Dirt Lawyer: If it’s possible to get horny for schmalz herring, that’s what I’ve got.

Y: … actually the folks like Shpitzel have more in common with Avroham Avinu than you do. Like Avroham Avinu, they think for themselves; identify their parents’ irrational beliefs; are, in response, threatened and dealt with by community forces; lose their families and get uprooted from their native communities.

Insider: How does studying one’s work a thousand years after their death make one’s life happier while still alive? Does the future effect the present in some reverse tense?

J.: How did (Orthodox Jews) become representative of Judaism as a whole? Why are they speaking for all of us?

kafhakela: Tell me, in your beis medrash, among the thousands of sforim, is there one, even one, written by a woman? איז וואס האקסטו אין קאפ!
