Looks like I was wrong WTP!
Wow. I Googled it but didn’t do a good enough job because it looks like he wasn’t as far as I know. He was supposedly good for Russian Jewry, or something.
Sorry! Well, there goes my rhyme.
Who is rebyidd32?
Boris Yeltsin was a Jew, may his memory be a blessing.
Dunno if he had an engagement party but he had a communist one.
Maybe the boar is a sign that it is better to have a vort π than a bort πΉ (acronym for Boris Yeltsin and sounds like boar). But if you’re Boris Yeltsin’s mom then it is better to have both πΉπ.
Thank you and this concludes the first segment of the boar files. π
Oh! Was this what you were talking about in the thread about the seagull?!
What thread are you referring to?
The article talks about marriage.
I get it and I’m sorry that you feel ashamed of yourself. You’re a wonderful person and Hashem made you YOU to fulfill a very special mission that only YOU can accomplish.
I have questioned myself at times when someone was offended for something that I also did not believe was offensive. And honestly, it really got to me. I started doubting myself, adapting my words so that I dare not offend anyone, and still there were times that someone got offended. Where did I go wrong? I cannot be myself and I cannot be someone else!
Then I spent some time away. Really thinking about whether or not I belonged. Whether or not I had something to contribute. I realized that sometimes someone else’s offense has nothing to do with me. At least, I am okay. I was okay and will be okay. It still hurts. But maybe instead of taking it personally, I can just appreciate the person because I know that this speaks of what the other person is going through.
Plus, I am not perfect. Maybe I too take offense at times when someone else did not mean to be offensive. And I can be more forgiving. And learn to think of the best intentions in each person, as long as I ensure my own health in the process.
The reason why I am sharing this with you is because I want you to know that you are not alone. Hashem will guide you. And please remember that you are here because the world needs you. Just as the world needs those that get offended. It may not make sense.
And anyway, did you see that seagull? Maybe the dropping of that fish back into the ocean was a sign. Sometimes it feels like we are in the jaws of death. Suddenly taken out from our entire universe. We cannot survive without that water. Yet some terror swoops in and who am I? Am I a fish? Why am I in the air? This hurts! A lot! And then bamm. Back into the sea! Let yourself feel proud. And come back and see that you are you for a very special reason.
Thank you π
Thank you for the clarification Nechomah π
A family member made liver in chopped pieces, so until today that’s what I thought that’s what people refer to when they say “chopped liver.” I don’t think we had chopped liver ever growing up.
Anyway.. CTLAWYER —Maybe I’ve also never had pate. I thought that pate was pasty. That reminds me of crunchy peanut butter.
Okay so thank you for the food lessons π Yay I feel more cultured now!
What’s the meaning of a boar by the vort?
Depends on whether your acquaintance is rooting for the seagull or fish
Because of Siegelman’s
Toes were invented so people could get pedicures.
Without toes, many people would be out of business.
Toes reduce poverty.
Like sliced cheese!
There is a difference between a peach and a nectarine.
Because while you were talking that bird just swooped into the sea and def came up with a fish.
You didn’t see it? I thought that’s what you were talking about, just metaphorically or something.
Did you just see that seagull drop a fish from up there?
To prevent a long stay… Serve Hashem now with JOY π
Because if you teach children that cannibalism is wrong then they will want to cannibalize.
BoysWork: You said, “when I walk into the supermarket or walmart and see people marching around in hats, I just donβt get it. Especially when its hot outside.”
Maybe think about this… Sometimes hats stay on someone’s head better than a kippa. Especially for someone who may have thinning hair. Even if it is hot outside, some men may feel more secure that their head is covered because they are wearing a hat. It’s not going to slide off or fall off.
That’s one practical possibility.
Thanks π
Is it worth it to get slow cooker just for Shabbos?
Then again maybe getting one just got Shabbos will show me how awesome they are and then I will end up using it more often and it will be wonderful?
It just seems like it would take up a lot of counter space, and my cabinet storage is prob not an option.
Can you make chulent in a veggie streamer rice cooker? It turns the cooker part off after the liquid is dried up and then keeps the food warm all Shabbos. Though if the food is thicker soupy like chulent it may just burn at the bottom, and then turn off automatically while the food is still liquidy.
Thank you π
Are pangolins like puffins? Eating cereal taught me about them.
Also how do you standardize pens? Pencils must be #2 lead. Maybe the thickness. Thicker pencils for small hands. Pens may still use those grippy block things but anyway.
There are fountain pens and ballpoint pens. Are you using inexpensive ballpoints that clot in weird places? Nicer ballpoints?
Fountain pens that run all over the place? Getting pen marked smeared on your page and the side of your writing hand?
Does each teacher announce which pen to use? Can you bring a pen that you got for free from the bank?
Thank you
Grinder for the liver? Is chopped liver a pate?
I thought that was liver pate or something. And chopped liver was literally cubes of chopped liver cooked with spices and usually onions?
Thank you
I love listening to longer shiurs on TorahAnytime! The shorter ones are about a halacha, a brief look at the parsha, a moment of inspiration, and other good stuff.
The longer ones let me settle in and absorb the meaning. Plus there is more time to go into depth.
So yay for longer.
Granted short shiurs or speeches have their occasions too.
Lol!!! Well the topic was about a viral video and the OP did claim that “We all have seen the video” (OP), and other posters mentioned at least someone who hasn’t seen the video… so yes, off topic π
But still I would rather watch the fox playing with a dog toy than the Pope, I think.
BTW, how is popa bar abba?
I didn’t see the video but there is this super cute viral video going around with a wild fox playing with a dog’s toy that the dog left outside in his yard. The dog is just watching from the window as this orange fox is having the time of his life! So adorable!
