Sparkly,
That’s wonderful. Not sure how it was a response to anything I said though.
If someone has a username with a space in it, just clicking on their name won’t bring you to their profile page. You have to modify the address by replacing all the “%20” with “-” (without quotes)
LU,
Thank you for the compliment. I wasn’t insulted.
Sparkly,
That was your best post ever. I’m proud of you.
Happygirlygirl,
You took my joke and made it so much better. You have my respect.
absan,
I’ve gathered that from the few clues she’s given. I meant her future husband.
I’m pretty sure the entire store is kosher, but I would contact the certifying kashrus agency to find out rather than relying on what anyone here says. The stores should also have a kashrus certificate specifying what exactly is kosher
“whenever i try becoming more religious someone ALWAYS has to ruin it”
Other people, always ruining everything. Wouldn’t it be great if it were just you (and your husband) in this world?
It was supposed to be Nemo.
Yes it was a joke. Like I’ve said in the past, if you’re not sure, I’m probably joking
I hope that’s her being flexible and not changing her mind. If you change your mind every two weeks, who’s to say you won’t change your mind two weeks after you get married.
“Are you a Michigander?”
I assume that’s what they call people from Michigan.
If so, I’m not.
Weird right?
Probably just busy going
LU,
That sounds like a wonderful plan for Sparkly. I just feel like she should have a serious back up plan just in case the Rambam (or his modern day equivalent) isn’t available.
“Sometimes these things are posted as articles.”
When the “article” says [COMMUNICATED CONTENT] it means it’s sponsored (i.e. an ad, though your special “kosher” software won’t block it, because it looks just like an article)
“I’m sure this coin thing is just a scam, but generally speaking, are people saying that buying something and selling it for more is a scam? Do you realize how every store in the world works?”
I’m confused. You’re saying you’re sure it’s a scam and then going on to explain why you don’t think it’s a scam?
Sparkly,
I thought you had mentioned in another thread (probably a few weeks back), that you specifically wanted to marry a doctor because you love science and you need him to make tons of money to support you and your kids. I don’t think there are many kollel guys who are also doctors and/or make tons of money.
(I’m not sure where those posts were but some people here are really good at finding stuff)
My mother loved a certain movie about a certain fish that was missing (not sure if I’m allowed to mention movie titles here), but my father had never seen it, so he messed up at the bris and said Meno
Is everyone in the coffee room yeshivish? I mean, even MO people drink coffee sometimes
“However after Y’K and Tisha b’Ov on a Sunday & Assoro b’Teves on a Friday, how do you 1st drink water?”
I don’t understand why you can’t just have someone else drink the wine from kiddush/havdalah and you break your fast on water. Am I missing something?
They even make flashlight keychains if you wanna go all out.
Deja vu?
Does #amdramban mean only in the morning, or am I reading it wrong?
EDIT: Never mind. I figured it out.
Sparkly,
“so your basically saying that it is tznius to have long hair???”
I don’t know, is it?
You know the truth
I like leather too but it wears out too fast.
Sparkly,
You know the truth
“I don’t expect you to have one, your subtitle indicates that would be the case”
Just to be fair (not taking any sides on this matter), she had asked for her subtitle to be changed at one point.
Oh. Maybe you get bored because you don’t like it.
Isn’t Torah everything?
ctrl+F >> “boring” >> 1 found >> “why is organic chemistry boring?”
No one used the word “boring” in this thread other than you.
LU,
“good to know it’s possible to have a good first date!”
Oy that’s rough. I also had pretty bad luck until I met the right one. My first third date was also my last third date.
“but you have to know if she knows how to make chulent so you can decide if there should be a second date.”
That’s a good point. Maybe it would make sense to put it on the resume so as not to waste anyone’s time with even a first date. If someone is makpid on a picture then certainly they should be makpid on a chulent recipe.
I once hear that they are both the same place and it’s an all-you-can-eat buffet, except no one has elbows. The tzadikim help each other eat and enjoy it, while the reshoim starve because they aren’t willing to help each other.
I would think important things like chulent recipes would wait until the second or third date
“guys arent THAT different from girls!”
Huh?
“Are there still Jews living in Canarsie?”
Never mind, I just noticed that you said it was 27 years ago.
Restaurants are expensive. Can’t I just take her out for dinner?
I don’t even know any restaurants for sale.
I picked her up. We went to Starbucks. We talked. I drove her home. Probably said, “good night,” but I don’t remember.
Are there still Jews living in Canarsie?
Sparkly,
It seems you already have your whole support system worked out. Why are you asking advice from people on the internet?
Maybe you’ll find some good advice in this thread:
http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/needs-no-introduction
Sparkly,
Here’s an example:
1 day ago, apushatayid said:
“This is what I mean. You wrote “its because im trying to become more religious”. I think when you write religious you really mean observant. You want to do the right thing, but in many instances you find it difficult. May I introduce you to your yetser hara and yeser tov. Where things are black and white you find it easy to make a decision. Where things are gray the yester hara starts in with some very compelling arguments, sometimes it comes with very frum sounding arguments, he doesnt have a car, he needs to get to yeshiva (Im helping him learn, how great is that!).
Bottom line, whatever you do, do it with the guidance of a Rav, Mentor or whoever it is you get your halachic and hashkafic guidance from. Makes life a lot easier to navigate.”
You, Sparkly, responded:
“i already am religious thank G-d. i keep tznius, kosher, shabbos and lots of other stuff. just by listening to not jewish music, watching tv and talking to guys DOESNT make me not frum”
There are two problems with your response:
1. It may be exactly what you are thinking, but it doesn’t address anything apushatayid said.
2. You had originally asked for advice, and then rudely rejected the advice that apushatayid gave you, as if you had never asked for it.
Oy. (well also Mazel Tov)
A watch, a shas, a tallis with a silver atara…
Sparkly,
If I were him, I’d get that in writing.
(I hope my wife doesn’t read this stuff. I’m giving away all my secrets)
Sparkly,
How do you define “best”?
I love being an engineer! I think it is absolutely the best job!
(I just want to say that it’s taking a lot of restraint for me to avoid using all-caps. I always hate when people do it, but now I’m starting to understand it.)
P.S. I don’t do experiments. Experiments are for scientists.
I just want to add one more thing (my last comment was approved before I had a chance to edit it).
Sparkly,
I don’t mean to discourage you from asking questions, or asking for advice. Asking questions is a sign that you have a true interest in growth, which is an excellent thing that most people are lacking. I’m just saying you might want to take a look at the way you respond to people.
What’s that supposed to mean?
And by the way, I doubt being a pharmacist is as simple as you make it out to be. It doesn’t make sense that someone with such a simple job would make so much money. Supply and demand
Sparkly,
To be brutally honest, it’s very difficult to have a discussion with you. Your responses often don’t address the comment to which you are responding, you often blatantly contradict yourself from one post to the next, you ask for advice and then don’t welcome it when it’s given….
I could go on.
?
Me too. I think I’m gonna give up
LU,
Fantastic post.
Doesn’t need any additional caveats.
And the scam is back again. I feel like it’s my duty to bump this thread every time the ad comes back.
