Semi-serious question: Why is Jesus frequently depicted with a shining heart?

That's the sacred heart, one of your more fire 'n' brimstoney symbols of the church.  It's intended to represent Jesus' divine love for humanity but actually scares the hell out of young Catholic children.

You are all welcome to come over the the Chuck / Hawk / Oleg side.  No hell, plenty of sports media jorbs, the intense fear only comes from seeing your mother's name on the caller ID, good food.

I am assuming showing Gifilte Fish as an example of good Jewish food is an Internet Chuckism

Seriously, WTF, Chuck?  Stew is probably the most Jewish of us all.  And, store-bought gefilte fish? And a picture without the red horseradish?

Here's the nightmare of my youth:

[Quality Start Machine]

I really like the gefilte fish you get in the freezer section and boil with onions and carrots.

And the horseradish with beets is awesome.

[Bort]

We had surprisingly good gefilte fish this year at Rosh Hashanah. Like good enough that everyone was baffled.
