…And you think our Gedolim our bad

You can hardly hit up the Jblogsphere without running into 10,000 complaints about the “Gedolim”. The Gedolim, for anyone not in the know, are Rabbis who are considered very great and authoritative by some people, but not by others, whose level of authority changes depending on who you talk to.

ARE YOU THE VICTIM OF A NARCISSIST?

Have you built an entire identity around being a victim? Are you compulsively unable to stop from rehashing every petty detail in your life and blaming it on someone else? Have you had an affair with a married man who stayed married even though he told you he was going to leave his wife and [...]

The Invisible Woman

“I am an invisible man. No, I am not a trace or a special effect. I have at least a physical referent. I have bone and flesh and sinew and gristle. I have angers and passions… I am invisible, then, not because of some accident of biology, some genetic mishap, but because of a peculiar [...]

Right now I’d bet on Shas which is the last leg under Olmert’s toilet coalition and whose [...]

Blogger Hysteria over Sex Abuse in the Orthodox Community: “Won’t Someone Please Think of the Children!!!”

These days nothing gets the assorted idiots of the Jblogsphere wound up like another accusation of child abuse against a Rabbi or a Rabbi making a statement that in some way or form maybe possibly minimizes the full seriousness of child abuse which is an issue we should be occupied with 24 hours a day [...]

Hi Everybody, I’m a Duplicitious Frummie

Yeah me, I’ve finally arrived. I always wanted to be a duplicitous frummie ever since I fell asleep listening to my first Lipa CD while dreaming of writing a Gedolim biography. Now somebody give me my freaking Lexus and give it to me fast, I’ve got a raffle for some yeshiva to go to.

He’s Crazy But not an Antar

Meet UnMedicated Orthodox Jew, he’s crazy, he’s off his meds and he’s all about the molesters. He’s pretty much UOJ, Un-Orthodox Jew with better grammar and spelling and less anger management problems.
