do goyische english speakers even know how many words they use regularly are yiddish Do they even know
there’s the obvious like mensch and mazel tov and bris and kosher but also chutzpah and klutz and dreck and kvetch and tchotchke and putz and schlock and SCHLONG! DO YOU GUYS KNOW THAT ONE OF THE FAMOUS TERMS FOR DICK IS YIDDISH! what about shmuck or schtick or GLITCH! GLITCH IS YIDDISH! DO YOU GUYS EVEN KNOW THAT BAGEL IS YIDDISH
well, no, they’re loanwords. english does it all the time with all kinds of languages. café (french), bazaar (persian), and kindergarten (german) are all loanwords. it’s not stealing, because languages aren’t really capable of the malice that implies. there’s also nothing wrong with using words from or learning new languages. what really gets my goat though is when gentiles mock the way yiddish sounds while using its words without even realizing it

My gf: "I like to think Mario and Luigi are both colour blind and think they have matching outfits"
Me: *fucking losing it*
I know everyone says it’s best to just stick to “said” as a dialogue tag bc it disappears and that’s true and I mostly do but I want to take a moment for my all-time favorite dialogue tag, “lied.” Absolutely nothing hits like “‘I’m here to help,’ he lied.” NOTHING.
ABSOLUTELY one of my favourites.
Been feeling VERY down due to multiple personal reasons, so decided that best way to deal with it is to sketch encouraging stuff for other people :)8 Sol was drawn for @/solradguy and Asuka is for my bestie
