60s.
ReplyDeleteJewish year is 5777. Chinese year is 3777. That means for 2000 years the Jewish people had no where to eat Xmas eve.
