June 21, 2010 4:00 am at 4:00 am #865490Dr. PepperParticipantmoishy asked for “interesting and/or funny stories”. Funny Shidduch Stories is a subset of interesting and/or funny stories.
I felt that if he wants to have a good laugh while waiting for others to post interesting and/or funny stories he could start there.
Here’s one-
One Erev Shabbos, my brothers and I went to visit a former neighbor who was not Frum and wasn’t doing to well physically. He had recently moved to an upscale non-frum neighborhood and they weren’t used to seeing Frum people around.
After we wished him a Gut Shabbos and left a neighbor came running out of his house and said “were you just here for Steve?” after we nodded yes he started crying, “I can’t believe it, I just saw him and he looked so good, I can’t imagine how it happened so fast, oy, his poor wife and kids…”. We had no idea what he was talking about until he asked where the hearse is.
We then realized that there is only one time when he sees frum people in suits. He then warned us that if we ever pull that prank again we had better be wearing ties with Mickey Mouse on it so that he knows we are not the real ones.

June 25, 2010 3:42 pm at 3:42 pm #865494Dr. PepperParticipantA large bank was laying off many employees, including the person that was supposed to remove all the employees from payroll.
This employee went back to her native Japan and the minute her “paycheck” was deposited she had it transferred to a local bank.
18 months and $20,000,000 later the bank caught on that something happened. They quickly stopped the payments and created a team to collect as much of the money as possible.
They called one guy who was furious and was giving them a hard time, he said the money was all spent.
“What did you spend all that money on?”
“A second home and a luxury car.”
“Well, we might have to confiscate them.”
The guy burst out laughing so hard he couldn’t talk. After calming down he explained that he just got divorced and his ex-wife got the other home and the new vehicle “so you’re welcome to take the title of both of them if you wish”.
(I heard this story from the vice president of the department that was supposed to collect as much money as they could.)

Fine, so the next day the man proudly said that he looked in the spice cabinet and put in a bit of this and a little bit of that and it came out delicious!!! and its all gone, see husbands can cook too….then he pointed out a certain spice and said “I don’t know what this one is but I put in a lot of this and it made the cholent so goood-what is it by the way?” Her answer?-“oh that, thats the fish food (dried up worms)yeah the bottle does look like a spice container…” YUM!
July 30, 2010 2:57 pm at 2:57 pm #865497Dr. PepperParticipantBack when I was a counselor at camp we went on a trip to an amusement park. We went on the water rides in the afternoon since that’s when the lines were shorter.
As you can imagine, I wasn’t fully dry by supper and when I tried to walk I was in lots of pain.
When the head counselor announced that “Bunk Yud Beis” should follow their counselor to the bus I stood up and told my bunk to follow me. A few second later the whole camp is roaring in laughter. I turn around to see my twelve campers waddling behind me like a duck family. The ringleader said “you did tell us to follow you, right?”
July 31, 2010 6:14 pm at 6:14 pm #865498PosterMemberSince I live in very American neighborhood in Israel I didnt really pick up Hebrew. Once I had to go to a certain specialist, I had to give him a very specific message as to why I was told to come to him. In the examining room only the patient is allowed so my husband could not come in with me. The whole way in the car my husband dictated what I should tell the specialist. I practiced and practiced so that it would come out sounding natural. I was very nearvous not to mess up. I got into the doctor and I started my speech, the doctor interjects, “I speak English!” in a perfect American accent. (probably made an Aliyah)
October 26, 2010 5:08 pm at 5:08 pm #865499blueberrymuffinParticipantMy mother tried to use her credit card one day and didn’t know why her access was being denied (after all-she had paid all her bills!). So she quickly called up the credit card company. Turns out, an employee in one of the stores she shopped in, had gotten hold of all the credit card numbers that were used in that store and was using them for his own benefit. As soon as the store got wind of this, they stopped all these credit cards. B”H this employee hadn’t yet used my mother’s card so she didn’t lose any money! Also, the funny thing was that the company refused to divulge in which store this incident happened because the owner of the store had also suffered major losses in the same manner as his patrons!!

April 4, 2012 3:08 am at 3:08 am #865501OneOfManyParticipantLast week I was walking down 34th St. and suddenly I felt someone tugging on my backpack like they were pickpocketing me. I whirled around and was about to punch them in the face…and the dude hands me a missionary pamphlet. I’m sure the look on my face was priceless… 😛
