    Commonsaychel,

    It wasn’t but I guess the guy talked a lot on the titanic

    The definition of drone (before drones were invented) is to speak tediously in a low monotonic sound

    “If they clean the bugs off their lettuce it’s the same as any other lettuce.

    It’s not like even the frummest kitchens are guaranteed to know how to be bug free.”

    N0mesorah,

    Not sure where you live but the frummest kitchens are somech on a vaad hakashrus and don’t check their own vegetables

    “@coffee-addict I’m not sure what to take from that story. Obviously you viewed things one way, but I don’t know the precise circumstances, nor the people involved, to say that it’s an indictment of MO Yiddishkeit.“

    I was saying a compliment to MO (at least to that MO kid) not sure where you got that I was bashing MO

    “You can eat salads from most Barely Orthodox homes.“

    Where do you get that from? You know there are bugs in lettuce that three washes can’t take out

    Joe,

    I figured you would nitpick

    A pessimist always sees the glass half full and the Mishnah in pirkei avos calls this an Ayin Rah

    Btw lobster is a sheretz so it’s six lavin that makes it worse than chazir

    I’m not dealing with the older generation they might be a lost cause

    And in my case the salad is also sheratzim however it seems like MO has gone away from the shittah that lettuce is a miyoot hamatzoi

    I’m sorry to hijack this thread, not really interested in starting a new one and not interested in looking for one that it will fit into better

    The shul that I daven shachris in (because it’s near my job) is MO. Today in between the first and second minyan I eavesdropped a little on a conversation that the rabbi of the shul was having with a father and his teenage son, it seems like there is going to be an engagement in the family and the other side might want to do it in a restaurant that’s not so kosher so the son wanted to know what he should do if that is the case. The rabbi said obviously you can’t eat the meat, but the cold food shouldn’t be a problem and that includes the salads

    The boy wasn’t comfortable with it

    End of story one

    A few nights ago I was at a simcha of the Rav of my shul where I live and one of the attendees (who is a big part of the shul) was asking who’s the caterer and found out that it was a well known caterer, so he tells this story that he was at a different simcha a while ago and asked about the meat to the mashgichim over there and they didn’t know, so he goes around to the rabbanim at the simcha and tells them the mashgichim don’t know who gives hashgacha on the meat and everyone just kept on eating

    I’m sorry if the point of my stories aren’t clear, but what I’m saying is, is that everyone is judged on his level, the MO kid that will be going to a not so kosher restaurant is giving more nachas to Hashem than the rabbanim that was ok with the meat

    This is probably the best place to put my question (not interested in starting a new one)

    “Yes its call the troller supermarket“

    One way to spot a troll is if they haven’t posted anything from n the CR since they opened their account (3 years and 11 months ago) and they start by posting a new thread that could be inflammatory

    My point was that when it comes to the midrash, you look in mefarshim to understand what it meant.
    When it comes to a sicha, you refuse to even open up the sicha itself and see what it says, let alone ask someone learned in these subjects to explain it properly (excluding those in the CR. Online discussions just go in circles.)

    I’m going to bring up Rav Shach זצ״ל again

    Do Lubavitchers know the context of what he said regarding the rebbe, you don’t

    Nowhere in the Torah or Halacha does it say that we have to view אחרונים as תנאים

    Do you have a source for that?

    There are numerous reasons why having dairy is a minuag for shavuos

    Why is that different than food in general that numerous stores and people make in excess that gets thrown out daily

    in reply to: Why אחדות is a condition for קבה”ת? #2193165
    ☕️coffee addict
    Participant

    ישראל ואורייתא וקודשא בריך הוא חד הוא

    When klal yisrael is באחדות then we can be called ישראל

    That’s why ויחן שם ״ישראל״ נגד ההר

    I want to make an observation though

    It seems like klal yisrael’s problem by קבלת התורה was the ג עבירות חמורות (we see that by the חטא העיגל) as such the first beis hamikdash was destroyed for those things

    The next”קבלת התורה” was Purim (קימו וקיבלו) but they didn’t have אחדות (they were מפוזר ומפורד בין העמים) which is why the second beis hamikdash was destroyed because of שנאת חינם

    Makes sense?

    👋 Neville Chaimberlin! Of course I remember you!

    Syag I’m assuming left (for good? I sure hope not) because trolls were bothering her too much

    The current lefties are jackk, Gadolhadorah (who has moved somewhat to the center) and CTlawyer (who was probably around when you were here)

    A lot of righties did leave (or haven’t posted as much) I think it’s due to the fact that their president isn’t president (which happened to a degree when Trump was president it had more of a right feel to it)

    We do have our trolls (not to the level of pba, oh how I miss him) but they are the occasional Yeshiva bein hazmanin variety

    I hope this helps
