Talk:Tel Aviv

I read it twice and I still don't get the joke about lumber jacking. Usually I get it after a bit. Still a good article, I like it. :) Sylvester Gold is a Fruity Little Fairy! 12:05, 11 Arche 2020 (UTC)

Oh, that's a reference to the Lumber jack article, which is a reference to lumberjacks being crossdressers, per Monty Python. I'm impressed you got the rest of the jokes. That indicates wide-ranging knowledge (and an ability to use Google Maps). CG098 (talk ☼‎ contribs) 16:54, 11 Arche 2020 (UTC)

Oh, I haven't read the Lumber jack article yet. That "wide-ranging knowledge" thing is definitely true, though (cough cough). (off topic, but I don't get the "Eretz Israel" joke)

The joke on Eretz Israel was just that it's bigger than Israel. In ancient times, the term sometimes referred to an area that is larger than present-day Israel. The reference to Yazidism was a result of not doing rigorous research. Zoroastrianism and Hinduism were more facetiousness. CG098 (talk ☼‎ contribs) 19:34, 11 Arche 2020 (UTC)
