Pashuteh Yid,
How dare suggest closing this thread! For once there’s a thread with no bickering, and you have the unmitigated GALL (not p’tcha or apples) to suggest closing it?!?! What happened to achdus, you EDITED?

I would suggest that you also read this (the thread itself was apparently removed).
I do not indulge in “rude, obnoxious behavior”.
I’m glad to hear it; sorry if I misunderstood you.

When I am that agitated and call Customer Service, I immediately tell the rep the following: I apologize in advance, because I am very upset, and I KNOW that my complaint has nothing whatsoever to do with you and is not your fault. But I am really angry about X,Y, and Z, and you are the one answering the phone
Oomis, I think we are twins separated at birth. I do the same thing. 🙂

haifagirl, Oomis… triplets… I do the same 🙂
I’m trying to understand this; how does apologizing in advance excuse rude, obnoxious behavior?
???? ??????
Cookie, you made a mistake;
it’s not dead, we just took a break.
Put away the anger,
in the closet, on a hanger,
and chill out, for goodness’ sake!

P’tcha is an acquired taste

BTW, I like p’tcha.
I’m always right. One time I thought I was wrong, but that was a mistake; it turned out that I was right.

as long as you cannot see it to the naked eye, it is muttor.
True, but these are visible without a microscope.

Years ago, I heard a story about an elderly woman living in the city whose dog died. Her son came to take the dog for burial, and he decided to transport it on the subway, in an attache case. At one stop, a thug waited until the doors were about to close, snatched the case, and ran off. Just imagine his reaction when he opened it!

The Goq – Most Subtle Change of Screen Name
has anyone heard the notion that boiling the water (such as for coffee or tea) “melts” the copepods that might be present?
No, I’ve heard it doesn’t. On the other hand, I’ve heard that an urn is okay because the copepods sink to the bottom and don’t exit the spout.
Also, I’ve heard that in other cooked items, such as soup, there are bitul considerations which leaves more room for leniency.
They’ve been in the New York City water since at least the opening of the Old Croton Aqueduct in 1842. All the gedolim drank the water, presumably with the copepods.
Whether or not this should be a reason to permit the water is part of the machlokes.
You just did!
OK, here goes:
I nominate eclipse for Most Pit iful Attempt At Changing A Screen Name.
If Rav Belsky says it’s ok; it’s ok and end of story.
Many very big poskim disagree (R’ Dovid Feinstein, R Feivel Cohen, and R’ Elyashiv agreed with them).Why is it “end of story” that it’s muttar?
My biggest flaw is that I think I’m perfect.
Many old threads get revived later on.

If you can readily see them with the naked eye, then they are large enough for the water to require filtering.
They’re large enough. I’ve seen them.

We’d go the local store and buy beer with our fake ID’s.

I happened to have been informed that nassau/suffolk county and far rockaway do not have bugs
Nassau and Suffolk are not part of NYC; Far Rockaway is, and uses NYC water.
I used to like chocolate the best, until I tasted the dead skunk delight. Yum! Thanks for the idea, Mr.80!
BTW, hunting for the skunk was almost as much fun as eating the ice cream.

Dieting is unhealthy – it makes you hungry
bpt,
Do you like Oneg Shabbos herring?
I don’t understand your question! If the person your dating would care WHY would you keep iit a secret? Just to make further trouble? And If they would not care, WHY would you mind letting them know?
Most people would care, and would likely not agree to even go out if they knew. (Not that anyone is at fault for a mental health issue, but that’s human nature.) The idea of waiting to tell is that the other person might agree to overlook an issue once they have gotten to know the person. Yet, it would be unfair tho let it go too far without disclosing an issue.
Am I the only fan?
I liked the wasabi.
As I said, great idea!
Thanks.
Nope.
What if you gave your masser money to another young man in your situation who couldn’t afford to date to help him get married, and then he did the same for you. Wouldn’t that be a way of using masser money as a chessed and tzedaka? Is that a possible loophole to this dilemma?
Yes, sounds good, but then he’d feel that his friend doesn’t need to go to such a fancy restaurant!
What? I can’t hear you. Can you please type louder?
Should a girl whose brother(s) are not up to your standards, not be good enough for you even if she herself is a prize jewel in every way? it’s time to stop over-analyzing everything, and start evaluating a person based on his/her own merits.
See Rashi, Shemos, 6-23
Ken,
Actually, I abbreviated the story; as I originally heard it, the prospective shver said he would farher him by having R’ Yonoson say a shtickel torah on a random page opened in a random sefer, and the inn where they met had only a siddur.
You should give the $40 to the owner of the ice cream store.
What does that have to do with this?

Just a little joke – my way of saying that I don’t think you owe the money, as I felt on the ice cream question (someone responded to that one that it would be tzedaka).
The majority of the times, my intention when I returned the money it was almost akin to a juvenile (yes, I can act that way sometimes) “tag, you’re it.”
That’s precisely why I don’t think you owe the $ to maaser, but in this case, if you give it to tzedaka, you do get a mitzvah anyhow.
Popa Bar Abba,
I think you are board.
Let’s not add any posts here!
Great idea!
I don’t see how it could possibly be considered maaser. Money spent on a previous obligation cannot be considered maaser, and getting married is a chiyuv (for a man). Any money spent above the minimum required to get married would not be part of a mitzvah at all. The only way I could see it being considered maaser is if the girl paid for the date!
wanderingchana, this is a men’s thread. Are you hard of herring?
I see nothing wrong with what chayav is doing; he’s playing a game, and being very obvious about it.
I knew a woman who finished shas (Bavli) three times.
Yes, but I imagine that she was sober.
