My sister is going on a Birthright trip. Our father's side of the family is Jewish.
- Sister: Well, it's interesting. If you are half-Jew, and it's your dad, they just ask you if you think of yourself as Jewish or not and if you think of yourself as having jewish identity. Even if you haven't had a bat mitzvah. I mean, they asked me if I was involved in anything like, Jew clubs, Jewish anything. Did I ever observe the Holy Days, etc.
- Me: "I directed Fiddler on the Roof? I lived across from the campus Hillel for 2 yrs? I've had Manischevitz before? I love Woody Allen?"
- Sister: I can't believe i'm going to be in Israel in a week. Also, isn't it Hannukah?
- Me: HAHAHAHA. You crappy Jew. First of all, it's Hanukkah. Second of all, that jawn gonna be over before you get there. It started last week.
- Sister: Yeah, I'm a sucky Jew. I don't want to get called out on my lack of Jew knowledge.
- Me: Make up what you got for Hanukkah now and how many friends of yours threw latke parties. Get your story right, now!
