oh did i? that’s pretty cool. cuz i’ve got no clue what you’re talking about
you’re telling me to look it up??? sorry i don’t do that! but you could tell me what it says.
maybe they get lost in cyber-world or something
dd – that’s JF02’s job. welcome to the enlish club, though! cuz you’re right.
lol ok, ok. i guess you’re right. i’m just a mefuneket.
what’s the diff? they’re all one and the same. and you have no control over who censors what.
true, true!
yeah well if wanted to be REALLY frum i’d get into how cold winters are better cuz there’s less pritzus… or maybe not cuz then people tend to stay home and hang out in front of the TV or on the computer… see? not SOOO far fetched!
oomis – tacky. i would never say something like that. you just don’t look and make sure to NEVER eat out with that person again!
nobody- but it’s true. jphone IS right! and i post on here a lot and i’m saying it!
there’s no way you’re female with a name like that. girls aren’t such stiklers about knowing it all. we try not to get the other gender jealous 🙂
SJS – just for the record – the sign of a big rav is not how easily he says “assur.” anyone can say that something’s assur. (and unfortunately anyone can say things are muttar and people will buy it too…) but my point is that a great rav knows halacha well enough to honestly pasken when something is muttar and when it’s assur. so don’t go on saying that the blacker the hat, the more things are assur. no, it’s probably based on the fact that they know what they’re talking about a DROP!
wothin the black hat world it’s very apparent that if you’re looking for a heter you go to a big rav. that way you get a psak that is thoroughly thought through and from a person you trust.
well you’d know me if you met me! guaranteed!
hey i just realized that yeah it’s possible to get things slipped by #72, but depends who you are and what you’re saying. if you’re a radical “black hat” you’ve got more of a chance… just an observation. (hopefully JF02 and illin and oomis won’t see this one!)
illini – sometimes when a a rav makes a psak – that’s it. you don’t even get up to the stage of asking your own (probably small-time) rav his opinion.
and even if you did – is it worth the risk? how can you possibly sleep at night knowing you’re ignoring 35(???) major rabbonim?
i have a lot of relatives with tvs. some are frummer than others. but none of them say that it’s really allowed. at least they’re aware that it’s a problem! maybe their portion of hell will be smaller…
wow joseph you got his signature thing too!!!!!!!!!!
joseph – you never do all nighters? what time’s YOUR bedtime?? (lol i sound like i’m five)
hey i’m so proud i knew something from the gemara that the gemara-girls didn’t know! wow thank you bais yaakov! (and brothers!)
asdf –
they’re all one and the same guy. i always new there was the editor and “moderator #1” and that’s all! lol ok maybe there really are three of them. but not right now! now it’s only one guy posting.
not really. i don’t believe anything is worth taking fifth grade geography again online. sorry!
hey 72 – looks like we’re in trouble. 86 is on here too.
and guys? i think we’d better keep quiet. we’re gonna end up letting them know what they let get by and they’re gonna buckle down…
not that I EVER post anything that needs moderating or anything…
hey joseph where have you been? i need more brain stimulation on the random question thread…
WOAH!!! thanks mod, for showing me this! i actually agree with JF02 on SOMETHING!
try the andrew clements books. his books are unbelievable. very clean and they really have a point to them. every single one has a lesson. i’m ___ years old and I still love reading them!
i dunno. 72 posts more often but i think that’s cuz he’s more bored and too lazy to log out onto his other username… no?
btw – which are you?????
asd – i have a life! if you think i’m gonna type them all up you’re crazy. but i do know them! (can’t spell them but that’s a different story)
hey esther what planet are you from? why do you always know this stuff?
is there a thread on everyone’s ages? i’m relatively new and i’m kinda curious. and btw i’m still scarred that Mr. !!!!!!!!!! is a MISTER! any other surprises on here? are you gonna tell me that JF02 and BYM are guys and that Joseph and Will Hill are girls?
i think it’s because people don’t know the limits between “respect” and “worship.” my rav is very makpid not to have his picture all over the place. yes, he’s in pictures at his children’s weddings and stuff. but he got very upset when he was told that his picture was framed in a sforim store. i think they actually agreed to take it down and not to sell it.
notpashut (i’m starting to like your name!)
i just try to be modest sometimes. i can’t let everyone know that i ALWAYS know EVERYTHING even though it’s almost true… i’m working on my middos!
i forgot – i used to know. something rediculous like 20 bucks? a little more?
JF02 – There are ways to forfeit it.
Doc just don’t you become a mod
ICOT – wow. really good reasons. i didn’t think of any of them.
Who is Barry Soetoro?
when did hawaii become a state?
anon – whether or not rav soloveichik had a TV – how much are you wiling to bey he’d rule that it’s assur nowadays? times have changed. i’m not saying it ever had a hechsher but there’s a difference between “no hechsher” and “treif”
esther – go the SBH online. or google “sephardic bikur holim”
eh. i’m not the type to talk about my problems. maybe cuz i don’t have any 😉
asdfg…
what do you expect people to call you? cuz i can’t pronounce your name – i just recognize it…
joseph – he’s only 72. don’t make him older than he already is. ad me’ah ve’esrim!
you know what i just realized? it’s kinda weird that all the guys on here call me by my name. lol i feel like i’d turn around if someone called me “brooklyn” in the street. weird!
joseph! i’m ashamed you even posted that! it’s “D”
intell – personal messages would still be moderated so that wouldn’t happen. but i think it’s unnecessary. no reason for private talk. if it’s goog enough for one person it should be good enough for everyone to read.
it would also start talk between genders. even just shmoozing is not great. besides, they’d need a lot more moderators, no?
IDK – actually it’s a pictire of the signing of the declarattion of independence which took place on july 4th 1776 at the continental congress. the constitutional convention took place in 1787 when the regathered to fix the articles of confederation.
1. what did mary antoinette say when they told her there was no bread?
2. what picture is on the back of the 2-dollar bill?
3. who was the first US president to appear on a US coin?
joseph – not really. if they have ANYTHING that’s not unkosher (like soda or a bathroom) it doesn’t qualify. and definately not anymore – after it’s the most over-used example.
WHERE DO YOU GET THESE RANDOM QUESTIONS FROM???? are we supposed to KNOW this??????
and oomis – david must’ve hinted about it to yoav. shaul’s actions in the cave prevented his death – david couldn’t kill him after witnessing such greatness. when he returned to yoav, i’m sure he needed to explain why he let his persuer escape. and like joseph said – chazal didn’t make things up.
actually esther, you’re right about what it is and toronto got why it’s called “funny” it’s a pun – a play on the word “humerus” which is the long bone of the arm
