Top signs you are a Monsey Bachur/Bachurette
by Spring Valley Correspondent Momoney555

NEW reader comments


10. Occasionally, you say/hear "how's by you" instead of "how are you." No one bats an eyelash.

9. Actual sign at the coffee stand by the infamous Park and Ride ( the one near Pathmark) "We have now iced coffee." Right, instead of the grammatically correct "we now have." Somehow no one notices.

8. Fistfights break out over which pizza shop is better, Shelly's, Jerusalem, Tov, that new one by College Rd. ( yes its owned by Shelley's pizza and no, I don't know why they havent merged into one yet) etc. The Chasidish one and the ice-cream one don't count, sorry.

7. In the end you just go to Teaneck to have pizza.

6. Even if you are not of that age, you know where the current teen hangout is on Saturday nights- the
parking lot of Tov pizza. This is since last summer when Chai banned takeout on motzai shabbos. Stay
tuned, I'll keep you updated, this hangout subject to change at any time.

5. Gang wars break out over which bagel shop is better, Sammy's, Bubba's, Eli's.

4. Gun battles break out over parking spaces at the Palisades mall.

3. At Said mall, teen Chasidim are constantly seen trying to make themselves incognito as they sneak into movies to catch a little sneak peek. People-if you are going to do that, at least sneak into an "R" rated one. But Disney movies- come on!

2. Yes we really have kosher sandwiches in our 7-11, come to think of it, they probably are as gross as the non-kosher ones, but still.

1. Speaking of 7-11, the only porn magazines they have is Monsey porn - uncovered elbows and knees.

0. You go to (choose one of the following names, Blueberry Hill minyan, Congregation Ohaiv Yisroel,
Rabbi Cohen's shul) and davening actually emerges amongst all the talking.

-1. If you are a guy, that Vishnitz 11 am Sunday morning shacharis is calling your name.

-2. After you get married and put in your time in Victoria Gardens you save your money, get a little
snooty and move to New Hempstead( poor man's West Hempstead) or Forsche. Or, even better, Five Towns.

-3. Even the goyish busdrivers know hilchos mechitza, tznius, tefila, of course where "Yeshiva" is and to
drive home even crazier on Friday afternoons.

-4. They also know how to take the loooongest routes home. Is that what "as the crow flies" refers to?

-5. Pre- shabbos siren is the loudest. Ever.Take that, Flatbush and Borough Park.

-6. Actual triple head coverings and bullet proof stockings for sale (available at Stocking Exchange).

-7. When a couple who don't yet have jobs gets engaged one of the first questions asked them is "nu,
are you going on food stamps?"

-8. You put significant weight into the rumor that a Chasid owns the lot that the local strip joint is on.
And oh, yea, a Satmer girl is a waitress there.

-9. People in the crowded, ever-popular, your favorite and mine, Monsey Housewears pretend not to understand English so they don't have to move when you say "excuse me."

-10. Everything and anything sold out of a basement. I think the IRS should be told about this.

-11. You can always tell when there is a wedding at the Atrium, no, not by all the cars parked there, rather, the guests are dressed up just a little bit more than they would if they were just shopping in the Atrium plaza.

Some comments/corrections:

1) The building housing the strip joint IS owened by a Chasid.  I don't know
whether any of waitresses are Satmar but rumor has it that a stripper was.

2) The Saturday night hangout is Shelly's not Tov.

3) It's not fair to single out a single Minyan for talking too much.  There
are many minyonim I can think of that are far worse.

frum SAM ASH, T

You realize Bubbas hasn't made bagels since he opened --they're actually, poppy, sesame, garlic,
onion and everything donuts

You go to Brooklyn and realize you forgot how to parallel park

You go back to Brooklyn for Shabbos & get woken up by the same car alarms you slept
peacefully thorough for 25 years

You prefer Amnon's frozen pizza to any of the "fresh" joints-- though a fresh Shelly's pie isn't bad

You realize Tuvia's Sfeforim store is the local equivalent of Cheers--not to mention the best hang in town--it's like Eichlers with attitude

You sneer at Forshay estates where property is measured in feet vs. acres like the rest of the world

You keep on checking local newspapers to see which chassidic groups are trying to circumvent local zoning laws

You try to explain to your friends in the 5 towns why you need 3 eruvs for forshay, when until last 2 years ago the Tendler/Monsey eruv was fine

frum Dina Pirutinsky:

Heeeeey, give us a lil credit, I noticed that sign about the Iced Coffee, but doesn't it strike you as more Brooklyny?
And I think you also left out one of the most important things:
Summers are spent working at Regesh or MaTov.

frum leyobo@msn.com: A few more additions...
your car has one or more of the following bumper stickers... "My son was masmid of the week in Degel HaTorah" "I Love Camp Merockdim" or last but not least "Camp Fun"
You remember when Camp Fun was in Ring Homestead
You refuse to daven in that shul right across from your house b/c of what they did to so and so's minyan

frum leyobo@msn.com:

Not bad but NOT written by a Monseyite. (Too many mistakes, see above)
Sammy's might have the best bagels but everything else at Bubba's KICKS.
You dont speak to your friend ever since you found out that he went to Bais Dovid for elementary school
Your high school is not in Monsey
When you talk about someone making aliya you call it "skipping the country"
Your shul is supported by a rich guy who just got indicted for tax evasion and stock fraud
Half your shul went along with him

------
frum Michael_Steinhart:
Not a bad list, but I have to make a few corrections:
Number 8: The new one on College Rd. is owned by Chai, not Shelly, and if you disagree, a fistfight really will break out! Also, the ice-cream one was closed down weeks ago. Where's your fresh gossip? If you're a real Monsey bochur, you know that Bubba is buying it, after forcing the owner to break a contract with J2, and that nobody knows when they're opening up again. You also have a friend who knows the pot dealer who used to work in the kitchen and he's going to fill you in as soon as he hears something!
Number 5: There is no question, in anyone's mind, as to who gives the best bagel. It's Sammy. You know how Chaza"l used to talk about Rachav Hazona? (Kol ha'omer rachav, rachav?) I've got another ecstacy-inducing two words for you: Sammy Stix. Yummm?..
Number -2. New Hempstead is already going the way of Lakewood. Wesley Hills is the place to be in 2003! Also, it's Forshay, not Forsche -- unless that was a very clever play on words. But you can't always expect a Monsey guy to be able to write those (see number 10).
And here are a few more --
You know you're a Monsey bochur/ette if:
You daven in "Shloimy's basement" and everyone knows where that is.
You've ever heard (or set off) the Beis Yaakov "Boy Alarm."
You've ever spent Shabbos afternoon in Viola Park (aaahhh, the good old days?).
The highlight of your life is going to "New York" on a Saturday night.
You're following the serialized spy story in "The Announcements."
You've seen geese, deer, and bears on your way to shul. (And penguins!)
You've ever lied about your age so you could vote against the school budget.
And while we're on the subject -- why don't we submit a list of chasidish typos and mistakes in popular chasidic newspapers? Okay -- I'm on it. Here's a funny one to whet your appetite:
Moishe's Meats: All our cold cuts is made from orgenic meat! (I'm not making this up)
