        Schlemazel is an unlucky person.

        Schlemiel is an inept person.

          TIL one of the microbreweries in Milwaukee ends their tours by putting a glove on one of the beer bottles going down the line, just as Laverne did in the credits of Laverne and Shirley.

            Mjr- Thanks! I knew the latter, but not the former.

              I've heard that a schlemiel will pour out his drink. A schlemozzle is the one who it will get poured on.

              (Or something like that.)
              “There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged.
              One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world.
              The other, of course, involves orcs." -- John Rogers
