Jewtopia

Went to hear a presentation by the authors of Jewtopia, a funny, irrverent, satirical look at Jewish culture (in America, at least). It's a "if you can't laugh at yourself, who can you laugh at?"


It's illustrated with games like:

  • figure out what's wrong with each table in the restaurant
  • match the dish with its yiddish name

and sections like:

  • how to eat like a jew
  • how to freeze food like a jew
  • Jewish conspiracy theories

...and a lot more. There were so many things there that just had me shaking my head and say, "oh yeah, that's my people."

If you've known a lot of Jews in your day, you'll get a kick out of this as well.

If you're in the Tribe, you'll love it...even the section on Jewish sexual positions (like the Challah.)
