Two Faced Oorah Boy

oohrah-ad-billboard.jpg

Last time we checked the Oorah billboard in South Williamsburg, it was to note the digital graffiti and alterations making the boy look more Hasidic. We’ve checked again, and it looks like the boy has given up on the old look, and peeled off the digitally altered, more Hasidic looking face like some sort of party trick. According to a local, the new text in Hebrew Yiddish reads “Happy Purim.” Somebody in Williamsburg is having too much fun in Paint Shop Pro.

  2. Update: Orthodox Jewish blog Voz Iz Neias http://www.vosizneias.com had the scoop two weeks ago, noting that Oorah has apparently been saying “freilichen Purim” “behind their backs for the last few months already.”
