Bookworm120Participant
Can I have some krembo, please? Whenever someone mentions Aron Raizel, I automatically think of krembo.
I don’t care how out of date I am. 😛
Bookworm120ParticipantOn a slightly unrelated tangent, I was walking through a toystore in a foreign country (not China) and said store sold TONS of Chinese toys. The descriptions on the boxes were almost comical, and there was this little girl doll with a shirt that said, and I (roughly) quote:
“My Little khfiudsyfhygfehjyyyejujjyyyy”.
Bookworm120Participant@DaMoshe – +1,000,000,000!
Bookworm120ParticipantTry to work your way to trying only a small sampling of each dish. I know, it’s tempting to try everything, and all the more so, taking second helpings of the foods that taste good! But anyway, the secret is only taking a little of everything.
Good luck! 🙂
Bookworm120ParticipantThanks, everyone for your clarifications. 🙂
@ubquitin – That covers all the bases. Thanks. 🙂
@sharp – Great minds think alike! 😛
@writersoul – I’ve never heard of Chinese jump rope before – I assume it’s about as Chinese as Double Dutch is Danish? 😀
@The Goq – Oh gee…. It’s too bad I like red sauce better.
@LAB – What is this ‘Where’s Zaidy’ of which you speak?Bookworm120Participant@Torah613Torah – YUMMMM!
Bookworm120Participant@Torah613Torah – Thank you. ^_^
@PBA – Cows wear leather birthday suits. Consider that for a moment. Leather is made from the epidermis of cows.
Bookworm120Participant@Syag – Oh my gosh…. Y’know, I thought it was a little strange that Getzel’s username had a 1 at the end again. Now I know. Pardon my lysdexic ingoracne.
Bookworm120ParticipantTorah613Torah – I want to try that recipe so badly, and I’m always looking for a good crust! I’m waiting for a nice lasagna to come out of the oven, although I didn’t bake it. 🙂
Bookworm120ParticipantI read a similar presumption that people shouldn’t wear denim because they claimed that in England, apparently only the low-class, unrefined dregs of the working-class society wear it. I’ve never been to the UK, but I’m pretty sure that denim doesn’t necessarily connote such traits. And wearing denim doesn’t necessarily connote support of the Zionists either.
Don’t get me wrong, I don’t care for leather accents, but if these girls are not wearing leather in a provocative or overly abnormal, eye-catching way on otherwise unquestionably tznius garments, then I really don’t see what’s wrong with it.
Bookworm120ParticipantI’m not a feminist and I’m definitely not a misogynist, but I like your reasoning a lot. Why do husbands get such a bad rap when there may be plenty of wives in the same situation?
Someone please cattle prod me.
Bookworm120Participant@oomis, +1
Bookworm120ParticipantI’m just going to buy a costume wig. Who’s with me?
Bookworm120Participant@Keenanp – Good question. I’ll admit I hadn’t quite thought about that. I guess make sure the other person is willing to hold down the fort? Like I said, I really don’t have much experience in this venue. 😛
Bookworm120ParticipantChulent (from one year ago): “What if the person is single or otherwise doean’t have a talis bag? (Or is a woman.)”
Then a woman should put the tissues in her tichel. 😛
Bookworm120ParticipantPersonally, not that I have much experience in this venue, I believe that both parties should be mature enough to think realistically. Look at all of the secular teens out there – do they end up getting married to the boys they dated at age 16 or 17? Let’s face it, the truth is, most teens and young adults are not as mature as we’d like to delude ourselves.
Not only that, I would wait until one has both completed their education and found a means of parnassah to support the family they are looking to start.
Bookworm120ParticipantHehehe, Goq! 😀
Bookworm120ParticipantNow, if it were your wife’s diploma, I’d say cover it with a tichel, to promote optimum tznius. For yours, just put a kippa over it diploma to show that you’re a G-d-fearing (presumably) man. 😛
Bookworm120ParticipantYou’re back! *hugs*
Bookworm120Participant@oomis – Me too!
PBA, your wife try Fleishman’s special pizza yeast. I’ve made wonderful pizzas with it. 🙂
Bookworm120ParticipantI once went in a haunted house ride where I shot (and missed) at ghosts. It was in the summer time, though.
And then there was the time I screamed. I was very young at the time. And it was also in the summer time. 😛
Bookworm120ParticipantNooooo! Nooooo! Don’t leave us, the-art-of-moi! Who else will I entertain with my comments? :O
Nonetheless, I completely respect your reason – you’re probably doing the right thing for yourself. May you have only simchas in your life from now on, and may your emunah become stronger than ever!
Thank YOU for the impact that you have made on the CR. Every person makes a difference, yourself included.
Never forget, Hashem is always there, even if it doesn’t always seem apparent to you. Have a wonderful Shabbos!
<3 Bookworm
Bookworm120ParticipantSherlock 😀
Bookworm120Participant@SecularFrummy – Does that have anything to do with the Simpsons? I don’t know why I think that, as I don’t watch it. 😛
@WolfishMusings – Is it ossur to kick wolves?
October 31, 2013 9:55 pm at 9:55 pm in reply to: The last rebellious thing you did as a teenager. #984578Bookworm120ParticipantWell, when I was with the Rebel Alliance, I blew up the Death Star.
Bookworm120ParticipantLOL! We’ve had a few mouse adventures, but none of them were as spectacular as those! 😀
Bookworm120ParticipantI would recommend looking into Naaleh College. It’s a frum, online college, which gets rid of several of the risks posed to young women, Jewish and non-Jewish alike in certain other environments.
Bookworm120Participant@mms601 – Good point. Technically, the OP wasn’t the one who shredded him. 😛
By the way, I pity you. I have reason not to trust these sort of people anymore myself.
This probably sounds silly, but from now on, I highly recommend going DIY whenever possible. A certain video-hosting website that begins with Y has plenty of tutorials for just about everything under the sun, and you can always ask around at your local hardware store.
I hope that guy gets what he deserves for what he’s been doing to countless people in your area!
Bookworm120ParticipantCool! I haven’t read it, but I shall endeavor to look into it. 🙂
October 28, 2013 11:28 pm at 11:28 pm in reply to: UNREAL: BoroParkScoop.com Has Eye-Popping Story #983634Bookworm120Participant@Pixelate – LOL. 😀 I’ve never read HP, but I did see the first couple of minutes of the first movie, so I got your reference (I think)!
Bookworm120Participant+1
Bookworm120ParticipantWow. No kidding…. LAB, you may have just made an amazing discovery!
Bookworm120ParticipantWIY, I have to agree with you about emunah and bitachon. We either take things for granted or we wonder if things even exist.
Bookworm120Participant@need seminary help – Like … Kerlosh?
Bookworm120ParticipantI think Israeli cuisine would be an interesting topic. For one thing, many of the foods that are popularly consumed in modern Israel have been adopted from its neighboring Middle Eastern countries.
I can’t say I agree with that statement myself, but that’s besides the point. 🙂
Good luck with your paper!
Bookworm120ParticipantWowza. (I love the Obama one, especially.) I must say, that is creeeepy!
October 27, 2013 12:28 am at 12:28 am in reply to: If you spoke with a stranger and they seemed like _____ poster, would you ask? #983506Bookworm120ParticipantI’d probably force myself to not ask, because I know if someone asked me, I’d be pretty uncomfortable.
October 27, 2013 12:23 am at 12:23 am in reply to: If Jewish writers are so good, why don't they publish secular? #983563Bookworm120Participant@Shopping – I bet we *do* have better things to do, (someone tell me I’m not the only one) but it’s just so much fun here we can’t help it! 😀
Bookworm120ParticipantI’ve always said “fleishig” if I wasn’t going to say “meat.” I have, however, heard people say “meaty,” in addition to “milky.” Hearing adults speak like that can be pretty awkward, I’ll admit! 😛
Bookworm120ParticipantMy pleasure. 🙂
Bookworm120ParticipantWIY – Does “all the time” include on Shabbos? O.o
jk, of course!
Bookworm120ParticipantBeatles songs are, indeed, like Lay’s chips. I was going to compare the songs to cornflakes, until a big, fat walrus sat on the said cornflake as they awaited the arrival of a van.
Bookworm120ParticipantWas it Rabbi YY Rubinstein? That cover sounds soooo familiar.
Bookworm120ParticipantSomeone please enlighten me. I don’t chap what is a boodie.
October 25, 2013 7:29 pm at 7:29 pm in reply to: Onslaught of Frum People That Are Closet Atheists #984374Bookworm120Participant@Lost1970 – Excellent point. Often, we jump to label people under one category. Just because someone has doubts or does not practice everything doesn’t mean that they’re an outright atheist.
October 25, 2013 6:01 pm at 6:01 pm in reply to: If Jewish writers are so good, why don't they publish secular? #983559Bookworm120Participant@wallflower – COOL!!!
October 25, 2013 6:00 pm at 6:00 pm in reply to: Onslaught of Frum People That Are Closet Atheists #984371Bookworm120ParticipantOoooh, nice point, WIY.
Closet atheists, beware! It’s a trap!
Come on, anyone with the G-d-given gift of seichel ought to know that!
But wait, atheists don’t believe in G-d; ergo, they have no G-d-given gifts.
Bookworm120ParticipantThere are times when … the questions run so deep for such a simple mind. 😛
Bookworm120Participant@streekgeek – Aren’t there? 😀 If Waldo were standing among a bunch of black hatters, though, I’m pretty sure he’d stand out.
Bookworm120Participant@Wallflower – +1,000,000,000 kainaynahora! 😛
