A question of religious observance

Richard M. Nixon

How do bald Jews keep their yarmulkas on? I've seen bobby pins used but do the bald use double-sided tape or suction cups or what?

Evander

sheer force of will

it is a dumb question

Zombot

Jew magic.
Alternatively: God's will

thorgot

there are some which are big enough to stay on without bobby pins, so i guess they would just use those

Skull Man

the divine intervention of Yaweh

Muggins

THANKS TO THE POWER OF YWH WE CAN KEEP OUR HATS ON

Evander

man, I am not kidding

I have known plenty of bald jews

they are just aware of exactly where it is sitting on the head, and it is high friction anyway, so they just do not tilt their head TOO far in one direction or another.



it is not a difficult thing

Muggins

Evander last time I wore a yarmulke I was all, "Fuck fuck is it still on? I can't tell....fuck"

ascot

welded to the skull

Muggins

Everyone knows all bald jews are bald because they got a surgery so their head IS a yarmulke

Sometimes I regret posting in a stupid thread
because then you get the orange/blue blob thing and I can never help myself from checking the threads with the blob and then I'm all "ugh yeah, I just posted in that shitty thread one time"

I was hoping to market a line of kosher suction cups. My dreams are shattered once more.

Zombot

I never had a problem wearing yarmulkas.
It's a very simple science.
1. Grab yarmulka.
2. Put on head
3. Profit

Because they are different.

did you know some catholics believe that if a baby dies before it's baptized its soul turns into a butterfly?
I had this argument with a friend of mine a while ago about it and it went around in circles for hours

I maintained that it was a cautionary tale, to get your child baptized early cause if you don't it will never enter heaven.
while he said that it was getting a second chance, returning to nature cause it's innocent.

and I was like nobody's innocent cause of original sin, and animals don't go to heaven, so it would live for another few days then disappear forever.

and he couldn't grasp it, and I told him not to worry cause it was all weird bullshit anyways.

I find religious dogma so fascinating.

I taped velcro to the inside of my yarmulke so it sticks to my hair

it's a really big one, too, so I never have problems with it falling off

Skull Man

guys I tried to copy-paste zombot's squares and they vanished

I heard about double sided tape once.

I think the general idea is once you get old enough to get your bald spot for your yarmulke rockin, you've had one for so long you just don't move your head around much. I think the bobby pins are just like training wheels for young jews.

I don't think that's true at all. Since two years ago, Catholic teaching was that unbaptized babies just go to limbo. Since benedict changed it, the policy now is that unbaptized babies might be accepted by god in heaven, because baptism doesn't actually work to take away original sin anyway.

I dunno man, I think you've committed the mistake of assuming there's any kind of internal consistency to religion.

Petition to have it changed to if an unbaptized baby dies, it has to have a dance off with Baby Jesus to see if it can make it into heaven. Better get yo kidz sum dance skillz, yo.

I wonder how much money it would take for the Catholic Church to do it?

I like to pretend that you are just using butterfly as a stand in for "unbaptised babies" in that post.

My established role as King of the Jews of the Forum is not a thing that is in question.

If I am being challenged, though, I will take all comers, either one-by-one, on in a Jew-For-All.
