December 27, 2013 7:11 pm at 7:11 pm in reply to: How to ask a rebellious teen to do something without getting resistance #997099Burnt SteakParticipantIts like Gamanit said, Its how you say it. Also teens will naturally want to be different. Treat them like adults and then you may get a positive response.
Burnt SteakParticipantI don’t get the humor…
December 27, 2013 9:11 am at 9:11 am in reply to: Making fun of people who are frummer than you #996533Burnt SteakParticipantGrowing up I wore a black hat. I decided to wear one on Shabbos. I took pride in wearing the black hat. The hat I wore was not a main stream brand, in fact it was a cowboy hat brand. I got the hat reshaped so it looked more traditional but you could still tell that it was different. My father never wore a hat and my grandparents were not religious.
When I went to a sleep away camp, I became aware of other people’s reaction to my hat. People were always trying to ‘fix’ the hat and telling me how weird it was. They eventually bent the hat out of shape. After the camp I never wore the hat again and I still don’t wear one.
It goes both ways with the bottom line being: People will make fun of others just to raise themselves up. I know I might get some flak for saying what I’m about to say but I believe that it should be said. Jews should try to get along with other Jews and ignore the differences. Obviously Jews should also practice proper Halacha, but as Rodney King once said, “Can’t we all just get along.”
Burnt SteakParticipantThe world is like a taco. No matter what you put in it it will taste good
Burnt SteakParticipantI pray in the language of love
Burnt SteakParticipantProfessional sports players are doing nicely. But you have to break out of the low minors for to really make a lot of money.
Burnt SteakParticipantWas he one of the guys on the 1980 mens gold winning hockey team?
Burnt SteakParticipantDaas – I heard a New Yorker ask my friend (a Chicago kid) what the state capital of Chicago was.
Burnt SteakParticipantTo the people saying USA doesn’t know how to deal with snow, you are mistaken. I was visiting Minneapolis in February. When I arrived it was in the 40s and there was no snow on the ground. The day I left they had a typical storm that dumped 8 inches in a little more than 2 hours. The city easily able to handle the snow. So you see from this that parts of the USA do know how to deal with snow. New York City is not America!
Burnt SteakParticipantI think some of the above posters make great points about the proper use of cheese. When used properly, cheese, can make any person seem agreeable to a shidduch. In my experience the sharper the cheese, the better. Some may say that cheese is not the way to go. I say right back to them that if they would take a broad look at the use of cheese in the Jewish history, they would easily see that cheese has been at the forefront of happy Jewish marriages.
In other news sometimes bumping has unintended consequences…
All this was influenced by The Temper Trap and their Sweet Disposition
Burnt SteakParticipantYou did your job. Its hard to quantify the feelings this other person might be experiencing now… You just gotta keep your head up, Woah
Burnt SteakParticipant43% of all statistics are made up
December 2, 2013 3:34 am at 3:34 am in reply to: Personal Statement for Seminary Applications #990910Burnt SteakParticipantJust write a creative story about yourself. Tell them how you had to study how to fight evil combat chickens in the land of pandas. They will know what you are talking about and chances are that it will blow them away. (if it doesn’t blow them away then it will at least grab their attention.)
December 2, 2013 3:31 am at 3:31 am in reply to: Charles Thyrwitt vs. Brooks Brothers shirts #996045Burnt SteakParticipantI never heard of Thyrwhitt. I would suggest going with Vans or something similar.

November 27, 2013 12:55 am at 12:55 am in reply to: Yated article about barely making it financially #991823Burnt SteakParticipantSolution to the problem is too move out of the expensive areas. There are many areas with affordable living AND Jewish life.

Burnt SteakParticipantFirst pick up the tv.
Next throw it on the ground.
repeat until broken.
Besides for sports there really isn’t anything good on tv anyways so you are not losing out on much.
Burnt SteakParticipantI’ll think of ideas to start something. But it is not something that can just be thought of. It was a more spontaneous decision when I had a very relaxed state. Thank Hashem that real life has been keeping me off the internet lately. I’ll see if I ever get this type of inspiration. I just tried and couldn’t think of anything, oh well better luck next time.
Sanity — I haven’t been on any meds other than allergy meds.
Burnt SteakParticipantkneedeep — I think she was saying, you got to be able to allow some space to move. It is incredibly hard for anyone to keep up if there is a very high intensity. When something is kept very rigid when it gets bumped it is more likely to shatter than if it was a bit looser. I’m not saying she was correct, but she does have a great point. That we should focus on the big things.
Leeba — Stay strong. Maybe when you are older you will come to realize that no matter what your parents and G-d still love you and that you will always be welcomed back.
Burnt SteakParticipantI think that if you wear a clowns suit you would probably get men’s attention
Burnt SteakParticipantHarova
Burnt SteakParticipantI’m looking at these responses and I can’t help but noticing that some very important information is being left out.
Back at the great Jewish hat conference (2004). The white hat leader (names will be withheld for the sake of peace) got into an argument with many of the other leaders. He took all their hats and put them into the washing machine. Now as you all know colours run in the wash. All of the red, green, blue, ect… got mixed together to create an ugly greyish colour. The other leaders decided to unify to stand against the white hats. They decided that they would all dye their hats grey. This was not to be as they looked at prices for the dye, they noticed that black dye was actually cheaper.
And that is how black hats became the fashion.
Burnt SteakParticipantI think you would need a little bit more than a, bacon tomato lettuce, sandwich to get into college.

Burnt SteakParticipantThere is actually 3. One in Boston, one in Har Nof, and one in New York.
Burnt SteakParticipantWIY, the one in Har Nof currently.
Burnt SteakParticipantI was once privileged to eat a shabbos meal at the same table as the Rebbe. He truly is a great person, I will attest to that and I’m not a chosid in any form.
Burnt SteakParticipantSince I just realized that this thread has a double, I will suggest that you do a report on the Israeli baseball team.
Burnt SteakParticipantDo a report on the cat infestation in Israel.
Burnt SteakParticipantAnagrams can be fun
Burnt SteakParticipantAnd what are you assuming? Do you mean after college or kollel or both?
Burnt SteakParticipantTomo and Mercaz Hatorah are the first places that pop into my head.

Florida State won 51 to 14 and are now ranked number 2 in the bcs standings
Burnt SteakParticipantPower tools. Every woman’s dream. Trust me I know!
Burnt SteakParticipantYes there is. You are not alone. I know many people who struggle with the same problem. Some of my friends had a competition to see who could remain ‘clean’ the longest. The loser had to pay a sum.
Also believe me that in a way, you are lucky that it has only been two years and not longer. Find someone that you can talk to. Filters don’t work so well but they do give you time to think if you really want to use the internet in that way. Try to get into a habit that whenever you feel that urge, you do pushups or something else physically intense.
If all that fails keeps trying. It is extremely hard to stop cold turkey. You may not become a master overnight. But if you put in the hard work, you will see results.
I am assuming that you are from a circle that does shidduch dating, otherwise I would suggest to get a girlfriend (shomer or not it would be up to you). Then you would feel bad ‘cheating’ on her.
Burnt SteakParticipantMenchem Phillip, Shiur Chadasha – on the album Shomer Yisroel.
Either that or Yeerav, by the same artist on his album, Imagination.
Burnt SteakParticipantMeh it was what I was listening to at the moment.
DaMoshe that was clever.

I was asking about #5Florida State vs. #3Clemson. Florida is ranked but they are 4-2. Florida State and Clemson are both undefeated.
Burnt SteakParticipantWhat I’m saying is that there is more than one place that is called Maohr. I forgot to post this last time. Many girls who applied to Michlalah, also applied to MMY.
Hatzlacha getting in. Enjoy your year in Israel.
Burnt SteakParticipantPatchy fog before 8am. Otherwise, mostly cloudy, with a high near 72. Southwest wind 6 to 8 mph.
Burnt SteakParticipantGot a very hard one. I give the chorus.

I don’t need your help now
You will let me down, down, down!
