Both of these seem like the kind of jokes for which Tim Watley, the dentist on “Seinfeld,” converted to Judaism. ("And this offends you as a Jewish person,” the priest asks Jerry, to which he responds, “No, it offends me as a comedian.")

Jon Regardie, the Downtown News editor who penned the piece, is Jewish if that matters.
