MenoParticipant
I have a friend who’s a Dental resident at a clinic. He pulls teeth all the time. Costs like a hundred bucks without insurance.
Honestly I would trust him more than a lot of dentists
MenoParticipantYou’re probably oveir bal tashchis on whatever money you spend on it.
February 10, 2017 9:01 pm at 9:01 pm in reply to: Customs re: 2nd wedding for halachic reasons #1215582MenoParticipantYou absolutely must discuss this with an orthodox rabbi. Otherwise you’ll be back here in eleven years saying something like “my husband and I got married based on advice we got here and now we want to do it right”
MenoParticipantI would imagine the newer ones are all electric, which would mean they don’t use motor oil, just a little grease on the moving parts occasionally
MenoParticipantPeople are acting like they’ve never seen a snowstorm before. It’s not really a big deal.
Or is it? I’m not actually there…
MenoParticipantSure, if it works better that way then that’s what I meant
MenoParticipant“Can someone please explain to me why this years big snowstorm is transpiring on exact same date as last years big snowstorm on ?”? ????”
Well ?”? ??? is the same ?????? as ?”? ????
I think. I was never very good at that stuff
MenoParticipantI’m a coffee drinker. I’m actually drinking coffee right now, out of a paper cup. I don’t see any problem which requires a solution.
Also, you’ve clearly never held a handful of m&ms for more than 3 minutes
MenoParticipantWouldn’t you get chocolate all over your hands?
And why would this be better than a bottle made of plastic or glass?
MenoParticipantMy brother-in-law is a Rav.
Not me though.
MenoParticipantHow does Tu B’Shvat go with Freezer opens?
MenoParticipantCattle have it worse than sheep and fish. There is such a thing as “a fish” or “a sheep”. There’s no such thing as “a cattle”.
MenoParticipantMy brother-in-law is a Gaon.
Not me though
February 7, 2017 6:44 pm at 6:44 pm in reply to: Guy who knows everything here; ask me anything #1215250MenoParticipantLU,
I’m sorry you were offended, but my post was meant to be a joke in response to DaasYochid’s post. He posted a link to a mod’s thread about long posts, so I thought it would be funny to respond with a post that was excessively long and completely pointless (i.e. I posted a really long post while adding nothing but two characters). I see now that it seemed like I was agreeing with LF, but that’s not how I meant it.
February 7, 2017 5:53 pm at 5:53 pm in reply to: Guy who knows everything here; ask me anything #1215246MenoParticipant“Maybe the guy who knows everything could help me out.
I used to enjoy coming here to chill out. To share camaraderie, companionship. To enjoy the wide (wild) vast of opinions out there. To share jokes, a bright vertel, quip. To liven up my dull existence. And to bring joy and simcha, a smile and a grin to others. Lately this place has been more or less a back and forth conversation mainly between two people, back and forth and then forth and back. Pieces are so hard to read because each and every one of them are such long megillos. To make a short story long, the posts are so long, so very long. And they’re so hard to read. I don’t know if I mentioned it before, but it’s really hard to read. Because (whoops, I forgot why.. Oh, now I remember) they’re very long. And they are long megillos. So that’s why they’re not so easy to read. And keep track of. No – I don’t own the Coffee Room, never did and probably never will. So I really can’t have any complaints to anyone. I’m sure there are others too who no longer post here because there’s no more “room” in the coffee room.
So sum it up – I used to enjoy coming here to chill out. To share camaraderie, companionship. To enjoy the wide (wild) vast of opinions out there. To share jokes, a bright vertel, quip. To liven up my dull existence. And to bring joy and simcha, a smile and a grin to others. Lately this place has been more or less a back and forth conversation mainly between two people, back and forth and then forth and back.

I’m sure there are others too who no longer post here because there’s no more “room” in the coffee room.
So again, to make a short story long and then short, what do I do now?”

MenoParticipantThanks, but I don’t deserve a sympathy diamond. My dentist has been telling me to have it removed for years, but I’ve been dragging my feet for no reason.
Anyway, that diamond is really just a rotated square
MenoParticipantI had a dream last night that my teeth were falling out, but it wasn’t a nightmare. I have this impacted wisdom tooth, and in the dream it just randomly turned upright and then just fell out. I was so excited until I woke up and saw it was just a dream…
MenoParticipantDepends where you’re driving from. I wouldn’t drive from Japan to NY just to meet a shadchan
MenoParticipant1) Probably not Assur but might be inconvenient
1) Probably not Assur but might be inconvenient
MenoParticipantAll these things are much easier to say when you don’t have the money.
Maybe you’re stronger than I am, but I don’t think I would want to be tested like that.
MenoParticipantThe jackpot last year was around a billion dollars. All the things you just listed would barely scratch the surface. And again, it would take tremendous self-control to stick to only those things and not go overboard.
MenoParticipantUnless you have a tremendous amount of self control, it would be a real k’lalah to win that much money.
You wouldn’t fit in anywhere. You wouldn’t fit in with middle-class people because you’d be rich. You wouldn’t fit in with rich people because you wouldn’t actually be rich, you had just happened to have won a lot of money.
It wouldn’t be good.
MenoParticipantwow, I never realized that being a boy and wearing a tallis is so complicated!
I’m a man, not a boy. Thank you
MenoParticipantHmm. Maybe my shirts/jackets are non-slip.
MenoParticipant…OU allows students strawberries add raspberries without checking…
Trying to figure out what this was supposed to say…
MenoParticipantI think it’s more respectful to say “Thank you Rabbi_____” than to say “Thanks Rabbi_____”.
Just my opinion.
MenoParticipantIt’s not.
I do make an effort not to do any backflips in shul. Maybe that’s why my tallis stays on.
MenoParticipant“A segula for parnasssa is to get a job.”
Sounds like that professor is rubbing off on you
MenoParticipantI have a non slip and it doesn’t slip.
MenoParticipant“That is why it was very surprising to see peaches “certified” by the OU.”
You’ve seen whole fresh peaches certified by the OU?
MenoParticipant“…??????? ?????? ??? ?????? ?????? ????? ???????? ????? ?????????…”
MenoParticipantThey’re like regular hamantashen except they’re braided instead of folded into a triangle
MenoParticipant“Meno, can we agree to disagree?”
Not really sure what that means. It’s an objective thing that can be proven. They’re not the same song
MenoParticipantMods, please delete this thread. It borders on apikorsus
MenoParticipantOy what has become of this world. Next, they’ll start making chulent in electric slow cookers…
MenoParticipantIf I bake an omelette is it no longer an omelette?
MenoParticipantI would say it depends on the context. If you said “I ate a yoga mat for breakfast”, that’s probably fine.
MenoParticipantIs today my birthday? I can never keep track
MenoParticipantOh I see. There are boys like that in Lakewood?
MenoParticipantThe Jeopardy song IS TOO just “Twinkle Twinkle” with a funky beat. Try singing “Twinkle Twinkle” to the Jeopardy tune, and you’ll see that it fits.
It is totally not. The phrasing is the same but the notes are totally different.
Also, “You are my sunshine” and “This land is your land” use the same tune. As each other, I mean.
Also not true. Again, same phrasing, different notes.
MenoParticipantNevuchadretzar?
Oh that’s actually my middle name, so I guess both of my names were in the haftarah
MenoParticipantThey didn’t have microwaves back in the old country.
Hence, anything made in a microwave can’t be a kugel.
MenoParticipantYou want to marry a guy who’s already in kollel?
MenoParticipantIt’s not a kugel.
Also I think your directions are out of order. How do you flip a plate of olive oil?
MenoParticipantThey should make the women’s tallises (talleysim? tallisos?) extra slippery. That’ll teach ’em.
But kidding aside, it is really disgusting.
MenoParticipantCall more often, and louder.
MenoParticipantA lot of jobs that aren’t “majorly official” will still require you to have a high school diploma
MenoParticipantI’m just thinking now, maybe if the begged is made from silly putty and duct tape, the strings can also be made of silly putty and duct tape?
February 2, 2017 3:40 pm at 3:40 pm in reply to: apparently my niece is related to Meno's father #1213370MenoParticipant“How does the fish pronounce his name?”
“Ne? Mo.”
February 2, 2017 3:15 pm at 3:15 pm in reply to: apparently my niece is related to Meno's father #1213368MenoParticipantIt’s like:
“Me? No.”
