Modi isn't being racist. That's just being funny.

I posted him doing a nearly identical set of bits over a year ago. :)

@serge @blumenberg interesting. I thought it was pretty boring. But I guess as an ex catholic I might lack insight to get the jokes.

@jnfrd

Have you been to Ashkenazi shabbat dinners? Have you been to Sephardi ones? It's pretty spot on!

@blumenberg

@serge @jnfrd I've been to ashkenazi and sephardim and what Modi describes isn't my experience at all. It's more between orthodox and conservative/liberal. Not only the duration but the passion too – at least regarding the rituals/tseremonye.

Ps. My grandfather was conservative, but coming from an (ashkenazi) orthodox shtetl community, and when he retired he became orthodox/frumm again. No erev shabbos less than 3 hours. No erev pessach less than 6 hours.

@serge @blumenberg interesting would be a better description.

With the exception of the Schmalz Hering. That’s funny Because it sounds German but means something different. ;)
