too bad there’s no view counter.
thanks to mexipal for idea.
August 13, 2010 7:44 pm at 7:44 pm #1005368aries2756ParticipantI don’t get it. Are you trying to see who wants to read loshan horah or did you want to discuss the evils of loshan horah?
August 13, 2010 7:49 pm at 7:49 pm #1005369SJSinNYCMemberPopa, I looked. But that’s because I knew it would be some thing of the sort 🙂
August 13, 2010 7:49 pm at 7:49 pm #1005370WolfishMusingsParticipantI thought it was a thread about lashon hara… not necessarily a thread containing LH.

August 13, 2010 7:51 pm at 7:51 pm #1005371squeakParticipantAw, I thought you were going to post a deleted post 😉
We are testing to see who will open this thread despite its title.
Four so far.
August 13, 2010 7:53 pm at 7:53 pm #1005372☕️coffee addictParticipantI figured i wouldn’t know the guy since i’m not from where you are and probably never even heard of the guy.
You know there’s an issur of lifnei eeveir so whenever someone would check it you might be getting a lav, right?
August 13, 2010 8:00 pm at 8:00 pm #1005373WolfishMusingsParticipantWe are testing to see who will open this thread despite its title.
Yes, but the title wasn’t clear enough to prove that one was looking to sin when opening.

Excuses, excuses…
August 13, 2010 8:04 pm at 8:04 pm #1005374popa_bar_abbaParticipantAugust 13, 2010 8:05 pm at 8:05 pm #1005375smartcookieMemberI KNEW it aint loshon horah. When someone write loshon horah, they don’t spell it out so clearly…they usually deny it.
August 13, 2010 8:06 pm at 8:06 pm #1005376aries2756ParticipantI don’t know about the rest of you, but I don’t find this amusing. I have a problem with all the loshan horah, judging, motzi shem rah that has been going on in all these blogs, and I though this was going to be a discussion about “dan l’kaf zchus” and how to stop spreading loshan horah.
August 13, 2010 8:18 pm at 8:18 pm #1005377WolfishMusingsParticipantExcuses, excuses…
Very well. Yes, I sinned when I opened this thread. And I’m sinning again by lying about it now. So I’m twice a sinner. And I’m sure that boasting about your sin is also a sin, making me a thrice-sinner. And I’m sure there’s a special place in hell reserved for people who use “high-falutin” words like “thrice.” Furthermore, I’m also fairly certain that it’s sinner for a person to suggest that you know who’s going to hell or not, since they clearly aren’t God who is the ultimate arbiter of final destinations… let’s see that makes at least six sins.
So, are you going to condemn me to six sins, or accept my original statement?
The Wolf
August 13, 2010 8:22 pm at 8:22 pm #1005378squeakParticipantExcuses? No, we plainly were looking for some juicy deleted posts. The least you could have done was oblige us.
August 13, 2010 9:58 pm at 9:58 pm #1005379popa_bar_abbaParticipantChanan Bisha: I know, you are still funnier. I’m working on it.
August 13, 2010 10:06 pm at 10:06 pm #1005380oomisParticipant1) I believed this to be a thread about the evils of L”H, the risk part being that we would be getting mussar about our own inability to refrain from L”H.
2) Are you not guilty of lifnei iveir lo tetain michshol, if your intention was to entice us into opening something that you thought we would take to be L”H?? NOT NICE!
August 13, 2010 10:14 pm at 10:14 pm #1005381squeakParticipantLet me help you. I’ll post a deleted post for this thread, and then you can do the same. Here it is:

Well, so far nobody has admitted to expecting to find lashon hara.
August 13, 2010 11:00 pm at 11:00 pm #1005383mexipalParticipantthanks for taking my idea to heart
August 14, 2010 7:26 pm at 7:26 pm #1005384emoticon613Memberwell it certainly piqued my interst…but honestly, can anyone have thought that it would realy contain L”H?? no one who’s about to say lashon hara would announce it, unless we’re talking about that character in “We want life” i forgot his name….
August 15, 2010 2:26 am at 2:26 am #1005385☕️coffee addictParticipantpopa I sort of did in a way
August 15, 2010 2:55 am at 2:55 am #1005386Lakewood MomMemberI thought they were giving hilchos loshon horah! Too bad!

Wow, sounds like a pretty full day 🙂

i lol’d 😀
mexipal, you’re a bum 😀
August 15, 2010 7:48 am at 7:48 am #1005390morahParticipantoh shucks…my hopes dashed. where can you go for a good piece of lashon hara these days?
August 15, 2010 8:26 am at 8:26 am #1005391whatrutalkingabtMemberI figured that our trusted moderaters wouldnt post a thread that was LH
But out of curiosity, just what are you trying to accomplish? To see how bad we are in the area of LH?
And then what? Will you give us mussar shmuessin?
August 15, 2010 2:12 pm at 2:12 pm #1005392Aishes ChayilParticipantPopa Bar Abba says;
‘too bad there’s no view counter.’
Is that how you fill up your time? Trying to prove how bad people can be??
Why did you not post something like ‘A Wonderful idea for a Mitzvah’
or ‘Some tips on how to do Teshuvah’.
Or if you dont want to be a ‘holier than thou’ dont test us at all!
Can someone pls explain what these two members of G-*d’s PolicE force wanted to accomplish??
August 15, 2010 3:22 pm at 3:22 pm #1005393popa_bar_abbaParticipantI’m not trying to accomplish anything. Just amusing myself. That’s why it’s posted in the “Humor and entertainment” forum.
August 15, 2010 3:51 pm at 3:51 pm #1005394whatrutalkingabtMemberWell its not funny. Not in Elul when we are supposed to be trying to show the Bais Din Shel Maaleh how good Klal Yisroel is. Instead you are helping the prosecuter by tallying up the numbers of people who willingly want to hear LH.
August 15, 2010 4:08 pm at 4:08 pm #1005395popa_bar_abbaParticipantwhat are you talking about: whtryutlkingabt? Like I said, nobody has admitted they thought they were going to be reading lashon hara.
August 15, 2010 4:18 pm at 4:18 pm #1005396popa_bar_abbaParticipant2 more points.
A. I obviously thought nobody would click on it and it would be a zchus for us.
B. My rebbi taught us that yom kippur is yom ki”purim” and that you should make leitzonus in elul. (He also taught us to wipe out zochor Amalek.) I think I’ll stab him with a spear.
August 15, 2010 4:27 pm at 4:27 pm #1005397whatrutalkingabtMemberYou obviously thought that people would click on it, since your first post is “too bad there is no view counter”
You were waiting very eagerly to see how many people would be nichshal.
And besides, a couple of people did admit that they thought there would be LH. And what about all the people that clicked on it and didnt post or want to admit their shortcomings.
Stop excusing yourself and do teshuva. You can start by apologizing.
August 15, 2010 4:55 pm at 4:55 pm #1005398Aishes ChayilParticipantPopa says, in his first post
‘too bad there’s no view counter.’
OOPS…..
His last post;
A. I obviously thought nobody would click on it and it would be a zchus for us.
Gotta be careful before you push that ‘send’ button , lol!
August 15, 2010 7:21 pm at 7:21 pm #1005399funny613MemberWhy does he have to apologize? I think we should all take it more as mussar-not to be so quick to be willing to hear Loshon Hara! That was his point! That many times we are way too quick to hear and read Loshon Hara – when it is not spelled out that way! Why are we attacking him? For making a point that we can take mussar from?
And to anyone who is saying that the problem is that it is giving the Satan ‘evidence’-look around the coffee room, newspapers, community…. – how much of this gives the Satan what to say? Also, if we do something with it, it should do some good and not only bad!
Thank you popa_bar_abba for making this thread!
August 16, 2010 1:12 am at 1:12 am #1005400d aMemberA child said, “Every night, my Mommy calls her friend to read Lashon Hara!”
August 16, 2010 3:29 pm at 3:29 pm #1005401bptParticipantAfter falling for Mod-80’s joke about Wolf “talking during laining, I HAD to open this thread.
(and Torahls1 – I have no idea why your comment got squashed, but I’ll answer it on the “potch” thread later today. And don’t feel bad.. I’ve had comments squashed too.)
August 16, 2010 10:25 pm at 10:25 pm #1005402popa_bar_abbaParticipantfrom “al tarbeh sicha im ha’isha”
you should only speak for a purpose eg. “what’s for supper?” “can you quiet the kids?”
December 2, 2010 6:25 pm at 6:25 pm #1005403jhcvivgwryParticipantThis is way to obvious
1)It’s in the humor/entertainment thread
2)YWN WOULD NEVER & WILL NEVER POST LOSHON HARAH!
September 4, 2012 12:04 pm at 12:04 pm #1005404Shopping613 🌠Participant????????????BUMP!????????????
November 26, 2013 6:02 am at 6:02 am #1005405👑RebYidd23ParticipantHere’s some Lashon Hara with no identifying details:
Once someone did something wrong.
November 26, 2013 6:18 am at 6:18 am #1005406peacefullMemberWasn’t that a poor bump?
November 26, 2013 8:07 pm at 8:07 pm #1005407👑RebYidd23ParticipantIt was a perfect one.
November 28, 2013 11:05 am at 11:05 am #1005408This name is already takenParticipantDeleted
November 28, 2013 2:29 pm at 2:29 pm #1005409Little FroggieMemberOf course it was Deleted. Everything in this thread deserves to be Deleted
November 28, 2013 5:04 pm at 5:04 pm #1005410WIYMemberIt’s no longer loshon hara because everyone knows
November 28, 2013 6:17 pm at 6:17 pm #1005411HaLeiViParticipantIs it Muttar to speak Lashon Hara on Yom Kippur?
November 28, 2013 6:48 pm at 6:48 pm #1005412👑RebYidd23ParticipantNo, that was someone else. This happened more recently.
November 28, 2013 7:19 pm at 7:19 pm #1005413TinyTimMemberHaLeiVi: Only if it’s for a purpose. I would recommend studying the Halachos before doing that especially on Yom Kippur…
November 28, 2013 9:37 pm at 9:37 pm #1005414This name is already takenParticipantok lets try it like this because obviously the mods dont like LH
Last week I saw EDITED eating treif in EDITED
November 29, 2013 2:31 pm at 2:31 pm #1005416👑RebYidd23ParticipantThere were some people arrested this year for crimes they actually did.
December 1, 2013 5:06 am at 5:06 am #1005417nem621ParticipantI know the mods wouldnt let so blatant LH you should have written let me tell you what i heard of…
December 1, 2013 1:25 pm at 1:25 pm #1005418👑RebYidd23ParticipantPuh-lease. You know what CENSORED did?
