    I realized, that my friends all know I lie, but some of you might not.

    So, here is my ?????: Everything I say on this site may not be true. Except my halacha stuff, I take that seriously.

    Popa, is your statement a lie, meaning, in reality you never say a lie and always the truth?

    I meant more along the lines of that I know nothing about ambidextrous people.

    is that the truth or a lie?

    Sorry, the tautology does not work here, since I didn’t say I always lie.

    Therefore, if I am lying here, it actually is self fulfilling. So either way it is true.

    Two things come to mind:

    1) it’s still Adar

    2) is it April 1 yet where you live?

    pba,

    Are your hashkofos, even if exaggerated, basically real, or totally made up?

    An example which comes to mind is that the lady whose daughter’s seat was stolen should have thrown the alteh bubby, who stole the seat, down the steps. Obviously this was exaggerated, but did you really feel that she should not have been accommodating despite the bubby’s rudeness? (If you don’t mind, please answer this one seriously.)

    DY: My hashkafos are serious also.

    I think most people would have given in in that case.

    I am actually unsure if it is the right thing to do. It probably depends why you are giving in. If it is because you aren’t able to stand up for yourself, then I would actually advise not giving in.

    As far as the old lady, I am convinced she is a horrible bully.

    (But no, I would not throw her down the stairs. I can exaggerate sometimes.)

    I’m actually not convinced of anything, because we only hear one side of the story in these cases. But given the story as presented, yes, she sounds like a horrible bully, and yes, one should have the fortitude to stand up to that, but if it were my wife and daughter, (or me in an equivalent situation,) I would hope for the sake of middos and chinuch we would give in, despite not being intimidated.

    Thanks for your response.

    Poppa is your statement a lie

    This reminds me of what I heard re what ??? ???? said in ????? (or !??????)

    ??? ????? ????? ?? ???? ???

    “I say in my haste that all men are liars”.

    Someone said that if all men are liars then that he is including himself, and if so the statement could be untrue. But if its untrue then he’s not a liar so he said the truth. But if he said the truth then its true that all men are liars in which case his statement would be untrue… Etc etc etc.

    Good to know.

    in full disclosure: I occasionally stretch facts so as to make myself less recognizable.

    That’s not logically correct. A liar is not necessarily someone’s whose every statement is untrue. If it were that way, you’d be right. However, a liar could be someone who sometimes lies and sometimes tells the truth.

    This begins to sound like something from my freshman logic class of the Cretan saying “All Cretans are liars.”

    PBA, are you running some kind of experiment?

    it would make sense if it was a habitual liar

    mbachur,

    Yes, but who says it has to mean that?

    #1105318

    more complicated is the fact:

    a) i think that whatever i think is true

    b) i also think that not everything i think is true, is in fact true

    And that is the truth. 🙂

    Popa- Did you know that your screen name next to your post, it is a link to this thread?

    #1105320

    onegoal, I pointed that out too here:

    http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/joseph-1#post-321849

    I posted that before I saw your post here.

    It’s hysterical that the mods did that!

    The rule is that

    ??? ????? ?? ?????? ????? ????? ????? ?? ??

    basically ‘all’ doesn’t mean ‘all’

    Anyways we know that dovid hamelech wasn’t a liar.

    Also, ??? refers to the lower level of civilization related to ????.

    If all liars lied consistently, we would tag them and reverse whatever they say.

    That’s why popa says he sometimes lies – to throw us off. I think I know when he’s lying, but I guess I’ll never know for sure.

    For example, I think he’s a man, and if he’s married, it’s to only one wife.

    Popa, I believe, is a retired poltergeist with two and a half wives, the half being a woman without a tongue.

    You know that feeling when your friend tells you that she was glancing around the CR, that she opened up a thread in which you have posted a lot, and that she read your post that REFERENCED HER? You start to wish that you did a lot more lying on YWN.

    (Hashem loves me- she didn’t figure out it was me. If she’s have known to look it would’ve taken her about thirty seconds.)

    Wisey said that the pasuk of “Kol Haadam Kozev” doesn’t show that EVERYONE is a liar because we have a rule ??? ????? ?? ?????? ????? ????? ????? ?? ?? which means that you can’t apply a rule to every individual case even if the rule seems to say that it applies to every case. I responded back that (based on the Kitzur Klalei Hatalmud in the back of Berachos) the rule of ??? ????? ?? ?????? ????? ????? ????? ?? ?? only applies to a statement made by a Tanna because Tannaim were notorious for talking in abridged ways, but not to a statement made by an Amora because Amoraim do not talk in the same abridged way. Now it happens to be that here we are discussing Dovid Hamelech and perhaps he spoke like a Tanna and therefore the rule would apply, but I cannot say so for certain.
