    “there is such a thing as a milk allergy”

    There’s allergy and sensitivity and intolerance, which are different, depending upon the body’s reaction.

    Similar in a way to a body’s different reactions to gluten, etc.

    laugh with me-YW

    Pray your heart out

    Silently or shout

    To Hashem above

    Who’s brimming with love

    Your son’s so small

    And cannot crawl

    But he hopes to one day

    If he has his way

    Hashem has His own unique timetable

    When your baby’s health will become more stable

    In the meantime, the words of Tehillim are healing

    Say whatever you can with all the emotion you’re feeling

    If the computer is so bad, WHY are you ON IT?

    Oh, right, you have a CHOICE

    Unlike the people in the crematorium

    Your attempt at telling me for whom I harbor contempt shows conceit.

    It’s not Yiddishe Yekkes; one of the signs of a Yid is a rachaman, and there is no rachmanus here when comparing people who were put into ovens with no choice.

    So since you’ve established that the computer is unilaterally evil, wishing you farewell…

    laugh with me:

    Whoa! What pain you clearly express

    Lurking behind the perfect dress

    Your son is given the best of care

    Despite your perfectly coiffed hair

    It’s a show of strength

    That you go to great length

    To take care of yourself so much

    It’s not at all a facade as such

    So cut yourself some slack

    We’ll all try to have your back

    If you’d like his name to say

    So we could use it when we pray

    A mechutzaf, too.

    You’ll not find me often speaking in such a manner, if at all.

    Why are you not taking issue with the creator of the knife?

    After all, it’s killed people.

    So what if its intention was to spread butter or the like.

    The gas chambers were built SOLELY to inhumanely exterminate us…

    The computer’s intent was not to destroy, as is the knife…

    Intent is important all throughout halacha, whether a horeg b’shogeg or b’mayzid, etc.

    It’s curious that you chose a German moniker along with your gas chamber remark

    Wow.

    I’m really touched.

    Not only I wasn’t embarrassed, but this came at such an opportune time. You see, I was wondering if my life brought zchuyos to my parent. I sat shiva VERY briefly erev Rosh Hashana- that’s the whole shiva. Then the shloshim was over a week later-by Yom Kippur.

    There was obviously not much opportunity to talk about the deceased. So I wanted to dedicate actions to the neshama. I was quite sad the entire yomim noraim, not able to come up with too many zchuyos. The most I came up with was helping an elderly person put on a sweater, and giving a Russian newcomer a smile and a Russian machzor.

    So because of your kind words, I can now say, here is how I can be Mechabed my parent!

    And I dedicate any forthcoming kind words to the neshama of my parent, whom I cannot be mechabed anymore.

    Just bring your pop-up sukka to the park and you’ll get a number of requests “borrowing” it- what a great way to get extra zchuyos!

    How do you compare the gas chambers to the computer?

    That’s so outrageous and you need to ask mechila from anyone who suffered through the camps.

    You obviously didn’t go through the concentration camps or you would never have lumped this together.

    always runs with scissors fast

    Firstly, give yourself credit for reaching such spiritual heights on YO”K.

    I’m wondering if you can replay the motzei YO”K scene in your mind while creating some distance:

    -Replay it the way you would have liked it to play out (a known technique, even used in sports psychology to visualize a routine in advance)

    -journal at night and in the morning. This usually lets out any angry/frustrated feelings concretely.

    Do you mean that you don’t enjoy the actual process of the food preparation, only the result?

    And how about all those hours of work preparing (for some people in the CR it’s been months!) and then in a relatively short time, it’s all gone?

    “AYC The mods should be really grateful to you…Any day now you should get a hallowed application moderator form in the mail. “

    Funny as usual, SG!

    Let’s just say that you’re about the only one who noticed and responded…haven’t heard much from the mods except when they’re busy deleting posts and even an entire thread (The Close-’em-burger Rebbe Returns!.) How appropriate!

    I haven’t even received a response to my request along with Icot in the “Contact Us” section with a request to exchange temporary addresses in the puzzle thread or even to redt shidduchim (a hobby along with puzzles, don’t ask!).After thinking about it, I figured it would make sense to make a temporary aycamyisraelchai on the gmail account, while he could become Icot, now wouldn’t that be original…

    But thank you for noticing and taking the time to thank and comment on it, that says a lot about you in addition to all your humor. And that gentle way you handled my “newbie-ness” when I was attempting to be helpful to you in numbering posts (who knew you were an old-timer??!) (I’m using the word “old” loosely…)

    Seriously, thanks. It’s nice to get a good word now and then.
