    Food holidays are my favorite holidays, and also because of Jon Stewart, I irrationally appreciate the abundance of Jewish holidays.

    Which Jewish holidays should I celebrate?

      Well the problem is that Passover has the best food, but it’s also celebrating a genocide, so I don’t really have a good recommendation.

      Purim maybe? It’s mildly less stupid than the others since it’s actually based on something that really happened? But it’s still based on an arranged marriage, so even that’s kind of fucked up. I don’t know. The Bible is ridiculous.

        Isn’t Hanukkah another battle victory one?

        I know it has the menorah, but isn’t the reason the menorah was a miracle that they had just defended themselves and the oil got destroyed or something like that?

        Dang, yea, the Bible is a terrible mess.
