The hate towards flatbush? Nothing of the sort. I just can’t figure out their pre-occupation with clock-watching. That, and the fact that they post zmanim to the minute (example: maariv is 7:28)
I get a real kick out of telling OOT (or Flatbush) visitors to our shul when they ask “what time is maariv” (becuase its not printed on the scedule)and I tell them, “its right after bentching”
“But what TIME is it??” They insist on knowing. The idea of being in limbo drives them wild. As does their obsession with clock-watching.
And as far as “minyanim all the time” besides Landaus, or the occational shteeble, try to find a minyan mincha outside of shkiya time. And you need to allow 10 minutes to get there. In BP, in a 10 minute radius, you can probably find 50 places.
There’s no place like home, there’s no place like home….
