Yiddish provided me with two of my favorite pejoratives, and one series of exclamations:
Schmuck & Putz
Oy! & Oy vey! & Oy vey ist mir!
It's a wonderfully expressive language.
Side note: I'm probably guilty of cultural appropriation when I use them...but they are just SO perfect.
It's like I am an entirely different student doing MBA stuff compared to undergrad and before. Getting stuff done days in advance and starting a project a couple of weeks before it is due. Damn adulthood planning and responsibility.
You need to tell husband to quit acting up.
Hey, you tee'd it up!

I just watched an ad for a company called bet rivers. It's a group of 20-somethings sitting on a couch, phones in hand, "watching" a basketball game. Granted, I'm not a gambler so it doesn't make sense to me at all...but NOT ONE OF THEM IS ACTUALLY WATCHING THE GAME. Bizarre. And they all cheer at the end of the commercial. How would they know something happened?

I did one of my favorite "It's not really an option but I have no idea WTF else to do" things and looked at different degrees today.
None of them would work out, since money, and nobody's hiring the new guy at 50+, but it was a good, sad little time.

Here's a screen shot of what I read from several different places to do. And a link that might help.https://www.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-smartphone-frequent-app-crashes-fix

Don't forget oy gevalt. Do you know what "putz" means? (grinning mischievously)
Oy gevalt just doesn't flow as nicely as Oy vey ist mir.
And yes, I DO know what putz means. It is an amazingly accurate description of the targeted people for the many times I have used it.
I've considered going back to get a PhD in educational leadership, but I'm not sure if I really want to go into administration and I'd have to do that for it to be worth the investment.
Most go with leather, but I know times are tough, gotta save money somewhere. Did it come with whips and a ball gag also?
Sadly no.
It was bargain basement pricing, so the chaps were assless.

I could only do something now if I were independently wealthy. Then I'm not sure I'd want to, so it is what it is.
