Well it does pay if you have relatives in Monroe so you can stop by for dinner.
Hi, you’ve reached edited, sorry I cant pick up the phone right now. Please leave me a message and I will try to get back to you as soon as I can. Thank you and have a great day!
BEEP.
When I got married me and my wife lived in Eretz Yisroel (Arzei area) for shana rishona, and my wife’s sister in seminary was constantly coming over with her friends for meals, to hang out, to sleep over. of course I wouldn’t have minded it was just my sister in law, but our tiny apartment was always flooded with girls and it was shana rishona! Does anyone think that the seminary teachers should advise the girls to maybe stay away from couples in shana rishona?
And this can be a notice to for all you girls in the CR that are in seminary or applying. Young married couples in E”Yoften have no privacy and its bad for shalom bayis.
is it worth the trip from N Y??
Isn’t Woodbury Commons IN NY?
Shopping: Yes that would be useful! But your subtitle is good too:)
Is kollel life the ideal or is working and should kollel folks get community support?
Kollel life is the ideal.
Also, should Israeli bochrim be forced to serve in the army?
No they shouldn’t, it would make them more liable to go off the derech.
Why is there such a shidduch crisis?
a) age gap
b) not enough good guys for the good girls
c) so that bored people can have something to rant about.
Is modern orthodoxy problematic?
Without a doubt, as their lines aren’t defined enough.
Why do people use labels like yeshivish, how accurate are labels anyway?
People use labels to seperate different categories of Jews, thus making it easier to discuss the various types. The labels are often misdefined. It takes finesse to label a category of people accurately.
Is it wrong to have a very expensive chasuna?
No, people should learn not be jealous of other people’s fancy weddings.
cholov yisroel- whats the deal?
The deal is to only drink milk when the milking of the cow was watched by a frum Jew.
Hey I always thought the mods weren’t human. And that they didn’t err.
It might have been more of a difference of opinion
Why was Mod-80’s sweater in your house? I would love to wear his sweater.
You know what would make the Coffee Room so much better?
If the latest post was on the top instead of the bottom. Scrolling down would get you earlier and earlier posts. So much more convenient and calls for easier reading and keeping up with the threads.

Beauty hurts. That’s an old one.
Honestly, I think at this point in the development of Monsey, most of the population here are doing beshows.
I didn’t know there was a seminary summer program..
Geordie: Where did you get the X from?
I actually don’t need a literal picture next to the username to visual a user. my brain does it automatically.
For example, this is how I visualize Shopping613:
Laden with packages over each arm, running around Malcha Mall looking in all the little stands for an emerald sword for sale.
No news is Yated, Hamodia, Mishpacha, and Ami on strike.
and because this thread is titled the monsey scoop: Community Connections, Consumer Maven(is it still around?), The Monsey View, and the Front Page are also on strike.
It takes finesse to make the right choice.
it takes only siyata dishmaya to make the right choice
My definition for yeshivish was always if you or your spouse /one or both of your parents are in chinuch, because it naturally makes the home a very torahdik and sheltered atmosphere. but lately im not sure if that’s so true..
Azerbaijan (spelled right?)
I do. their very into their extra curricular programs. They have a big play and I heard its the focus of the whole year.
writersoul: I was at Purple Pear last week and I saw a totally normal date there I was so shocked! then I figured the guy probably lives in Baltimore or something and never saw this thread:)
Technical20: did you know that BYA has this new thing that being in BYA high school doesn’t make you automatically get in to BYA seminary? so consider yourself lucky!
What’s the mekor that eliezer asked for Rivka’s resume?
The same place that has the mekor that shidduchim get redt to the boy first.
Of is the joy comparison thief.
A resume is just a paper with your name and some basic info on it so its easier for the boys mother to be organized. emphasis on boys mother.
MsPrincess: Psychology is easy and a lot of fun.

Yehupitzville
Shopping im waiting for you to say Chedvas?
It means their probably modern orthodox
Na id rather the Carousel
Who said BYR is modern?! Its pretty close to BYM now in yeshivishness
No news is Yes news, we just don’t know about it yet.
its better than being bittul zman by going through all the current threads that don’t interest me.
Just go shop for one, im sure you can have one of your own so as not to be over on the issur of lo sachmod.
I’m thinking maybe screennames davka should not have a yiddishe tam. Perhaps its a bizayon to Hashem? Or I guess it depends what the user is saying under that username..
But I’m not sure because that’ll mean I’ll need to change my secreenname which I don’t want to do.
Sorry this is me thinking aloud.
My chavrusa has this new thing that he likes to learn extra after maariv. So instead of our usual seder which brought us home at about 1l:30, he decided to learn extra and now only leaves shul at 12:30, 1:00. is this normal??
I know this thread was about working, but does it work the same way with learning?
Don’t go to Al Di La on a date! its definitely a really nice restaurant, but not a dating spot. too much in the center of things..
No news is good news.
Not me;) bli ayin hara
