What does it mean to be PunkTorah? In the spirit of Jeff Foxworthy’s "You Might Be a Redneck If…"
-You’ve seriously considered taking speed in order to stay awake on Shavuot
-You only have one-night stands with girls/guys you’ve met at JCC
-Your rabbi is on your Top 8 on Myspace
-You hosted a bar mitzvah for your black, lesbian neighbor’s dog
-You think Whole Foods should sell organic gelt
-You got your "Never Forget" tattoo on Friday night after watching Schindler’s List
-You try to match up the rhythm of the Shema with your favorite Sex Pistols song
-You love the High Holidays because you get to wear your Converse high tops to Shul
-You despise bureaucracy but will join every Jewish group on Facebook
-You feel a sense of indie street cred for knowing that Brian Chase from Yeah Yeah Yeahs is also in a band on JDub Records
-You secretly admire Chabadniks because they out-drink everyone on Purim
-You’re on a never-ending-quest for a hemp yarmulke with an anarchy symbol
-Your car has "gefilte fish", Obama, and Apple stickers on the bumper
-You like going to Hillel meetings to see "how the other half lives"
-You beat the shit out of everyone at No Limit Texas Dreidel
-For the guys… if you’ve considered becoming a frum because their beards are "metal as balls"
-For the ladies…if you wish the local sheitel store had wigs in blue, green or fire engine red
And finally, you might be PunkTorah if you consider it a mitzvot to get rabbinical students stoned after they pass final exams, because those kids worked their asses off and deserve a nice vacation with Mary Jane.

I tried to submit a comment earlier, although it has not shown up. I think your spam filter may possibly be broken?
Great blog post, I’ve bookmarked this page and have a feeling I’ll be returning to it frequently.
