    I popa would have entered any of the numerous shuls in these United Lands of Amerigo, he would have instantly noticed the Daf displayed on the huge zmanim screens. (Do they uses electricity in his shul?)

    Just one example on how the CR changed my life: So I’m a pretty aggressive driver, and that’s saying it nicely. Usually, when someone isn’t driving the way I like I let out a whole string of @#$%^&* and some #$@&%*!…. well the other day I was driving and someone on the road was not behaving. So I just looked him in the eye and yelled I hate you, you big fat jerk! And then I was laughing too hard that I didn’t even get a chance to rear-end him or tail him home to give him a piece of my mind….

    Mind you, kindly put your s/n on your car… I want to be FAR AWAY!!

    Hi streekgeek,

    lol streetgeek, that’s terrific.

    Usually, you can win the road rage argument much better by laughing at them.

    LF – I was just exaggerating a tiny little bit. I have never ever ever rear ended anyone on purpose. Nor have I tailed anyone all the way home. I do believe however that I am the reason behind the “Pray for me, I drive in _____” bumper stickers….

    TAOM – I wish, but fat chance! I try to reserve my crude language for when I’m alone in the car though I do get reminders sometimes when I slip up…Some people in my life are just such <censored> that I look forward to driving so I can just let it all out….

    streekgeek:

    Gladly lend you my car. The one without a horn. It’s highly conducive to acquiring self restraint, patience control. A “middos workout” center. (and I can do nothing about it – I’m not gonna bump the guy in front of me yapping on his cell phone, oblivious to the traffic signal). Cursing and foaming will do nothing constructive – it forces me to behave properly.

    Oh, and I’ve long learned NEVER to glance at another driver’s approval, or lack thereof, of my driving expertise. There are scary, REAL SCARY people out there. (that’s for another thread)

    A “middos workout” center you say? I’ll take it – where can I pick it up from and when? Let me know ASAP so I can schedule an appointment by the mechanic to have the horn fixed.

    And I also happen to disagree with your statement that cursing and foaming isn’t constructive. It may not help the situation but I personally find it therapeutic. If that’s not constructive, then what is?

    I noticed someone with a bumper sticker, that was the title of this thread. Who was that???? I laughed so hard I almost rear ended you!

    #1019726

    streekgeek:

    If the mechanic fixes the horn the it’s no more a middos workout center. (or as they say in Yiddish no more hat maker) I’m also terrified of the thought of getting into a horn operational vehicle and revenging myself against society at large for all the years of pent up feelings…

    One more note. I’m certainly not one to lecture chas v’sholom, or even to advise. It just appears to me, that even if one finds these forms of “letting off steam” to be therapeutic, in the long run, it is detrimental to character refinement.

    funnybone – Wasn’t me, though I should get a hold of a bumper sticker like that and keep it inside my car so I’ll remember to use my lashon nekiya.

    Little Froggie – So I guess the deal is off, I don’t think I would be able to handle that, but I’ll gladly do the revenging on society for you! Just give me the plate numbers of certain people and I’ll take care of it. And btw I love your way of subtly giving mussar πŸ˜‰ I know I know – I’ll add this on to the long list of things I have to work on before I die.

    So I figure, if I can just get enough money to have 1001 cities and 1001 boats, they won’t have taynos on me for not learning enough. So I’m working on it.

    But that’s not why I’m behind on daf yomi. No, that’s because you’re all BIG FAT JERKS

    Heh. Not quite. I mean, it’s easy to be poorer than Hillel. Anyone who is drowning in debt is poorer than Hillel. I noticed that Rashi doesn’t learn that these are real Taanos. He calls it a Pis’chon Peh to have Taanos. In other words, although there was a person who went above and beyond, that doesn’t mean that I am now a Rasha for not completely following. However, it does show that if you really want you can deal with your situation. That’s called a Pis’chon Peh.

    they announced the change in shul after mussaf, but the two real jerks that left early never found out

    And what’s the excuse this time?

    Just because I was 6 blatt behind I wouldn’t want to know that a tent is not an ????

    #1019736

    It’s one thing not to know that Daf Yomi is skipping a mesechta. Fine. But you didn’t know that a tent isn’t necessarily an ohel? And we’re big fat jerks for not realizing that you’re an am ha’aretz?

    #1019737

    Also, which type of tent are you reffering to?

    #1019738

    Normal regular tent.

    #1019739

    Comparable to which of the gemara’s tents, kvius-wise?

    A naklitin

    I have a big agnes 1 person ultralight.

    I don’t recall the model number, but it was almost as expensive as my backpack.

    Is it weird if I only spent about 3 times as much on my car as on my backpacking gear?

    #1019741

    naklitin

    Your tent is lower than ten tefachim?

    Is it weird if I only spent about 3 times as much on my car as on my backpacking gear?

    It is weird if you were able to get a decent car in the $2,000 range.

    Also, he probably needs to catch up on Yoma.

    Actually, a peek at Rashi and Tosafos would show you that they did not have Taanis directly after Rosh Hashana.

    #1019761

    You’re telling me that popa called us all big fat jerks because of a diyuk in Rash”i? He doesn’t even learn Rash”i!
