So it's over already. But what gives? Are we just too big to say we're sorry?

We were all fasting and were too weak to type.

One of the partners bought all the gentiles free pizza for lunch yesterday. So thanks, atoners, from me, too.

I'm sensing a pattern here. My nominally Jewish girlfriend ordered Chinese food. No pork but we did have shrimp.

Jewish people be drivin! (on other nights, I mean)

My oldest cousin decided to binge eat, and said during passover we should eat nothing but leavened bread. She said, logically, why should we have to suffer like our ancestors? We should celebrate!

You're really abusing your semitic looks, you know.

two years pass...

So does anyone know of any last-minute, no-reservation-required Yom Kippur events in NYC for Jews that aren't very Jewy but don't want to feel like complete non-Jews by doing nothing?

i had a rosh hashanah dinner to keep the guilt at bay.

are you fasting?

― s1ocki, Thursday, 9 October 2008 17:21 (seventeen years ago)

You could try not eating. . . (xpost)

― Cars That Go Boom (mehlt), Thursday, 9 October 2008 18:05 (seventeen years ago)

nope, not fasting

― Everything is Highlighted (Hurting 2), Thursday, 9 October 2008 18:06 (seventeen years ago)

i'm upset that i don't get the day off, even though i wouldn't have gone to services or fasted. i feel like ludacris in crash.

until last year i lived across the street from a yeshiva with a big paved-over yard and they would do the chicken ritual right outside my window and it was fairly nuts.

one year passes...

Vaguely considering attending this:
http://www.ohelayalah.org/
(ticketless, fundraising-free yom kippur service in Park Slope)

I could actually walk there from my place in about 30 minutes.

Might end my fast Saturday night by going to Camden Yards in Baltimore for Baltimore Orioles versus New York Yankees baseball!

― curmudgeon, Friday, 17 September 2010 14:14 (fifteen years ago)

I'm in NYC next week for a few says. Do 'frum' shops and restaurants open between Yom Kippur and Succot?

― Daniel Giraffe, Friday, 17 September 2010 14:26 (fifteen years ago)

I don't know? I've never noticed anything being closed during this time, but I've never lived in a particularly frum area.

― Ground Zero Mostel (Hurting 2), Friday, 17 September 2010 14:27 (fifteen years ago)

Only a half-day off for Y.K. this year. I might put in some extra time, anyway, though.
