☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲Participant
“self-reverential”
I think “self-referential” was intended.
“In fact, one of the posters here told me that he enjoys taking a
side in any discussion/argument – whether he agrees with that side
or not, depending on his mood – to take the intellectual challenge
of arguing your point until the bitter/sweet end.”
Interesting…
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲Participant(Perhaps my last post wasn’t approved when you wrote yours?)
What I meant was that the non-existence of a literate lower
class among non-Jews would mean that such “literature” would
not have an audience, and therefore would not be published,
not that the Pele Yoetz’s audience was illiterate.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantI’m not sure if that’s a good answer, but never mind,
I’d forgotten about the old methods.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantThere’s a bit of a disconnect here…
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantWhere is the software before you create the hardware, Joseph?
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantThank you, DaasYochid. 🙂 That is exactly what I meant.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantWelcome back, Teebee48 and Tiawd.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantDaasYochid, why would he write that about cholov stam?
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantToi:
R’ Moshe himself writes in a teshuva that whiskey blenders could be problematic so he refrains from drinking whiskey with a blender inside when not in public. cholov stam is lichoirah less problematic.
DaasYochid:
Toi, your “lichoira” is lichoira wrong. He writes that he drank
blended whiskey in public, but didn’t say that about c”s.
Why should he have to, DaasYochid? He wrote to be mattir it,
not that he thought it might be a problem.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantSam2:
If true, the story says a heck of a lot more about Chalav HaCompanies being muttar than Assur.
Jewish Thinker:
Sam2-Do you mind explaining yourself?
Second the motion.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantJewish Thinker:
I would like to know details, when it happened and where.
ubiquitin:
It was about 5-6 years ago on Purim, in his apartment
🙂
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantHardware came first. Software can only exist on hardware.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantWelcome back, Ilovetohock, Birdson, and WolfishMusings.
March 30, 2015 1:05 am at 1:05 am in reply to: Seemingly ordinary things that are actually a problem in halacha or Kabalah #1085050☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲Participantwhy don’t they cut the meis’s fingernails out of order, etc.,
and let everyone else cut it normally?
I was thinking of that too.
Maybe so as not to inconvenience the Chevra Kaddisha?
March 30, 2015 1:03 am at 1:03 am in reply to: Seemingly ordinary things that are actually a problem in halacha or Kabalah #1085049☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantI’ll get back to this later, b’li neder,
but I just realized I forgot something:
Sitting at the corner of a table.
March 30, 2015 1:01 am at 1:01 am in reply to: I can't find my old post, so I'm following it up here #1067243☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantUbiquitin, I think your “misogyny” might have been “male chauvinism.”
(There was also female chauvinism in this thread.)
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantIt is perhaps notable that the Pele Yoetz, in the section on nivul peh, speaks severely about speaking and listening to nivul peh but makes no mention of reading it.
The Pele Yoetz lived in Bulgaria when it was part of the
Ottoman Empire, which had very low literacy rates. It seems
likely that the issue would never have come up.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantJT, do you have a m.m. that’s it’s forbidden to use curse words?
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantCorrect, and I didn’t argue with that when you said it earlier.

☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantI got “G2K,” but I’m going to have to Google that one.
EDIT:
“Don’t worry about it.”
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantI didn’t even know Lexus was a Japanese brand.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantWelcome back, Eric55 and A Sheep without a Spleen.
(All posters, please feel free to use this thread.
I’m not going to notice everyone.)
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantThe Gemara quotes the book of Ben Sira as saying
“One who has a split in his beard – no one can overcome him.”
Does that help?
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantThe creator of Rummikub was a Jew named Ephraim Hertzano.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantWrong thread, JT?
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantOkay, I think this was funny, especially if you’re just coming from
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantGoGoGo = GolemGorilla?
I’ve got another candidate or two in mind…

“Women from the Fall of Eve to the Full Redemption”
to easily find out more.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantI misspoke, or rather didn’t think enough before posting.
Showjoe’s theory is logical, and I did not mean to say it wasn’t.
(It was also the OP’s theory – that’s the reason for the thread.)
Yekke2 is also correct that if there is a sh’eilah,
one should not act in the matter until it is resolved.
Little Froggie’s proof is not correct, though, because I think we can assume that the author of the writings in question is known.
If it could be shown that they were anonymous writings,
or written using a pseudonym, that would be different.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantWas I in it?
March 27, 2015 8:06 pm at 8:06 pm in reply to: I can't find my old post, so I'm following it up here #1067237☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantAccording to the book’s author,
“The book brings 192 sources to substantiate these teachings. It has approbations from Rabbi Yisroel Belsky, Rabbi Dovid Goldwasser, Rabbi Zev Leff, and Rabbi Michel Twersky. Many other leading talmidei chachamim, including Rabbi Mattisyahu Solomon of Lakewood, personally told me how much they like the book.”
Perhaps we can add an additional haskamah:
Joseph cannot say that the book has strong feminist undertones.
March 27, 2015 8:00 pm at 8:00 pm in reply to: I can't find my old post, so I'm following it up here #1067236☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲Participant(For future reference, name the thread about the main topic of discussion to attract interest; like this, nobody is going to open the thread!)
You opened it, didn’t you?
Nope. Comlink-X Was the OP of this thread. I just disagreed.
Are you kidding, Yekke2?
What he meant was obviously that you clicked on the thread –
in fact, you used the same word in the same way!
In any case, the thread’s not lacking in activity. So there. 🙂
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantSeriously, Akuperma?
1) Why?
2) Major inconvenience
3) Many things probably aren’t available Jewish-made outside of Israel
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantThanks, Yekke2. Good memory! (My subtitle is no joke.)
It’s not a p’sak, and as far as people holding of it,
in your experience, do the creators of material for frum
children appear to have taken this dei’ah into account?
Re-posting for others’ convenience:
“Even the talking lampposts on a Torah tape for children,
Reb Yaakov felt,lessened a child’s sense of the distinction
between truth and falsehood.”
-Reb Yaakov (ArtScroll)
So yes, it seems likely Reb Yaakov would think it was bad chinuch.
Another reason to think it might be more of a problem than exaggeration
is that exaggeration is not meant to mislead.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantLittle Froggie:
Randomex:
It’s on something called Just one shaitel. The Yevamos song.
ivory:
And Yoili lebowitz had it as “ich bin mine eigene zeide”. Translation: I’m my own grandfather….
I just saw your response for the first time, LF.
(I never heard that album, only the first one.)
Presumably, both were based on the same secular song,
namely, “I’m My Own Grandpa.”
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantJoseph, it seems you read CY Magazine – what
have they printed from the CR lately?
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantBump.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantAnd now, our daily dose of rethoricol.
Mods, did you block Lamud Vov Tzadik?
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantNot until a posek confirms that an online persona counts as a person (because it is used in an ongoing manner as an identity).
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantI never noticed these responses. I wonder what
else I missed at times when I wasn’t on much?
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantThe question becomes how to get rid of it, though.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantIt sounds like an e-mail address a teenager would create,
but you could be right.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantBludgers, eh? A clue! (Maybe.)
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantThey’re also used, shall we say, “recreationally.”
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantAs far as I can tell, only two people have ever addressed me
as “Comlink” (as in >this< post) – Twisted and… Cozimjewish.
I like your thinking, Crazybrit, but this could be the second
time I’ve wrongly thought Cozimjewish was using another name.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantHere’s my guess – just some random kid. It’s bein hazmanim.
(Smile101 might have just clicked the button too many times.
Why those posts were blanked instead of removed, I don’t know.)
EDIT: Okay, I was wrong. I just saw GGG’s posts referencing older stuff.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantI would hope so…
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantWelcome back, Doleofyou.
☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantGenerally speaking, it’s a bad idea to put your primary e-mail address out on the Interwebz. So much spam and so many nudniks…
