UPS WORKER MAKES A SHIDDICH MATCH

5/6/2014 Mendy 1 Comment

Their truck says 1-800-Pick-ups. One friendly UPS worker lived up to that ‘pick-up’ promise in a unique way. He helped a Hasidic young man pick-up a local Hasidic girl; and they’re getting married!

In this close-knit community of Crown Heights, the matchmakers (shadchanim) just got competition.
As reported on The Partial View blog, a UPS driver in Crown heights had an idea and acted as shadchan (matchmaker) between the boy and the girl, stated the Israeli website Charedim10.

The driver, while making his daily deliveries around Crown heights, got to know his customers well. One day he had an idea of matching up this boy and girl he knew. He gave each one the info about the other and within a few weeks they were engaged! Talk about fast delivery! The L’Chaim (engagement party) took place and the shadchan was there to join in the celebration.

What can brown do for YOU?

Talk Yiddish To Me (Nisht-Dirty Parody)

4/11/2014 Mendy

Jason Derulo took a sweet Yiddish melody for his recent hit. Jewbellish took it back.

LYRICS:

Bubby: Jewbellish? Ha ha…

Jewbellish with me

I’m that type with a prayer shawl

Sway side to side

First-class style with my swag, ya’ll

Is Jewish pride

Cuz I, I know what them curls need

Monroe to Monsey

Got fishstick stains on my passport

It’s bubby’s recipe

Been around the world, they don’t speak my language

But your bubby don’t need explainin’

All I need you to understand is

Will. You. Talk Yiddish to me?

Talk Yiddish to me

איינצ – וואס מאכסט א איד

צוויי – וואס טוט זיך מיר

דריי – קים אריין

And talk Yiddish to me

Ya, Talk Yiddish to me

איינצ צוויי דריי

1-2-3

קים אריין אין מיין הויז – מי גייט אויף א שפאציר

וואטש דיין שטריימעל – צו גייסט צוברעכן מיין טיר

איך האב א גיטע טשולענט פאר די עולם צו עסן

מיר ברענגט נישט דיין באבע זי גייט אלעס פרעסן

מיין באבע רעדט אידיש און מיין טאטע אויך

די ערשטע ווארט איך האב געלערנט איז א גוטע וואך

איך האב נישט סתם א מיני ווען

ס’קומט פולי לודעד מיט א בעק אפ קאם

דו, דו ביסט, דו ביסט א יאץ

און דיינע ברידער איז א קלאץ

דו, דו ביסט, דו ביסט א פערד

און דיינע מוטער האט א בערד

יאאא

Free Translation of Yiddish:

Welcome to my crib, let’s go for a stroll

Watch that streimel (alt: hat), you gonna break my door

I have good cholent (alt: stew) for my homies to eat

Don’t bring your bubby (alt: grandma), she’s gonna down it all

My bubby talks Yiddish and my dad does too

The first phrase that I learned was “have a good week” (alt: get a life)

I don’t just have a regular minivan

It comes fully loaded with a back-up cam

wow!

You, You are a yutz

And your brother is a klutz

You, You are a horse

And your mother has a beard

Oy yoy yoy yoy, oyoyoyoyoy….

what?

Talk Yiddish to me!

Bubby: What? I don’t understand

Our 7 Favorite Purim Pics

3/17/2014 Mendy

Happy Shushan Purim! Enjoy our favorite pics that are circulating the interwebs on this Hangover Day. (If you see something that should be on this list, please post the link below.)

7. This image made its rounds on Purim. I guess the clown could throw off the enemy.

6. Guess these costumes were out of season and on sale. Anything on sale is automatically Jewish, no?

5. No need to be politically correct on Purim!

4. The judges must have loved her glasses.

3. Jewbellish president Mendy Pellin sporting some cool bling bling!
2. This should probably be the uniform for those that are half soldier half yeshiva student.

1. This is just awesome! Window cleaners in an Israeli hospital (Shneider Children’s Medical Center) dressed up differently on Purim to cheer up the children. Spiderman! Yes!
