Hilarious
I'm Jewish. I grew up in apartments. When something needed fixed, you called the super.
My Gentile wife simply doesn't understand the plight of the Jewish "handyman". -

SO True...Extremely funny!
I laughed so hard!!! I swear Modi was talking about my husband! and a buddy of his was the knoweldgeable non-Jew...right down to "I'll tell you who you SHOULDN'T use...!"

very funny
atleast when we make fun of ourselves it makes sense, I think that's why it's funny because we can relate to what he's saying!

Why, oh why, oh why, is anything that mocks Jews getting an automatic funny pass" Say this about any other group, and it will fall flat? Did you notice where people laughed? The Russian humor got some noise, but the jokes re "Jew" brought the house down.
Now why, is this on Aish? No, it's not cool to hate yourself. It's boorish. Well, its one way for Jewish humorists to beat an easy path to success: make fun of the Jew is self deprecating stlye, and you'll have it made. It fulfills latent antisemitism in a most acceptable fashion! -

universal commedy or agony
he he he thought we (in Africa) were the only victims of poor contractors, seems like it is a universal experience only replacing Russian immigrants for Angolan or Congolese contractors ...still getting used to the novelty of somwhat ¨wavy¨walls. Thanx for the laughter.

Great Sense of Humor!
Ignore the Russian offensive stuff. I am Russian and have been involved with Second City in Chicago. Modi you are very funny. Who better than to make fun of Russian Jews than an American Jew with a Russian background! Keep up the good work and let us know when you will be in Chicago.

(23) Eli , September 21, 2006
I think the bit about the russian jews is very offensive and NOT funny. To make fun like that is evil and a sin.

I can relate to just about everything he says about contractors and trying to find someone working at Home Depot.

FUNNY!!!
I may get well since they say a good laugh produces endomorphins (or something) that is good for you. I should be in perfect health if I keep watching. He is great!

I Married the One Jewish Boy Who Fixes Things
The contractor he worked for (another Jew who was a commodities broker before making aliyah) payed my husband to take an Arabic course so they could both know what the Arab workers were saying. Shortly after finishing that, he found a job at Machon Lev, a yeshiva/technical college, and became part of a maintenance staff of religious Jewish guys who all love fixing things. Modi, if you come to Israel, maybe we can find you a kablan (contractor).

This guy, Modi, is so funny!!! I almost got a stomach ache from laghing so hard. My parents are Russian, so that part is funny. And Modi is telling the truth! I mean, the only time my father steps foot into Home Depot is on Sukkos and he has no idea how to describe what he needs!
(60) sarah , August 12, 2008
OMG!! Does this guy have a DVD or something? He totally rocks! I was laughing so SO hard.
(59) feastguy101 , May 20, 2008
Alright!!!
Jewish comedy rocks! The Home Depot scene: too awesome!
(58) Esther de Nes , January 15, 2008
I have watched this sketch by Modi atleast 100 times, cannot get enough of it! In these depressing times,please let us have more videos by him. I am from Holland and the Dutch are not really known by their sense of humor...
modern cabaret mostly consists of dirty language and swearing - so please give me Modi!!!He is so wonderful!
(57) Pinkala , May 24, 2007
Very funny.
Home Depot episode was funny.
