    There are certain topics we rarely discuss here, such as seminary, shidduchim, Zionism, tznius, college, politics and of course serious topics such as halacha and mussar. But it is very important, so here is some MUSSAR FOR ALL YOU CR PEOPLE!
    I don’t mean to shout, BUT LOOK AT THE STATE OF THE WORLD TODAY AND YOU WON’T BE ABLE TO TELL ME THAT IT’S WRONG TO SHOUT. Due to population growth, FAR MORE PEOPLE ARE DOING AVEIROS TODAY THAN EVER BEFORE. On the city bus today I saw a woman holding a baby EITHER WITHOUT A WIG, OR WITH A VERY REALISTIC ONE. Assuming she was both married and Jewish (which is probably true because we all know that people never board city buses with their nieces, nephews, or siblings who are also babies), THIS IS A SERIOUS AVEIRAH. MARRIED WOMEN HAVE TO COVER THEIR HAIR. (Though I admit most hold that one does not have to put a wig on a baby.)
    ALSO, YOU PEOPLE HAVE TO THINK A LOT MORE ABOUT THE SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES OF YOUR ACTIONS. I’m a big tzaddik because I think about the VERY REAL, SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES of your actions all the time.
    ALSO, YOU MUST ALWAYS BE CAREFUL NOT TO THROW AWAY BREAD. I don’t eat bread because I’M DISGUSTED TO GO TO THE GROCERY STORE AND LOOK UPON ALL THE PEOPLE WHO aren’t disgusted to go to the same grocery store as people who are possibly the same people who throw away bread.
    ALL THE PROBLEMS OF THE WORLD ARE YOUR FAULT, BUT YOU CAN’T FIX IT BECAUSE WHATEVER YOU DO WILL NEVER BE ENOUGH. I am telling you to STOP GIVING IN TO THE YETZER HARA and WORK ON YOURSELF. DON’T STOP UNTIL YOU ARE AS PERFECT AS ME. I am saddened by the way people feel they are entitled to government programs. YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOURSELF. NOBODY ELSE IS RESPONSIBLE TO SUPPORT YOU, ESPECIALLY THE GOVERNMENT.
    Also, all around me I see people getting jobs. JOBS ARE NOTHING MORE THAN BITTUL TORAH. Do you think that after 120 what matters is a job? No! All that matters is torah.
    But also, apparently not only is Torah learning not the only thing you have to do, but it goes as far that for some reason IF YOU DON’T GET ATTACKED PHYSICALLY OR VERBALLY AND REMAIN SILENT, EVERYTHING ELSE THAT YOU EVER DID IS WORTH NOTHING. I get attacked physically or verbally all the time because the reshaim of the world can’t handle being around someone so holy, and I REMAIN SILENT. I am so silent. I never criticize anyone online or in person.
    I WEEP SEEING THE JEWISH PEOPLE DOING SUCH AVEIROS. Like worshipping false gods. LITERALLY EVERYTHING I DON’T LIKE IS AVODA ZARA. OY. Don’t you guys realize HOW SEVERE IS THE PROHIBITION OF WORSHIPING FALSE IDOLS SUCH AS MONEY, COWS, CARS, CAPITALISM, PEOPLE OTHER THAN ME, ETC?

    And of course, very importantly, I AM ONLY SAYING THIS BECAUSE I LOVE YOU. IMAGINE IF A MOSHOL OF A YOUNG CHILD RUNNING INTO THE STREET. WHO IS MOST LIKELY TO GIVE HIM A POTCH? Not a stranger. Not his enemy. HIS MOTHER. THE PERSON WHO LOVES HIM THE MOST.
    And lastly, you must keep in mind that THE INTERNET IS ABSOLUTELY ASSUR FOR ANY REASON OR PURPOSE PERIOD. NO EXCUSES.

    It must be very lonely being the only perfect person around.
    Now I have to do something about my ears, they hurt from all that shouting.

    If you reach a high enough level like me, you’re not lonely anymore because you’re worth a billion of everyone else.

    “On the city bus today I saw a woman holding a baby EITHER WITHOUT A WIG, OR WITH A VERY REALISTIC ONE.”

    That was me. Sorry about that. You are not the first person to call me a goy because my hair is not covered. You may be the first person over 10 years old though. By the time most people reach the age of 11, they have figured out that not everyone in the world is married.

    In one school I subbed in, the kids were really confused when they saw me davening Mincha. They couldn’t understand how a goy knew how to daven Mincha.

    I wonder if I should start covering my hair in order to avoid maris ayin problems.

    Also, the woman I saw was a tragedy precisely because she looked about TWELVE OR FOURTEEN YEARS OLD AND ALREADY NEGLECTING TO COVER HER HAIR.

    Also, I don’t count as over 10 because I am so holy that I have the purity and innocence of a human baby.

    Can a YWN moderator explain why this rant was allowed to be posted?

    This is exactly what I mean. WHAT HAS THE WORLD COME TO THAT WHEN PEOPLE HEAR MUSSAR, THERE REACTION IS TO REJECT IT INSTEAD OF IMPROVING THEMSELF!

    I think I’m going to get myself a moderator and whenever someone tries to give me mussar I’ll just ask my moderator to remove it.

    I volunteer to be Meno’s personal moderator

    Um, I already filled out an application. Did you fill out the application?

    Well said. It’s about time someone actually took matters into their own hands. I’m heading out right now to buy some bleach and find some good rocks.

    So now it’s just stuck in the fax line?

    How do I get my application back?

    You changed your mind? Did you hear something about him being difficult to work with?

    I also blame most of the world’s problems on population growth. 6 billion bothersome people was one thing, but 7 billion?!

    I read it thinking it was going to be real mussar; I wouldn’t ha be wasted the time had I known what it really was…..a waste of time.

    I’m sorry, I thought that with all the mussar trolls and my reputation nobody would expect my thread to be real. Should have added a (T).

    lol, great minds think alike – I was also hoping for real mussar. Glad to hear I have company!

    That being said, I don’t have a problem reading something mildly humorous, but then again, I’m a girl so I don’t have to worry about bitul Torah.

    Thanks so much for that laugh… hadn’t one in some time…

    iacisrmma – seriously? This thread bothered you that much?

    YWM -29: based on the title and the fact that this week we have the passuk of Hochayach Tochiach I thought it was a ” real thread. After reading it and since it was in UPPERCASE IMHO it should not have been approved as is.

    My two cents on the subject.

    I appreciate the feedback. I was a bit surprised by your tone but at least now I understand where you are coming from.

    Why? I thought it was so nice of you to apologize! I’m not saying you had to do, but it was definitely nice of you. Once you did so, why would you take it back?

    #1270611
    👑RebYidd23

    Because it was rejected, so I might as well have it back so I can use it a different time.

    It wasn’t rejected; he was simply responding to the moderator. That doesn’t mean that he rejected your apology.

    In any case, I accepted and appreciated your apology (mainly on his behalf, but maybe a bit on my own also), so please don’t take it back 🙁

    I like apologies; they make me happy :), and it makes me sad when they are taken back :(.
