Laugh a little

We all receive jokes by email, but I've found a very large collection of Jewish jokes at a website called aWordInYourEye.com.  That website's creator, David Minkoff, has given permission for jokes on his website to be reproduced here.

You know you grew up Jewish when...

You know you grew up Jewish when...
  • You did not respond to the teacher calling roll on the first day of school because you thought your name was "Princess."
  • You spent your entire childhood thinking that everyone  calls roast beef "brisket."
  • Your family dog responds to complaints uttered in Yiddish.
  • Every Sunday afternoon of your childhood was spent visiting your grandparents.
  • You were as tall as your grandmother by age seven.
  • You never knew anyone whose last name didn't end in one of 6 standard suffixes (-man, -witz, -berg, -stein, -blatt or -baum)
  • You can look at gefilte fish without turning  green.
  • You grew up thinking there was a fish called lox.
  • You can understand some Yiddish but you can't speak it.
  • You  know how to pronounce numerous Yiddish words and use  them correctly in context, yet you don't exactly know what they mean.
  • You grew up thinking it was normal for someone to shout "Are you okay? Are you okay?" through the bathroom door if you were in  there for longer than 3 minutes.
  • You have at least six male relatives named Michael or David.
