They were and continue to be on the "ism" flavor of the day bandwagon and just switch seats on the Titanic when they feel it necessary to conform, or lead the masses further astray.

There never even even was a deep end for them to jump off.

They aren't even able to jump.

The end was never even that deep.

There really isn't even an end.

She clearly hasn't seen an esrog up close in years, maybe ever.

Although it's such a weird description I'm thinking maybe she's never seen any fruit up close in years. Maybe she just eats lettuce.

Some great comments though
"Last year I made a "Brooklyn lulav" with stinkweed stalks, incense sticks, and a blunt (aged wrapper), but we used an acai berry from the co-op and surely imported from far away (Greenpoint maybe). This year, we'll use a barely nibbled slice of pizza from a nearby curb. Thanks!"

I know a case where someone Missed flight cause check in crew had left already, and couldnt check bag. Same situation, flight was delayed, came an hour before the newly scheduled time, and all were gone.
