HaLeivi,if the poster is embarrassed then isn’t it o’na’as devorim to pursue it?
I also think I figured out a friend,but as soon as I mentioned it,the person changed the subject.
That was my cue to drop it like a hot potato.
You seem intuitive in general,so I’m sure you agree.
eclipseMemberIn Lieu of Mishloach Manos,I paid my Con Ed bill.
(joke)
eclipseMembermytake…well-said.
eclipseMemberIf a post bothers you,comment on that thread.
No need to insult globally.
I personally have requested several of my own posts deleted if even one poster was upset by it.
eclipseMemberOk,Mods if you agree with tbt,you can delete my posts.
Sorry!
eclipseMemberOh!And since you asked,coming home at 4:00 a.m. is not good manners.
eclipseMemberOh…I forgot:
Hiding the stamps,writing paper,and toilet paper because you think it’s being “wasted” is disturbed behavior.
And never make your wife return items to the grocery store because you don’t think the purchase was necessary…
eclipseMemberThank you,everyone.
If only people would realize that when you don’t do teshuvah….there is midah k’neged midah.
There was no DAMAGE CONTROL in my situation and the long-term ramifications of that are quite serious.
eclipseMemberSpeaking of men and manners….
A word to the wise:
1.Beards must be shampooed.
2.Deoderant on top of shvitz is ineffective.
3.Learning gemara while your kid is dangling from a chandelier is odd.
4.Don’t tell your wife you’ll watch the kids so she can sleep and then promptly fall asleep 2 minutes later.
More manners available upon request.
eclipseMemberthere’s a vacuum of apartments I can rent here….to get back on track here…!:)
eclipseMemberI would,but it’s not Adar material,trust me!!
I need to strengthen my trust in Hashem….
My internal computer is “detecting issues”!
ok…..”issue has been resolved”!
eclipseMemberLots of dust back here!
eclipseMemberDon’t know the tune!
eclipseMemberRudy Giuliani-I think he was an exemplary leader during 9/11.
eclipseMembera straightforward oxymoron
eclipseMemberI’m behind the couch.
eclipseMemberI live here,remember?
eclipseMemberOy.I don’t know where I’m moving yet,so I guess it’s not gonna work.Sounds ideal though!
eclipseMemberCan I apply?
Be honest,I’d rather be rejected in here than out there!:)
I’m friendly…but a “girl”…well….
eclipseMemberhappiest:Miriam Adahan says:Ride the waves…know it will pass and mainly…keep busy with normal routine.
If you’re up to it,do positive acts that help others.
And,as others have said,HASHEM is there for you,24/7.
P.S. I admire your courage,strength,honesty,and perserverance!!
eclipseMembercshapiro…is it in Flatbush,Boro Park,Manhattan??
And can the person “just sit and look average”?:)
eclipseMemberGoogled it,there’s an audio version of the tape.Funny to hear it again 2 decades later!
eclipseMembercshapiro…no skills?Does that mean $5 an hour?
eclipseMemberOh!

eclipseMemberBezalel,thanks.I wonder why not?
Thanks,600kilo!
March 14, 2011 3:57 pm at 3:57 pm in reply to: If One More Person Gives Me Unsolicited Advice…. #749396eclipseMemberIt was,thanks for validating!
eclipseMemberIt came with a corresponding book written by Yaffa Ganz.The tape was by Simone Blaustien from Crown Heights.That’s what I recall.
March 14, 2011 4:30 am at 4:30 am in reply to: If One More Person Gives Me Unsolicited Advice…. #749394eclipseMemberalways…they totally deserve that,but if I’m outright rude,won’t I just get MORE UNWANTED advice?
March 14, 2011 3:59 am at 3:59 am in reply to: If One More Person Gives Me Unsolicited Advice…. #749391eclipseMemberHealth…good advice,thanks!
March 14, 2011 3:39 am at 3:39 am in reply to: If One More Person Gives Me Unsolicited Advice…. #749388eclipseMemberI’ll take that positively.
eclipseMemberI can get a fancy sparkling grape juice and Schmerling chocolate bars with food stamps–even if I don’t have cash.I think my kids’ teachers and rebbeim understand.And the nice notes are free,and appreciated.If I ever do have the extra cash to give…I’ll send,gladly.
March 14, 2011 3:31 am at 3:31 am in reply to: If One More Person Gives Me Unsolicited Advice…. #749386eclipseMemberyoyo…yes.Why?
eclipseMemberthat’s funny!
March 14, 2011 12:31 am at 12:31 am in reply to: If One More Person Gives Me Unsolicited Advice…. #749381eclipseMemberthanks!
eclipseMemberthanks,but I b”h have work I do from home these days,it’s just that I may need to move out of Brooklyn and that only makes sense with a proper job.
eclipseMemberChava gave us the gift of hormones….
eclipseMemberjofes–you said you know me.Who are you?(hint?)
eclipseMemberAsk around.
March 13, 2011 2:23 pm at 2:23 pm in reply to: If One More Person Gives Me Unsolicited Advice…. #749376eclipseMemberDaas…thanks!Very good answers!
And thanks everyone for validating me!I appreciate it!
eclipseMemberOf course it’s true:)The airline had lost my luggage,that’s why I got my clothing back about a month later…it was worth it,just for that.
March 13, 2011 12:31 pm at 12:31 pm in reply to: If One More Person Gives Me Unsolicited Advice…. #749371eclipseMemberSince I slept,and am in a lighter mood,here are some of the laughable things I’ve been told over the last few years.
“What?!You have …(amt.)kids and you got divorced? DIDN’T YOU HAVE ANY SELF-CONTROL???”
“What?!You were married …(amt.)years and THEN you got divorced?Why on earth did you WAIT so long??”
“Oh,don’t worry,you can get back together–even after a ‘get’,really!”
“DID YOU EVER CONSIDER INITIATING MARRIAGE COUNSELLING?”
“You know who suffers from the selfishness of the parents?Your kids!”
ETC.,ETC.
A word to the wise:
The LESS you say,the wiser you’ll stay.
eclipseMemberI think the Mishpacha prints way too many oversimplified (and therefore irresponsible) articles.The article that prompted me to call them once, was the one about a lady with an abusive husband who apparently turned into a little tzadik AS SOON AS SHE FIXED ALL HER FLAWS.I told them they had better put in another article balancing that out with one based on reality or ALL my relatives would be photocopying that story and mailing it to me!I even offered to meet with them in person.They humored me for a few minutes on the phone,this one told me to call that one…b’kitzur,nothing came of it.
eclipseMemberAbout a month after my mother was nifteres,I found a watch she’d lent me in my robe pocket.I took that as a message:”I may be gone,but YOU still have TIME IN YOUR POCKET…MAKE THE MOST OF IT…”
March 13, 2011 4:45 am at 4:45 am in reply to: If One More Person Gives Me Unsolicited Advice…. #749364eclipseMemberLike today:
Me:So my daughter came to visit…
She:Make sure she always feels welcome!
Me:Yes,she knows,that’s why she came…
She:She knows?!Do you tell her?
Me:Of course,and it’s a given…
She:You might think so,but do you tell her you love her?Blah,blah,blah..
March 13, 2011 4:37 am at 4:37 am in reply to: If One More Person Gives Me Unsolicited Advice…. #749363eclipseMemberI wish I knew how to be “cool” and a little “snobby” when people overstep their boundaries.I am just too warm to be “cool”!!
Really. Mean is incorrect and immature,but you do simply need to be “cool” when people’s chutzpah disconcerts you.I am not the least bit shy,but certain things catch me off-guard.
Ever think of the BEST COMEBACKS in the shower 3 hours too late,at three a.m.5 days later,and when it’s just ridiculous to bring up the topic again?
eclipseMemberTeechuh,pazhalesta!!
March 13, 2011 3:30 am at 3:30 am in reply to: If One More Person Gives Me Unsolicited Advice…. #749354eclipseMembercorrections: ONE-liner and weLL (couldn’t edit!)
