Sometimes I am deeply offended by Jewish jokes. Yet one must consider that laughter is the best medicine and after years of cruelty and pain we Jews have survived it helps to laugh at our faults, stereotypes, and faux paus.

My mother fits the description of a Jewish mother --she's loud, demanding, clingy, manipulative, etc. but she is also loving, warm hearted and cares about her family. G-d knows that she annoys the hell out of me at times but no one can replace her either. So go on make one liner jokes about my mom see if I care!
