    In short: Don't be a putz.




    ...by the way, the series is titled "Grace and Frankie", not "Frankie and Grace"...
    Mensch = Good guy

    Schmuck= Schmuck

    Thanks for the lesson in Yiddish.

    Nothing wrong with being a Putz in Cincinnati

    Did you watch any of the show; what do you think?

    I haven't seen the show yet. We don't have Netflix.

    WRT Yiddish... you understand the English dictionary definitions. But there are nuances that you simply aren't grasping.

    Probably just as well. If certain mods on certain sites that will remain unnamed ( and note I said "sites" not "site" ) really, truly understood what those words meant...

    WRT Cincinnati... never heard of them before. Wonder if there's a relation between that family and the MLB ball player, JJ Putz? (His name is pronounced, officially, "pootz" not "puhtz" so I don't think the name came from the same source)
