What did you give?
What did you get?
What stores, products, deals, etc. do you recommend?
And of course this is the Yeshiva World Coffee Room so… what is your hashkafik opinion about presents? Is it Chukos HaGoyim?
Sorry, didn’t give anything and didn’t get anything. My kids have tons of toys, books, CD’s, etc… They didn’t need anything. I wrote on a previous thread that I felt giving gifts too much like the goyim anyway. Since when did this gift giving business on Chanukah start anyway?? If someone could tell who started this mishugaus, I would love to know??
mazal:
The retailers and advertising. And you are correct, it comes from kratsmich.
Didnt get anything. I could use a new car tho
maybe someone can provide shadow with an ascii art new car? 🙂
OK shadow – pick one, and one only.

curious,
I’m sooo embarrassed!!! Its not good to post detailed info about another poster here, but to have a picture of me posted????
j/k, you’ve got major talent!!!
LOL. That’s the weight before or after the latkes?
And don’t for a second think that’s my original work. It is not!! I’ve got talent in copying and pasting…
Hey curious thanxxxx!!! U made my night!
Charlie your looking good!!
curious,
you didn’t have to be that honest, lol. I may be overweight but at least I haven’t aged at all.
myshadow,
thanks. Can I get a ride in your new wheels?
lol no prob! Pick ya up from work!
We could go get mod some coffee no milk 2% sugar on the way (did I get it right)
2% sugar, what are you trying to do to me??? maybe I need to start a whole thread on how does everyone drink their coffee :o). Ok for those who do not know: no sugar and 2% milk thanks anyway – it’s the thought that counts. YW Moderator-72
curious – now try a picture of me. (and don’t get a map of Brooklyn – i didn’t eat that many donuts!)
lol mod whoops im cracking up! sorry!
i may need to hire a professional food taster prior to accepting coffee from anyone here. delete or edit one little post and…

Yes, 72. That is why I offered you a choice only from my famous Cyber Blend and Java Applet Coffees. Your safety is ensured by simply running the brew through a reliable virus scan.
curious you gotta write that that has *no sugar and 2% milk* only!

BTW mods, my post/graphic for ********* didn’t make its way up here. Is that what I get for giving you coffee with NO sugar?
I felt that the post that didn’t make it could make the intended feel uncomfortable. YW Moderator-72
OK. You’re right. I’ll try another one (I’ll be nice. I promise)
myshadow – i thought you did that on purpose!
lol that whole exchange got me to laugh time #2 for today! and today is NOT my day! thanks, guys! :}

Curious
awwwwww thank you so much!!!! you do deserve the cr creativity award!!!!(yeah yeah i know you cut & pasted it!!)
curious i’m still waiting. why do I always have to be the one to get gypped?!
BTW – that’s not a keyboard. it’s a piano/casio. you know, that, right?
brooklyn19
you chocolate bar got takin down!!! it was here b4!!!
brooklyn19
yeah i know!!! i play the casio-maybe he saw it on the band thread!!! btw your picture is on another thread!!!!!
lol thanks i just saw it :}:]:}:]
I think your pic is on the chanukah presents thread. I did not leave you out.
Ooops. Ignore that last post. It’s on the “YWN Biggest Blogger” thread.
curious, you gotta start a thread and draw each poster a pic!
If you do, please do not make a rubber ducky for me. It would not be correct.
Btw, I gotta thank YWN for something, I don’t know where the other thread on chanuka gifts was, but when I was reading through it I really learnt something new.
I always gave out chanuka gifts, but this year when I was reading the thread on how the idea of gifts originated from xmas, I decided no more gifts and I’m only giving out gelt this year!
Thanx guys!

'At your service myshadow. That will be a $5.95 fee billed to your credit card. Oh, and you still owe me 5 bucks for a Chanukah present.
SJS were you able to pick up anything at CVS Sunday or Monday? All the A&H cleaner was gone at mine but I picked up some other stuff (but I’m not as good as you since I rolled $43 in ecbs from Thanksgiving and paid $1 out of pocket).
curious- I think squeak needs a mouse, not a rubber ducky
