Sparkly: “coffee addict – whos joe?”
Joseph.
Lilmod,
The mods should answer that question they’re the ones that make subtitles
“Lilmod,
The mods should answer that question they’re the ones that make subtitles”
Thanks CA. I didn’t know that. I think there may be a rule about the same person not having more then one “name”, so if it’s from the Mods, I’m guessing it’s a joke?
No
@ Moderators: So does that mean that Joe really has a few usernames?
Had. I don’t know of any others currently.
Oh my, conversations about Joseph still dominate the Coffee Room!?
No, not dominate, just sprinkle for the uninformed
Moderators: how would you know if it’s the same person? Did we have to give over any personal information when we signed up?
If you want information about a poster it would be best to ask them themselves
Joseph: Why in the world would you have used Likud for a username of all things?
Moderators: Chas v’shalom! I wasn’t asking for information about a poster.You mentioned above that you know that Joseph had a few usernames. I was curious as to how you would know that. That’s all. Not very important.
Lilmod,
Have you read Rabbi Ginzburg’s article? Someone told me this week, that because of that article, he is writing a letter to his ex after hating her for so long. This is from the most eidel and sweet man I know, who I would never imagine hating anyone.
Geordie613 – no, I haven’t seen a Mishpacha magazine in a while. But why are you davka asking me to read it???
Geordie613 -“he is writing a letter to his ex after hating her for so long. This is from the most eidel and sweet man I know, who I would never imagine hating anyone.”
I don’t hate my ex, but the ones that caused my divorce!
Because 6 days ago, you thanked me for the info.
Incidentally, i noticed that the article has been put on this site http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/news/headlines-breaking-stories/459491/the-hidden-world-of-shidduchim—by-rav-aryeh-zev-ginzberg.html
Rabbosai, zats mich mochel.
Sparkly, I would like to ask you mechila again in case I wrote anything that hurt you since I last asked mechila.
While you all are busy forgiving all the people you may have wronged, don’t for get to forgive yourself as well. S’shteit “b’tzedek tishpote amisecha.” you are also “amisecha” so judge yourself favorably as well.
Elul is almost over!!
Sparkly – please let me know that you are moichel me! Thanks!
And I would like to wish you a Gmar Chasima Tova and a really wonderful year! You should have clarity with all of your decisions, find a great therapist and a way to pay for her/him, and make the best decisions regarding seminary and your life plans! You should have Simchas Hachaim, meaning in life, wonderful friends who are good for you emotionally and spiritually, and B’ezras Hashem find the right guy at the right time!!!!
Joseph: “Rabbosai, zats mich mochel.”
Translation?
“Please forgive me.”
Thanks Joseph.
It’s Erev Rosh Chodesh Elul, Rabbosai. They say that in Elul even the fish give zich ah tzitter. What’s pshat? There are two kinds of animals. Warm blooded animals and cold blooded animals. And the fish, in the cold sea, are the coldest blooded animals. And even they tzitter from Elul.
Can we do any less?
“Cold-blooded” life-forms are those that do not generate heat internally – all of them are identically
cold-blooded. In any case, shivering from fear has nothing to do with body temperature.To borrow the immortal request of my dear friend, that I cannot better verbalize:
I request mechila from anyone and everyone who I have hurt or wronged. This includes both those who post and those who only read posts. Whether I have been too harsh, angry, insulting, flippant, dismissive, thoughtless, wrongly suspicious, misleading, not helpful where I could have been, or guilty of any other action (or lack thereof) that caused pain, I ask for your forgiveness.
Nobody on this site needs to ask for my mechila, because any offense toward me was minimal and I am mochel it.

Wishing a ksiva vachasima tova to all the fine people here and all Klal Yisroel.
Coffee Addict – I apologize if I hurt your feelings in any way. I think I may have written something that upset you when I first joined the CR about a year ago. I don’t remember my exact words, but I do know that since then, I became aware of certain halachos regarding tochacha that I was not aware of at the time, so it’s very possible that I was nechshol in how I phrased things.
If so, I sincerely apologize and I hope you are moichel me.
With best wishes for a Kesiva v’Chasima Tova!
PS: please let me know if you see this.
To all of my fellow Posters:
Please let me know if I have offended you in any way so that I can have the opportunity to ask mechila.
If you are not comfortable doing so, please accept my apologies and please try to find it in your heart to be moichel me. I am sure that I did not mean to hurt your feelings (if I did do so)
Unlike Joseph, I am not a tzadik (es) and can’t promise to be moichel anyone who hurt me if they don’t make a point of apologizing, although I will try to do so.
sorry been hurt way too bad; not so quick
You’re not talking about me, are you? I don’t know think I even know who you are.
The Coffee Room is a forum that at times discusses very important issues. This can elevate the passions of its participants and sometimes hurtful words are exchanged. It’s therefore very appropriate that forgiveness is requested and granted, especially at this solemn time of the year.
However, if a poster spews a constant stream of cruelty, there is no way they can repent. Whether this person is being sincere in their beliefs or just trolling. Even if they issue a sincere-sounding blanket apology. Many of those who were hurt will not see that apology or simply not choose to forgive, especially when entire groups of people were targeted.
Yom Kippur does not atone for sins committed against our fellow Jews. A person who so stridently judges, maligns, impugns and hurts others, both individually and collectively has placed themselves in a very precarious position.
Phil – personally, I think that if you have a specific issue with a specific thing that a poster wrote, you should find a way to let them know – politely and also privately, if possible. That’s just my opinion.
Please be mochel me, I am mochel all here, the coffee room is a family we may disagree with each other or sometimes mock others opinions but I don’t think any one here would be offended unless they did care about their fellow jew here. Am Yisroel Chai.
Mochel Loch, Mochel Loch, Mochel Loch.
P.S. This is the 10th consecutive year this thread has been used for this purpose.
<bump>
א גוט יום טוב וגמר חתימה טובה!!
ביטע זיי מיר מוחל
I would like to ask everyone to be Mochel me (from the user name or from any of my other usernames) if I have ever offended anyone, I am mochel everyone in the CR! Kesiva vicahsima tovah to all!
@syag hi I remember you said I offended you but I’m still not clear how and why, just that it was somewhere on a 19 page thread. So if you are still offended, id like to sort it now that I’m not being bombarded by hundreds of messages. Please let me know how I offended you so I can clarify matters and apologise if necessary. Thanks 🙂
Ksiva Vachasima Toiva lshana toiva umesuka
a yid asked mechila of another yid who lives in his area. he replies that there is no reason for you to ask mechila, you didnt even talk to me the past year. to wich he replied, thats why i am asking mechila, for not talking to you who lives in the same area
knaidlach: What’s the ending — was he mochel?
Rabbosai, Elul!
In the 12th year of this thread I once again humbly ask for all your forbearance and forgiveness for all slights real and perceived.
Someone who ashames someone in public, how does he ask mechila?
I am not mochel anyone who is a troll.
Then again, I am one, so I’m not mochel myself. Which means I need to do teshuva. But I can’t, cuz that wouldn’t be very troll-like of me. So I need to just be mochel myself. But I’m not mochel any trolls. But…
Gevalt, what should I do?!
devny, Thw barber shaves those and only those who don’t shave themselves. Who shaves the barber?
Bertrand Russel ParadoxI am mochel everyone who voted for the current resident of the WH…well, almost everyone. By 2020, B’YH, you will have seen the done tshuvah at the polls
Mochel Loch, Mochel Loch, Mochel Loch.
Joseph, I want to ask mechila from you. I hope the 3 .oichel lochs include me as well. Although many of your posts bothered me, I don’t care anymore. I shouldn’t have gotten personal, I hope you forgive my harsh words to you.
And if I have hurt anyone else, please forgive me as well.
I say moichel loch, moichel loch, moichel loch as well.
Ah git gebentched your to all.
Philosopher, I’m 100% mochel even though I don’t remember anything you’ve ever done that necessitates mechila. Thank you for your mechila.
And I ask everyone else for mechila too. And grant the same.
Gmar Chasima Tova
Let’s all be michel one another. I hope you all can be mochel me.
Gmar Chasima Tova
Rabbosai, ich vil beiten mechila fun der gantze oilem for anything I might have done or actually did or even if it was perceived by anyone that I did or said anything inappropriate or offensive.
Bitte zats mir moichel, please.
Sometimes I use expressions that hurt people, so I ask mechila from everyone, beit mechila fun yeder einer.
Sometimes I miss someone’s posts and fail to ask a question, and the poster may feel that his position is unquestionable. Sorry for that?
