PTIJ: Why can't I sing about soda on certain days?












6















Part of the weekday Shachrit includes Psalm 100, which is מזמור לתודה - a song for soda.



We don't sing about soda on Shabbat, Yom Tov, Erev Pesach, Hol Hamo'ed Pesach and Erev Yom Kippur.



Many people like soda. Some people sing whenever they eat or drink, and bubbly water is refreshing and gladdens the spirit and the esophagus. It's something to sing about. And, I know we're allowed to drink soda on all these days except Yom Kippur. (OK, I can understand, then, why it's eliminated then.)



So what's special about all the other days when we can't sing about soda?

  • Wait, do people actually pronounce לתודה as lesodah?

  • @OldBunny2800 Those of us who pronounce a ת רפה like an s in general do.

It's obvious. You should be drinking wine on those days - not soda. As for Erev Yom Kippur, you should be drinking wine then too in order to make the transition from drinking to fasting harder and therefore intensifying the "inui" affliction.

    It's because תודה reminds us of סודה, which reminds us of the founding of Mitzrayim, which is a sad time and not a happy time. If Mitzrayim had never been founded then an evil Paro would not have arisen to enslave us all, and we would not have been driven down so far that we fell into Mitzrayim's idolatrous ways mere weeks after receiving the torah. Mitzrayim brought us sorrow and woe, and we do not want to be sad on festive days! And even on Yom Kippur, we should be reflecting on our own deeds, not Mitzrayim's.



    So why is it permitted to sing of soda on other days? On other days we hear of sadness and evil all the time (at least if we are within range of any news source). Singing that reminds us of Mitzrayim cannot possibly make things worse on those days; in fact, a little singing about Mountain Dew might distract us and singing of Red Bull might even elevate us. But don't sing of Sprites, though; that way lies trouble.
