While accepting her Emmy, The Good Wife actress announced, “This is so good for my career.” Ms. Panjabi, you might want to take it down a notch. Trust us.
When the outsiders who are good at math not only get ahead but celebrate it—that’s when the pogroms start.

The Yankees
Posted by The Annoyed Jew
I can't quite make out that pitch... no, it's a shitball.http://whatsannoyingjews.com/2010/08/27/the-yankees/
For years, everyone (outside of New York) has accused the Yankees of excess. They buy players, networks, self-named steakhouses in their own stadium. I’ve never been bothered by it… until now.
A new report indicates New York Governor David Paterson may be indicted for his role in attending a Yankees game.
Really, Yankees, really? You gotta pile on the most inept governor New York’s had outside of a musical? What’s next, spending $424 million on free agents and then going out and winning the world series? Oh, right, that was last year.

How could three little letters be so awesomely annoying?
After years of giving doctors something to know more about than the rest of us, now DNA is trying to claim Hitler was Jewish.
That’s right—annoying and anti-Semitic. Shame on you, deoxyribonucleic acid.

Mexican bling

Why Mexican gangsters have such good pre-nupshttp://whatsannoyingjews.com/2010/08/20/mexican-bling/
Are we supposed to be impressed that the Mexican drug museum features outrageous bling like diamond-encrusted cellphones and the high fashion artillery displayed below?
Have you never been to the Hebrew Hammer museum? This is just a pinky ring!

The rainbow bulls-eyehttp://whatsannoyingjews.com/2010/08/16/prop-8-decision/
From my gay cousin Erich:
“Thanks, meddlesome lawyers. The best part about being gay was that I had the perfect answer every time my mother asked why I wasn’t married. Now I’m fair game. Sometimes, it’s good not to be like everyone else.”

Who’s Giving Us a Good Name This Week: Turks
Posted by The Annoyed Jew
Smash that glass up before you back your ass up... In Turkey, a wedding ended disastrously when the groom fulfilled the traditional ritual of shooting a machine gun into the air—and killed his dad and two aunts.
Makes the whole breaking a glass thing seem pretty tame, eh?

Paul Rudd
Posted by The Annoyed Jew
http://whatsannoyingjews.com/2010/08/04/paul-rudd/
Is there any greater ambition in life than turning Jewish man-boy Paul Rudd into a Bat Mitzah DJ?
But now that this apparently happened—in 1992!—I don’t really see the point in carrying on.
