I saw threads that bash other yidden (a favourite target id Chabad, but any other frum yid is fair game), and it bothered me.
I posted harshly to some, but the yetzer hara of bashing other yidden is too much fun for everyone to give up. I needed a method that would change the conversation, open new threads that were outrageous, funny, interesting, challenging and quirky – and let the topics bashing of other yidden die on its own.
Magicians create “magic” by misdirection. It is is a form of deception in which the performer draws audience attention to one thing to distract it from another.
I was not trolling just to get a reaction. I was drawing fire so that I can be the “target”, bash me instead of bashing of other yidden stop.
I created a few threads that were funny, entertaining and really wacky. I was waving these threads like a matador waving a red cape to entice the bull to charge at him. and the bulls charged. Some of you saw red. Even a few mods did too, but other mods saw it for what it was: a challenge to get the bulls to charge at me, and leave other frum yidden alone while engaging in unusual Torah topics.
I think it worked…and if so my job is done.
Thank you mods, thank you friends and foes. If I caused anyone to get a coranary or bust a vein in their forhead, I ask mechila – but you deserved it and you need to chill a bit
And my sefer – that was a joke, I have a weird sense of humour, but the Torah that was discussed in real and a zchus for YW to get us a cabal of moshev leitzim, to focus on halacha and yiddishkeit – kol hakavod..
Have a Chag Kosher V’sameach, and don’t worry about eating eggs with cheese – eggs aren’t fleishig (they are only aiver min ha’chai).
Some mods won’t allow this, others will. Like many things: it’s a machlokes haposkim.
“Some mods won’t allow this, others will. Like many things: it’s a machlokes haposkim.”
It’s gotten to be seemingly arbitrary lately. Those of us who maintain intentionally divisive accounts play roulette with every post. About 50% or more of my posts get mod’d out lately (ever since Purim) regardless of their content. I seem to be blocked from commenting on the homepage altogether.
I believe some mods would like to block my account altogether, but others would not. So, depending on who’s shift it is, I might not get through at all. But, we’ll never know because this will probably get blocked. I think it’s the morning shift guys that hate me. I wish they would just go ahead and confirm that so that I can stop wasting my time typing.
I believe most of your origin story as presented here, RGP, but I still suspect there’s more to it. It looked to me more like you came in as a Chabad-party-line purest at first and then changed course to throw us off the scent.
We’re not blocking you on purpose. You must’ve done something to upset the automatic spam filter – all of your posts are going to spam. Sorry for the inconvenience. We’re working on it.
Rebbitzen Goldenpickanicerscreenname,
If you wanted to play-act the Chofetz Chaim in the wagon, you should’ve killed horses, not halachos.
The Magen Avraham says by lighting yom tov candles איין חכמה לאשה..
You were writing troll posts in the same style in 2012.
Of all your silly trolliy posts this was the worst
I’ll be honest, I enjoyed the others while your comments were obviosuly silly, they still made me stop and think .
but this self righteous defense of being mean to stop the bashing of others is just annoying trolling
Not sure where you got the idea that some mods saw what you claim. None did. However they did indeed see it for what it really was.
“but this self righteous defense of being mean to stop the bashing of others is just annoying trolling ”
agreed. besides the fact that this style was already in place years ago, the idea of berating and mocking people in order to get them to stop doing exactly that is bizarre.
” but the yetzer hara of bashing other yidden is too much fun for everyone to give up”
this is the best line yet – where you are almost able to be honest with yourself….. but then ….
“and I was certain you are a Chabadsker, while pretending to be non-Chabad, yet quoting Baal Hatanya”
But, see, if I were a Lubavitcher, I would not have said what I said about the Rebbe and the modern day Chassidus; no Lubavitcher would do that even as a joke. Nor would any Litvak defend the slander of our gedolim even while in the process of an elaborate prank/joke. That was where you ruined your chances of convincing anyone you were a yeshivish person trolling for peace.
Anyway, I’m fascinated by this thread, but I don’t want to post too much. Sounds like a pain if the mods have to keep checking the spam folder just because of me. Sorry my mind immediately assumed there was a massive YWN conspiracy against me, guys.
At least we now know that Rabbetzin Goldenstehdusjr davens nusach sefer (no kulam kedoshim added in Ashkenaz)
Rebetzin sounds like someone that used to post here that starts with an a
Just saying
Re: massive conspiracy
The hypochondriac was on to something. His tombstone reads,, ” I told you so !”
This Person is certifiably deranged, and a nasty troublemaker. She/He/It should be permanently blocked. Attitudes and writing styles don’t change much, if the SN changes you can still spot this wacko.
“If I caused anyone to get a coranary or bust a vein in their forhead, I ask mechila – but you deserved it ”
This is probably the most serious of all the halachos you have ridiculed. As someone else mentiones it just proves that you are willing to forgo Hashem’s “agenda” for your own. You may be surprised to discover that halacha does not agree with your version of heroism.

They had to attest at eglah arifa that they did not contribute to the death by not escorting him and being respponsible on his demise.
Apparently the referenced poster has a lot of time on their hands. I do wonder why all the trolling, but I read a couple of posts early on and just decided to ignore the poster. Trolling is usually an attention seeking device. Intellectual curiosity not so much.
Why did the oray miklot resident stay there untl the dearh of kohen gadol? because he did not daven for them, similarly here, maybe the beis din should have davened also for them.
RG, Both the Even Ezra and the Chezkuni say the they were suppose to protect the dangerous roads that contributed to the death of the individual.
