LU,
That’s funny, they tell the husbands not to do too much housework when they first get married.
(I’m just kidding)
Happygirl,
I agree with absan. Your optimism and positive attitude is truly inspiring.
“132,000 foot pounds of force.”
Energy
“Also i learn a lot more than you do since your a girl and most girls dont learn as much as i do. i learn a LOT for a girl.”
Great logic.
You can’t make this stuff up…
Are you a fire truck?
Is it a Sefer Torah?
“teachers work HARD and make no money. pharmacists fill up pill bottles and talk about medicine all day long and get paid lots of money. which is a better job?”
I would hate to fill up pill bottles and talk about medicine all day long. I would go crazy. Sounds like a terrible job.
Person1,
Hmm. I had a friend once who was a person. Maybe it was you
Why is it gross if I want to dye my hair? It’s not like I’m using any nasty chemicals, I’m using tomato juice, and my wife said it’s ok.
Health,
I was in the middle of an exam, but I didn’t see your answer until after I finished. I just wrote “only if Hashem wants it to”.
Don’t give flowers before you get engaged, because you’re gonna have to give flowers at the actual engagement, and if you’ve already given her flowers before, you will have to give her a bigger bouquet at the engagement. Don’t set the bar too high too early
“Actually, if tzedaka is that important to you, maybe you should davka marry a poor guy so you can help him out with all the money you make as a pharmacist”
Nice. I like that
I got this…
Is it Chulent?
Right, so you don’t agree. Don’t say you agree with someone if you don’t
Sparkly,
You just said you agree with CTLAWYER, but you also said it’s not tznius for the guy to give gifts. So you don’t agree with CTLAWYER.
Is it Hashem?
Oh ok
“i agree. but also i dont like getting gifts from guys. its not tznius.”
So in other words, you don’t agree
Just looked up freeze spray. I can think of so many good uses for this. How come I haven’t seen this earlier?
Seriously, who is this guy?
Mods please change the title of the thread to:
“How to become more religious (in case I ever decide I want to)”
Ok then, unlikely we can save this one now, but…
Is it a person?
Engineer is only my profession. I am a clown
LU,
What you’re saying is true. The strategy for this game is to start with general questions, then keep getting more specific until you focus into the correct answer. In numerical methods this method called a Binary Guessing Algorithm (I think).
By starting with questions too specific, you’re basically wasting questions.
I was joking. I’m usually joking. I’m a clown, that’s what I do. If I’m ever not joking, it will be very clear that I’m not joking.
Who was that guy?
Sparkly,
Also pharmacists. You can kill people.
“No you aren’t. You wrote that you were asked to do hagbah.”
Well it depends how you define “child”
Can it be a person? (That’s a question about the rules of the game, doesn’t count towards the 20)
Sparkly,
You keep sending conflicting messages. You started another thread asking for advice on how to be more religious. Yet when apushatayid just tried to give you some advice in order to help you, you responded in a way that implies you are content with your level of religiousness, and that you don’t need his advice.
Don’t ask for advice if you can’t take it. It’s disrespectful.
Avi K,
Read the thread. Sparkly mentioned specific things she is struggling with
I can’t say whether or not you get schar, but I do know that wanting to want is a huge step.
I once had a friend who was OTD (the real kind, not the coffee room kind). One time we were sitting on a curb on shabbos, he was smoking a cigarette, and he was pretty intoxicated so he was being really honest.
So he says to me, “I’m sitting here smoking this cigarette on Shabbos, and I really want it to bother me, but it doesn’t.”
That guy is a huge Talmid Chochom now.
I miss college.
As stressful as it was, the worst thing that could happen if you mess up was that you would fail a class and get set back a semester or two, and possibly not get into the graduate school you were hoping for.
The risks in the real world are much bigger. If you mess up in the real world, you can cost your company a half a million dollars, lose your job, lose your license, get people killed, etc.
The real world is very scary
Hey what happened to my question – is it sparkly?
If you want you can count it as only a half question, because I was half joking
Sparkly,
If you’re making tons of money as a pharmacist (who are usually the breadwinners, as you say), why is it so important for your husband to be making money?
Sparkly,
I have a smartphone. I think some people in the coffee room had said that having a smartphone means you’re OTD
What’s freeze spray?
So if he was talking about something, but he thought he was talking about something else, then it doesn’t matter what he thought he was talking about? I mean, when you respond to someone, shouldn’t you respond to THEM, not just the words that they said?
Should younger kids be motivated to learn on there own time? Is it not enough what they do in school?
LU,
I wear a pretty small Yarmulka (not tiny) but my father wears a huge one.
(4 times the area, which means only twice the diameter)
And I was just saying OTD according to some of the definitions that have been popping up around the coffee room. It was a joke. Most of the things I say are just jokes.
Aww LU, I was just about to call my wife to ask her. I was so excited…
Health is talking about guys who have started dating but haven’t found anyone yet because they are too choosey.
Just FYI, it’s very possible that Health is talking about guys in general, not specifically the guys that you know.
Sparkly,
Then what will happen if he’s in kollel?
Also won’t you be making tons of money as a pharmacist?
Really? If she lets I can dye my blonde hair red? Ooh I’m excited
Sparkly,
Use a headset? Or speakerphone if you don’t mind the guy hearing the whole conversation.
Also I don’t think the fact that your mother knows him makes any difference. The advice is still good.
Sparkly,
I think Health’s point was that guys aren’t waiting because they want to wait, they’re waiting because they haven’t found anyone in which they’re interested yet.
I have blonde hair and I want to dye it red. Will tomato juice work?
“k9 doesnt really slow things down/”
I was thinking the same thing. Especially if you have a computer specifically for photo editing and the like, I would imagine it is particularly fast.
My father wears a yarmulka which is about 4 times the size of mine.
I’m so curious to hear what she wants to discuss. I miss school.
