JF: give me a break.
What if they don’t want you peeking in at all even if by accident?
And for blazes sake–why do you care if they lock their door? How are you possibly taking offense to it?
For the host: If you don’t trust them, don’t invite them. It’s that simple.
Let’s say you mostly trust them, so would be willing to have them stay but only if you lock your bedroom. Should you invite them? What if they will have a hard time finding another place?
The funniest thing is when someone snoops in the medicine cabinet and everything falls out!
When you say funniest, you mean creepiest, right?
Anyone who would snoop in a medicine cabinet deserves to be shot.
JF: Why? Why should they clean it instead of locking it? Why? To avoid what?
Oomis: I like you stand up for the underdog. It’s a good middah. Hasehm is mevakesh the nirdaf. (Really, I’m not being condescending.)
I’m suprised such a law isn’t being challenged by those who want freedom from religion in Israel, like Meretznikim. While a law enforcing sabbath observance does promote one aspect of Jewish identity for the medina, it is also obviously at odds with religious freedom and can be seen as coercive.
1. I’m sure it is.
2. Israel doesn’t have our 1st amendment.
This, presumably, was not a surprise visit though. The hosts had time to put away any articles of clothing or trash that were in plain sight (it really only takes a minute).
So they should clean up their room (only for a minute) to avoid the HUGE offense of locking the door.
Interesting. Likely.
Really, the camp didn’t articulate their reason very well. The real reason is they want the counselors to be role models generally for the hashkafa they want to teach, and presumably you didn’t have those hashkafos. I don’t know why they said a stupid reason like seeing you in pants on an off day.
Why do they need to be HUGELY embarrassed to take the HUGE step of locking the door?
What reason on earth is there to NOT lock the door? Presumably the homelenders didn’t think the borrower was psycho and would be offended by nothing (and if they did, then that is why).
Is chofetzchaim gonna meet up with JF02 while he’s in vegas?????
Goq: Excellent.
For blazes sake:
1. I believe OP was only looking for the right room. But probably they told OP how to find it.
2. There is nothing untoward about them locking the rooms; if only so you won’t walk in accidentally, or so that your kids (if you brought) won’t walk in accidentally. And especially since you should never have even noticed.
3. Untoward or not, there is nothing “creepy” about it.
But it wasn’t the end.
The way the vaccine worked, was it caused you to clone a boy who would be right for you, and even out the imbalance (the boy was also autistic, obviously).
But rivky had forgotten to adjust the thergolometer when she was making it, and therefore had added too much theoglympton. The vaccine didn’t stop after one clone and kept popping out more and more.
Now there were clones and clones with no girls to marry. An angry mob of autistic clones wandered the beis medrash, living on thursday night cholent and scratching their armpits menacingly at anyone who tried to bum a cigarette. They kept their cellphones even in BMG, and wore white shirts in chofetz chaim. They loitered outside shadchanim’s houses, and also Deli 52, and also the pizza shops, and also the UN building though nobody knew why.
And then the clones started cloning. And the clone clones started cloning. The beis medrash spilled out onto the streets and it was like chavrusah tumult every day. Deli 52 spilled out onto its street and it was like kapparos every day. The chofetz chaim guys spilled out into Landers and it was like tuesday night every day. The shadchanim barricaded themselves into their homes and it was like tu-b’shvat every day.
And then the cry went up “rivky, rivky, it was rivky”. What was rivky? Who was rivky? Nobody knew, except for writersoul.
What a chillul Hashem. Do you think Moshe rabeinu took off his hat and jacket in the midbar?
That doesn’t sound creepy at all.
The only creepy part is as OOM pointed out.
rd: that wasn’t an ad hominem attack. It was the opposite of one, actually.
An ad hominem attack is where you attack ideas because of the person who said them.
This was attacking the person who said them because of the ideas he said.
And I agree with the attack, in this case. I don’t know how you can have the arrogance to say such things about tosfos, and I really have nothing to discuss with you in the matter of religion anymore.
I still think you’re a nice guy, and I still like to chat with you. But we do not practice the same religion, and I have no interest in interfaith dialogue.
I am making a ????. People who shudder should make a thread for the object of their shuddering. If they don’t shudder enough to make a thread, then they don’t really shudder.
Ok, so OOM seems to have brought snorting to the CR. Now, I know that I brought snorting to my family, so I wonder if I got it from the CR (and from OOM).
So I searched my email, and the first time I used it in the CR sense was on 7/27/11. Previous to that, I once posted in the CR on 5/16/11 about the regents and wrote “Regents. Snort.” (http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/menahels-decision-to-expel-a-good-boy/page/2?#post-247633), and on 5/2/11 when they got bin laden, I emailed my friend who is an Army Ranger and said “Seals. Snort. The rangers would have gotten him alive.”
So my real starting time is 7/27/11.
bump
Sure, it’s called rye bread.
We will outlive them
I agree with you. Not a very convincing article.
Other chat rooms online are scattered with personal slurs.
This is what makes the CR different.
m’heicha teisi we are different?
We have heated arguments, we troll, we poke fun, but we cannot make personal insults.
We don’t troll.
fellow members of CR:
i’ve only known shopping613 for a day, but still…. we’ll miss you gal!
Sure, nothing weird about this post.
Do the Devils path!!!!!

Kol Kevudah Bas Melech Penima is far more compromised when a woman has to go to work to support her family, than by a once a month ceremony.
Not really, because it depends what the need is. For a woman to go out and support her husband in learning is a great need, and can counterbalance large needs. For a woman to go mumble kiddush levana is not a very great need, and does not counterbalance much.
I’m not sure why you are asking who is right. Who cares who is right? Right now, you have a situation where your parents and siblings aren’t talking to you and your wife. Surely, whatever issue there was is less important than that.
Charliehall- Why would you do something against the Halcha, especially if there are easy ways to comply WITH the Halahca??
That isn’t really fair. Charlie stated that not all poskim agree with this, and that he is following his poskim. I personally don’t know enough about the issue to know who holds what, but it is possible there are legitimate poskim who are matir.
Popa, sometimes your comments are funny and other times they are just completely unneeded.
Thank you. That is another very important lesson for marriage. Sometimes your spouse will say things that you appreciate a lot, and sometimes will say stuff that is frankly kind of inane. But you appreciate them for who they are anyway.
When I get married, I’m totally gonna post my marital problems on YWN.
Cewl.
“I am sure they spend less per capita on police”
Conservatives sometimes forget that government can save lives.
That is not an intellectually honest point. The debate between conservatives and liberals does not concern spending for police, parks, highways, or electrcity grids. It concerns spending for food stamps, section 8, medicaid, obamacare, obamaphones (“I vote for obama because he gives us cell phones”), etc. It concerns the main purpose of the tax code which according to all tax academics is to redistribute wealth.
So don’t condescend us. Don’t lecture us about spending for roads and policemen.
You forgot:
Rochel’s double. Snuck in after Rochel was given the vaccine which really did cause autism (and did not cure the shidduch crisis), and switched places with the real Rochel to pretend that it didn’t cause autism but did cure the shidduch crisis.
Complicated. It depends. It depends what we decide on how bad it was.
Would you rather live in a country where they data mine phone calls for terrorism, or where the people working for the intelligence spill their secrets and run away to Hong Kong.
Back at the hidden lab, Rivky was observing the results of her newest version of the vaccine. She gently woke up one of the girls and looked for the tell-tale signs.
“Rochel, rochel,” she whispered.
“hello rivky, good morning, how does it look?, rochel responded”
“Blast it! Still nothing. Would this never work?” The most annoying part was that the cure was actually working very well. All the girls who had been injected thought they were happily married within a few hours. But try as she might, Rivky was unable to get the vaccine to cause autism. And there was no chance she’d be able to convince people the vaccine worked if it didn’t cause autism.
Lauren’s triple was not breathing any sighs of relief tonight. It was easy pretending to not pretend to not know how orthodox women acted. She had work to do.
Wearing a white skirt, and a kiki riki shell under an otherwise not tznius blouse, she began nailing together a big crate to hide inside for the flight to Juneau. Wouldn’t her double be surprised when she jumped out and freed rivky.
Oops, almost forgot! She quickly rolled up her sleeve (tzniusly) and injected the next dose of the latest version of the shidduch crisis vaccine. “That was close”, she thought, not breathing any sighs of relief. “A few more minutes and I’d have been a NASI statistic.”
