Hebonics

you want i give you hebonics ?
right now just eat the cookie and be quiet !

YES!!!!

Oy, that bunny. Another one who thinks I'm a mindreader. What plane? And no, you are not chopped liver. I know from chopped liver, and you ain't it.

Jespah, I never give me answers that are to my liking. That's why I prefer getting answers from other people. At least that way I've got a chance of liking something.

That olga is a a lovely girl, but a noodge. No one's perfect.

So I'm thinking that it's late in the season not to be gettin heat. Hey, you fahshtunkina landlord. There are laws about that sort of thing. Then it occurs to me that maybe I should turn on the radiator. Okay, so I'm not mechanically inclined. I can't turn the steenkin' valve. It's stuck in the off position. I tried oil. I tried a rubber glove. No dice.

I'm on my way out of the building and mention to the doorman that I can't turn the valve. Another man is in the lobby. A porter, except I didn't know he was a new porter. He came up immediately and turned the valve. On a Sunday no less. I'ts a miracle. Help and heat on a Sunday.

So I should be happy, right? You should all live so long. Still gotta figure out what to do about money. Still tired from walking six blocks the other day. Still working on a stinky job. You didn't really think that one good thing would make me happy, did you? The Kvetch Queen will not be thwarted. I'll kvetch no matter what.

You should all live and be well.

It doesn't matter what language that is made in. About such a sentence, there is nothing that could ever be right.

Such a sentence. It could be Hebonics porn, it is such a statement of truth.

Oy such a statement! You want to kill your mother already??!!!

Oy, my mother, I think, has come to terms with my knowing where babies come from, seeing as I will be fifty in a few years.

Dollink, from oil and rubber gloves we get bupkis.

Foist of all, that's two sentences and an exclamation. But that's beside the point.

SHAME on you pipples. Get your minds out of the gutter. Would you talk that way to your mother? A shanda.

jespah, bubbele, You know where babies come from? Did you tell anybody? You shouldn't be showing off what you know.

Many years ago when we landed on the moon, I thought I'd go get my grandmother's perspective. After all, she was around before cars, before electricty, before all kindsa stuff. She was in a nursing home and was a little fuhblungit in the head.

"Hi, Grandma, What did you think about the man on the moon?"

"There's a man on the roof?"

"No, they landed a man on the moon."

"How do you know?"

"I saw it on television."

"Did you tell anybody?"

End of conversation about the moon landing. So whenever there's something that everybody knows about save one, I always think of my grandma's question--Did you tell anybody.

So, jes, dahlink, did you tell anybody?

Who should I tell?

I gotta tell you everything. If you wanna tell somebody, tell whoever you want.

I got enough to deal with.

Well, I told RP, but I think he already knew.

He knew? That boychik is amazing. And why wouldn't he be. You wouldn't marry just anybody.

It's always something. So I'm working. I decide to rest. I lie down on the bed on my stomach. Then I can't get up. My back did something. I finally was able to move. What's next?

So it's election day. I always vote. This year I didn't pay much attention to the elections. Hey, I got my hands full here. I can't pay attention to everything. So the question is, Should I vote even though I don't know who the hell is running? Second question: If I decide to vote, will I be able to get to the voting place? I don't know why there are always all these issues. I guess I shouldn't expect that life would be easy.

Sigh. Like I said, it's always something.

I think not knowing the issues or the people is a prerequisite for some people, when it comes to voting. Here, I had to chase an overzealous election worker off my lawn last night as she exhorted me to vote.

I like the word exhorted. Is it possible to inhort, or rehort?

along party lines, you should vote...

If you wanna say inhort or rehort go ahead. How many people will know you're wrong. Don't worry, bubbele. I won't tell.

Hey, reg. Not my favorite way to vote, but it may have to do--if I can schlep to the voting place.

Sorry to interrupt your conversation, but I Googled bubbele, as in:

... because I like the term (of endearment, I'm thinking) so much.
No luck. I kept getting "bubble". No bubbeles to be found!

When you have a minute (no rush), Roberta, could you fill me in on that term? What it means & when you'd use it.
Also, how do you pronounce it properly?
I think I just might take to using it!

(to know all this stuff, you should be so lucky...)

Excellent, Region.
I will investigate!
Thank you!

Ah!

Now how do I pronounce it, please?
