T613, neither am I… but we are both not married either.
BLIMEY! I THINK I’VE GOT IT!
Facebook doesn’t cause DIVORCES! It causes relationships built on shaky foundations and misleading representations of other people. It superficially causes people to appear like they have perfect lives and make everyone anticipate meeting a life partner who is as perfect as all the other humans on facebook! Makes so much sense…
Eat slower. Chew each bite of food 20-30 times and eat it slowly. It takes time for your brain to feel that your stomach is full. If you eat fast you will consume more food before you feel full.
Hey T613 I’m posting this just to sympathize with you… im taking calculus based electricity and magnetism this semester, and I feel like it’s the toughest subject I’ve ever had the pleasure of studying. It’s basically just a Russian physicist integrating Greek letters on the board and mumbling to himself… I miss multivariable calculus 🙁
I don’t understand your premise.. is the fourth mitzvah not a seudah? Seudat mitzvah starts with a samech. Unless you want to call it a mishteh…
LOL Purple you funny!
Yaakov doe – If nobody realized anything was off until they DNA tested it, that means it was obviously not noticeable in those processed products. It’s the principle of the matter that bothers people; kind of like not eating dogs, rats, and cats – though in some Asian countries they do. Yehudayona is right: If you can’t notice the difference then it’s all psychological, and it’s very interesting that people who eat shellfish, pork, and rabbit are bothered when it comes to horses.
It’s all goooooood! 😀 Thanks T613! Be well.
T613- what can I say… I’m just a big baal taiva.
T613- I am not usually a grammar/spelling freak, but I know you are smart so I will just ask you to notice that you consistently spell my name incorrectly. Regards.
Not reading Harry Potter.
Light their blankets on fire.
Blast metal music on highest volume.
Tell them their father is being arrested by the cops outside.
Pour a bucket of ice into their bed.
Release a swarm of bees into their room.
Inject them with a shot of adrenaline.
Fire off a handgun near them (with blanks, obviously).
Fire off a handgun near them.
Get a fire hose and hose them out of bed.
Spray them with mace.
I think that’s enough for now…
Slaughtering litters of innocent little kittens.

The friends of mine who weren’t driving when they were teenagers, ended up being poor and inconfident drivers.
PBA: I wasn’t aware driving young is a segulah for parnassah! 😉

SaysMe, I happen to know the OP irl, and was reading in hope to see her dilemma has been resolved.
Superstar: heels shouldn’t be confused with soles. Men’s shoes have soles with slightly raised heels to provide protection and comfort for walking. Mod42 and I were discussing women’s shoes with high heels.
Superstar: I don’t understand why girls wear shoes with no heels at all. Those dainty fabric shoes that many frum girls wear today offer no arch support.
Mod-42: I don’t understand why girls wear heels either. I completely agree with you.

There’s a special place in Ghennom for spammers…
I’m a Jew! 😀
I’m nothing like my uncle…
The wheelbarrow is a segulah to having loads of cash to wheelbarrow away.
PBA – maybe the mashal of kavod haTorah would be more to your liking. Sometimes big talmidei chachamim who are also baalei mussar have to act in the name of kavod haTorah when their honor is slighted. Not because they are arrogant or egomaniacs, but because as a representative of the Torah they have to act in its defense. Goyim have a similar mindset by the court of law. It’s not a matter of personal insult to a particular judge, but because the justice system is considered honorable, and it is unlawful to be in contempt of a court. Ever wonder why everyone has to stand when a judge comes in to sit on the bench, but not when he walks into a restaurant? It’s kavod for the court, not for the judge personally… not to say that judges are all humble baalei middos who can make this totally impersonal. I’m sure some do let it become personal, but the reason for a judge’s authority to change the ruling based on an insult is irrelevant to the judge’s ego.
That you had a horrible day in the office and the boss yelled at you.
Why ever should you keep this bottled up? Spouses have an obligation to be supportive of each other emotionally. If you can’t share the burden of a bad day with your spouse then who can you share it with? You should share everything with your spouse except things that may insult, alienate, or hurt them.
Shabbat shalom 🙂
EJ- no I have not, but that’s irrelevant. The way it is being described sounds disgusting, and the whole concept of davening on a bus on a regular basis sounds like it is an extreme belittling of the kavod of davening. There is a reason why a beit haknesset has special holiness and special halachas that apply only to it. It is considered a “mikdash me’at.” To be comfortable enough to daven on the bus and turn it into a makom kavua for davening is a complete insensetivity to the holiness and chashivut of davening – this is besides the lack of kavanah, lack of derech eretz, and the chilluley Hashem that come out of it. People are throwing Yiddishkeit under the bus… sorry I couldn’t resist.
This whole bus thing is so disgusting…
Vesamchta bechagecha is a mitzvas asei shehazman grama lol…
Wear gloves?
Being born, thinking “Wow! That was pretty traumatic… I bet it’s all downhill from here,” only to wake up one morning about a week later and discover you didn’t know the half of it…
LOL… I must say, Purplicious has the most easily readable personality out of all posters here. Maybe it’s because of her age and how stereotypically similar teenagers are all to one another – no offense. Purplicious, you are definitely entertaining, I’ll say that. Though, you seem to take a lot of brunt from some of the older, more serious posters. Don’t let them crush your personality… keep being your energetic, purple self! 😀
There are many, many types of Jews that wear a tallis regardless of marital status- not just Yekkes, but who is to say I’m not a Yekke? 🙂
KZ- fingertips is the bare minimum. The minhag is to wash to the wrists.
It depends.
I love folding my tallis on the crease!
That’s a good Litmus test actually. If Ayin Hara lady refuses the beis din’s ruling, that would indicate how leshem shamayim she is or how much her “services” are just a scam. It’s a catch 22 for her. Besides… how much federal income tax did she report on that money your wife gave her? Is she a licensed business? I don’t mean you should be moser her, but a little “convincing” never hurt anyone… mwahaha… May you succeed in getting your money back – bli ayin hara.
I’ve never read HP (*gasp!*), but centaurs are cool… I take my inclusion in your list as a compliment 🙂 .
-Shraga, this website is The YeshiVA World, not The YeshiVISH World. Chill out!
Wow Purplicious!!! I didn’t know you had it in you! I commend you. 🙂
Thanks T613 🙂
I hope all’s well by you!!
MorahRach – It wasn’t considerate to others to change your child in public, but I think it’s understandable why you reacted the way you did. The only thing is, these types of “people” (and I use the term very loosely) make such a scene because they are looking to get into open arguments with strangers. They’re dimented, cruel, and evil. She was actually looking for a confrontation, and it would have gotten to her more if you would have just ignored her and pretended like she was nothing more than the annoying, whining child that she is. That being said, may she and all other reshaaim b’meizid get what’s coming to them, soon, with the coming of Mashiach…Amen.
…and no, I didn’t torture animals as a teenager.
Work out. Pick up a hobby. Go out to eat with friends. Build something. Start a business. Lean a new skill. Shoot pool. Graffiti the subways of Manhattan and get into a turf war with the local gangs, then agree to join forces with them and start selling narcotics, then become a mole for the FBI and make money for ratting out gangs and providing info for sting operations… just to name a few.
MorahRach – To play a bit of Devil’s advocate… not all people who tortured animals as teenagers ended up becoming serial killers and psychopaths.
All squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares.
If you weren’t as funny as you are, I would say I think I just figured out who you are… but then it would be meaningless.
I’m still with OOM…
I’m with OOM… why aren’t those viable options? You can’t be forced to date or marry someone you don’t want to. If you are doing it just to make the shadchan happy, which is a different point of debate on it’s own, then just buck up and bear through one date and then say he isn’t what you want in a husband and explain why. It can help the shadchan hone in on what you want better.
