“Anyone wanna open one with me?”
Sure. I’ve been a Dayan in many cases. We just need one more.
“The website for sukkah depot does not offer any fine print as to what they warranty,I could not find any link or tab to find additional information”
If you click the menu button (the three horizontal lines) on the right side of the website heading, and then click warranty from the drop-down menu, it will bring you to the terms of the warranty.
It does look like something weird is going on with their website though. Maybe Donald Trump hired Chinese hackers to hack into their website and change the terms of the warranty. I’ll paste the current text of the warranty below, just in case they are successful:
Basic warranty
Warranty for EASY LOCK sukkah
Sukkah Depot will repair or replace this product free of charge (with a new or rebuilt parts) within 10 years from the original date of purchase , in the event of defect occurring in materials or during normal usage.
Warranty for PANEL sukkah
Sukkah Depot offers a 5 year warranty with regards to manufacturer’s defects (i.e loose screws /bolts, loosened rubber bands, etc.) or defects occurring during normal use, or failures due to water exposure (i.e bubbling, panel decay, etc.)
Please note
Basic warranty covers failures occurring due to defects in material or workmanship which occur during normal, reasonable use. It does not cover damage which may occur as a result of misuse, abuse, mishandling and services by anyone other than Sukkah Depot, any use that is not in accordance with the product’s instructions or purpose, or damage that is attributable to unusual acts of G-D (i.e hurricanes, earthquake, external flooding ect.). Signed warranty certificate and original receipt must be presented for validation of warranty.
Warranty service can be obtained the first of Elul through the first of Tishrei. Please refer to the Telephone number listed below.
“If this interpretation is incorrect or the guy actually does have commitment issues then my accusers are guilty of Motzie Shem Ra.”
I doubt that’s true.
I don’t know the halachos very well, but I can imagine that if you just make up a story about someone, that’s motzi shem ra, even if by chance the story turns out to be true.
“And now all of a sudden he doesn’t have your number!!!”
How did you get that from what she wrote?
“FriendInFlatbush has it right without question.”
Seriously?
So it’s muttar.
This entire thread is based on a false premise.
Thank you Lilmod Ulelamaid
“So if the canvas ripped because of the poor workmanship of the poles, is that covered?”
If the poles aren’t under warranty, probably not. Just like if your window gets shattered because of the poor workmanship of the poles.
Aren’t there also issues of T’chum?
Gosh, can someone please tell me where it says it’s assur to throw food?
“i also googled, and found one that has 3 years on fabric and 10 years on poles.”
But the one I found said it’s the only Sukkah with a 10 year warranty.
I don’t even know how to pronounce “Noahide”. Is the H silent? It would make sense that it is silent, since it is in the name Noah, but that makes it more difficult to pronounce.
Maybe “Ben-Noach” would be better
I once got tinnitus (constant ringing in the ear) that lasted several days, after a Chanukah Chagiga in a Yeshiva. It was the worst when there was no background noise, such as when I was trying to go to sleep. That can seriously drive a person mad.
I just googled “sukkah 10 year warranty” and clicked on the first link that came up. I’m assuming that’s the one to which you’re referring. If you click the menu button on the right side of the website heading, and then click warranty, it will bring you to the terms of the warranty.
The terms seem pretty basic, but it doesn’t say anything about only covering poles or any other portion of the Sukkah
LU,
Maybe, but it just seems like a silly reason to say it’s assur. There are so many things that change a person’s heart rate. I think it should be irrelevant in deciding whether the music is mutar or not
Do people really ask if you’re dressed up for halloween?
That sounds very offensive, kind of like asking a woman if she’s pregnant.
I once found an English sefer lying around in a shul which discussed the problems with non-Jewish music. I was curious, so I flipped through it a bit.
One of the things it said was something along the lines of non-Jewish music being physically unhealthy because the beats used can change your heart rate.
I laughed.
I would just like to point out that no one in this thread has brought any source (let alone a good source) for the fact that there is something inherently wrong with throwing food.
I’m not taking sides, I’m just saying that it seems there is a lot of bashing based only on feelings rather than facts.
“if you are starting to lose sleep over someone you dont even know then its time to also close your account”
Unless you’re a Jew and you have good reason to believe that the other person is also a Jew.
Not saying I agree that people should start worrying, just saying that you have the wrong idea.
I’ve heard you aren’t supposed to throw bread (not necessarily assur). Never heard it regarding food in general.
Maybe we just teach our kids not to throw food because it’s bad manners.
Dunkin Donuts doesn’t prepare meat?
bais yaakov girl,
Sounds like a Chofetz Chaim boy would be great for you.
“You can eat that sort of diet and live for decades.”
You can smoke 2 packs a day and live for decades.
You can cross the street without ever looking both ways and live for decades.
You can play Russian Roulette every Monday and Thursday and live for decades.
“So is CC kind of like the Litvish Lubavitch?”
Uh oh. Here we go…
“What is The Final Countdown by Europe?”
I would sing it for you but the coffee room doesn’t support that (yet).
So I’ll just type it out for you (it’s just from memory so it may be a bit off):
Vrooom…Dada Daa Daa
Vrooom…Dada Da Da Daa
Vrooom…Dada Daa Daa
Vrooom…Dada Da Da Da Da Da
etc.
“That sounds like it could be a Hilchos L”H issue.”
Nice
In regards to Dr., Rabbi, and King, their titles don’t change because of their professions, it changes because of their degree/rabbinic ordainment/whatever makes someone a king.
With professor, I’m not sure that’s considered a title any more than screwdriver manufacturer.
“Almost every frum Simcha plays the Music from The Final Countdown by Europe.”
I don’t think I’ve ever heard The Final Countdown at a simcha.
Baker Street by Gerry Rafferty, however, is played my many simchas.
Maybe they fulfill the posuk by trying to stop smoking and trying to eat more healthy/exercise.
I wonder what they mean by “that”.
Have you ever asked?
Hey, what happened to CrookedHillary?
“And in an instant, so many of our brothers and sisters that count on food stamps, rent subsidies, EITC, medicaid, etc, will see their lifelines dry up”
Not really. The president can’t just do whatever he wants. More likely scenario is that he will try to implement his crazy ideas, and then he will get shot down by congress.
At least it will be entertaining
What’s a deri? I’ve never seen (or noticed) that word until this year.
“Mashaiach; Why are YOU here?”
That’s easy. He was sent on a mission from God to save all of us.
He happens to be doing a fantastic job.
“The problem is that over time the magic love falls off and they realize that they are the sole bread winner and that they need someone who will also financially support the family”
The real problem is when one day you want a guy who works and the next day you decide you want a guy who learns.
And then the next day you decide you can’t be yeshivish because apparently gothic people can’t be yeshivish.
“So I guess in your case it’s the Jewish Esrog sellers that make sure each year that esrogim. Are being planted by the millions etc… And not forgotten”
That’s exactly right.
The esrogim we buy are grown in Jewish orchards. They have to be, in order that we can ensure that they are not murkav. If we didn’t need esrogim for Sukkos, there would be no reason for these orchards to exist. And since esrogim aren’t really good for anything else (besides maybe smelling nice), they would probably just go extinct.
“someone who is gothic CANNOT be yeshivish”
Why not?
“do you know ANY other fruits that they don’t sell at the supermarkets cause their too exotic? i don’t”
No, and I’m sure you wouldn’t know anything about an esrog if it wasn’t required by the Torah. It likely wouldn’t even exist anymore.
“Siegelman’s cake”
Is that the long square one?
I thought it was called a Vort Cake.
I don’t think I had one at my Vort (in NY).
Was my Kiddushin chal?
“It doesn’t actually make any sense to sing it with Vechol Maaminim starting the verse!”
Why not?
The only issue seems to be that the lines aren’t paired up correctly, not that you’re starting with Vechol Maaminim
I’m guessing it’s not appropriate to put a mikveh in a succah, right?
A siddur is very useful. After that I would recommend a chumash.
Speed dating is when you date while you’re davening, so as not to waste any time.
Sparkly,
Seriously what is wrong with you?
Um… Rosh hashana was last week
“Also, the working people should take davening as seriously as do the learning people.”
Agreed
“If you learn you can come in 9, 9:10 , 9:30 or whatever. Saying you were late because of Davening is acceptable”
I understand that it has become acceptable, but I don’t think it should be.
Some people work for a living, others learn for a living. The learning people should take learning as seriously as the working people take working.
“frum regular davening takes 45 minutes”
What’s “regular”?
“Shul where people have to go to work go quicker than places where people learn afterwards and have more time.”
Why do people who learn have more time than people who work?
Lilmod,
I actually just watched it again (I hadn’t seen it in a while), and you may be right that it was intended to be a joke, but part of the reason it’s such a good joke is that it’s totally true. Either way, I think it does a good job getting the point across.
Sparkly,
Sounds like you’re going through something really rough. College is really stressful by itself, and even more so when you have other things going on with your personal life.
You had mentioned in another thread that you’re doing fine after a friend talked you through it, but it’s clear that you’re not doing fine.
I think you should try to get some professional help.
This question is probably unrelated, but is there any reason why someone would prefer those over the regular tablets?
