☕ DaasYochid ☕Participant
He wrote “chareidim as an ambiguous group”.
He was contrasting specific groups of chareidim with the general population of chareidim lumped together.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantI don’t think that is implied.
I think he means that they are all subcategories of chareidim.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantSo Sfardim can’t be chareidi?
Of course they can. Did someone suggest otherwise?
☕ DaasYochid ☕Participant☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantMaybe we should abolish Simchas Torah?
And Purim.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantWho was the Chazon Ish’s rebbi?
His father.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantWhat are you not following?
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantThe Brisker Rav, Chazon Ish, Reb Aharon Kotler, and Satmar Rav, were all charismatic and influential people who had some significant chiddushim in their mehalchim.
In what way did they differ from their rebbeim?
December 25, 2016 8:21 pm at 8:21 pm in reply to: Why does lakewood need so many hat stores #1205993☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantSomeone may have a bigger family, but if the store down the block sells hats for $150, he won’t sell very many hats at $200.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantUbiquitin: That wasn’t a condemnation of Israel.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantThis was no different in spite of it being spun that way.
Not vetoing the resolution is a major change. I don’t know how you downplay that.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantParties can’t stop individuals from registering as members
Yet, you blame the Republican party for its bigots and Jew haters, despite the fact that the leadership is clearly not that way.
Double standard.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantWhat else is Moshiach about?!
That’s a different question.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantEssentially what we’re saying is that it’s perfectly normal for a Rabbi to say one thing- but when questioned 1 on 1- he might hold differently.
I think that is a mischaracterization of what is being discussed.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantWe are in this world for the purpose of bringing moshiach
That is all .
No, we are in this world to serve Hashem by following the Torah.
That is all.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantWhy would you want to do that?
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantAnd you don’t need to have it owned by a goy.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantBeing a Rinnai water heater.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantThe Denver donuts are laced with pot. That’s why they’re so good.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantAdditionally, I am sure that Rav Shach, zatsal, himself thought that Chabad does many good things.
Why are you sure?
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantWe are speaking about specifically Chabad
You said he was an old time misnaged. The old time misnagdim were against all chassidus.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantRav Schach was very clear and adament that he was not against all chassidus, but rather, he took very strong issue specifically with things Chabad was doing.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantSaying we are all sinners and need to do tshuva sounds very similar to a philosophy of a relgion started by a man whose big birthday bash is coming up this weekend
☕ DaasYochid ☕Participant☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantThere are two types of chareidim: those who think there are only two types of chareidim, and those who live in the real world.
FTFY
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantSo maybe the only events which are supposed to bring us to teshuvah are the ones we find out about.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantSome Chumashim have it with a R’vi’i.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantMy Aunt Bessie.
Oh, wait you said “him”, never mind.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantIt’s probably very different in Eretz Yisroel, where typically, the boys start shidduchim younger than the boys in the US.
☕ DaasYochid ☕Participantthere’s a strong argument that there are more girls in shidduchim than boys in shidduchim, since girls enter the shidduch parsha younger than boys.
Indeed.
It is not all that unusual, in my circles, for the girl to be asked first. This typically occurs when the shadchan knows the girl better. The theory is that it’s to her advantage, because a boy (or his parents) is (are) more likely to seriously consider a girl who already said yes than one who didn’t.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantToo long didn’t read.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantTldr. The beginning says it is an insult to call someone retarded. I agree. The discussion was about using the word being inherently insulting even when not directed at an individual.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantOkay, Health, please don’t keep us in suspense; what do you think someone should do, and how did the magazine err?
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantYichusdik, I’m curious to know how you think I live.
Also, on another thread (I don’t recall where) you complimented me, and I didn’t have time to respond, so I’ll take this opportunity to say thank you.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantAchdus means everyone should try to get along with me, on my terms.
December 16, 2016 1:42 pm at 1:42 pm in reply to: Why does greek yogurt smell like stanky fish? #1200638☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantDo you keep it stored with stanky fish?
If not, that would explain it.
December 16, 2016 1:17 pm at 1:17 pm in reply to: At what age should someone purchase a burial plot? #1200009☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantWhen Moshiach comes, we’ll all be whisked to E”Y, correct? So isn’t buying a plot in Chutz L’aretz tantamount to saying you don’t think Moshiach will come in your lifetime?
You could say that about any long term preparation. If you buy a house (which you won’t move into for a month) you could be accused of saying you don’t think Moshiach will come for a month. If you buy chicken for tomorrow night’s supper, you can be accused of saying you don’t think Moshiach will come today.
In fact, though, you’re not saying Moshiach is definitely not coming today, this month, or in your lifetime ch”v; you’re just preparing in case.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantI love a really good cup of coffee. I’ve been drinking it for more than 55 years.
It’s probably cold by now.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantThere is no specific window of time, and my response to LB’s post was unclear and imprecise.
I think her post was also unclear, because it didn’t mention that you can only say Asher Yatzar until the next time you need to use the bathroom, which is not implied, IMO, by the words “hours or more ago”.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantI don’t know what Chabad does l’maaseh, but the Shulchan Aruch Harav says you can only say Asher Yatzar until the next time you feel the need to use the bathroom.
So, yes, technically, there is no time window, but it is very limited.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantTechnically, you’re right, but the implication of saying one would say a bracha even hours later is that even if one used the bathroom again, he would still say a bracha for that instance (i.e. say two brachos) which the MB says we don’t pasken like.
☕ DaasYochid ☕Participant?? ??? ???? ?? ???????. Tasters Choice isn’t bad for instant, but doesn’t compare to a decent cup of real coffee.
December 15, 2016 6:27 pm at 6:27 pm in reply to: renting an apartment in lakewood for a month #1200524☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantThey could expand the roads
Not easily for some key ones (e.g. Rt.9). They would need to knock down hundreds of buildings.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantAre you saying that many people concur and say that there is a specific window of time to say Ashair Yatzar?
The Mishna Berurah is saying it.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantAvram in MD: +1
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantAlso interesting spin-off: There is no time limit to saying Ashair Yatzar. Unlike eating where the after bracha is 70 minutes. If someone forgot to say Ashair Yatzar, hours or more ago, the bracha is still permitted.
The Mechaber says that, but Mishnah Berurah says many Acharonim disagree.

December 15, 2016 3:09 pm at 3:09 pm in reply to: renting an apartment in lakewood for a month #1200520☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantYou just cant build more, Besides the roads there are sewer and power lines issues.
There is enough land to build, but yes, the roads are a problem. I imagine the power grid and perhaps even sewer lines can be improved, but the roads are an issue which there doesn’t seem to be a way around.
December 15, 2016 1:48 pm at 1:48 pm in reply to: renting an apartment in lakewood for a month #1200518☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantZD, there’s not a shortage of housing, and if that were an issue, they would just build more.
The problem is that the roads were not made for such a large population. At times, it can take 25 minutes to travel someplace it should take 5.
Residents are getting fed up, and there’s serious noise about halting any further development.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantThey do not use that terminology for the mentally handicapped. They haven’t for decades.
Why should the relative of a mentally disabled person be offended that an anachronistic term for that condition is shared with fire which encounters a cloth treated with minerals such as aluminium hydroxide?
December 15, 2016 12:57 am at 12:57 am in reply to: If you think the R word is offensive you are retarded #1199768☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantBump. I think that’ll do it.
