Jody Lemoine CD 🇨🇦I maintain that everyone in IT needs to know this •one• Yiddish word and use it often.
Farpotshket: Broken, because someone tried to fix it.
Iron Curtain (Chiptunes)@ghostinthenet They should also know the difference between "shlemiel" and "shlemazel". Also, using "chutzpah" is one thing with which any IT pro can't go wrong!
@IronCurtain Yiddish is just loaded with good words for so many scenarios. Farpotshket just happens to be my favourite. 🙂
Dude CanáraÃI was told that a "shlemiel" was somebody that spilled the chicken soup while a "shlemazel" was someone on whom the chicken soup was spilled!
@Canarin @ghostinthenet That is correct! Also, "chutzpah" is defined as when someone kills their parents and then begs for mercy in front of the judge on account of them being an orphan.
