To: Hebrews 11:6

As Moses’ ancestors are fond of saying, I’m just being a nudnik.

Which reminds me of a joke. Do you know the difference between a shlamiel, a shlamazal, and a nudnik?

In a restaurant, a shlamiel of a waiter dumps a bowl of soup on a shlamazal diner. The nudnik asks, Hey, what kind of soup is that?

Keep up the art!

Didn't the old Laverne & Shirley opening jingle include references (which were nonsensical to my Gentile ear) to both shlamiel and shlamazal?

So, from your joke's context:

shlamiel=careless klutz

shlamazal=hapless victim

nudnik=uncaring wise-ass
