just a little bit of a tip.. try shortening your comments.. my 1 year old was banging on my head, so i just read the last line. So heres an even better tip, you should have just written the last line.
–Mendy

We have a saying in our soul to the people we love we just say it really loud. “MENDY WE LOVE YOU”

Love it!

Funny is funny bc it is! Laughing at ourselves is great therapy. Keep up the holy work Mendy!

PLEASE!!!!!

There is no person alive who does not have their own issues. There is no relationship that does not have areas on which work could be done and it is all too often that those in complete denial are those who are in the greatest trouble! The sooner MORE people get personal and/or relationship counselling, the better. The more we destigmatize issues that require counselling or destigmatize seeking assistance for mental illness, the healthier our communities will become. Humour brings light and diffuses tension in many situations. Miriam Adahan in her brilliant EMMETT (Emotional Maturity Establilshed Through Torah) books even… Read more »

missing the point
March 7, 2012 2:03 am

I think the point here is that when you get into a quarrel with your spouse, maybe you could think about it in a humorous way, and realize how often times it’s ridiculous sounding and then you might chill out a little when a real situation comes up.

4 u or not 4 u?

Well it sure is good that Mendy has a preview, so if it’s too funny for you, you know that it’s not for you and you wont attend. Yes, it’s actually very healthy to bring humor into problems. But, if it’s not for you, don’t go, and let us enjoy.

wow, it’s so embarassing that Jewish people are speaking to each other this way–(about the comments, not the video). everyone has their own opinion…
i’m sorry i had to say this.

funny!

advice for # 3
March 5, 2012 10:49 pm

I think adding a sense of humor to your repetoire would do wonders for your marriage.

#3 Do you have any kids?
March 5, 2012 7:42 pm

You and your wife (or vise-versa) should start thinking more about the kids and less about yourselfs. That is the main problem.
Enough about both of you, why don’t you feel the pain that both of you are causing your kids, so destructive and insensitive. you both made a promise to each other for better or worse. just work it out, and move forward.
Happiness will come and the pain will turn to joy again.

B”H
to 6, 9 and 10 are you marriage counselors, writer 3 needs compassion and you are ripping him/her

to the responses to 3
March 5, 2012 9:51 am

i do strongly believe that unless you have problems with your sholom bayis and are going to counselling you have absolutely NO right to respond to 3, let alone make fun of him, this is painful stuff and none of your right to judge unless you go through it, ppl, how could we screw your head back on right??
no im not #3, and bh i dont have sholom bayis problems, im just a little bit more sensitive..

Hi!
March 5, 2012 7:13 am

Maybe people just need to laugh a little.

NUMBER 3
March 5, 2012 4:09 am

Does it come naturally to you or do you try to be obtuse (look it up). So we cannot make jokes about Rabbis (I am one so it is offensive to me) we cannot make jokes about hypocondriac Jews (because some people really are sick) we cannot make jokes about the Irish, Satmar, or your mother in law (because she might really be a mother in law). Crawl out of your politically correct cocoon and get a life. This was a funny video – I only wish I could see the tour.

Anything you can’t joke about is a serious problem…

nice!
March 5, 2012 12:54 am

What i love about this video is that when the couple sees Mendy has issues, they become friends! they look at each other thinking, “what is wrong with this guy?”

It's funny even if you need counseling
March 4, 2012 11:53 pm

laughter, at the end of the day, is the best medicine

One of the best solutions to many sholom bais problems is to take them with humor.

lololololololol

March 4, 2012 9:53 pm

I totally dont get this video. What is the point of it?

Sholom Bayis is no Laughing Matter
March 4, 2012 9:13 pm

Those who need counselling don’t find it funny. This serious topic should not be joked about.

LOL

Pellin is funny!!!!!

love it!
