You do? 90% of the time I can’t figure out why it was closed.

Society is messed up. Don’t use it as your guide.

canineMemberThe Audio Home Recording Act establishes that it is legal to make copies of audio recordings for non-commercial personal use. (See USC 17.10.1008, amended by the Audio Home Recording Act.)
canineMemberWhat’s the big deal about wearing mismatched socks? Who sees them anyways.
canineMemberThere is no such thing as a kosher college. All the more worse for women.
We don’t know exactly what Rav Solomon, shlita said. Let’s please keep him out of the discussion.
canineMemberAZ, when did the age gap issue first develop as a problem in the frum communities shidduchim?
canineMemberAnyway- riding in a car late at night with a man (dating), has a biggur Shailoh in Yichud than elevators.
Anyone know of the heter or issur when riding in a car?
canineMemberFrom another thread, quote and reply posted by popa_bar_abba:
If a mother tells her daughter to do something and that something is NOT against halacha, the daughter is obligated to do as her mother asks, out of Kibud Av v’Eim.
This is highly questionable. It is not at all clear that you are supposed to do something your parent wants when it does not directly affect the parent.
Anyone agree or disagree? And more importantly, sources?
canineMemberYou may, if you wish, address me as Master.
In the U.S., the title “Master” is generally only used for young boys (instead of “Mister”).
canineMemberMods: I believe our Ron deserves a subtitle of “Ph.D”, like Dr. Pepper’s.
Everyone: Please respectfully refer to him as Dr. Ron, much as we do for Dr. Hall.
canineMemberJust being in the home is a great first step.
canineMemberCharlie, you disagree with the above sources.
canineMemberHow does the famous story in the gemorah of Hillel fit in here? When Hillel couldn’t afford the admission price to the shiur he usually attended, he went on the roof to listen in — without paying and without permission (that time).
If “intellectual property” has any basis in halacha, wouldn’t Hillel have been “stealing”?
canineMemberAZ, when did the age gap issue first develop as a problem in the frum communities shidduchim?
canineMemberI’m doing better than that.
canineMemberThey should have simply recognized a Federal employee assigned to work outside his home state by the Federal government, remains a resident of his original state for the purposes of election law. Much like the POTUS.
As far as Rahm not owning/renting an available residence during the relevant period, neither do homeless people and they too qualify to vote.

canineMemberWolf –
It IS different than going on vacation, since you do not lose your suffrage in that case. You simply must file the appropriate paperwork (i.e. absentee ballot request.) Laziness or ignorance isn’t a loss of suffrage.
canineMemberSjs: ayin hora is not a “superstition”.
canineMemberIsn’t there an ayin hora to prepare the child’s needs in advance?
canineMemberNevertheless, even without so stating, what I said above is the implicit blame that your points makes. Even if it remains unstated.
canineMemberWhat cuddly package?
canineMemberAZ, so what it effectively boils down to in your estimation, is that every guy who married a girl 3 or more years younger than himself, is a perpertrator of this crisis and the cause of other girls being unable to ever marry.
canineMemberChess game.
canineMemberWould taking the freebie with the express intention of reselling it, affect its halachic permisiveness?
canineMemberMoses Mendelssohn also “knew something.” Even halacha.
canineMemberWhere are all our old foggies?
canineMemberMDG: how does that demonstrate whether or not he is the same as our poster?
canineMemberMike: to do tshuva.
canineMemberVery well said, Poster.
canineMemberIt is the supermarket’s fault for a) being slow and (depending on the circumstances) b) causing the error that requires attention (i.e. a price discrepancy). It isn’t the customers fault the store takes so long.
canineMemberThat’s sad, cherrybim.
February 23, 2011 6:28 pm at 6:28 pm in reply to: Can you make a new driveway (legal) in Brooklyn? #743461canineMemberMy neighbor was fined and forced to undo it.
canineMemberYou give a teretz to a kasha or to a shaila?
canineMemberMore than one post per 30 seconds.

canineMemberHow can we know you are not impersonating Dr. Hall from YU?
canineMembermdd, this is an Orthodox site. The reform version of “torah” you espouse is outside the bounds of Judaism.
canineMemberOne point I’m confident everyone agrees with, is that when a thuggish driver who is making a right turn while pedestrians are crossing and illegally pushes his way through before the pedestrians who are crossing, should be issued a bloody summons with a backbreaking fine and points for that life threatening incident.
canineMemberAnyone remember the Telex machine in the office?
canineMemberI believe that message specifically appears to yappity girl posters.
canineMemberHis subtitle wasn’t of his choosing.
February 23, 2011 12:47 am at 12:47 am in reply to: Women & Girls Out There: I Really, Really Need Your Help!!!! #747746canineMemberInsist your mother tell you which rav gave that ‘psak’, and then call him. If you can get no name, assume it doesn’t exist. You are absolutely correct, 2 inches is not enough for all situations like getting into/out the car for example.
canineMemberAz, one “solution” to what you describe is for girls to start dating earlier. This way even if they are dating longer, they are still younger.
canineMemberWhat would be a better term?
canineMemberJews are even being blamed for the spelling crisis.
canineMemberAz, doesnt matter how long theyre dating. If she started going out at 17, its not a crisis when shes 21.
canineMemberSo an ideal situation might go something like this?:
customer puts cereal on checkout counter
clerk scans it
customer gives credit card
clerk packages product and gives it to customer with receipt
clerk says “Thank you for shopping with us.”
customer says “You are welcome
[very brief pause]
customer says “Thank you.”
clerk says “You are welcome.”
