I keep the chumra of treating milk as fleishig, since it is produced by the cow.
I still play Candyland.
The box says “Ages 3+”. It doesn’t give an upper limit.
I hold it with a fork. It’s hard to dunk a raisin-sized piece of watermelon without it slipping out of your hand.
If you use a pickle, you wouldn’t be dipping it. So then when the kid asks why we dip twice, you’ll say “What are you talking about? We only dip once.” and he’ll feel stupid, and it’s not nice to make someone feel stupid, especially a kid, and especially on pesach.
There was no shidduch crisis then.
Sure there was, there was just no Coffee Room then, so nobody knew about the shidduch crisis.
I’m willing to bet @popa_bar_abba has a few.
Though I personally think it’s rude to get up and say a D’var Torah at a kiddush. Just let people eat their chulent and speak loshon hora in peace.
Agav, there are those who are choshed that a potatoe is not hoadama and therefore are careful not to use potato.
What bracha do they make on it?
In a nutshell, when you lease a car you are paying for peace of mind. Sure, if you buy a used car you might end up ahead as far as dollars and cents, but you don’t get that peace of mind.
Peace of mind is worth money, and it’s something that you pay for more often than you may think. If you buy any type of insurance policy (auto, life, homeowner’s, etc.) you’re also just paying for peace of mind.
“And you can only drive for a certain amount of miles 🙄”
So you figure how many miles you’ll need. It’s not that hard.
Even if you own a car, the mileage isn’t free. Every mile you drive costs you money in some form. It’s just a matter of when you’ll pay for it.
I don’t understand the whole kuntz in leasing
You spend all this money on a car that you probably won’t own in 3 years
And it isn’t even like an apartment because you have to pay to fix the car if something gets damaged but normal wear and tear on an apartment is understandable
Also the insurance is more expensive on a leased car
If you buy a car and drive it for 3 years, it will be worth much less than what you bought it for, and then you end up having to pay for repairs. Whether you buy or lease, you end up paying for the depreciation.
Also, insurance is not more expensive for a leased car – it’s more expensive for a new car. Doesn’t matter whether you lease or buy.
Ooh, that IS a good question.
Bread into Cholent!
Do I have to wash?
Whether they intend to or not, a certification is an advertisement of its product. End of story.
I assume you mean endorsement, but either way it’s not really true.
Of course, it could be that Big Gay is someone’s name
Yeah, someone who has trouble picking colors so he just uses all of them.
Most automakers disregard dents up to the size of a quarter and scratches up to the size of a credit card. I recently returned a car with a NYC-style scratched up bumper and I wasn’t charged at all.
I’m not your bro, boss.
Are you here for a psak, or are you here to hock it out?
If it’s the former, this not the place for it. If it’s the latter, you’re not doing a very good job.
ZionGate.
Yes I’m allowed, or not allowed?
Also, it’s not yours until you claim it. If you don’t claim it by a certain deadline, you forfeit it.
If someone drops a million dollars in my mailbox on shabbos, am I not allowed to keep it?
mazal tov !
You won money on Shabbos.Thank you! IY’H by you!
Make your own.
Just take any regular hamantashen recipe and replace the gluten with nothing.
I just print all my stuff at Walgreens
The other one is a nickel.
The mitzvah is not the drinking, and it is ignorant to proclaim it as such. The mitzvah is simcha, as stated clearly in the Megillah.
Who says they are both the same mitzvah?
en realidad soy queso
If you’re complaining that it’s not fair that other people get more reward than you because they have fewer/easier nisyonos, that’s silly and simply not true.

Rebbetzingoldennosepicker,
My kasha is, if MITZVOS TZRICHOS KAVANA, how does he and she have the proper kavana to be yotzeh the mitzva of ad dlo yada when asleep?
Even if you go to sleep, the maiseh mitzvah is still the drinking. Ad d’lo yoda is the shiur to be m’kayem the mitzvah. Going to sleep is just a heiche timtzi [insert thumb-swoop here] to reach that shiur (albeit not in the most mehudardike way). Therefore you only need kavanah for the drinking itself, not the sleeping.
Good kashe though.
Sounds like a no-brainer to me that yiddish is no different than French.
Have you ever heard anyone say, “Pardon my Yiddish”?
Using a red napkin would actually be a problem of tzovea
Saying “Not to spoil the fun” doesn’t absolve you of responsibility for spoiling the fun.
And, how do you know I’m not Joseph?
Joseph would never step foot in a goyishe store like Walmart.
The “Great Value” (walmart private label) milk does not have a hechsher on it.
According to the OU Product Search, Great Value Milk is OU-certified (when bearing the OU symbol). You can even see a picture of it on the Walmart website with an OU-D.
And also you’re not Joseph.
The cholov Yisroel is on the milking of the cow, the hechsher is on everything involving the plant, workers, tubing, vats, cleansers etc.
I would imagine most of that is regulated by the FDA as well. There are plenty foods that are acceptable without a hechsher, according to the “mainstream” kashrus organizations.
Meno: Please clarify what point you’re trying to convey. Are you asserting that if milk that has no hechshor whatsoever is being sold in the U.S., people who use Cholov Stam would have no problem buying it and drinking it and actually do so?
Some would and some wouldn’t, just like some people wouldn’t drink bottled water without a hechsher.
But my point was that your claim that people who rely on R’ Moshe’s hetter still wouldn’t drink milk without any hechsher is simply not true. It just happens to be that most milk has a hechsher anyway.
So why don’t user of the Cholov Stam heter use any Cholov Stam milk or products that has no hechsher?
Joseph, I challenge you to find milk in a supermarket in the NY Metro area without a hechsher.
Hurry it’s gonna start snowing soon.
The truth is that the immigrants should be afraid of the health risks from us!
Maybe instead of a wall we should just put up signs saying “Warning! Anti-Vaxxers Live Here!”
Here’s a fun fact: when they routinely check your receipt as you leave Costco (and I suspect the same is true in other stores), they aren’t checking to make sure you didn’t steal stuff. They’re checking to make sure the cashiers rang stuff up correctly.
It’s true. The internet said so.
I purchased a life tenancy, so no I can’t take it home. Anyone using it without my permission is not a tenant as you suppose (erroneously) but a SQUATTER subject to immediate eviction.
Where is this shul? Sounds like a nice place
cause they probably didnt know what penguins were in those days
That’s why it was such a clever theme
How do you know that Mordechai and Esther didn’t send penguin-themed shalach manos?
It gets you a shul that can pay its bills.
klugeryid,
what i meant is
say im selling shoes
there are 100 people looking to buy shoes today in my area
so if i sell to all of them no other shoe store in my area sells any today.
so i won this round by beating out the competitors
for that opportunity its fair to tax meBy that logic, if there were two stores and each sold 50 pairs, neither one should be taxed.
When I engage in commerce in taking money away from everyone else.
This is false
When many people ask about “efficiency” they are using the term less as an thermal engineering metric but rather in a layman’s sense as to which type of space heater will make you feel warmer most quickly and at least cost
Right, so explain to me how 2 space heaters that use the same amount of electrical energy can put different amounts of heat into a room.
How can a space heater be inefficient?
Chicken soup salad
Artificial sweeteners are gross. Real sweet or no sweet at all.
If it were fun, you wouldn’t get paid for it
What’s that supposed to mean?
In most peoples minds when a sign reads 3 for 5, means” at least ” 3
Really?
Honestly, that thought has never even crossed my mind before I read your comment.
