I don't understand. Are you making a joke on the word play? Or do you mean Anti-Semitic comments?
Semantics (from Ancient Greek: σημαντικός sēmantikós, "significant") is the study of meaning. It focuses on the relation between signifiers, like words, phrases, signs, and symbols, and what they stand for; their denotation.
Antisemitism (also spelled anti-Semitism or anti-semitism) is prejudice against, hatred of, or discrimination against Jews as an ethnic, religious, or racial group. A person who holds such positions is called an antisemite.

I thought it was obvious. I don't know, maybe it's one of those jokes you have to be Jewish to get. We're guilty for having a lot of those.
The Jewish family is having a large dinner involving several generations and branches. A minor disagreement between two brothers finally erupts into a major argument. One of them grabs a knife from the table and starts to stab the other.Quote: darkozI don't know, maybe it's one of those jokes you have to be Jewish to get. We're guilty for having a lot of those.
Their mother screams, "No! Not with the bread knife!"
Is that what you had in mind?

Yeah, that's one. Then there are the more obvious ones.

What' is a Jewish girl's favorite wine ?
When are we going to Florida ?
Quote: darkozAfter reading the back and forth about the Martingale system in another thread, I am convinced the real cause of disagreement is semantics between the math people and non-math people. A lack of understanding due to one persons intended statement and the literal (but incorrectly understood) reading of the arguments.

I looked at this twice, first going, "uh-oh, where's the issue for the banhammer..." and then I laughed my tuchas off.
I gotta tell you, I didn't think that particular argument was survivable for either of the opponents. Had my finger on the trigger, brushed over a couple of on-the-edge comments, and (for the moment at least) don't have to do any whacking. Glad they got through it intact.

Bagels.

Whitefish salad. Smoked salmon. Pumpernickel bread. Brisket. Reubens. All to die for!
I take it from this post that perhaps my earlier quip came close to meeting the standard that darkoz suggested: jokes that you have to be Jewish to get. Except that I'm Gentile. And kind too.Quote: RSDo the Jews like bread or something?

Bagels are the only holey bread Jews will eat
EDIT: Bagels and donuts!
I suppose you could count Pizza too since we absolutely worship that!
