    I still think those of us who had subtitles before the “subtitle special” are still way cooler than you folks who got it on sale. (Sorry to whoever is was I stole that line from.) πŸ˜‰

    As far as the sig, there probably is a way to do it, but I write mine out every time. I’ve become so used to it that when I post on a different forum I need to stop myself from putting it at the bottom. (That goes for the end of emails etc.) Haaalp!

    I think its ok to text someone you speak with on a regular basis. Family, friends, co-workers etc. Authority figures should get a phone call, (unless told otherwise). They are different than a friend and should be treated differently than a friend. I will add to what aries said that couples should not text while dating or even during an engagement (but thats a separate discussion). Men and women (married or single) should not be texting each other for social (or even for business. Thats a very easy way to get into social texting.)

    I am. And sometimes a mod will edit a post (a note to the poster or something) instead of a new post, any way to put some sort of notification if that happens? Maybe the “last poster” could change colors or something…

    DY (and mod),

    I decided it would be a good thing to handle my decision change instead of having the mods fix it up for me. And I did that in the last week or so, and I didn’t want to get the “most troublesome poster” award. (So instead they had to mod a bunch of extra posts. Oh well.)

    Not really on the level of ILL (its not really a comedy, not sure how it would be classified) but from what I’ve seen its pretty clean (for the most part) and good, but try The Wonder Years.

    kapusta
    Participant

    I’m past seminary so maybe I’m not really qualified for this thread but I’m not gonna let that stop me. πŸ˜‰

    1.I know of one class in a certain school (not sure if its every year or only one class) that decided amongst themselves not to discuss seminary or getting accepted (among classmates/friends) for 2 days after getting letters. Believe it or not, it really helps. And just because you got in to your “choice” sem doesn’t mean the person you are asking did. If you are in a position to initiate something like this, know you will very likely be saving someone, somewhere, a lot of heartache. Even if only amongst your friends, its a big help.

    2. Its a big deal now but in 10 years it probably won’t make a difference. More importantly, you will end up in the place which you will be the best for, and which will be the best for you. A certain well known rav said his daughter applied to her first choice sem but didn’t get in. He had connections in the school and tried from every angle but couldn’t get anywhere. She went to a different sem where she ended up helping someone who needed it.

    Looking forward to hearing good news! Hatzlacha!

    Nope. Too many stories have made me incredibly scared too. (That, combined with being straight out stupid and against the law.)

    Before texting behind the wheel, a person should think of what to answer after 120, after knowingly putting many lives (driver, passengers, other cars, pedestrians) in danger.

    A few questions:

    1. If this does happen, I would think it would be in a situation where the boys family can not afford a real ring? If this is all they can do, is that anyones fault? Are they supposed to steal a ring for the new dil?

    2. Say it really does happen, what is there to do about it?

    3. Would a treated diamond pass inspection? Why is it different?

    in reply to: tznius to wear skirts that just hit the knee or are above the knee? #730958
    kapusta
    Participant

    dunno, just to set things straight, the short uniform skirt thing did not start in Masores. I could give you the name of the person who started it in a different school (another well known school). She is a good friend of mine (and a very good girl). Interesting enough, we were once discussing trendsetters in high schools and how certain things came to be and she mentioned the short skirts and honestly had no idea she was the one to start it.

    As for the OP, I think a lot of the issue is society. As was mentioned, some people will not go outside in a jeans skirt, but have no problem with a skirt that barely reaches the knee. A short skirt (read: a too short skirt) is a big problem in Halacha. A jeans skirt was made out to be a big problem. If the community would make noise about short skirts, you can bet they would be gone in a snap. On the bright side, I think slowly, things may be starting to improve.

    Disclaimer: I have nothing against anything thats tznius, jeans skirt included.

    Disclaimer 2: I didn’t read the entire thread, I apologize if I repeated what someone else said.

    Kitchen cleanup. But I guess that would fall into the dishwashing category.

    Re leftovers, just because its not a fresh cooked meal, no one else needs to know that. For most chicken and meat, you can add some veggies/rice/potatoes/sauce (tomato sauce from a jar is good but probably most sauces would work) and turn it into a completely “new” dish.

    Add some to lo mien. Toss it in with the veggies so it can pick up some of the flavor. Or instead of making a salad, add the dressing and grill or fry and coat in salad dressing.

    Probably most things (if not all) you can do with raw chicken cutlet you can do with it when it comes out of soup.

    80, garlic powder and salt? And margarine? Who are you really?!

    Smartcookie, make garlic oil and then transfer onto bread. Add dried parsley for color. (and maybe a drop of salt but I’m not sure its necessary.) But please, please, do not use garlic powder.

    Oomis, I didn’t mean gefilte fish, I meant meatballs and then separately ground fish, but I think ground was the wrong term. I meant something in the way of a fish patty.
