Less about me, how about you guys?
How was your Purim? Everybody enjoyed Purim?
Yeah?
This Purim actually, I woke up in the morning
and the bell rang
somebody was at the door
I wasn't expecting anyone
but I opened the door and it was a friend of mine
he came with his Shalach Manos and his costume
and I'm like, oh, I didn't realize we're that kind of friends
I thought we were like,
argue about sports on Shabbos kind of friends
not so much...
but I totally also prepared a Shalach Manos for you
how about you just hold here right one second
I'm going to run to the back
and pick out the one just for you
so you just wait here about five minutes
until I compile together a Shalach Manos
that doesn't look like I'm cheap
but also I don't want to spend too much money on you
so thank you...
and what's with the costumes?
you know it used to be the nineties
or before that even
people were doing very creative costumes
Achashverosh, Vashti, Esther, Mordechai, Haman
and they got creative within that
a clown, sometimes a prince, a princess
then it kind of moved on
to TV characters or superheroes
you had Batman, Superman, Robin
or whoever was out there during the nineties
today, you walk down the street, you won't recognize
everybody's dressed up like somebody else
it's crazy
I saw somebody who just had an underpants costume
did you see this?
they bought a whole costume
to have underpants
the costume is like, I don't know, 35 bucks
underpants, you can get six for like four dollars
just buy the underpants,
and you have the whole costume
they're selling this stuff
I saw a family, they were all dressed up extremely weird
and they said, can't you tell what our costume is?
I'm like, no, maybe tell me
and they said, oh come on, you can tell what we are!
We're all dressed up the same!
The same I can tell, but what you are - no
they're like, come on
we're transgender dinosaurs
and I'm like, are you serious?
I thought you were all Vashti
I could totally see why Achashverosh
would kill your entire family.
