How They Got Here: No. 10

Hundreds of people find Unpious every day, coming from many different sources. Some (we have to imagine) arrive completely unintentionally through the magic and brilliance of search engines.

Here are some of our favorite search terms that viewers used to track us down this week, with our commentary:

“quit zerah levatala”

There’s a twelve step program for that, isn’t there?

“how much time could u get for smuggling”

Up to life, but if you’re frum, expect a side of communal outrage, mass prayer, and expensive advocacy.

“how often do hasidim shower”

Not often enough, reports the B11 bus driver, not often enough.

“halacha if a pigeon shits”

It must fly four cubits and recite Asher Yatzar. Pregnant pigeons are exempt.
