You don't have to be Jewish to get back at the shmendriks* of the world

Yiddish. It's the most colorful language in the history of mankind. What other language gives you a whole dictionary of ways to tell someone to drop dead? That schmuck who got promoted over you? Meigulgl zol er vern in a henglaykhter, by tog zol er hengen, un by nakht zol er brenen. (He should be transformed into a chandelier, to hang by day and to burn by night.) That soccer mom kibitzing on her cell phone and tying up traffic? Shteyner zol zi hobn, nit keyn kinder. (She should have stones and not children.)

If You Can't Say Anything Nice, Say It in Yiddish is the perfect glossary of Yiddish insults and curses, from the short and sweet to the whole megillah (Khasene hobn zol er mit di malekh hamoves tokhter: He should marry the daughter of the Angel of Death.) Complete with hundreds of the most creative insults for the putzes** and kvetchers *** of the world, this is an indispensable guide for Jews and Gentiles alike. When it comes to cursing someone who sorely needs it, may you never be at a loss for words again.

Glad I chose these Sturdy, Fluffy Pillows
Color: White, Size: 18x18 Inch
Took me forever to decide which pillows to buy....Price won out. There might be better out there, but I really can't see how. They plumped up really nicely. I once learned from a manager at a big box dept store when purchasing a goose down pillow how to 'activate' the pillow. Basically, he violently threw the pillow down onto the floor, then proceeded to beat the tar out of it....That's how it's done. I think many ppl don't do a good enough job when they get their pillows. I watched several videos from ppl who have purchased this type of pillow. And quite frankly, they do not know what they are doing....My pillows are very plump and awesome. I purchased the 20" squares and then chose 18" pillow covers to stuff them into. Perfection. Fat, soft, soothing pillows. Me and my Doggo are quite happy to lounge around on these durable puffs of fluffiness.

Excellent Inserts. Great price point.
Color: White, Size: 12x20 Inch
I purchased the 20x20 first and loved them so much, I purchased these the next day. They come vacuum sealed so please do be careful opening them. It takes a little time and patience. These fluff up so nicely. I manipulated by hand a bit then into the dryer with wool dryer balls on medium heat for about 20 minutes. They are odor free which is a big plus for me and the quality is there for the price. I can't use feather inserts for anything so these are the next best I've found at this price point. I will be purchasing more and I do recommend.

Fluffy and Supportive Pillow Inserts
Color: White, Size: 12x20 Inch, Color: White, Size: 12x20 Inch
I used these pillow inserts for my couch cushions, and they’ve worked out really well. They give my throw pillows a nice full look without being too stiff or flat, which makes the couch feel more put together and comfortable. Filling quantity: They’re nicely filled and give good shape without feeling overstuffed. Durability: They seem well-made and hold their shape well even after daily use. Color: Clean, bright white that works well with different pillow covers. Appearance: They make my decorative pillows look fluffy and full, giving the couch a more finished look overall.

Exactly what I was looking for
Color: White, Size: 26x26 Inch
I bought these to fill some euro pillow covers and they worked out really well. They come vacuum packed, so at first they look flat, but once you open them and give them a little time, they fluff up nicely. They are soft but still have enough structure to hold their shape on a bed or couch, which is exactly what I was looking for. Not overly firm, but not limp either. They give that full, styled look without feeling stiff. The size is true to 26x26 and fills the covers well without looking saggy. I like that they don’t feel hollow like some cheaper inserts can. Quality feels good for the price. They are not luxury pillows, but definitely a solid option for decorative use and they hold up well. Overall, really happy with them and would buy again for other rooms.
