    Shticky Guy is both funny AND original.

    The following is my current dilemma AND possible solution:

    I’m trying to figure out how to eat a great melave malka AND not have the scale complain about it.

    I think I’m going to have some leftover gefilte fish AND soup AND meat AND desserts AND…(I know, I know! AND soon the scale will know, too)

    When I finish eating melave malke, I will get up AND decide if I’ve had quite enough or if I can make room for some cake AND coffee.

    Does anyone else here relate to this scenario AND have a better solution?

    I hope you all have a great week AND month AND year AND…

    Star-K website has a lot of information about what you can with many appliances. I believe that you can only open the door of an ovenonce, to take food out. You cannot put food into an oven on shabbos.

    Simple! There’s a guy who used to write, “and and and and and,” which annoyed many people.

    The speech therapist told the student to repeat “and” five times.

    Like this she said, “and and and and and”.

    I win.

    One Upon a Time There was a mother named And and a father named And.

    And and And had quadruplets,

    naming then And, And, And, and And.

    No PBA; “I win!” 🙂

    IS the sentence grammatically correct even if you don’t capitalize appropriately?

    Still no winner.

    ETA: I hadn’t seen b_h post at the time.

    Where was I supposed to capitalize?

    (Also, bh, yours is better, but I thought of using “and” as a noun first.)

    So basically you want me to try to write and, and, and, and, and and, and not make any grammatical errors. Something like that?

    I was talking about ayc and Haleivi. I hadn’t even gotten to yours, popa.

    Yours should have been written as follows:

    “Like this,” she said, “And and and and and.”

    Spot the 5 corrections.

    Well, there are many errors in mine as well.

    I was typing too quickly.

    There’s is an interesting one I believe with the word “had.”

    B”H I’m fully aware of its correct usage.

    Pardon moi for my feeble attempt at injecting some humor.

    Kindly be mochel at this auspicious time of year.

    I once had a friend and relative whose main desire in life was to learn and go to college, while at the same time plan his future and get married, though his mother and father told him him that they thought he should finish his schooling and get a job before doing anything else.

    Knowing how the beauty of a song or melody of beautiful composition sung on tune by a wonderful and amazing singer and performer with magnificent harmonies and background vocals accompanied by a philharmonic orchestra and symphonic musical ensemble playing distinct notes of music in sync among numerous pitches of melody with magnificent chords by musicians and vocalists masterfully assembled and conducted by an organized and masterful conductor or music director can captivate, mesmerize and fascinate people in addition to comforting and cheering broken hearts, miserable persons and depressed individuals, the Hebrew Academy for Special Children non-profit organization, otherwise known by its acronym – HASC, arranges an annual live performance and melodic show where a concert hall or entertainment centre ,which is lit to desire and has a tranquilizing setting, is rented for the evening while orthodox-Jewish super-stars in the likes of Mordechai Ben David, Avraham Fried and Lipa Schmeltzer rehearse together with a full instrumental ensemble that contains strings, brass, woodwinds and percussions in addition to a vocal chorus led by a choirmaster in preparation for the evening where they will be starring in a packed music hall filled with thousands of people that wish to participate in the recital so masterfully created to be easy on the ear and pleasant sounding, in addition to supporting the worthy cause of taking special children and unfortunate children to the next level with special education and programs to prepare them for life.

    18 to be exact.

    Ben and Sam opened a corner bodega. They went to the local sign making company to order a sign stating “B and S Dairy”. To prevent the sign maker from erring and producing a sign stating “Bands Dairy,” they cautioned him to leave spaces between “B” and “and” and “and” and “S”.

    Here we go:

    I put up a sign on my store saying Fruit and Vegetables.

    Then someone pointed out that there was too wide a gap between Fruit and ‘and’ and ‘and’ and Vegetables.

    Now who can give me a sentence with 11 ‘hads’ in a row.

    Some great replies, but nature’s was the closest to the answer that I had. Mine was a slightly different story but was basically along the same lines. Other replies were humorous but were not all grammatically accurate sentences.

    Squeak thanks loads for that link. Page 2 was highly entertaining, with another example of the five consecutive ‘ands’, and even had the seven ‘hads’ that I remember from school. Fond memories!

    klugeryid: Giving someone the name ‘had’ is cheating. You may as welll give him the name ‘had had had had….’.

    Can you get 11 ‘hads’ in a row gramatically correct without it being anyone’s name? The answer is along the lines of a school essay as per kluigeryid’s try.

    Me example works for anything.

    The speech therapist said, “say ‘had’ eleven times.”

    “Like this,” she said, “Had had had had had had had had had had had.”

    Pba – amazing why didn’t I think of that?????

    Hey – you know what – get this – I can make a sentence with (OMG!) 12 hads!!!!.

    “Like this,” she said, “Had had had had had had had had had had had had.”

    Actually no, just thinking – 12 doesn’t really make sense. 11 is Ok but not 12.

    The problem is that it was supposed to be a sentence, while mine is the only one that is actually one sentence.

    Two boys doing an essay being tested among other things on the correct usage of ‘had’ (past tense) and ‘had had’ (past perfect tense).

    John, where Bill had had ‘had’ had had ‘had had’; had ‘had had’ had more than just 2 marks allotted to it, Bill would have scored higher.

    Haleivi reminds me of the wealthy baal habos kamtzan who used to ask every meshulach a riddle. “If you can tell me a word in the Torah with four straight Kometzs, I’ll give you a generous nedava.” Naturally, most people could not answer, and went away empty-handed and disappointed.

    One talmid chacham successfully answered, “Harachama” (one of the non kosher birds).

    The Baal Habos reluctantly reached into his pocket, and said, “Do me a favor, halt es bai dir, I don’t want my secret to get out!”

    So the Talmid Chacham says, “So how about you answer mine! Where is there a word with four straight patachs?”

    The Baal Habos thinks about it then says, “I give up. What is it?”

    The talmid chacham answers, “Hakadachas. And do me a favor, halt es bai dir!”
