Mentch1 – Are you sure?
“My guess is you watch TV, like Sparkly. The gedolim call that assur. Does that make you and Sparkly OTD?”
Did you learn in the Mir to be Choshet B’csharim?
Is that what all your years in the Yeshiva taught you – if you want to defend yourself because you’re a smoker, attack the other guy with ever you feel like?!?
“No where in rabbinic literature have I seen a definition of OTD that revolves around smoking.”
Btw, it wasn’t me who called anyone OTD! Put down the cig, because the smoke is affecting your eyesight.
“But I have seen a definition revolving around TV. In regards to the issur of yichud a parutz does not count in terms of negating the issur yichud. There are those that hold that watching TV qualifies you as a parutz.”
So first you said I watch TV, now you’re saying I’m a Parutz.
You’re another reason why they should cancel Bein-Hazemanim!
Time to learn what Being Odom L’Chavero has to do with the 9 days!
How many Blatt did you learn after Pesach 4 or 5?!?
