"don't hear Jews complaining"
whyareallusernamestakenalready
of course you cant hear them in the oven. i made mine soundproof for a reason
heterosexualsnowflake
Isn't that because a bunch of Jews died... like almost 6 million of them? I wouldn't want to talk about it either...
JustLawful
Lol that Twitter handle
JustAMinnesotaImguy
In the rural midwest, or at least my neck of the woods, many people call you out for not recognizing Christmas specifically.

Someone needs to watch The Hebrew Hammer again...

In Israel nobody even knows it's Hannukah unless they see jelly donuts.

I do nazi her point, anne frankly i am a bit confused.

We do complain about things being to hot. Especially those ovens a couple years ago.

Because Hanukkah isn't actually important to them.

1/2As a Jew, I get asked alot "Do you get offended when people merry christmas instead of happy hanukah?". I always reply merry christmas bc
YbQuinny
I might just be PC but I always wish happy holidays if I don't know the person very well
BenofBen
2/2 someone is wishing you happiness and something positive. I feel that should always be met with a positive reaction. Just my opinion
Flyndaran
As an atheist, same here. But many will say the words trying to start shit. I just ignore and move on.

Exactly! Same here! Merry Christmas.

Half the people out there celebrating xmas don't believe in Jesus, it's just a nice time of year and everyone knows what you mean.
SPCGlitterFart
(1) Can't it just be like St. Pat's, like everyone is a lil' bit Christian on Christmas? I mean, you're celebrating their holiday and all...
SPCGlitterFart
(2) I mean, it would be like if someone appropriated Ramadan and then told them to not call it that because it offends them.
thesixfingerman
Heh...I like this.
TheBIFFALLO87
"Don't hear Jews complaining" lol. What Jews do you know?
SwarthyBastard
I believe "The food was terrible... and in such small portions" is the classic. There's also a an entire book called "Kvetch."
Racinggrey
To hurt? Or hurting? Hows my Jiddisch?
SwarthyBastard
Kvetch - 1) a person who complains a great deal. 2) To complain. Also, it's Yiddish. A for effort though.
LizardEnterprises
About a war on Hanukkah, never. About everything trivial and mundane? Eh, what's a little kvetching between friends
MountainYankee

I don't know many hasidic Jewish but read My Name is Asher Lev. It's basically a laundry list of what conservative Jews complain about.
LargeHoman
Is assume none. I've never met a Jew, at least not one that told me they're a Jew. Lot of outspoken Christians though.
HornoTostador
I don't think I know a single Jew and I live 2 blocks from a huge Synagogue. Gorgeous building for sure.

Which makes it so amazing that they're not complaining about *that*.

I know 1. She complains about a lot of things. The war on Hanukkah is one of them. Vegan Jewish sjw. She's fun.

Then she's am idiot, not least because hanukkah isn't even a major holiday in the first place.
SwarthyBastard
I'm Jewish. Say whatever you want. Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Happy hanukkah.

What about go fuck yourself? I seem to get that one a lot.

As a Baptist, I like learning other religions. The MOST basic thing I think I understand of Judaism is...y'all can come over to eat, right?

Some of them actually are jews

Most of the liberal public figures are on a jewish payroll. Liberal values coincide with the preservation of any persecuted minority.

"The war on hanukkah".

A Jew here, basiclly every holiday we have is about us almost getting wiped out in some ancient war. It gets old very fast.

Monkeybatter
You guys do know Hannukah is one of the least importent Jewish holidays right?
SteveTypeRs
No... Why would I know that?
somedayiwillberelevantasfuck
Is it more importanter then spelling and grammer?
Ilnor
You realize we only know about that jewish holiday because it's near the biggest christian holiday ever
MantisTobagganMD
Easter is arguable the bigger (re:more important) holiday. Christmas is just waaay more commercial and secular
Ilnor
Easter is for kids finding eggs, noone cares about the religious reasons anymore
MantisTobagganMD
Wrong, but ok.
Ilnor
Nah, religion is soooo 1800s grow up and learn some science
RippyTheAligatorJr
But there is an Adam Sandler movie about it, so it has to be the most important.
Natsumori
Important*
MaxPowah
Nope, and most likely I'll never do
TheBasementNerd
Not to me mofo
Glidingboulder
I really dont care how important they think it is, they can celebrate it however importantly they wish, id even go if invited.

Close to 10 years ago my University delayed the start of fall term by a day because of Yom Kippur. We were all "the fuck is Yom Kippur?"

Literally something we started propping up to counter Santa.

Honestly, I'm surprised they don't get more pissy about how the Christians celebrate passover.
MantisTobagganMD
Not all Christians observe passover.

We call it Easter.
MantisTobagganMD
That's not Christians celebrating Passover. That's Christians celebrating the resurrection of the Christ.

Sure, there's a quibble, but 140 limit, man. Passover week is when he died, and it wasn't random. Dude stole the pascal lamb entrance.

Which one.
TomVeilTomVeil
Unimportant, sure, but awesome. Candles & presents, and you need to memorize like ZERO new Hebrew words. 2nd-most fun holiday after Purim.
Chreed96
Don't you have a "we killed Jesus Christ" day?
dman979
No, it's Tisha b'Av. The day when literally everything bad happened to the Jews.
chllnpart
My wife once got an empty box, and the next night got a 12 pack of pencils. At 30, she still kevetches (sp) about it to this day
whatfloatsyourboat
And Simchat Torah. I love how many Jew holidays are about getting blackout drunk
ITrainAtPewterCityGym
Well, simchat torah's not technically 'about' getting drunk, it just happens. Purim, on the other hand...
Pyroman1acal
Ah, Purim. Getting so drunk you can't tell Mordechai from Haman. Good times.
groundstatewavefunction
The hell are you talking about? I thought the commandment was get so drunk you cant tell Esther from Haman.
DagonR
It's a spectrum that you're supposed to pass all the way through and out the other side.
Pyroman1acal
I've always known it to be Mordechai from Haman. I guess depends on the company, and how much of drunkards you all are.
footfoe
There aren't supposed to be presents. That's just to make the Jewish kids not feel bad about chrismas
DankS0uls
It works
buttcreambandit
If I know anything about Judaism it's that they should probably get used to feeling bad
Corrodias
As a former Christian, you're welcome. :v
SWFaddicted2retail
They are supposed to be small presents. Like $5 or less. Tokens.

If you bitch about people saying "holidays" instead of "Christmas" or "Hanukkah" OR vice-versa, you're an obnoxious prick.

Lol, accurate description of my inlaws

Also people who bitch about saying "Christmas" are obnoxious pricks... Oh that's how it all started in the first place? well, geez.

They fall into the "Vice-Versa" category, and I agree that they are obnoxious pricks.
ProfessorDumbass
Wishing you the most happiest of holidaymas
HipHopSaint
I never understood "the war on Christmas." As a hardcore Christian, I couldn't care less if someone said merry Christmas or happy holidays
trollprozac
Me too, I just wish people left me alone when I went shopping. Just give me my change!
Gibblesmish
Both my sister and I are secular. We were leaving a drive-through and was upset by the polite window attendant saying 1/
Gibblesmish
"(God) bless you," or something along those lines. It's the same for saying "Enjoyable (Religious holiday)", they're not converting you.
HipHopSaint
Tbh if you lose your faith from happy holidays or get converted from God bless ypu, I doubt you ever really believed in what you claimed
Knapaholic
I wish everyone would just shut the fuck up about religious holidays already. They exist. Just celebrate them or ignore them.
giveitarestalready
Ignoring, or trying to.
giveitarestalready
"Celebrate or ignore" is the kind of thing that's easy for people to say when they personally don't have all that much to ignore.
Knapaholic
I don't celebrate Christmas, but I'm not gonna be a dick to those that do. Yes, you can ignore things that have nothing to do with you.
EarlGreyOrDeath
I celebrate Christmas, I like it, but if someone says "Happy Holidays" I just say "thanks, you too" because I'm not an asshole about it.
giveitarestalready
Being Jewish pretty much *anywhere* in the US during the holidays means ignoring the whole world turning into a religious winter wonderland.
KyleBeach
To be fair, if you guys hadn't have crucified the big JC he might not have gotten the ball rolling so well on christianity.

Yes. You are horrible. I am generalizing this about you and your various demographics.

Do you get upset about things advertised to the opposite gender? Or to kids? Or old people? It's the same thing. They are advertising to an
