The Bags at Barney Greengrass Are Too Thick

by on November 21, 2007 5

My wife and I are moving, and the buyer came to our old house three days before closing as we were clearing out. A little pushy; but it was O.K. She wanted her architect to look at the place, that was the only day the architect was around. And she brought a big bag of stuff from Barney Greengrass to smooth the way. Bagels, lox, you name it. Good food, too, but later I was noticing that the bagels were in a plastic bag that was probably 3 mills thick. That’s too heavy, a waste of petroleum. A sign of luxury, I suppose. Shouldn’t we be weaning ourselves from such piggishness?

    For the uninitiated here, Phil is using code words to describe the Jewish buyer of his home — pushy, lox, etc, and is unconsciously blaming this jewess for the energy crisis, the environmental crisis, and the class divide.

    Phil has a point here- 3 millimeters of plastic!!!

    This shows Phil's insightfullness and attention to detail.

    I hope he pointed out this gross over-consumption to the meth addicts that were painting his house.

    Ha! Funny ReMax2. Too bad Phil will never read it as he is scared to read his comments section. Right Sami?

    Well, I better tell my Mom to quit being pushy and stop eating bagels if she isn't going to convert to Judaism. Just who does that goy bitch think she is, shattering the brilliant stereotypes of people like ReMax.

    So, Phil, how long have you hated Jews etc etc (yawn) there's valid criticism and then there's (yawn) etc etc new anti-Semitism (barf)

    3 mm! You could use those bags to bulletproof your underwear. What, were the bagels schmeared with ebola? Was there a biohazard symbol printed on them?

    Perhaps you meant 0.3 mm. You're only off by an order of magnitude.

    Ah, the neuroses of the leisure class. "The plastic is too thick! They're killing us! Hey, this is good scallion."
