Rickler sends us this little gem to lighten the mood on a wonderful Friday morning.
New York's Z Morning Zoo radio show has a little comedy skit they call the Phone Tap. Basically they have listeners set their friends and family up for various different phone pranks. This has been done a million times over, but let's just say that when the victims are old school prejudice Jews, hilarity ensues!
After listening to this, you can see why there is no hope for humanity so long as these types of religious people exist. These are the kind of people that will smile to your face and then jab an ice pick in your back. While I find the skit hilarious, it truly is disturbing how intolerant and controlling the father is. Just the amount of pressure they’re putting on their daughter and the complete lack of trust in her is startling.
I'm sure Mohamed is just enjoying every minute of this one :) But I ask you this. How would your family feel if you brought home a blond-haired, Christian bikini model that likes to occasionally drink, smoke, and owns a dog? I'm sure they would welcome her with open arms :)

You know, I try really hard. I try to think that people are able to live up to their better natures. That there really is hope for humanity.
“I don’t marry them, I don’t kiss them…are you crazy?”
Sometimes I wonder.
Does it tick anyone else off that at the end of the segment they write the whole thing off as “family tradition is very important”?
Id tell my family to fuck off and die.
In a car accident.
Happend to me once:D not the phone tapping thing, but the jewish girlfriend.
Not only do they write it off as “family tradition”, neither the daughter nor the dj’s say ask why is the boyfriend’s race important. They apparently don’t see a problem with the attitude, it’s only funny because the family goes nuclear.
If those were my parents, I’d be far to ashamed of them to purposely display the heights of their ignorance on the radio.
Perhaps it was scripted or at least planned. I hope so.
I do think that this was the conversation that happened over the weekend before the Jewish girl I dated in college before she told me we couldn’t date any more. I guess I’m about as kosher as an italian… though I like the kosher as a Christmas Ham line my roommate had better.
Its funny only until you realize that this is more common than we’d want to admit.
You know, her parents never even considered that he could have been an Italian Jew; she never said “I’m dating a Roman Catholic guy.”
It’s terrifying how many assumptions people are willing to make off a simple description, and also raises that whole Jewish “race or religion” question that’s been discussed here before.
They should have made it look like she was hooked up with a Palestinian Muslim! That would be much funnier.
Or a Nation of Islam black guy.
Religion can turn an otherwise intelligent animal into a colossal idiot.
respect and obey your parents, until you’re smart enough to think for yourself…. (then reevaluate)
“”ow would your family feel if you brought home a blond-haired, Christian bikini model that likes to occasionally drink, smoke, and owns a dog? I’m sure they would welcome her with open arms”"
no prob, but i wonder how the would react if I came home with a girl in a long black dress, who demands i go with her to church every morning, pray four times a day, chuck out the TV etc etc.
I loved to hear the dad’s responce when he said christianity is the right religion “Accept my thruth or die!” this is great, most kids don’t get advance warnings like these to move out of the house.
Heh, as funny as it is, it’s also sad. They are poster children for religious intolerance and they show beyond a shadow of a doubt why if we are going to survive as a species religion MUST be either wiped out or moved from a singular focus in peoples life to a secondary thing. As long as people believe and live this strongly in their religion we will have crap like Iraq.
