somewhere between the title and the posts, the subject went from reform every house must have to “good seforim”.
ParticipantParticipantwhat aveira did the sheep do that he had to be misgalgeil?
ParticipantParticipant“If you’re not into chasidish stories and torah, then don’t participate in discussions pertaining to it”
Sort of like someone not into Modern orthodoxy not participating in those discussions…?ParticipantParticipantuh….me??
DuhParticipantParticipantyibul nochri
ParticipantParticipantdon’t know how u came out,, but if it’s muttar and u decide to get one, i just recently read how to catch one:
Get a wooden beam, make a pear-shaped hole, with the narrow entrance barely big enough for the gorillas two fingers, then cook some rice and put it in the wider part. When a gorilla comes to get the rice, it won’t be able to retract its fingers. Put a sack over its head, and even if u return several hours later, it will still be there, unwilling to just let go of the rice.
ParticipantParticipantsome days, oscar, no doubt.
Other days…hmmm can’t remember much of sesame street anymore. What’s bert like?Who are the characters? oscar bert ernie grover cookie monster, a real girl, i think, elmo?, big bird, ….?
ParticipantParticipantdon’t agree w/ the op on anything but the infrastructure package. It’s much needed and should stimulate the economy.
ParticipantParticipant“and always with an “o” for a cholam instead of an “oi”.”
Which is the accurate pronunciation.October 31, 2021 7:31 pm at 7:31 pm in reply to: vax mandates just shooting themselves in the leg #2022880ParticipantParticipant@Jackk the targets of these mandates are those who weren’t convinced by all the information that was put out.
As I said, these mandates will simply strengthen the resistance.
My suggestion, again, for what it’s worth: Show some optimism in the vaccine. Let the government themselves show they believe in it. From the onstart of the vaccines there was but skepticism, pessimism, blaming Trump, and threats.
Like I said, put out something positive.Will it work? I don’t know.
But I don’t think shoving it down everyone’s throats is the answer.October 28, 2021 9:15 pm at 9:15 pm in reply to: vax mandates just shooting themselves in the leg #2022098ParticipantParticipant@jackk
I’m not honestly sure, but I don’t think this is the way.
They should give out–maybe once a month, not more–sugar sweet statistics about how COVID is declining due to the vaccines, FAQs about the dangers and good answers, and, more than anything, shut their mouths about every slight variant which just discourages everyone. And urge doctors to urge their patients to get vaxxed.Part of the big hesitancy of getting jabbed is that there was such huge hype about it, a new, potentially scary vaccine (at least, some room for concern), then the hype faded, the numbers declined, and then…..EVERYONE, MASKS BACK ON, EVERYONE SCARY DELTA IS HERE. WHOEVER’S NOT GETTING VACCINATED IS MURDERING EVERYONE ELSE AND MAKING IT TERRIBLE FOR ALL THE UPSTANDING CITIZENS WHO DID THE RIGHT THING AND DID GET VAXXED.
And now it’s mandates and pink slips.
C’mon.Besides for what I wrote originally, even if they were to succeed, it would create/foster lots of ill sentiments and mistrust in the already very wobbly government.
@AbbaS was that meant for a different thread?

OK, nothing to do with my post.ParticipantParticipant“First of all, why’s it immature, second of all, let’s say it is. You can’t humor the immature?”
“I understand not encouraging immaturity. That’s not the issue here.”
Contradiction?
ParticipantParticipant“why are people always running to say oh its just for attention?”
You’re asking how people who always know everything always know everything? Because they know everything, that’s why.ParticipantParticipantThe Need for [pretending there is] Perfection is because once it’s in the open it becomes expected, normal, etc.
October 26, 2021 4:26 pm at 4:26 pm in reply to: What is the real reason for banning Jews from Israel? #2020978ParticipantParticipant“You could make aliyah”
That is their excuse. So Jews have no birthright to enter the country, but rather to become citizens of the country.RE animosity.
I find in Israel there is animosity toward “frum Anglos,” but [non – frum] Israelis in Chutz Laaretz don’t harbor such animosity towards the frum there.
Which makes sense.ParticipantParticipantThere were a couple of times, one time was more than four jets.
It happened a couple of weeks ago also.
So it’s just a symbol of solitarianism? Or it’s an alliance, should the need to fight together arise?ParticipantParticipantTroll.
ParticipantParticipant“It looks like the pro-Trump anti-Democracy crowd is as bereft of facts as usual.”
Is that a fact?ParticipantParticipantHey!
No facts allowed!ParticipantParticipant@AAQ
What did R’ Berel Wein do with the last person?ParticipantParticipantwon’t be long til I have to add Kamala.

ParticipantParticipantwhy does a man have a woman friend?
August 3, 2021 3:04 pm at 3:04 pm in reply to: Are you allowed to give Tzeddakah/charity to Non-Jews #1996770ParticipantParticipantIn “The Longest Pesach” (Shmuel Kunda), the Noda Biyehuda gave the non-Jewish baker’s non-Jewish stepson money so he wouldn’t be beaten.
ParticipantParticipant@huju
1 up til now many states have followed the guidance and are nowhere ahead in the race.
2 there is no race. a race has a finish line; covid ain’t goin anywhere. zero cases is an impossibility.
3 the cdc doesn’t know anything.
4 those defying the cdc are just futuristic individuals; they’re adhering to the cdc’s advice when they next flip the coin.ParticipantParticipantI tried replying to gh on the news page but it didn’t go thru. over here he added a crucial point, in that the law is they have to follow protocol. Ben gvir said there’s no such law. I haven’t the foggiest clue who’s right but it is a legal question. even if he violated the law there’s a humongous difference between his actions and tishler’s. if he didn’t violate the law he did nothing wrong. and it speaks volumes of someone so arrogant that not being called with an honorific makes them call for security to oust him.
he only called Tibi a terrorist after, and there’s still no comparison to tishler.
ParticipantParticipant@commonsaychel I actually do have much bigger issues which I discuss with my banker, my doctor, my psychologist, my parole officer, and my lawyer respectively. (and I won’t dare mention what I discuss with my barber…).
sorry for not discussing any of these pressing issues with you too, but I prefer your musical sympathy instead.
ParticipantParticipantsmart people caught on right away that she’s trolling. gh has just begun to entertain the prospect now after he decided the subject is exhausted (despite an open question still unanswered.)
ParticipantParticipantsome posters understand the justification of removing the hechsher is that in some level Ben & Jerry is unkosher. but it’s really far simpler. the hashgacha is not conducting business with anti Israels. the end.
ParticipantParticipantthere are no pros. my guess is it will crash at some point but that’s probably just wishful thinking.
ParticipantParticipant1 @rebe how pale?
2 in my experience the biggest impediments to moving to e”y isn’t so much the affluence but other comforts i.e. leaving family, set community, structure etc. and, of course, because Americans feel out of place there.ParticipantParticipantyou’re right but ice cream and politics also don’t mix so it’s fighting fire w fire.
ParticipantParticipantwhat came out of Georgia and Az over the past few days?
ParticipantParticipantwell, that’s pretty funny.
why isn’t everyone laughing?ParticipantParticipantonce when I was traveling, someone shared the following joke (read off a laffy taffy):
q: what flower is on your face?
a: tulips.ParticipantParticipantand because he’s Hungarian.
July 13, 2021 8:10 am at 8:10 am in reply to: Do you try on clean clothes before the 9 days? #1990958ParticipantParticipant@goldilocks
you got the drill wrong. there are supposed to be 3 sets of clothes. before taking off the first set u say “this one’s too rough.” before taking off the second you say “this one’s too soft.” and when u put on the third say “this one’s just right.”ParticipantParticipant@commonsaychel can we limit chief rabbi talk to this thread?
once I’m at it, daasyachid for cr.
reb Eliezer could (does) have the position (along with aaq) of changing the subject.ParticipantParticipantpinchik’s ribono shel olam after sefira.
ParticipantParticipantomg gh and rational! you guys are a riot!
chumra of not keeping it dry…it’s apikorsus…
hahahahahaha! ROTFL!!!!having said that, and trying to compose myself enough to type, Idk where u live, rational but it actually does rain sometimes in Israel on sukos.
ParticipantParticipantthey were actually paid for eating bagels and lox?
btw you can’t ride the subway for a nickel anymore.
ParticipantParticipantand there’s another poster on this site–I won’t mention his name–and one of his parents’ first language was Spanish and he became a Zionist.
ParticipantParticipantbut good for you for making sure both my parents’ 1st language was yiddish. i actually know someone whose mother’s first language was polish and I definitely wouldn’t want to marry him.
ParticipantParticipantjust a piece of advice: if you want your daughter to get married, don’t ask anyone to sign on terms and conditions.
ParticipantParticipantyour loss.
ParticipantParticipantsounds like she’s perfect for me.
i am extremely good looking and have a great personality. i can do a basho tonight. does that work for her?ParticipantParticipant@avik I don’t believe that story (that her parents sat shiva) for a second.
ParticipantParticipantno turning without a signal.
as I’ve mentioned like a couple hundred times already, the question of reparations comes after the assumption slavery is wrong. if you think slavery isn’t wrong, then call the emancipation proclamation woke-don’t start talking about reparations which is the next step.
@health can u post some substance? which of my assertions is incorrect? that ethics are based on an underlying philosophy? that a core philosophy can’t evolve over time? these are very simple questions that takes shorter to answer than to send me to college. (how conservative of you.)I never studied ethics, nor do I plan on it. I hear tell ethics courses in college glorify perversion, a position that I’m certain a believing Christian like you doesn’t agree with. what I have posted is called logic. something you’re not very familiar with and something that, unfortunately, can’t be taught.
ParticipantParticipanthardly free.
