    Blinky – are you on line? I want to be sure you saw the post I made about you on the “thanks to Aries” thread. I meant what I said, and would hate to see it slip past you.

    Of lesser importance is a compliment I paid you on the “who would you be for a day’ thread, as I’m sure your FLOODED with compliments (but still, you can never be too rich or too complimented 🙂

    ” I’m very grouchy at night 🙂 “

    Hmm.. Agent (who says, knows you personaly) seems to feel like the assesment was pretty accurate.

    At any rate, hope your few days aways were for something pleasant

    Hey Blinky, I think you are being to hard on yourself about being grouchy at night….or maybe it’s because you have to babysit more often since I am not there lol!! JK 🙂

    She’s probably an older sib who either just got married, or went off to EY

    Maybe it’s her chosson and she’s not saying cuz she doesn’t wanna identify herself?

    #1100798

    That would fit too.. The past few days she was dating, and not avail for babysitting. Now with Chosson off to EY to finish the zman, she cannot claim to be out and about and too busy to babysit.

    Hmm.. c’mon Blinky. Does Smartcookie have it right?

    Sorry BPT and Smartcookie you both totally have it wrong!!(I am definitely not her chosson!) It might help to look at other posts from me on different topics to figure out how I know Blinky but I think that Blinky and I will keep that a secret!!

    BPT I know you visit here, i just have to post this for you, figured ill give you a laugh…someone i know (older, and married) mentioned to me that theres this discussion room on YW and i never read it but i just had time and i read a thread about a bnos chava interview and this BP Totty whoever he is, posted some real funny things! lol

    You’re right about me checking the GS thread; I almost treat it like a message board.

    Think my Bnos Chava posts were funny? Have her read the “funny answers trick questions” post. THAT was funny (at least, I thought so)

    And don’t think I don’t spot you from time to time on other threads; I know you favor the riddle threads, but you really ought to jump into the pit every so often. A little dirt under your fingernails / grime on your face is healthy. It builds your immune system, and makes for a much more fun CR visit!

    try explaining that to my doctor!

    For real? Which doctor would not advise getting some exercise? (either mental or physical). Flexing your limbs and mind every so often keeps you in shape for when you really need to claw it out (and believe me, there will be days in your future that you will need to fight back).

    Don’t wait for the fire alarm bell to ring; practice now!

    1. Rosh Chodesh Shevat resolution: No more 3 page posts.

    2. Someone needs to format GS into a book and get it published.

    I was going to start a new thread called the “Dubious Distinction Awards”, but since so few can be given out, I figured this is the place for it.

    This week’s award goes to Sacrilege for posting a comment so outrageous, it shut down a thread.

    Congrats, Sac!

    (I was almost the winner last week, but instead of shutting down, I was just deleted, and the thread kept going, so close, but no cigar.)

    I once tried to start a thread where we would all post if one of our posts had closed a thread, but it wasn’t let up.

    That thread was shut down because of me?!

    I thought it was shut down because some posters were saying things that insulted other members. (Hence the creation of the apology thread)

    …and I thought I was drawing such a beautiful picture of cshapiro.

    I thought the final straw was the line, “funky, in a ______ sort of way”

    (don’t wanna say the name, as it might get GS4 shut down!)

    Lubavitch is a bad word now?

    I didnt mean it derogatorily, I just wanted everyone to understand the picture I had in my mind… 🙂

    No, but my guess was, it was understood as a categorization of how “they” dress, when its only a portion of the crowd that dresses that way.

    However, since the word made it past the mods, maybe that was not the crusher, so gimme back that trophy!

    People say, “dressed like a Chassidish lady” technically not all Chassidish woman dress a certain way, but you get the gist of what the person is saying…

    Not giving it back, NO BACKSIES!

    Semantics, but I know what you meant in either case. I spend a great deal of time in Willi and CH (BP is no rayeh; we’re the melting pot / launching pad for people who are still undecided)

    And for what its worth, I must have some CH in my blood, as I feel more at home there than anywhere else. If only I could get used to the yiddish with the non-Galitzaneh accent!

    BPT- I think it’s rather the later posts that come in that close the thread. Otherwise they wouldn’t post Sac’s post either.

    I imagine some posts came in and didn’t belong up here.

    #1100818

    which thread are we talking about?

    Wow I have obviously not been in the coffee room for a looong time (though I did poke my head in for a drop a while back but that doesn’t really count) I should get to know the new guys. Hi guys! (Or gals if you so happen to be one and depending if you don’t have a problem anonymously speaking with the opposite gender (reference to GS 1 or 2 I forget which)

    This is one of my favorite threads, you can post ANYTHING in here (as long as its mod approved)

    Sac- wanted to tell you i personally am awarding you with the best post- in the spouse looking alike thread that comment about hoping your husband doesn’t loook like you got me rolling! Don’t know why but for some reason i could not stop laughing!

    And Sac, while you’re basking in the aura of fame, take your trophy off the mantle and scratch out the word “dubious” becuase the comment you made on the “house keeping” thread was a real winner. (the one about doing things yourself to build a relationship).

    That kind of attitude is what will get you engaged and keep you happily married. In fact, consider keeping it handy, so you can hand it over in exchange for the ring.

    You mean the name switch? No, I was serious. I thought it was really rude of me to take that name as my own.

    Think of it; inadvertently, I was the cause of making people call me “totty” with a capitol T.

    That title only belongs to the person who is truly you father or your Avinu Shebashomayim.

    It was time for a reality check, so bpt it is. Its still my defining persona, but for the general public, it needed to come down a notch.

    In your case, I’ll make an exception, as you’ve been using BPT for some time. Just wish you’da pointed out my error earlier in the game.

    Mods:

    Was the thread about the new film deleted because of me? I didn’t mean for that to happen.

    eclipse:

    I’m not sure why the thread was deleted, but seeing that it was active only over the weekend (when some people probably missed it) maybe its worth posting the info again…?

    eclipse~ I think I may owe you an apology, re: your nightmare thread that was closed, probably cuz of me 🙁 .. I had asked you your sign, & then automatically thought that you had responded, but apparently it was a male, & then someone else posted, too. I dunno why I thought it was a private conversation between us. and apparently it was considered inappropraite CR material. so.. sorry!
