April 13, 2015 3:20 am at 3:20 am in reply to: Why Can't Women Get Modern Smicha and Become Rabbis? #1071746☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲Participant☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲Participant
(For posterity) See this thread:
http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/games-involving-lying
(since renamed “Lying about games involving cholov stam”)
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲Participant(It’s actually quite likely those games are good, given how I found them.)
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantIt is not a given that every person always has bechira in any
action they do. For example, “Lev m’lachim b’yad Hashem” –
the leaders of nations do not have bechira with regard
to any of their actions that affect the course of history.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲Participantwith the Boggle game my family has…)
If anyone else wants to provide a new round,
just roll your Boggle set nine times, typing in the results,
but leave off the last vertical line of each third one
and the bottom line of the last three.
(It probably won’t happen, eh?)
counted plurals, verb forms, etc. as individual words.
a more detailed version of the calculation:
Original 4×4:
4 corners = 8 connections
8 sides = 24
4 middle = 16
=48
180 sec /48 = 3.75 secs per connection
24.5 * 60 = 1470
1470 / 3.75 = 392
11×11=121
4 crn = 8
36 sd = 108
81 ml = 324
=440
* 3.75 = 1650
10×10=100
4 crn = 8
32 sd = 96
64 ml = 256
=360
* 3.75 = 1350
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantBump.
(I didn’t know, and they weren’t Googleable.)
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantIn case you still want to know (and can’t or don’t use Google),
Dr. Barry Sears is the creator of the Zone diet.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantBump to find out if Yekke2 has rejected
my suggestion or simply hasn’t seeen it.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲Participantfor attention
[looks annoyed]
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantWelcome back to all the posters who’ve returned while I was away.
Specific mention (from before Yom Tov) to CTLAWYER ,IvduEsHashemBsimcha, and “but…”
Thanks for keeping the thread going, guys.
I’m going to leave it in your hands…
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantIs there scientific knowledge of our gedolim?
I think we should commission a study of them.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantThanks for posting that link (and saving me the trouble), Ubiquitin.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲Participant“Well, according to Rav in Chulin 95b…”
I think HaLeiVi’s reference is to Rav asking, rhetorically,
“Because of this shoteh who acted improperly,
should we forbid all the meat in the marketplace?”
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantTo me, the difference in this matter between earlier generations in
America, who had “a name” and “a Hebrew name,” and later generations, whose “name” was/is their “Hebrew name,” and might or
might not have, additionally, a legal name, is telling.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲Participant“Abaye” was not Abaye’s actual name.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantI get the impression that “Rebbetzin RLZ” is actually ridiculing
some people, and not simply trying to be funny.
(And according to one anonymous person, “IRL she’s not charedi.”)
Then again, some material from a certain other
comedian [not on YouTube] who is known to be frum also
seems to me to be over the line, so I could be mistaken.

(Not in particular.)
April 1, 2015 12:21 am at 12:21 am in reply to: Who are the top ten posters that EVERYONE knows? #1070038☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantThanks for including me. 🙂
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantWelcome back, Natethegr8, Secretagentyid, Chayav inish livisumay,
Feivel, Yentachaya, and Old man.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantIn case anyone can’t find the link,
it’s the word “here” in the above post.
(It’s a good idea to put brackets around links, like >so<.)
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantAsk Dr. Sears.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantWelcome back, EretzHaK, This name is already taken,
Appdev, Chacha5, and AZOI.IS.
March 30, 2015 4:30 am at 4:30 am in reply to: Randomex's junk thread thread (Ride the troller coaster!) #1220212☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantAre you allowed to salt a modeh b’miktzas
in a potted plant that has a hole?
What about retzichas ma’achal b’heima al y’dei am ha’aaretz shechal b’Shabbos, or b’heima gasa l’chumrah shenafal b’tanur d’Achna’i lifnei k’los ha’einayim?
If a person was batel ad mei’ah v’esrim shanah and then m’kadeish al y’dei shaliach, can he daven for the amud on the yartzeit of his almanah?
Are we choshesh for ed zomem in the case of a chatichas Achashverosh shenis’arev im hagoyim b’maizid?
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantI don’t know if that should be the interpretation…
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantThanks.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantTo clarify, my original question was:
Does the presence of “strong language” in a work make it assur to
read (etc.) it? The question was not about nivul peh – the
issur to read such things is well-known. (I did want to make a
point about the use of that term, though.) The question was also not about using such language yourself.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantBored games
Well, after much research, my recommendation is a game with a name like
Tsuro, Tokaido, or Takenoko,
Qin, Qwixx, Quarto!, Qwirkle, or Quoridor,
Alhambra, Barbarossa, Carcassonne, or Zooloretto,
1830: Railways & Robber Barons, 1960: The Making of the President, or 1989: Dawn of Freedom,
Forbidden Island, Forbidden Desert, Forbidden Stars,
Forbidden Forest, Forbidden Fruit, Enchanted Forest, Enchanted Fruit,
Forbidden Forbidden, or Forbidden Forbidden Forbidden (aka Forbidden Forbidden 2).
If that isn’t possible, try Cleopatra and the Society of Architects, Battle Sheep, The Great Heartland Hauling Co.,
Friedemann Friese’s Folders, Jaipur, Dixit,
Red7, Looping Louie, and, last and likely least,
Let’s Catch the Lion!
P.S. In honor of Pesach, you can always get Hanabi (named after Eliyahu).
(Okay, four of those aren’t real games.)
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantCould I have heard that story about orange juice rather than milk?
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantBumping is generally either to continue a discussion or
to show threads to newer readers. In this case, it’s the latter.
March 30, 2015 3:54 am at 3:54 am in reply to: Randomex's junk thread thread (Ride the troller coaster!) #1220209☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantSo, um, like, you know, whatever.
Yeah!
(Derivative, I know…)
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲Participant“A clarification: the Mishpacha did not actually advocate for voting in the WZC elections. Yonoson Rosenblum, in an editorial…”
Actually, they also ran an article about the whole thing,
though it did not actually say to go out and do it.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantIt wasn’t me either. (Your move, Crazybrit [just kidding].)
March 30, 2015 3:34 am at 3:34 am in reply to: Randomex's junk thread thread (Ride the troller coaster!) #1220205☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantMice & Mystics
It’s mistama meyusad on the maasim of R’ Yeshayele Keresztirer, eh?
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantWelcome back, HaKatan.
March 30, 2015 3:28 am at 3:28 am in reply to: Randomex's junk thread thread (Ride the troller coaster!) #1220204☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantIs nebach an alcoholic also an alcoholic?
Or are they all nebach?
(Is nebach a feminist also a feminist?
Is nebach a shlemiel also a shlemiel?
Is nebach a moderator also a mod?)
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲Participantgosh, lior! you sure learned a lot in 7 months 🙂
So mod view is different?
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantThanks. I don’t see why you consider that last one a bug, though.
(By the way, it’s just “regardless.”)
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantGood for you, SDD!
Can anyone tell me what this was a reference to?
“Thing is, it was a chillul hashem to wear a hat that was worn by an apostate. But then he remembered Kingsley’s words echoing in his ears: She wouldn’t care if he wore the hat.”
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantBump.
(Note: I have revised my stance on old thread bumping.
That doesn’t include doing it for no reason whatsoever, though.)
March 30, 2015 3:15 am at 3:15 am in reply to: Randomex's junk thread thread (Ride the troller coaster!) #1220203☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantTZAAR
Have you played it?
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantThanks. 🙂
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantWelcome back, Circle. It’s been a long time!
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantI don’t know why, but I’m under the impression
that if there is only one person, you exchange
the greeting three times with him.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantCatch Yourself (al pi Sam2),
in that case, I suppose that goes for the whiskey as well?
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantWell, what is considered “seeing the moon” for kiddush l’vana?
Is that condition met while standing on the moon?
March 30, 2015 3:00 am at 3:00 am in reply to: Randomex's junk thread thread (Ride the troller coaster!) #1220201☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantThis is not a blog
It’s a forum.
March 30, 2015 2:58 am at 2:58 am in reply to: Randomex's junk thread thread (Ride the troller coaster!) #1220200☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantPlease don’t click here
Please don’t post your credit card information and Social Security number.
