    It’s OK. It’s called spoofing.

    I don’t think that’s the correct word

    I know what you’re referring to, sort of what Uncle Moishy does, however I think I learned in my Legal Political and Ethical dimension of business that you can only do it as a parody

    oh I thought this was about jewish songs sung to goyish tunes (an example would be on second dance there is a tune that is beat for beat a goyish tune (they play it in my work, that’s how I know)) I won’t hijack this thread though, I’ll make my own

    additionally, mention that Hashem doesn’t let people into Gan Eden if they break a pledge (I don’t know it that helps though)

    PBA,

    you still didn’t answer my question,

    and anyway if you really want a heter I can tell you that since the group you were in didn’t give chashivus for saying Tehillim (they sand HaTikvah before it) then you didn’t need to either, so you wouldn’t need to be Yotzei Min Haklal

    I wanted to eat nuts and shmooze with my brother.

    don’t you mean you wanted to BE nuts

    Notice also, how it was my brother’s wife and not my wife who got on my case. My wife knows better.

    did she get on your brother’s case too? (I’m guessing not, b/c she knows better too)

    When we open the door on seder night we are opening it up for Eliyahu hanavi

    I actually know of a chashuva family that has someone dress up as a “ghost” (Eliyahu Hanavi) right before Shfoch Chamascha

    You are not permitted to say lashon harah about yourself.

    (I know the story of the Chofetz Chaim)

    I actually heard that the story was made up

    I just posed the question if using the holocaust as a reference to personal pain is fair.

    the question came from an assumption that that was what she was saying we’re trying to pose a different inference from her words

    I see that she is getting the benefit of the doubt but i am not thats about what i expected.

    are you looking to vent or ask a serious question (I’m horrible at helping people when they’re venting)?

    secondly, we’re not not giving you the benefit of the doubt we’re trying to help you understand why she would say something like that

    Ok here it goes (I know, I never liked grade school that much)

    My worst is in 1st grade when we came back from recess our Rebbe told us to open our chumashim and I said “oh” he asked me to repeat myself so I said “I said Oh” and he told me to leave the class (I’m figuring he thought I said “No”)

    My best was in 6th grade my Rebbe had a sort of game where four people made a grammen one would say one line then someone would have to come up with the second then someone with the third and last one with the last line and I was always so good at it.

    If there are insufficient seats for everyone, the children should allow the adults to sit instead of them taking seats.

    let me quote part of the last mishna of Sotah

    “before Moshiach comes……. Zekeinim (old people) will stand Mipnei(Because of) Kitanim (Children under 13)

    The “Declaration of independence” is held not to convey rights (otherwise slavery would have ended in 1776), and in any event, Federal law only affects the Federal government – and you can’t blame this one on Obama

    I don’t think they considered slaves people (3/5 of a person)

    and I know I can’t blame Obama I wasn’t planning on it, it’s just another reason why I think “NY is the only state that is at war with it’s citizens”

    Not to mention the fact that the reason anyone has a mechayev to listen to the “psak” is because ……..

    They are right?

    If the psak was everyone should have good filters (which it seems to be what R Reisman thinks) then there is a point, I don’t see a reason why any Jew that wants to do the ratzon Hashem doesn’t have a filter

    I agree with ZD (sorry ZK) (sorry klal yisrael too) I came because I thought I would hear how the gedolim felt we should use the internet (what I term the Eitz Hadaas)(look at Onkelos by the word piryo by the Eitz) afterwards I got k9 for my phone (I already use koshernet for my computer)

    anyways I thought the mods werent letting these threads up (I know I’m putting my foot in my mouth)
