why would he imply something so patently false?
Sorry doesn’t cut it.
gee is he paid per word? I’m like at least a 1/3 of the way thru and all he’s saying in many, many paragraphs, is that resumes are a new innovation. Not a word so far about why resumes are so terrible.
BTW It happens to be that I found a Shidduch resume posted online 1870 years ago, but since then they seem to have fallen out of style. [I hope the point I’m making is clear enough. If it’s not, I’ll rephrase it as a question: How old is the internet?]
WB Good to hear from you. I may be the only one who enjoys your threads, b
How much do I get to charge for providing you with rant material and basically saving your life?They need to bump their speed limits up—the highest it gets, on a freeway, is 110 kmh. An average city street is 40 kmh.
Some streets should certainly have such limits–the two-lane curvy roads with space for one car and maybe a pedestrian–but many streets could be higher.
And the ridiculous speed bumps every 3 meters, which breaks the wheels unless you’re driving half the speed limit……Acquaintance of mine dozed the whole time lawyers were talking. Plus he did some thing else that I can’t say. He was the first juror excused.
zap slipped up on this thread and wrote something serious.
And….McCarthy won.
the biggest piece of ugh.
had to go and contaminate the republican party. (His win is a loss for the republicans, not a win. Attn dovrosenbaum.)
hopefully “republican” will soon also be found to be a lie.What is a chia pet?
um toshma.
chasm sofer predated the avnei nezer.@drosenbaum
”
Another point lost on many is that the Republican party continues to diversify in terms of candidates, …While I do no endorse toeiva, Zeldin had a lesbian running mate and George Santos won his congressional seat on Long Island. We’re living in interesting times.”That’s certainly nothing to celebrate. “Interesting” is hardly the word. try “horrifying”.
its kind of weird. already with the overthrow of roe v wade the polls plummeted so how much was actually due to DJT?
“In some upstate counties there have been two-cop teams – one will be in the squad car down the road and the other stands by the edge of the sidewalk and takes a step the moment a car passes by. He radios ahead that the car failed to yield and the car is ticketed. You’re just a cash cow.”
It should follow that you could deny the first cop’s accusation, and it’s your word vs. his, in which case logically you should win. When it’s your word’s against a cop’s the cop’s special status earns him credibility, but here the first cop is not testifying in an official capacity, but as a regular pedestrian.
@Marxist : kuvult implied that he saw the girls’ dress.
exercise room is a much better idea.
What does North American Aerospace Defense Command have to do with this?
I think you’re pretty much doomed if you’re lanky. A sense of humor is definitely more dominant among the stout.
BTW if someone forgets ותן טל ומטר and has to say it in shema koleinu, do they just say those 3 words? Or do they continue til haadamah? Or the end of the bracha?
I tried accessing the Google Doc but it said I didn’t have permission.
probably Antarctica.
how does the lottery economics work? The USA population is 331 million. So you need an average of everyone in the United States buying over one ticket in order to have reached the current jackpot. Not to mention the profit that the Powerball company (=the government, I think) has to make. And this is for one single lottery. How many jackpot winners are there over the course of a year? Many more.
A major problem with Tintin is his attitude of risking his life to save the bad guys, refusing to kill a murderer even when other’s lives are in danger, etc. It’s a modern, terrible attitude which sadly has become popular among many authors, and made out to be noble.
Harry Potter saved Pettigrew’s life because “his parents wouldn’t want [Sirius] to be a murderer.” How many innocent people–wizards and Mudbloods alike–were subsequently killed after Voldemort’s rise to power? [Arguably, Potter need not have anticipated Pettigrew’s escape, in which case sparing his life wasn’t AS terrible; however, Dumbledore’s approval at the end of the book is totally unwarranted.]
And A Series of Unfortunate Events is so lousy–a word which here means “replete”–of this horrible mindset, a phrase which here means, “the lousy lousy messages in A Series of Unfortunate Events,” that I can’t even enumerate them, and instead must advise you to never open the book, and instead open a more cheerful book.k i understand. Would have been clearer had you said “Although bears are indeed omnivores, I find it funny….”
@ymribiat
so if u know what omnivore means, why did you imply an omnivore wouldn’t eat seeds?These are very intriguing questions. Thank you for starting me on this research trail. Here are my results:
-Kiddush cup stem or not? Yes Why? It’s easier to hold. What was the original minhag? that way.
-Esrog pitom or not? Yes Why? Otherwise it’s possul. What was the original esrog type that was used? teimani.
-Pesach Keaara 2 matzahs or 3? 3
-Megillas Esther foldable or Torah style scroll? Was a scroll ever used? Do some use a scroll?
Don’t fold it.-Torah Ashkenaz scroll or Sephardi scroll? Why the difference and what was used originally?
This one’s too hard for me.-Tzitzis white strings or techeles? both White stripes or black? no stripes. Techeles Beged? optional.
-Chanuka oil or wax candles? Either
-Matza machine made or hand made? handmade What is more kosher? depends which hechsher .What are we commemorating the Yetzias Mitzrayim or Korban Pesach? When?
-Lulav closed or open? closed Koshalach or tied together? a holder. Whats the original minhag? to use gold rings. some say they were palm bedecked in gold.
this sounds exceedingly interesting. I want to google it but don’t have enough keywords from this topic. Is it about the transgender talia who applied as a woman?
“What’s this 4-year gap on your resume?”
“I was in Yale for that time.”
“Oh really? K, you’re hired.”
“Thanks. I really need this yob.”
Literacy in 3 easy steps, from the passive subject who told you you’re illiterate:
1) If a words doesn’t strike your fancy, just change its definition, all by yourself. You have the right to do that, and no one can ever take that right away from you.
2) If you can read, open a dictionary, and select 10 complicated sounding words. (IF you can’t read, ask someone to do it for you.) Make a few phrases using a few of those words, and say them with confidence and an intelligent air. If writing them, make sure to preface it with a #, and don’t use spaces.
3) when all else fails, did you know that Trump is actually also quite illiterate? He had to cheat in Yale or Harvard or wherever he was.
You apparently don’t know what omnivore means.

Eh, what????
“Their culture has malchus wired into it”
Their culture eroded any meaning of the word Malchus. In other words, Britons associate a “monarch” with “long robes and crown”Why is the wife of a King called Queen, but the husband of a Queen is a prince?
