Happy Holiday, Jews!

December 27, 2008 by WendyB

Hanukkah isn’t over yet and I figured since I did a holiday post for the goyim, the Jews should get one too. Thanks to La Belette Rouge for pointing out this parody of Light My Candles from Rent.

When I watch one of these things, I’m never sure which makes me laugh harder — the general highlariousness of the performance or my sense of relief that I have not yet been persuaded to dance like an idiot for a YouTube video.

    I am so happy you like this as much as I do. Thanks to you I will watch this video for a fifth time. I wish this couple would remake Rent into a Yent. That would be a musical that I could get into.

    I just couldn’t bear (or is it bare?) to watch more than 24 seconds. The embarrasment I felt for them was just too much…Empathy is a bitch!

    JDS, so you didn’t get to the point where she takes a bite of the gelt and nearly drops it out of her mouth? I was covering my eyes and screaming quietly.

    It’s only a matter of time before you become one of “us.”
