Well all of you on the east coast are finished with your fast. We still have to wait!!!!!!!!!!!!! Think of us as you feast. ๐
postsemgirl, Smile E Face, & Syag:
You’re all WRONG. It’s MY 7-11. And I didn’t see any of you there. Oh wait, I wasn’t there. But my son was. He said said the lines were way too long and he had to get back to work (a block away from OUR 7-11) so he missed out on his free slurpee ๐
Hey I heard they’re giving out free slurpees tomorrow for all of us who missed it. ๐
pixelate – Thanks. We will look it up IY”H.
The Chassidishe Gatesheader – “That’s what many Chabadniks did, by the way” They did? I work with a lot of Lubavitchers. They don’t seem to have lost the faith they had before. Do you know specifically of chabad people who left yiddishkeit after the rebbe passed away?
Also you wrote “I promise you Moshiach will come during my lifetime! (Chabad, Rav Kaduri…)” Now I’m asking this question seriously; how could they promise? We see it didn’t happen yet. So what does this mean?
pixelate- I’ve never heard of that. I was also taught since childhood that Moshiach has to come by the year 6000. So according to the rabbi in the shiur you heard, what happens to this world at the year 6000? Does Moshiach come and then another world is created? Or does this world just get destroyed – chas v’shalom – without having Moshiach? Which shiur on Torahanytime was it? My daughter likes to listen to shiurim on there. Maybe she can help me find it.
writersoul – sorry – i hadn’t even seen your post when I posted mine. (if you look – both of ours were put up 3 hrs ago, they probably hit at the same time). So please don’t take offense at what I wrote. It’s some of the other comments that I was referring to. It just sounds to me like they are joking about a serious topic.
I thought this was going to be a serious topic. I guess not.
Buy a steering wheel cover. even though it seems like a warm material, it doesn’t feel warm and it’s certainly better than the hot leather of the wheel!
One of my daughters would love a dolphin! But….. we don’t have room in our bathtub ๐ Any suggestions?
Can you set one up in chicago? how about a sleep away camp for women?

What’s a triennial service?
I started this thread a while ago:
http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/is-anyone-else
Popa – “For someone so easily offended, you sure do seem callous about offending others.”
+10000
SGenendel – “I just think it’s awesome that I understand the psychology behind it.”
Oy – do you have issues! You actually think you know exactly why ppl do things? Wow! BTW – Thou protesteth too much! And you sound so bitter. I think I know exactly why your hosts locked their doors.(now i’m the one who knows why ppl do things)
me? or yummy cupcake?
Curiosity – True – we should not be bashing anyone. We can and should express our opinions nicely. I hope I didn’t offend the OP. Please forgive me Slichosgenendel if I did.
Popa – I am actually in agreement with you ๐ (remember all our good arguments in the past?)
But seriously, SLICHOSGENENDEL- what is wrong with someone locking their bedroom door? It’s their home and their business. Maybe they didn’t have time to clean up, maybe they were being cautious – yes frum people can be snoopy and look into people’s personal stuff. I’ve heard stories. Whatever their reason, it’s none of your business. It’s not weird at all! As someone else pointed out, be grateful that they let u use their home. I hope you brought them a gift to thank them.
Or maybe their rooms are a mess and didn’t want you to see it.
I think they should have one elevator for women and one for men. Forget about the Shabbat elevator. ๐
I understand the thing about us having a right to our privacy. I get it. HOWEVER – we live in a crazy world now and I believe the government should do whatever they can to protect us. Hey – I have nothing to hide – I’m not planning on blowing up anyone, etc.. So why should I care if they have my phone and email records?
But now that the terrorists know about this, they will find another way to communicate – great! What do we do now????
I also know a few people and they know me.
Yup- I certainly do remember WEVD and Art Raymond -Avraham Yitzchok (I think that’s what he used to say his name is)
Anyway I listened to it all the time. When I moved to Chicago, I really missed it.
I gather from the first post that it’s not around anymore.
Is Art Raymond still around? If so, does he still have a radio show?
Onoffonofff: Feeling better yet? It’s almost over. And if you’re on the east coast- which I’m assuming you are, then consider yourself lucky, we have an hour more than you.
When you get the money, can I be your best friend? Pleeeeeeze?
Wow! Pretty powerful, playtime. +100000
It really bothers me when I read some of the comments here. You never know what impact it can have on someone. Just because we are anonymous (most of us, anyway) doesn’t mean we don’t have feelings. It’s just as much of an aveira to hurt someone here as it is in person.
By the time you finish this conversation, the fast might be over already. So keep posting. Time flies when ur having fun. Oh wait, we’re not supposed to have fun today. ๐
Gamanit: I was referring to the way people write it (as writersoul mentioned).
Haifagirl: I understand you get irritated when people speak or write incorrectly, but please don’t be so hard on them – specifically Shopping613. I really think this thread should just be a fun thread. I myself do not claim to have good grammar. In fact when asked what language I speak fluently, I say none – not even English ๐
And this MUST to be said with the proper Yiddish/Boro Park/ Villamsburgh accent:
“Yoiiiish I can’t even tell you how stunning she looked. You won’t believe! Mamush unbelivable” (yes – I spelled (spelt-hehe) unbelievable that way because that’s how it’s pronounced in this situation) Actually it could also be “unbeleeeeevable”
This is also not said only by Jews; but what’s with the “could of” and “should of”. It’s “have” not “of”.
Come on, I want to hear some more examples. This is hilarious and true. I’ve heard them so many times. One of my daughters actually uses the “I’m being by my friend….” expression.
Hey Smile E. Face – haven’t seen you here in a long time ๐
Oh Schreck! I got your joke (by your first post) and thought it was funny. It’s good to be humorous sometimes.
popa – yeah ur right. we are the midwest, not middle america. my bad. hey I’m from new york, what do i know about the rest of the country? ๐
lesschumras – IT’S NOT OK! Thanks for asking.
popa – Are you meeting midwesterner in starbucks again? Maybe we can all have a cr get together there. BTW – we’ve installed sidewalks since you’ve last been here. ๐
95 – you still didn’t tell me why my comment was deleted.
On the first thread, somebody posted that these vouchers were not something given as tzedaka to people, which made the entire thread a mistake.
After a day or two, nobody had disputed that. So I assumed it was true. So I closed the thread.
This thread was opened for the purpose of discussing the hypothetical issue of whether it is appropriate to take tzedaka for shabbos shoes. Your comment went back to the vouchers, which seemed to be reigniting the mistake. So I deleted it. I’m sorry if this insulted you.
Since then, it has been claimed that perhaps these vouchers really are given as tzedaka. I have no idea what the case is.
haifa – Nobody said you’re thin skinned. It’s just that people do appreciate when others agree with them, or stick up for them. But,I guess it doesn’t matter to you.
Also Health has a history of…shall we say…. not being so nice (to put it mildly).
