This plays on the stereotype that Jewish mothers think their children are failures unless they become doctors or lawyers.

This plays on the stereotype that Jewish mothers are smothering.

This plays on the stereotype that Jewish people are demanding and particular when it comes to ordering in a restaurant.

I love how as soon as someone doesn't find a joke about race funny, it's because the joke is about race or they're "uptight", not because it's just not funny.

funny is subjective. but many people reading this thread found it funny.

Oy Gevalt.

The funny thing is that the Jewish stereotypes that these jokes play off hardly even exist anymore.

Except for the one with the two mothers talking about their sons - that one is dead on.
