American 'yidiots'

It used to be that Jewish people went to services at their synagogue, or temple or, in Yiddish terminology, their shul.  It used to be that men went to daily  morning minyan (ten) services,  families went together on Friday evening, and/or Saturday mornings.  It used to be that Torah was studied and  women kept Kosher -- having two sets of dishes and silverware to ensure that dairy and meat products were not mixed.  It used to be that parents bought children new clothes for the “High Holidays” to mark the days of awe in which one repented for their sins and asked G-d to grant  another year of life.  It used to be that different kitchenware was used for the holiday of Passover, to commemorate the G-d given gift of freedom from Egyptian slavery.  For some of us that still exists, for others -- it used to be.

It used to be that Jewish mothers and grandmothers proudly referred to their offspring as a “Yiddishe cup”, meaning a ”Jewish head” or a Jewish smart way of thinking.  For some of us, that still applies, for others -- it used to be.

A “Yidiot’ is the Jewish opposite of a Yiddishe cup.  How does one know the difference?
