Tell them, “Please understand that if i do your taxes, it might mean giving up a paid client, so I’d be glad to do it, but I must charge you. But I’ll give you a discount”. Then do so.
Thanks. It would have surprised me otherwise, based on the way the ??? is brought down in ?????? that it makes an ???? ?? ???? like a ?? ????.
stamagoy,
Since you didn’t say to whom you’re directing your post, that means it’s for everyone, some of whom are male, and some of whom are female. So whether you’re the brother or the sister, you’ve just violated your own rule!
Now, if you would tell me that since your comment is directed at nobody in particular, it’s impersonal and there’s no issue, I ask you: if you were in mixed company, would you be speaking up? No? Then you’ve just acknowledged the difference between anonymous chatting and non-anonymous chatting.
My opinion is that unlike non-anonymous chatting, which without a specific need is not appropriate, anonymous chatting is okay as long as the tone and content are okay.
Maybe if we use it properly (which for some people might mean not using it at all), the sonei Yisroel will not be able to use it for evil.
How does the money part fit in?
???!
“r u doing it with a theasaurus or not?? “
Some from a thesaurus (ex: gormandizing), some from an encyclopedia (ex: pouffe), and some from my head (ex: hurriedly ambulated).
Is that cheating? 🙂

I must say I completely disagree with TBT and the others that agreed with TBT.
That’s amazing, because chalilavchas, who knows this young adult, agrees!
But it’s difficult to take a person, who has to retort to insults, seriously.
Of course it’s difficult, but it’s worth working on, because at times, one can see some truth even if the source is rotten.
Two things which I haven’t noticed being mentioned (although I only skimmed so I might have missed):
1) Pathway to Prayer by Rabbi Mayer Birnbaum (the original, in Lashon Hakodesh, is called Avodas Hat’fillah). This is a clear translation/explanation which can either be used before or during davening.
2) Studying carefully the halachos of tefillah. Although they’re different for women tan for men, there are chiyuvim for women as well, besides which, studying the halachos is a tremendous help for any struggle with one’s yetzer hara, regardless of what the particular halachos are.
Hatzlacha!
It was sacrificed…
I asked the posek hador, and he said that there are at least two people impersonating him.
p.s. I don’t really believe this, but why am I wrong?
For the same reason that the idea of maris ayin is not a contradiction to the chiyuv to be dan l’kaf z’chus; the fact is that people judge unfavorably, and generalize. So although in theory it shouldn’t, in actuality a public bad deed is m’maet in k’vod shomayim.
I am see i told you so.
Your compliment deserves another “poem”, so here goes:
Carya tree, Richardory, physician,
the rodent hurriedly ambulated towards the top of the chronograph.
The chronograph reached the first hour,
the rodent hurriedly ambulated towards the bottom of the chronograph,
Carya tree, Richardory, physician.
Diminutive Ms. Muffet,
ensconced herself atop a pouffe,
gormandizing on coagulated milk and milk plasma.
Arrived an arthropod,
and ensconced itself adjacent to the aforementioned young lady,
terrorizing Ms. Muffet to abandon her pouffe and find a place to perch elsewhere.
Chilul Hashem is for yidden, and probably for others as well. (This is what I’ve heard; if anyone has a source which either agrees or disagrees, please let me know.)
If something is proper according to halacha (not just acceptable, but demanded by halacha), then it is a kiddush Hashem, even if it angers people. (This is pashut – think bris milah in communist Russia, R’ Akiva teaching Torah, etc.)
Common sense demands a healthy dose of skeptism regarding everything claimed by an anonymous poster in the name of an anonymous Rav.
I agree. I also think that common sense demands a healthy dose of skepticism regarding everything claimed by an anonymous poster in the name of a Rav even if named (unless it’s verifiable).
Shticky Guy,
Check out Dr. Peppers profile.

Also, the subtitle is there.
(These proofs were pointed out by other posters on other threads.)
Jokes on you! 🙂
Blue shirts? 🙂
i feel they should edit it but not write *EDITED*
Sometimes, the edit changes the meaning of the post, so it’s in the interest of accuracy that the EDITED tag is added.
My heart goes out to all those who need shidduchim and are trying so hard to stay strong.
As far as trading tehillim names, I have a suggestion, which can be done right here on YWN. Anyone can open a screen name specifically for this purpose (on a different thread, this idea was approved by a moderator) and either post the name in this thread or the “sticky” tehillim thread.
My suggestion would be for each post to contain a friend’s name as well, to retain some level of privacy, for those who wish.
Please remember that no immediate results are guaranteed, but what is guaranteed is that no tefillah or tehillim is ever wasted.
do u intend to revive this thread every friday? i dont see the need
Why wouldn’t you understand someone who wants to say “Good Shabbos” every week?
Is there a way, maybe like the one who made the Jewish calendar, to ‘Good Shabbos’ automatically all future Shabbosim, without user intervention?
Should I tell my family and friends “Good Shabbos” once now, for every week forever, and not have to bother every Shabbos? It kind of misses the point.
Whenever I see cheap-shots, I automatically assume that the person handing it is wrong.
The problem is, in many arguments, both sides take cheap shots. (I am not necessarily referring to the argument which prompted this discussion, just making a general observation.)
Why else would they stoop to this?
It might have more to do with the person’s middos than the validity of the specific argument.
The question was who can help answer the question; not Why is this individual asking for proof.
Why people ask this question directly correlates to how the question should be answered.
I happen to agree with TBT (and those who agreed with TBT).
That having been said, the professionals who deal with this (I’m sorry I have no specific recommendations) deal with it, as chalilavchas said, “with the human touch”.
But thanks to all the CR psychiatrists who understand people and have all the answers.
The Torah commands even a simple 13 year old boy or 12 year old girl to believe in Hashem. It is therefore obvious that anyone who lacks faith is missing something outside of the realm of intellectual proof. See R’ Elchonon Wasserman’s Kovetz Ma’amarim (I think it’s the first one) for a deeper explanation. (There other approaches which differ from R’ Elchonon’s, but my statement is true according to them as well.)
Dermabrasion.
Just Hovering,
Your respect for Judaism is beautiful.
To clarify, the title of this discussion is misleading. A Jew is a Jew regardless of affiliation and observance.
The title refers to the unfortunate phenomenon of “conversions” taking place outside of the parameters of Jewish law (halacha). Unfortunately, as well, some “branches of Judaism” have corrupted the definition of halacha. As hudi stated, though, someone who was born Jewish remains a Jew.
Good luck!
I don’t think too many people would have a problem with a seven month expectant mother, who can barely stand, getting a three and a half block ride with a male neighbor who she knows to be safe. Feel good, and bisha’ah tova.
See ‘??”? ??”? ??”? ??’ ?.
Over ???, I saw the ??? ????? with ??????. We do paskin this way, with possible ???? ??????. There is basis for the ???? described by SJS and rabbiofberlin, at the very least, to avoid issues of ?????.
Oh, I thought surf and turf was any fish and meat.
HRH,
Thanks, I hadn’t seen that. I guess we’ve ID’d each other! 🙂
rabbiofberlin,
I need to check, but I thought that the ???? was in context of ????? ???? being ???? a previous ????, and ????? ??? discussing ???? in the context of marriage (i.e. married civilly).
r-b,
Maybe, but they use the same tank as the windshield fluid. (Actually, I doubt they use fluid at all, but I have seen those wipers.)
Mr.80,
I can explain the beginning. HRH posted his first post, and the second one was me imitating his screen name. Yes, there is a glitch which allows me to, it’s discussed in a different thread. I will now change the second poster’s name to “see i told you so” to demonstrate”.
r-b,
Yes, I was restating it.
rabbiofberlin,
The words “absolute worst” were taken directly from RK’s post.
Every ???? ???? creates a ??? ??????? I’ve never heard that before.
You called it ?????, I used the term “not an ?????”, we mean the same thing.
SJS,
No apology necessary, I just wanted to point out (since the OP just posted a link to a ?”? which many people might not get) what the topic was about.
Surf and turf is not a kosher concept because of the halachos of separating fish and meat!
whocares,
Such are the natures of human beings.
Shlishi,
I sure hope the batei din have it figured out by now! Most of the time, BTW, it makes much more sense for the ???? ????? to just go to a rov proficient in C.M. without a formal beis din.
metrodriver,
I actually thought “cleaning the rotors” was being used to mean cutting the rotors.
Walmart has the best prices on headlight fluid. 🙂
Thanks for the info.
For the record, the OP was referring to fish cooked in a meat pot.
rabbiofberlin,
Just to clarify, I assume Raphael Kaufman, when he says, “the absolute worst thing that could happen”, means if the relationship started in the car develops further.
Wolf – Maybe the teacher was reffering to when the hitcher wasn’t a stranger.
I fail to see the difference.
Aside from the inherent difference in the realm of tzniyus (there’s a concept of ??? ?? ??), if the teacher was referring to someone known to the driver, there might not be a safety issue, only a tzniyus issue.
rabbiofberlin,
The “issur of the woman on her husband” is true if the husband is a ??? or if she is not an ?????.
The first part I also fail to understand.
shlishi,
There are some .?.? that will pasken ???, but your point is well taken; if the defendant would Insist on ???, that should force the plaintiff to find a .?.? that will pasken ???.
Then how do you explain the concept of “ain ma’alin?”
To protect others from a dangerous person.
Do we say ??? ????? in any situation other than when the guilty person is a threat to others? If not, there’s a clear distinction.
No surf and turf!
What’s that?
