September 26, 2017 10:22 am at 10:22 am in reply to: Who left this brown garbage can in front of my house? #1369925MenoParticipant
How exactly is the City of New York recycling my leftover chulent and chicken bones?
I’m not sure I want to hear the answer.
MenoParticipantI was once in a college class (R”L) and the professor went on a whole rant about how we don’t read the news so we don’t know what’s going on in the world, so a guy in the class called out:
“Whadya mean?! I get Yeshiva World on my Blackberry!”
September 25, 2017 11:11 pm at 11:11 pm in reply to: Who left this brown garbage can in front of my house? #1369778MenoParticipantThis brown garbage can has my address on it.
And it’s little, but not in a cute way.
I don’t want it.
MenoParticipantSo what is all this supposed to accomplish again?
September 25, 2017 9:13 am at 9:13 am in reply to: Trump I should the most unpresidential president ever!!!🤡👾😺🤖☠️😾 #1368504MenoParticipantWhat?
MenoParticipantSeriously, what kind of name is Algore anyway?
MenoParticipantHe did bring proof: The fossil fuel companies say its false, so it must be true.
MenoParticipantSo some people do hatoras nedarim with a few people at once so it takes less time (i.e. they have 6 people, 3 are dayanim and 3 are the people asking, and then they switch).
What’s the deal with that?
Also, I saw in the Artscroll Hebrew siddur (Nusach Ashkenaz) it says “יש שאומרים אותו בפני ג” (or something like that)
Are there those who say you can do it with less than 3 dayanim?
MenoParticipantWhat’s the difference between the two?
Is that a rhetorical question? Because I can think of at least one difference.
MenoParticipantI give up
MenoParticipantArgh, autocorrect.
I meant to say a rooftop shilen
MenoParticipantDon’t forget to make an ear of tough shealyn
MenoParticipantI actually thought it rhymed with Ate, but I now realize that I was incorrect.
MenoParticipantIf you make a shlissel challah with a fake key, you get fake rich.
I don’t like to take any chances.
MenoParticipantAle
MenoParticipant“Bad advise for not warming up your car in the winter. U maybe saving gas but your damaging engine snd possibly transmission.”
That’s false. Your car warms up much quicker while being driven than it does while idling.
September 19, 2017 1:56 pm at 1:56 pm in reply to: Value in preserving a historic home’s character #1366911MenoParticipantWe read here frequent complaints about how yidden often fail to pay attention to the upkeep of their homes relative to their neighbors…
Gadolhadorah,
Who’s “we”? Where’s “here”?
I’ve never read any such complaints on YWN.
I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again: Please stop making up stories to justify your hatred of religious Jews.
September 19, 2017 11:37 am at 11:37 am in reply to: Difficulty with morning Shachris routine #1366829MenoParticipantHow does he know he can’t get up early if he doesn’t go to sleep early?
Try getting a night shift job.
September 19, 2017 9:44 am at 9:44 am in reply to: Why its important to show pictures of Married Couples #1366703MenoParticipantWhy do you need a picture of a happy couple to teach you to love your spouse?
Why do many shuls hire a professional shaliach tzibur for yomim noraim? The words are all the same. I’m sure they could find someone in the shul who can get up there and say the words correctly.
The answer is that a good shaliach tzibur can be inspiring, and can therefore cause one to daven better.
The same can be said about this picture. It’s not teaching a lesson which you couldn’t learn anywhere else, it’s inspiring (or at least it is to some people). Knowing the right thing to do is very often not enough. You need something to inspire you to do it.
MenoParticipantThe CR is a gig newton
September 19, 2017 9:09 am at 9:09 am in reply to: Why its important to show pictures of Married Couples #1366684MenoParticipantAnd if one says that R’ Wosner’s expression is showing how to relate to one’s wife, then it would technically be enough just to show his face, with a caption stating that he was looking at his wife at the time of the picture.
The picture is inspiring. The picture and caption that you describe don’t sound nearly as inspiring. Inspiring things often lose their effect if you explain them too much.
MenoParticipantWhat’s wrong with meat from animals?
MenoParticipantAh I see. So I’ll rephrase:
Meno loves driving to McDonalds on Shabbos and eating cheeseburgers.
It’s so much fun.
MenoParticipantFunny you should say that…
September 18, 2017 10:37 pm at 10:37 pm in reply to: Value in preserving a historic home’s character #1366615MenoParticipantNo
MenoParticipantI love driving to McDonalds on Shabbos and eating cheeseburgers.
It’s so much fun.
MenoParticipant“FAILURE TO RESPOND TO THIS SUMMONS IS PUNISHABLE BY A FINE OF UP TO $1,000 OR IMPRISONMENT OF UP TO 30 DAYS OR BOTH”
Good idea. Maybe I’ll try that
MenoParticipantI just got the letter today so I’m sure I can postpone. I was just wondering if anyone had a better way to go about it.
Thanks for the tip ZD
MenoParticipantThat’s why they recommend 2-step verification
September 18, 2017 11:11 am at 11:11 am in reply to: Why its important to show pictures of Married Couples #1366229MenoParticipantNo, Slominer, I think you still missed it. We can learn a lot by watching gedolim, even if they aren’t “attempting to impart a point”.
MenoParticipantCTLAWYER,
Do you ever find a cow to be a treifah? If so, what do you do with it?
September 18, 2017 10:41 am at 10:41 am in reply to: Why its important to show pictures of Married Couples #1366174MenoParticipantSlominer,
You also missed the point
September 18, 2017 10:21 am at 10:21 am in reply to: Why its important to show pictures of Married Couples #1366158MenoParticipantBut are the rest of us really on his madreiga?!
So you’re saying we shouldn’t learn from a gadol because we’re not on his madreiga?
I think you missed the point.
September 17, 2017 10:56 am at 10:56 am in reply to: New Kol Koreh: most sheitel hair come from Indian temples of Avodah Zarah. #1365150MenoParticipantIt works!!!
My time machine works!!!
September 15, 2017 1:57 pm at 1:57 pm in reply to: Why did Hashem give us two ears but only one mouth? #1364423MenoParticipantSo we can hear in stereo, and thereby discern the direction from which sounds are coming.
Having two mouths would have no such benefit.
MenoParticipantThen she said that she wouldn’t do this with steak, but chopped beef is okay…
Why wouldn’t she do it with steak?
Ground beef is just ground steak. Probably a different cut, but the salmonella doesn’t know the difference.
September 14, 2017 12:41 pm at 12:41 pm in reply to: Makom Kavua – Being Kicked out of your Seat #1363569MenoParticipantShmoolik,
So that was you?
September 13, 2017 10:51 pm at 10:51 pm in reply to: Makom Kavua – Being Kicked out of your Seat #1363299MenoParticipantGroissechuchum, I think you’re talking about the other thread. This thread is different.
MenoParticipantNot that it’s your place to bully people for expressing their beliefs…
Oh puhleeease
September 13, 2017 10:06 pm at 10:06 pm in reply to: Makom Kavua – Being Kicked out of your Seat #1363257MenoParticipantThis has nothing to do with rights or entitlement.
It is about making another Jew feel uncomfortable.
September 13, 2017 4:54 pm at 4:54 pm in reply to: Makom Kavua – Being Kicked out of your Seat #1363053MenoParticipant…a more rational approach in a large shul, as many have posted, is open seating…
I don’t think anyone else posted that.
You tend to do that a lot – say that everyone agrees with you when no one actually does.
MenoParticipantbake or fry and enjoy!
A burger?
MenoParticipantTrue, I mean it’s just a kid. So what if they feel abandoned every now and then. They’ll get over it.
Now you’re getting it.
September 13, 2017 2:33 pm at 2:33 pm in reply to: Makom Kavua – Being Kicked out of your Seat #1362986MenoParticipant“shalom aleichem welcome to our neighborhood, I hope you have a meal for shabbos If not please let me help you. Oh and if you dont mind I usualy sit here please allow me to find you a seat that is available. would you like to be closer to the Air conditioner or further? and here is a Chumash for laining.”
In 9 out of 10 cases, the guest will feel much more comfortable if you left out the two lines about the seat. No question in my mind.
September 13, 2017 1:58 pm at 1:58 pm in reply to: Makom Kavua – Being Kicked out of your Seat #1362924MenoParticipantGadolhadorah,
That is incorrect. Everyone agrees that there is a concept of Makom Kavua.
September 13, 2017 10:45 am at 10:45 am in reply to: Makom Kavua – Being Kicked out of your Seat #1362734MenoParticipantI agree that it’s much worse when the member comes late (whatever “late” means), but I think it’s still a problem even when both people are on time.
The only way I could possibly be OK with it is if:
1) The member ASKS the guest to move in a VERY polite way.
AND
2) The member finds the guest another seat which he is absolutely sure is available.This may not be the case for everyone, but for a lot of people (myself included) it’s uncomfortable to daven in a new shul where you don’t know anyone. Being asked to move just multiplies that discomfort.
MenoParticipantLibby’s Naturals Canned Peas.
No salt or sugar added.
MenoParticipantI started a new thread to discuss the issue Joseph brought up. Feel free to head over there
https://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/makom-kavua-being-kicked-out-of-your-seat
MenoParticipantSo I’m guessing you posted this using one of those hand-crank emergency radios?
MenoParticipantIs anyone gonna answer my question?
