    after reading this thread I really feel tempted to donate spoons to every yeshiva. I don’t know what bites me more: getting coffee behind your ears or getting sweat and ear wax in your coffee. I think the latter.

    When you walk into a hat store and have no clue what kind of hat to buy! So… you just ask for the cheapest one!

    Ear wax helps defend against ayin hara.

    Miri Topez, are you a guy or a girl? Because half your posts are from a male perspective.

    I knew that ear wax defended against lashon hara.

    When you start hacking the short of cash yeshivah guys for ”not going out to work for their money”.

    And/or you stop funding their great institutions…

    When at weddings, you avoid the innermost circle. (And for safe measure, the second innermost circle as well.) Cuz’ sometimes it turns into the innermost,(and one can never be too careful)

    And when you just stand on the side and watch the dancing. well.. then you haven’t been a yeshiva guy for a loong time.

    When Tu B’shvat means the beginning of tax season, and not the opening of the freezer…

    When you wake up earlier than 8 A.M. every day.

    When you go to Minyan 3 times a day.

    When you start learning mussar because it means something to you.

    1. When you actually have a valid excuse as to why you were late to Friday night davening.

    2. When you come to the realization that believe it or not, yungerlight do NOT have a monopoly on happiness.

    By us they say

    Once a yeshiva guy, always a yeshiva guy…

    #1197578

    I don’t know. When i was in yeshiva, i did daf yomi (gasp), smoked because i enjoyed it, tried to quit multiple times, AND stirred my coffee with a spoon. (We won’t talk about waking up before eight). In my opinion, you can take a guy out of yeshiva, but you can NEVER take yeshiva out of a guy.

    R’ Moshe Tuvia Leiff heard from R’ Shmuel Berenbaum, that if there would have been daf yomi in the days of the Yevanim, they would not have included it in the decree.

    #1197580

    I’ve heard that and worse. I was in Yeshiva too!

    When you decide learning with Artscroll saves me time ,and it’s pointless leaning it up my own.

    #1197592

    I didn’t learn much about yeshivos from here, but I did learn who in the CR likes them

    #1197593

    When You use appliances other than an sandwich maker and George Forman.

    PurimMashgiach, you forgot to mention the iron.

    #1197595

    The iron is a just in case method and only works best with eggs. I also left out the dryer when heating leftovers, and that because it costs almost two cans of coke!

    It’s when instead of feeling all superior to the balei battim of your shul who weren’t sent to yeshiva like you were, you lament your foolishness through your increasingly frequent – and sobering – encounters with better schooled Yungerliet. (sigh)
