RoshYeshivah: only when you make me sad!!!!
alright so i’ll stop making you sad asdf, i cant afford the tissues!
The mods don’t like me 🙁 and I think I no y!! (Besides for the fact that they don’t like half of my posts)
I think that they dislike some of your posts, not that they dislike you.
join the club syriansephardi. (this club is not much of a club because there hardly seems to be anyone to exclude)
BS”D
Syrian – it is not that they don’t like you, it is that they are consistent in enforcing the rules. And that is what makes this board so good – there is no selective enforcement, and we have no idea who the mods are and if they also post as members.
True confessions: I had three jokes for the Humorous Items rejected. And given the high standards here (and the concern for young people who are on the board), I understand why they did not pass even though I’d tell them to my rov and many other rabbonim whom I know “morgen in der frih” (in fact I think I already told one of them in a community shiur…:))
I think that the mods have mostly stopped posting under regular sn now that they have real identities (e.g. 72, 99, etc). But that’s just a guess.
As for the enforcement, I think that they are sometimes inconsistent, though never selective. Meaning that everyone is treated equally, but sometimes the standards rise and fall. The decision is sometimes so subjective that it is impossible to enforce the stadards consistently.
As the saying goes, “You can’t be consistent all the time”.
No no guys they don’t like me, I know. Somethings u just no.
BS”D
Well, Syrian, if it is any consolation most of the regular posters seem to like you (or your online persona LOL). I quickly figured out a pattern to my rejected posts and I avoid those particular subjects for jokes here – see if you can also find a pattern to yours.
syrian – i still have #1 place of “dreaded poster.” (maybe not “hated” but definitely dreaded…) don’t worry, i don’t think the moderators are going to un-crown me.
Syrian: you think they have something against sephardim? I wouldn’t think so, not after obama became president!!
Aw thanx itzik but I don’t feel like ppl on here like me either (no, I don’t have a low self esteem) good advice itzik 🙂
Why do you say that syrian? It aint true!
Rosh yeshiva: howd u no I thought that??? Its like u read my mind!!! But its true, with most off the ppl. On here.
Beacon: thanx but….
And rosh yeshiva I don’t get what obama has to do with anything
syrian? why in the world would you say something like that? (even i don’t have a complex. only moderator-72 and squeak don’t like me – everyone else seems cool)
syriansephardi i like ya!!! lol!!!! but your kinda stealing my signature too much tonight!!!!
BS”D
Funny you say that because in my community all of the foreigners except me are from E”Y and they think of Obama the way they would think of a Sefardi becoming prime minister of E”Y – way past time and something to be proud of. Some of the local Jews think the same way – mostly the students with nothing to lose as opposed to my fellow businessmen who are suffering and know that if the US goes down we can all sink.
They don’t understand US politics and they don’t realize I am opposed to him because I remember Carter and it is his policies and not his origins that bother me – already he looks like another Carter with his request that EY should open the borders of Gaza. I don’t agree with a lot of what Condoleeza Rice and Colin Powell did when in office but I would probably have voted absentee – a BIG tircha that would cost me $400 and 2 days time – for either one of them had they run on either party.
But are you OK today Syrian? Some of your posts today were kind of hard to understand (and now this which I assure you is not the case – I am a Lubavitcher and no one dislikes me here even though some people here undoubtedly have differences with Chabad or their perception of it), like you are tired or distracted – but that doesn’t mean they are reason for anyone to dislike you chas vesholom.
Moish: nah its different!
Asdfghjkl: thanx 🙂 but what’s ur signature???
Itzik: sorry but I’m having trouble understanding what ur trying to say about the obama and sephardi thing, are u saying ur friends would never want a sephardi leader or that they do? And I’m fine, b”H, I’m such a happy out going person bliayin hara, I’m saying these things for reasons obviously, not just from my head….
syriansephardi: come on you didn’t catch yet that all my !!!!! & ????? are my signature??? you sure your not a blond????
Syrian: What i meant with obama is that americans came along way as to respect ppl for who they are not from where they originate. Personally i like sefardim alot of my family members worked with them.You ppl definitely have alot of advantages over us.For one the warmth sefardim have is far greater than we express. About mind reading that’s what RY’S do all the time!
BS”D
I am saying that they DO VERY MUCH want to see a Sefardi PM in E”Y (so do I and let it be Eli Yishai from Sha”S but Moshiach will come long before Eli Yishai or any other true ben Torah becomes PM of the medine!) and where they go wrong is to think that Obama’s victory is the same situation for the US and therefore something good – they think of it all in racial terms and do not understand why we Jews who grew up in the US are afraid for the future.
you should have seen when i got blasted by moderator-72. you wouldn’t be saying that.
syriansephardi- join us by our luncheon thread
BS”D
Syrian, in fact I really like some of your posts here like when you teach us words such as “hazeet case” LOL! Maybe you can tell me what “ruh moot JW” means?? Years ago a troll on Usenet who claimed to be Halabi sent me that in a nasty message when I called him down on his trolling.
Asdfghjkl: oh haha sorry but I ALWAYS do !!!!!!! And ???? (Don’t no if I do in the CR but in my txts I alwaysss do) and sorry can’t say if I’m blonde bc its personal info 🙂
Roshyeshiva: oohhh got ya! And yeah thanx they really do
Itzik: thanx for explaining patientley, and I totally agree with u!
Moish: lol I like wen u make others happy
Qwertyuiop: thanx like u 2 🙂
Beacon: lol u tyring to make me feel wanted? Lol well thanx 🙂
syrian: that post was bursting of emotion!
Haha itzik u just made me laugh! I actually have no idea! I don’t know arabic I just no the basic words that all the syrians use!! But if I remember I can find it out for u tom!!!
Lol RY what r u trying to say?
U mean bc of all the 🙂 ? Like I said b4, I’m a happy person B”H
Itzik my friend told me moot means death!
BS”D
Thanks Syrian and have a great Shabbat – for all I know he was trying to say “ruh min hon” (the phrase the real or imagined Rochel Imenu told the soldiers in Gaza) which means “get out of here”. This guy was using four different names (first and last, not made up identities) on Usenet so who knows what language he was trying to speak and where he was from!
Itzik, my friend told me moot means death (like hebrew)
Lol itzik maybe, or he was sayin u should die! (Chas veshalom)
JW (or jay-dub for short) means Jew, and for some reason SYs use it to refer to “itchies”, as if they themselves are not Jews.
syriansephardi,
I don’t have anything at all against sefardim and I doubt anyone here dislikes you because you’re sefardi. I think you’re very well liked here.
Its not a deragatory word j dub. What r u trying to say squeak?
Charlie brown thanx but u can’t say that for everyone…
BS”D
LOL re ruh moot – the guy who sent it to me uses four different full (first name and surname) identities so I don’t worry too much about what he says – he is L”A a hazeet case!
And thanks re Itchies!
I thought it came from the Yiddish nickname Itche which is what some ppl call me and other Yitzchaks – in our circles being called by a nickname like that means that both you and the person using it are “real Chassidim” who still speak Yiddish and have strong ties to the old ways.
Also, Reb Yitzchak Meir Alter ZYA of Gur (Ger), the Chiddushei HaRim, was known familiarly as Reb Itche-Mayer and just about anyone named Yitzchak Meir in his revered memory is called Itche-Meir (such as Chazzan Helfgott).
Ames: I actually was thinking today how everything I say is about me being syrian and I DO not, let me stress DO not say it out of ga’ava or anything like that!! I’m serious!! I’m not like that at all!! I’m EMBARRASSED wen my parents buy me nice things, or we go on nice trips and stuff. I’m not the type of person u think I am. You do not have to tell me that there’s more to me than being syrian- I KNOW THAT, I appreciate u trying to make me less narrow minded, but I’m not. I’m sorry I came across that way. I have a lot more to say but….
thanx mods for the sticky thread on rules!!!
BS”D
yes thanks for the rules!!!
