    I just googled the word “coflacter” because I didn’t believe it was a real word, and only two pages came up. The first was this thread, and the second was a page in Spanish.

    I don’t think coflacter is a word.

    I would just like to clarify my stance on this issue, as I see there has been some controversy regarding my earlier comment. I posted Google’s definition for the word “dishonest” only to point out that stealing doesn’t fall into the category of “dishonest”. I never intended to imply that stealing is acceptable, nor did I intend to mitigate the severity of stealing. I was only presenting an issue of semantics. I’ll admit that my comment is quite irrelevant to both the title and original post of this thread, and posting such a comment is generally a violation of internet board etiquette, but I felt that the thread had already gone off-topic (starting with Mashiach Agent’s first post), and thus I figured my comment was OK to post.

    Sorry for any confusion I may have caused

    🙂

    As per Google, sounds like stealing isn’t dishonest:

    adjective

    behaving or prone to behave in an untrustworthy or fraudulent way.

    “he was a dishonest hypocrite prepared to exploit his family”

    synonyms: fraudulent, corrupt, swindling, cheating, double-dealing; More

    intended to mislead or cheat.

    “he gave the editor a dishonest account of events”

    I don’t see how parking in someone’s driveway is dishonest. Unless you tell them that you didn’t park in their driveway.

    I believe Rabbi Ribiat says that both are permitted. But don’t take my word for it.

    A little off-topic, but related: I once had herring spread on a cracker when I was little. It was at a kiddush, and I thought it was whitefish. I literally spit it out on the floor.

    There it is. Therapize me…

    Which one of the 613 mitzvos is it to be happy always? I’m pretty sure it’s not…

    It is attraction (well, technically it’s repulsion). Electrons repel each other, so in effect they are “attracted” to things with an opposite (i.e. positive) charge.
