First the wisecracks:
This one came off a poll on a chassidish (Chabad) friend’s blog.
What does chasidish mean to you?
_ Rabbeinu Tam’s tefillin
_ Farbrengen’s
_ Smashed hat
_ late shacharis
_ lot’s of alcohol
Another chassidish friend (Kalisch) told me: C’mon, in your Young Israel, you can do this in the beis medrash?
“This” was dancing on the tables at a Purim seuda.
Seriously speaking, I’m not chasidish so I only know chasidus through the sefarim and if people live that way it must be amazing. It’s all about kirvas elokim.
…and l’chaim. 🙂
