So original it hurts

In which I steal a page from Sholom's book. I'll admit it, I'm lazy.

Recent Google searches that have brought people to my blog (now with 15% more snarkiness):

- Friar, Yiddish.

Oh so close. Alas, my knowledge of Yiddish is less than exemplary, something which would no doubt be mourned by my Hasidic, Misnagdic and dirty Commie ancestors alike. I do, however, enjoy being cursed out in Yiddish on wikipedia by angry haredim for having besmirched their precious rabbis' honor (by, you know, actually mentioning things they have done that have impacted the secular world- oh, and backing them up with heretical links, like Haaretz and the New York Times).

- "concrentation" camps.

I don't even know what this is. Presumably it's where people are killed and their bodies used to make concrete. I'm pretty sure they mentioned this at the Museum of Tolerance once.

- "has zion oil actually struck any oil".

It depends what you mean by "actually". Have they found oil? Yes. Are they yet at the point where it's anywhere near profitable? No. Do they continue to ask for investment money? Yes. Does this prove that one should make multi-million-dollar business decisions based on inaccurate Bible translations? As long as you know plenty of idiots who will keep investing in you.

- "lazer brody abraham martial art".

Abir Warrior Arts: Just when you thought the Kabbalah Center was as stupid as psuedo-historical Jewish mysticism could get. The only thing that's better than Lazer's love affair with these guys are the great pictures of the old blind men flailing swords around and the questionable linguistics and history the Abir guys use to prove they aren't full of crap- like, did you know that the word "Samurai" comes from "Shomer"? It all makes sense now, doesn't it? Sure it does, if you've got a brain tumor.

- "herouxville rules".

Yes, they are stupid and patronizing. Yes, in theory it's a quasi-decent idea. Yes, that one dude who they kept quoting really doesn't know when to shut up. No, I don't want to visit.

- "ovadia yosef dna witness rav".

Tonight on a very special CSI...
