Not at all. But do you love men who simply *look* Jewish?

that's actually a great idea...why don't you just keep asking her if she can start a tab because you forgot your credit card/cash at home...after a while she'll find you annoying, or if not, at least you'll be drinking for free.

This is a brilliant moneymaking idea, especially in DC where 98% of the gals I meet have something seriously wrong with them. I am going to charge a fee to hang out with me. It will be a reverse sliding scale depending up on how annoyuing you are. I will send an email back as follows:

Dear Clanger

I can make myself available to hang at X tonight. For two hours of my time, it will cost you three paigowtinis plus tip and a spinach quesadilla. Any time over the two hours will require a paigowtini five minutes of snowflake stories and the cost of a cab to drag my drunken self home. You can iether pay me up front (paypal) or pay the bartender and bring cash for the cab.

Sincerely
Your rent-a-friend
Paigow

ok, just so people don't think I'm trying to say that all Jewish people are ugly and that's why I'm offended, I'm actually offended b/c I have (what I consider to be) a bumpy too large nose, and I think Paigow's friends are using the shortcut of: big nose = jewish and I think that's offensive (to both jewish people and people with big noses). I'm pretty sure there is absolutely nothing else about my appearance that would make someone think "Jewish!". I'm not exactly running around with a tattoo of a a star of david .

Really? Because in my neck of the woods "nosejob" = "jewish" that, and the diamond encrusted star of david that everyone gets for their 16th birthday. So I wouldn't presume anyone with a bumpy nose to be jewish.

I never used it on PP. Stick to topics about which you have actual knowledge.

Oh, are you two friends again this week?

It's nearly impossible to keep up.

You should be very proud.

Your post led me to wonder something. Who are the top 10 posters on LawTalkers?

So, I looked it up. And here they are:

#10 Atticus Grinch
#9 Hanki Chinaski
#8 Did you just call me coltrane
#7 Thugreed Marshall
#6 ltl/fb
#5 Mmmm, Burger (C.J.)
#4 notcasesensitive
#3 Tyrone Slothrop
#2 paigowprincess

And the number one poster, Bilmore.


Congratulations!

Quantitative or qualitative?

Quantitative of course.

The spread by the way is about 800-900 posts.

I in no way suggested that I am offended that people think I look jewish. I am offended that people seem to think it's ok to comment on my big nose by saying I look Jewish b/c they think that saying I look Jewish is more polite than saying I have a big nose. dumbass.

No, but you had said:

I think Paigow's friends are using the shortcut of: big nose = jewish and I think that's offensive (to both jewish people and people with big noses)

So, you're assuming the worst of people and that the only reason they're asking whether you're jewish is because you believe you have what others consider to be a "jewish" nose. And, obviously, you believe that to be thought to have a jewish nose is to be thought to have an ugly nose. I guess you're right. No one should take offense.

Why not just take it as a polite inquiry as to whether you're a MOT and therefore possible dating/marriage material for a jewish friend? Or get a nosejob.

Sephardic or Ashkenazi?

I didn't watch last night's episode, but I did catch Trump, the old-looking blond woman, Omarosa, Heidi and Ereka on Oprah yesterday. Man, Omarosa is a piece of work. She still insists that Ereka called her the N-word (and I believe Ereka's statement that the word is not in her vocabulary--who says that any more, other than Archie Bunker types and rappers?).

She also says that the way she appeared on the show was due to reality-show editing "consistent with the way African-American women have been portrayed on reality TV." Okay, but has there been any other African-American woman on reality TV who came across as badly as Omarosa did? RW Coral is the only one I can think of who comes close, but only in terms of bitchiness. And all the other people on the Apprentice who hated her didn't hate her because of edited footage--they were dealing with her in person. Even Trump and blond helmet-head said that she lacked credibility.

One thing I wish they'd pointed out is how dumb she looked when she tried to accuse Ereka of racism based on her "pot calling the kettle black" comment (which is only racist if you happen to be a kettle). That's stupider than the folks who freaked out because of "niggardly" a couple of years ago.

Okay, rant over.

Omarosa is about as unsympathetic as Gandia from Survivor-the-one-with-the-idiots-who-let-Brian-and-Clay-walk-all-over-them.

I can't imagine that Omarosa has any sort of future, except perhaps in a part of the world that doesn't have television or other media.

How many posts does bilmore actually have? since his post number listed on his thingy is fiction.

[Fugee]

Misc. stuff:

1. BnB and the FA: TM, Bilmore, Sidd, et al, for the love of God, stop analyzing this story or I'll have to start a religious debate.

2. With all the FA stories, I was expecting Latrell Sprewell, Esq. (an old poster from the Yahoo days who was a FA in a former life) to pop in and tell stories about torturing the "prisoners."

3. AI: I'm glad I don't have to listen to Camille's nasal off-pitch voice anymore. I didn't vote for my little red headed nephew lookalike but voted lots for George (who I like better every week), Jennifer, LaToya and Fantasia (despite the yeah yeah yeah). If these are not the final 4, there is something wrong.

4. Paigow: If you want to get rid of the stalker, apologize to your friends in advance, have several drinks before you see the stalker, and then cut loose on her. If you lack topics, I suggest you start by asking if she eats at McDonalds -- if she says yes then start in on how she is singlehandedly responsible for the destruction of the rainforest. Then move into how pigs are as smart as dogs and would she eat her dog. Have more to drink. Then insult the manhood of some random yahoo in the bar and get him mad enough to want to punch you and anyone in your vicinity. At some point insist that she kiss you. If she demurs with the excuse that she can't because she has a crush on one of the guys in your group, make her guess that guy.

5. Paigow music: It isn't new music, but if you don't have any Stevie Ray Vaughan in your collection, you are missing out on great rocking blues.

I know that you're not this stupid, so I can only assume that you want to bang BnB really badly.

Good luck.

This may come as a surprise to you, but whenever someone disagrees with you, it's not because they want to sleep with your opponent. Sometimes they just disagree with you. Using your argument, bilmore wants to bang you really badly.

Good luck.
