Lol, i fixed it (before posting, i think) but my phone originally put jewelry in there.
My eyeballs put the “L” back in there.

Thus recreating in spirit a classic Gilda Radner skit with Emily Litella commenting about Soviet Jewry.
“Oh… well that’s different… never mind!”
And this convo belongs in the misread thread titles thread. Not here.
Looks like @ThelmaLou misinterpreted the title of this thread. ![]()
Full disclosure: I misread Jewry as Jewelry too. And do again each time I see the thread in the list. Despite having read it.
Same here.
Oh yeah…you’re right.

I didn’t misread or misinterpret the word “Jewry” in the title myself. But if I’m looking at the word “Ashkenazi” from out of the corner of my eye, my brain subconsciously groups the last 4 letters together because they’re often used as their own word, except the effect never lasts long enough to become a misinterpreted or misread sentence.
