BaalHaboozeParticipant
I’m from OOT and we don’t have that many schnorers (HATE that word!)yidden collecting, at our simchas. Though we have our share it certainly not out of control. I assume the OP is from NY? Lakewood?
November 22, 2011 2:35 pm at 2:35 pm in reply to: EVERYTHING appears in the Torah – even the whole sad AYC saga! #829536BaalHaboozeParticipantShicky Guy LOL that’s brilliant!! HAHAHA
I think when he is reunited IY”H with the CR family the MODS promote him to Mishna La-Mod (second in command).
BaalHaboozeParticipantSam2: +1
I’ve davened in a shul once (I won’t say which) that made a Mi She’Beirach on Shabbos for their team to win. LOL
BaalHaboozeParticipantlet me get in line with all you guys, please. Thanks. Thanks Goq for starting this welcome AYC thread. Hop aboard all!!
now, you all know what to sing when he gets here, right?
“am yisroel chai,
am yisroel chai,
am yisroel, am yisroel, am yisroel chai”
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
Got it?
BaalHaboozeParticipantThere is another thread on this topic, see
http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/girls-learning-gemorah
There are hundreds more practical subjects girls should be learning instead of Abarbenels, Ramba”ns, and Kli Yokors.
BaalHaboozeParticipantYAAAAAAAAAAAY!! What a happy day!!!I loooove Tuesdays!!
I am SOOOO happy AYC is cleared and this is all history. I missed him so much and couldn’t help thinking about him this entire weekend including on Shabbos. AYC if you’re reading this, I hope you are okay and we want you to know that we all want you back so badly!!
thank you mod42 for your sincerity, I understand that all the coincidential circumstances that led you to beleive all that, and that you were doing your job to protect.I sure am glad it is all over…….that is until AYC returns, which I hope he does very soon.

BaalHaboozeParticipantWhoa, hold it goldielox, calm down! Even I’m not drunk enough to suggest those things.
everyone knows it stands for OP.
L’chaim yidden, l’chaim!
BaalHaboozeParticipantcoffee addict: +1
if your looking for fun,kfb, go to Vegas or Disneyland. Why does best city necessarily have to mean entertainment?
November 22, 2011 4:18 am at 4:18 am in reply to: Which are the great subtitles in the coffeeroom? #895079BaalHaboozeParticipantThanks Shticky Guy for thinking up my subtitle, it’s great! i couldn’t have thought one up after my weekend. too much (alcohol) on my mind 🙂
Now how the heck did I end up here on this mountain of rocks anyway??….oh well, gotta climb down now for my l’chaim….
🙂
L’Chaim yidden, l’Chaim!!
BaalHaBooze
on the rocks
BaalHaboozeParticipantYaaaaaaY I have a subtitle, Thank you Mods!…..does it come with a drink?
L’Chaim Mods, L’Chaim!!
Thank you, Shtick on a Stick! 🙂
BaalHaboozeParticipantThanks OneOfMany!! Yay I got a subtitle!
BoroParkgirl – I never would have guessed 😉
To me ‘Best city’ is a city i would consider moving to, if I had to move from my city. Taking into account: friends, family, type of people living there, weather, level of crimes, etc.
BaalHaboozeParticipantI love L.A., have many relatives and friends there.
November 21, 2011 8:00 pm at 8:00 pm in reply to: Moving somewhere else since there are no jobs in NY #828897BaalHaboozeParticipantI hear there is an opening very soon in a beautiful office in Washington D.C. 🙂
BaalHaboozeParticipantAvraham Fried is as good today as he was 20-30 years ago. He is, in my books, right in line with MBD and I always enjoyed his albums + performances. IMHO If anyone deserves a nomination for next King of Jewish music, it’s him.
BaalHaboozeParticipantThe yeshiva/kollel uniform is usually a white shirt. if someone is enrolled, he must dress the part. Period. A baalhabos on the other hand should dress for HIS role. If I work in a distribution company so I wear colored button down shirts. My son in yeshiva should dress like a yeshiva bochur. It’s a matter of identifying and being proud of who you are and what you do in life. A yeshiva bochur with a colored shirt, is not how he should dress (if his yeshiva has the white shirt dress code policy). I don’t feel a white shirt for me is appropriate in the work place. Ultimately, we should respect one another, color or white shirts wearers alike, and look beyond the clothes and see the Tzelem Elokim in every yid.
BaalHaboozeParticipantThank you tzaddiq!
Thank you Shticky! I like “on the rocks” for a subtitle, mods can i get that one please?
BaalHaboozeParticipantwe have a whole slew of them here in the CR. look for the blue threads(sticky) that says,” [sticky] YWN Coffee Room Nightly D’Var Torah”
hatzlocho.
BaalHaboozeParticipantA good Shabbos to all! Hopefully the bracha of Shabbos will spill into next week and we should be zoiche to return to the more tranquil, happy, and enjoyable CR we all yearn for once again.
And I don’t care what happened this week. May all this mishigassin end with the week. That being said, I think I need a week off from CR to breath, and collect my thoughts. My warmest wishes to u all for a great shabbos.
p.s. I miss AYC!….
BaalHaboozeParticipant*bump*
??????? ?????? ???????? ??????? ?????…(????) ?
BaalHaboozeParticipantThey should have hired you, Goq! hey, btw how’s the excersicing/dieting coming along? been thinking of u this week.
BaalHaboozeParticipantsam4321 , that was a nice pshat! Yasher Koach!
BaalSechel, that was beautiful! Unfortunately for Eliezer, he became a ben boruch and no longer a ben orur, exactly when the shidduch was made. So now it was too late to propose HIS daughter to Yitzchok, something which he wished to do. I guess it was bashert!
Let’s keep these divrei torah flowing!!
BaalHaboozeParticipantDefinitely not, smartcookie. I am shocked he is being in the limelight of being ACCUSED of fraud. I won’t beleive it 100% but I am left with a very sick feeling in the pit of my stomach. That’s all.
November 18, 2011 2:59 pm at 2:59 pm in reply to: What Would The Title of Your Autobiography Be? #885995BaalHaboozeParticipantLoL Shticky- I love that line!!! I’m gonna use that one, lol
BaalHaboozeParticipantYou can’t turn your back for a few HOURS on us, man! You gotta Shtick around! But in all seriousness, you’re welcome!
BaalHaboozeParticipantit’s all your fault, Goq!! You jinxed them!
😉
BaalHaboozeParticipantI hear you, smartcookie (great SN!). I know I should watch out. I guess it’s just that it wasn’t just ANYONE. It was, arguably, perhaps the most popular and loved poster here that is being accused.(need proof? just go look how many threads opened in his honor when he disappeared for a short while!)He was a friend, and a virtual shoulder we all leaned on, and enjoyed his wealth of compliments. It’s a shock that will take time for us to recover, some (incl. me) longer than others.
BaalHaboozeParticipant-Dedi was THE sensation in the ’90’s, a singer par-excellence, and a breath of fresh air. He brought an outstanding new sound and fantastic performances to the Jewish music world!
-Shlomo Simcha, Yisroel Williger, Shloime Dachs, Mendy Wald, Nochum Stark, Yehuda, Yeedle, and Abi Rotenberg became the jewish music stars in the 90’s.
-remember the story of Suri Feldman getting lost in the forest somewhere in conneticut(I think)? The kiddush Hashem of 1000’s who volenteered for the search. (Miami Boys made that legendary story famous in their album ‘One by One’)
-The Crown Heights’ Riot
-Ari Halberstam’s murder
BaalHaboozeParticipantagree. we must always put our trust in our M-ods 🙂
As much as it kills me to beleive there was ‘something’ there, I will go along with the mods’, trust in their integrity, and will move on. But one thing is for sure, I will no longer be CAUTIOUS, I will be paranoid!! I will try not to, but after what just happened here, I don’t think I will fool myself, and even if just subconscioussly, I WILL be paranoid. This hurts.
BaalHaboozeParticipantOther stuff from the 90’s:
-Nintendo
-Pokemon
-Windows 95
-Rabin’s assassination
-O.J. Simpson trial
-Jeffery Dahmer
-Princess Diana’s death.
-One of the greatest nissim in modern history then was the fall of U.S.S.R.
BaalHaboozeParticipantteletubbies, HA, my neice went crazy over those!
Power Rangers
Jurassic Park
1992- World Series in Toronto Canada for the first time, and Blue Jays win over Atlanta.
1994- MLB players strike, NHL lockout
November 17, 2011 8:37 pm at 8:37 pm in reply to: What Would The Title of Your Autobiography Be? #885993BaalHaboozeParticipant…oooookayyyy for some reason I’m drawing a blank! i can’t seem to remember the actual color after all those drinks, hehe,….but it looked something like this

L’Chaim yidden, L’Chaim!
BaalHaboozeParticipant‘and a shot of booze won’t hurt eith……..okay, okay, ZeesKite, I’m leaving!!!!
BaalHaboozeParticipantThank you Shticky Guy for being an integral part of the CR family! You’re a poster on many various threads, you post often, and your comments are always thoughtful, smart, and respectful – even the sharp ‘Shticky’ remarks you stick in once in a while. Your posts are always fun, enjoyable and, yes, shticky – great recipe for all us readers- very much appreciated!
oh, and thanks for making up that title for my autobiography, lol. (I’ll send you a copy as soon as it’s published.)

L’Chaim, Shticky, L’Chaim
November 17, 2011 6:19 pm at 6:19 pm in reply to: WHAT'S THE PERCENTAGE OF TRUTH THAT PASSES THROUGH THIS PLACE.. #830703BaalHaboozeParticipantwho cares?! Y’know what they say: 82.74% of all percentages are all made up!
🙂
BaalHaboozeParticipantI’m shocked, and personally hurt if this is all true. AYC??
BaalHaboozeParticipantmewho- lol! you also pinching in, thinking of original ways to stop the shidduch crises? lol.
“Kallos…half price, this week only, cheap yet durable” LOL.
BaalHaboozeParticipantTRUE STORY
There was this woman, pregnant in her 9th, and it was getting close to shabbos, when she felt something. The husband says go to the hospital she says no, not yet, and a whole long dispute ensues. Time creeps by and she suddenly feels a painful contraction. It was so close to shabbos, but the husband had already made arrangements, so he quickly brought the kids to the babysitter’s house and then rushed his wife to the hospital.
Anyway, she goes into labor, and before you know it the baby pops out, healthy and happily -mazel tov- and all is well! Shortly after, the husband goes back to check up on the kids and arrives late Friday night at his home where he collapses in his bed into a deep sleep.
The next morning in shul he gets an aliyah of course and, because it was Parshas Chayei Sara, he names his new baby, “Rivka”. B”H he had bought food before Shabbos, just in case, and he even gave a little kiddush/L’chaim after davening. Later that day he goes up to visit his wife+baby in the hospital, and she asks him how the Shalom Zachor was. “Shalom Zachor??”
Apparently, the whole ordeal on erev shabbos was in such a rush and so fartumult, he had mistakenly thought the baby was a girl!
So the shaila was brought to R’Elyashiv Shli”ta, what to name the baby boy. He paskened, that since ????? ??????, and they had originally “named” the baby ‘Rivka’, they should name the boy Yitzchok. ????.
It’s brought down in seforim, that when the father names his baby, it is with Ryach Hakodesh, that this name ‘taiches’ up the metziyus and essence of the child. And every father names the child with precisely that name which was ultimately destined for that baby. The couple in the story did not plan to call their baby Yizchok. Originally they had a differnt name. Hashem had to orchestrate this whole rush, bilbul, etc. in order for this baby to end up with its proper name, Yizchok.
November 17, 2011 3:08 pm at 3:08 pm in reply to: What Would The Title of Your Autobiography Be? #885991BaalHaboozeParticipantShticky.
lol. that was brilliant.
BaalHaboozeParticipant???? ?????
BaalHaboozeParticipantadorable: +1
WHO ARE YOU, ICE CREAM?? FIRST YOU POST AS A FEMALE NOW AS A MALE!?
MODS….sorry, but this poster creeps me out…
BaalHaboozeParticipantthank you kapusta.
I also felt this place started to attract one too many shady and creepy characters that ruin the serene, enjoyable mood the CR was created for.
November 17, 2011 2:27 pm at 2:27 pm in reply to: Avenue J subway station defaced. Do you agree with my m.i.l. a"h? #827321BaalHaboozeParticipantI live OOT so I don’t know what happened on Ave J. but it sounds like you had a m.i.l. with her priorities straight! I agree, she was 100% right, and lived the way a yid SHOULD live in golus. America is as goyish a country as Germany was in 1940, there’s no reason to flaunt wealth – ANYWHERE. If one has the brocho of wealth, B”H for them, may they continue to see success, but keep it away from the public eye. Especially the non-jew’s eyes!
BaalHaboozeParticipantOkay Ice cream, I think everyone here is EXTREMELY SUSPICIOUS OF YOUR CHARACTER AND COMMENTS, AMONG OTHER THINGS.
MODS, WHO IS THIS GUY/GIRL ?????
BaalHaboozeParticipantkapusta, I created a thread for you for the 90’s and the best you come up with is Y2K?? LOL LOL LOL !!! You’re so funny.
but, yeah, I guess you can count Y2K with all the buzz, anxiety, and the whole apprehensive feelings we felt leading up to Y2K…
RE: nokia phones with green screens -lol. I had one!!
BaalHaboozeParticipantDon’t know how far the issur goes, to say thinking is ossur I’d say no. But ask your LOR.
BaalHaboozeParticipantHere’s another beauty.
The gemorah learns out you can marry a woman with money from the gezeira shova from our parsha:” ???? ????? ….???? ???? ????? ?????.”
The troubling aspect with this is, why not say it straight out! Why send us to the story of Efroin, where Avrohom bought land from him, why does the torah make us read about this greedy conceited man Efroin, I mean, my gosh, do we really have to come on to HIM to learn out money can be used for marriage?? Say it out:???? ???? ???? ?????? (??????? ????)!
The answer is that we see something interesting by that meeting, from BOTH parties involved. Efroin thought he’s getting the deal of the century by selling this dark old cave for a clearly overpriced cost. Avrohom was more than delighted to pay for this burial plot which Odom and Chava were buried in. Each one beleived HE got the better end of the deal! AND THAT’S HOW PEOPLE SHOULD ENTER A MARRIAGE!!! Both the chosson and the kalla should look each other in the eye and think to themself, Wow I can’t beleive my fortune! I won the lottery! My bashert is the greatest thing ever, I can’t beleive how lucky I am!
Now, go use this vort by your next sheva brochos 🙂
BaalHaboozeParticipantStation wagons were totally replaced by the family-friendly mini vans.
AWD was introduced first in the 90’s.
Cordless phones started to become a common household item. They were huge when they came out.
I remember our first car phone – it was HUGE!!
I remember the styles in clothes changing. Those big glasses everyone wore in the 80’s were replaced by smaller ones, rimless ones, thinner ones.
3 piece suits were out, single-breasted suits were in.
BaalHaboozeParticipantI’ll answer this one for my wife:
OMG I BUY LIKE 80% OF MY KIDS’ CLOTHES THERE!! YES GUMBALL, IT IS THE BEST IN THE WORLD!
BaalHaboozeParticipantapushatayid: The ’94 Rangers was the highlight of that decade in sports IMHO 🙂
1991, 1992, Pittsburgh Penguins = Mario Lemieux + Jagr= Two Cups
1993 WTC bombing. this was the original 9/11. too bad warnings and threats weren’t taken as serious as it should have. What a different world it is post 9/11.
1991- The Gulf War, E”Y miraculous victory.
1995- The Oklahoma City bombing rocked the nation.
BaalHaboozeParticipantThank you yitayningwut, I was going to ask if there is a word for hero in hebrew, but you beat me to it. While on the subject, though, is there a word for hero in yiddish?
