Gullibility

By Danny Saunders · January 21, 2010 · Around Town


Overheard at Shomrei Shabbos after last minyan ma’ariv:

Man in oversized yarmulke without a hat: “Gleib nisht ales vus men farkoift dir; di vest noch veren an apikoires.”

(Trans. Don’t believe everything you’re told. You might yet end up a heretic.)

Now that’s critical thinking for you — Borough Park style.
