Alot of people (me included) eat only hand matzos because that is our mesoirah and minhag. Pesach has that special flavor of eating only what your parents did even if it has no ryme or reason. Like alot of Hungarian descent yidden who eat only “falsche fish” aka chicken balls and not real fish because in the shtetle they put something soaked in chometz in the dead fish mouth to keep it fresh.
Some only use 3 to 4 spices…the one the Bubbes had in Europe.
Some only eat 3 or 4 types of vegetables and peel their grapes before eating it.
Or not “mishing” even by someone who you would trust 100% the whole year.
The list goes on and on……Its just the flavor of Pesach alot of us grew up on. Without that it just wouldn”t be Pesach.
Who besides me misses the walnut crackers?I heard Rav Avigdor Miller Zatzal saying “Black hats in itself has no meaning but it is the identifying dress of todays bnei torah. Therefore I wear it since I want to identify with that group of people. If they would all wear YELLOW hats I would wear THAT instead”

Thank you.
Any ideas for a place to stay for father and 2 bachurim for 2 weeks in chodesh av. Looking for Meah Shearim/Mir area. The cheaper the better. No frills needed.
I am planning on going in july with 2 teenage sons. Looking for cheap flights, Any ideas?
Also want to stay in Meah Shearim area for cheap. Any ideas?ujm
Prewar most boys learned a trade at age 11. Those that went to Yeshiva past bar mitzva were few and far in between. That is not counting the 75% plus who were going off the derech to all isms.

eggs tripled in price and a bus token is not the price it was when Zeidy was young.
I have one observation.
If moshiach can be from the dead I would defenitley choose Moshe Rabbeinu or Ezrah or one of the many tannoim over the Rebbe. Even his predecessors the Baal Hatanya or Tzemach Tzedek would come in first. Not to mention the Vilna Gaon.
Why the Rebbe???
This question always mistified mebtw Beeblebrox sounds right out of Dr Suess. But what’s the Zaphod peice about?
Beebble you are really talented. Do you give lessons?

Did you see what Nom wrote? There is no market for it. That means if someone tries to open such a Mesivta he will not get a class together, It’s the truth. A sad truth. You can’t open a Mesivta and say it’s for academically struggeling boys either. None will send. Period.
Rashi matzo is reichayim shel yad. Erev pesach matzos is self explanatory
They say the Rogatchover had some contact with him and was not impressed. But he wasn’t impressed by too many so that doesn’t say much.
Did something happen recently that OP is reffering to?

No we should not discard but copying them is foolish. You dont think you can write a sefer tehilim and have it incorporated in Tanach. At least i hope you and Weissman wouldn’t be so dellutional.ok. so bourbon and scotch
I fully feel for the the Yiddishe Momma. She must have had a bad experiance with some Rebbi. But that is not the norm.
And besides Yiddishe Mommas were never the poisek achron for klall yisroel.
Most talmidei chachomim who get drunk are such a Kiddush Hashem. Ask any nonjewish janitor from Yeshivos. They are “arois from their keilim” watching how Yeshiva Bachurim get drunk and there is no fighting etc just hugging each other and darshening in learning. It is utterly amazing to watch the Torah that flows from your regular 18 /19 year old serious yeshiva bachur by ad delo yoda.
Kiddush sheim shomayim in its fullest sense!! The ahavah and purity pours out in ways you wopuld never see. I remember one 19 year old bachur ratteling off the first perek of mesilas yeshorim by heart,something this quiet masmid would never do soberdikeheit.You forgot to mention that Dovid Hamelech was a Navi and did only al pi Hashem.
Chananya Weissman is not.Avira
Who said they went there volontarily maybe Sancheirev shot them up in a rocket ship which had only enough fuel for a one way trip.Maybe the aseres hashvotim are on another planet. Then we have part of the am hanivchar there too. Could be they had some chochmo that got lost over the years and knew how to get there. Like Chizkiyahu’s sefer harefuois or some chochmo from Shloima Hamelech. Who knows???
Just a thought. And maybe the sambatyon is really a bunch of metiorites gaurding that planet. This is getting better as I type…..Do you beleive Sharon or BG have the power to cause the death of 3 heiligeh neshamos?
What became of us? Are we forgetting who runs the world? Can some political people be goizer chaim or moves?
Let us stop projecting on others when we to do teshuva!!!LAkewoodscoop

Thank you for talking like a mentch!

Hashem did already. He called them toaiva which means disgusting.
That only refers to those who do actions of toaiva not though those that don’t get married because of their feelings towards same gender without acting on it. They are giborim who are in a very tough place and are koivesh yitzrom. I am mekaneh their chelek in oilam habbah.Dear Mods please put an end to this thread and delete it. It is getting so full of hatred and from one yid to the next. There is nothing constructive coming from it. Only sinas chinam.
He may be a petzua dakoh or krus shofcho
There is on the market a kosher smart phone by Safe Telecom that has many kosher apps but doesn’t have browser capabilities.
How about just plain “the girl I am dating”. She is (hopefully) NOT your girlfreind or significant other since you are (again hopefully) only dating her to see if she is suitable for you to marry.
We as frum jews don’t date for dating purpose in itself it is just a way of information finding thru real life situations.
Or in Yeshivish lingo “hechsher mitzva”Avira
With all due respect, untill 20 years ago the chassiddeshe rabonnim were screaming about mixed swimming in Miami where a big oilam going there where not beig makpid since it wasn’t at home
(Almost like not being makpid on yoshon when not at home)
And it wasn’t just the Bubbys and Zeidys it was the children and eineklach coming to visit Bubby and Zeidy.why do you allow Dofi to spew anti Torah haterid and when I call him out you don’t put up my post?
I posted 2 plus hours ago on thread on MOCan you please explain your comment of the Netziv and Rav Chaim Solovetchik being the polar antithisis of yeshivishe yidden today.
That is quite a strong comment. I wonder what you mean by that
To all the arrogant physic graduate posters
why can’t you allow a perfectly intellegent guy make a comment which even makes sense even if not backed by scientific boguswhich site?
