September 3, 2023 6:52 am at 6:52 am in reply to: Is there a Drug Problem in the “Frum World”? #2222280ParticipantParticipant
@avira where’s there 7-11 in Israel?
ParticipantParticipantwow, yeshiva guy, truly inspiring. tears in my eyes.
ParticipantParticipantDear nomesorah
“But once they were already ‘stolen’, then it no longer reflects the results of an election and it would not be a crime. But then the defense would have to prove that it was ‘stolen’ in the first place. ”
Why? Innocent until proven guilty. Onus is on prosecution.
ParticipantParticipant@sact5 what betrayal and sacrifice are you talking about?
ParticipantParticipant“Whatever you are smoking, I hope you are in a jurisdiction where it is legal.”
And why’s that? You have no problem smoking illegal substances.ParticipantParticipantGood thing you included a picture of a clock so we’ll all know what “time” means.
ParticipantParticipant“Jack and 2cents are correct.”
Hope you realize that Jack and 2scents are not saying the same thing. Jackk doesn’t give any dispensation for stealing back an election; 2scents forbids it only because the State already certified it. Which, from what I recall, is incorrect. I think Trump asked Brad to “find” the votes before it was certified. Again, I might be wrong.
Either way, if there is no way to overturn a stolen election, other than fighting it in court systems which all turn it down due to technical reasons, I got to sympathize with Trump here. Legal or not, I don’t know, but what else could rectify a wrong? I also don’t know what the big crime is in asking Brad to find votes–sounds legal. Whatever.ParticipantParticipantAs Tova pointed out, it’s terrible, as it teaches children to disobey school rules.
Besides that, the entire series culminates with the heroizing and whitewashing of a truly bad man, due to his incapability of getting over his ex-girlfriend. A sleaze bag and jerk, who punishes Gryffindorers but give Slytheriners a free pass, Snape was a DEATH EATER who never changed his hashkafos. Indeed, he continued calling Voldemort the Dark Lord. But he begrudgingly agreed to save Harry, and betray his beliefs, not because he caused the death of two people, but because one of those people (a married woman) was his love.

July 17, 2023 7:19 pm at 7:19 pm in reply to: YWN Coffee Room in 50 Years: A Trip up Memory Lane #2209071ParticipantParticipantThe Gigaltyic Interface of Space Aliens and UJM.
Started by: ZapJune 27, 2023 8:07 pm at 8:07 pm in reply to: It’s almost Rosh Chodesh Elul, does your daughter have a school yet?!? #2203624ParticipantParticipantTrue, it’s much easier to vent and criticize, make demands on all the existing schools, and get Rechnitz to publicly decry the situation, but I would have thought all the girls crying themselves to sleep would motivate some hustling.
June 26, 2023 9:18 pm at 9:18 pm in reply to: It’s almost Rosh Chodesh Elul, does your daughter have a school yet?!? #2203295ParticipantParticipantI’m not being caustic in any way, just mere curiosity:
This topic has been discussed and rehashed for at least 10 yrs already. Why haven’t the parent body of the rejected girls form their own school/s?
Again, merely curious. I’m sure there’s a reason. I just want to know what it is.ParticipantParticipanti guess you’re referring to crowns on shaatnez getz. Why is haman’s “single” and yeraushalyim’s “solitary?”
ParticipantParticipant“Zetruth, if you’re worried about posting too much here/being kind of addicted, here’s what I did with my original account and what I’ll probably do with this one:
Type some random gibberish down and then copy it. Go to change your password, and paste that random gibberish as your new password. You will no longer know your own password and will be locked out of your account forever.”
I have an easier method: Go to change your password, and type some random gibberish as your new password. You will no longer know your own password and will be locked out of your account forever.
ParticipantParticipantBtw how does one go about perfecting their love?
ParticipantParticipantI thought you’re referring to religious right and left. But coffee addict & zetruth made this political.
ParticipantParticipantyes! You are most definitely missing something. A few things.
ParticipantParticipant@Avira
1. We feed akum mipnei darchei sholom,and this story is an amazing example of why this is important.
yes but this wasn’t agav aniyei yisrael.2. Pikuach nefesh?
He could have just announced that the bread was poisoned.3. Great question! No idea. Could be that this way every single jew would definitely be saved.
As would be through my suggestion.April 27, 2023 6:22 pm at 6:22 pm in reply to: Joe Biden is not the 46th President of the United States of America. #2184976ParticipantParticipantArticle II, Section I, Clause 8 of the Constitution requires the President to be sworn in. It does not say that his Presidency is contingent on the oath. Hence, Atchison became President despite not having taken the oath.
“In 1880, Atchison wrote in a letter, “I never for a moment acted as President of the U.S.””
Acting as President certainly is not required to be the President. With your argument, you can say that Biden is also not the President.ParticipantParticipantThe Longest Pesach: R’ Yechezkel Landau was walking one day, when he noticed a nochri boy sitting and crying. He inquired, and the boy replied that every day he sells a basket of his uncle, the baker, ‘s bread but today it fell and he can’t sell it and his uncle will beat him mercilessly. R’ Landau gave him the amount of money he needed.
Years later, one Pesach, the boy–now a man–knocks on his door, and informs him that his uncle is plotting to kill all the Jews in the city. After Pesach every year, they all come to buy bread from him. He would poison the bread this year. R’ Landau must foil the plot, but without the uncle discovering the nephew gave him away.
On Acharon Shel Pesach, R’ Landau made an announcement in shul that there was a mistake in the calendar and that it was really the 7th day of Pesach. That night, or next morning, when everyone was observing Acharon Shel Pesach, he contacted the chief of police, who fed the bread to a dog, and found it to be poisoned. The baker was arrested, and R’ Landau announced that the calendars were right after all.1. Why was he not oveir lo sichaneim?
2. What heter was there to extend Pesach and cause all those brachos levatalos?
3.Even if there is a heter, would it have been so hard to concoct a different story, maybe that all the flour in the country was found to be owned by a Jewish heretic (and came in contact with water), and hence no one may eat it?ParticipantParticipant“Rav Ovadia permitted saying a “mi sheberach” for a ‘םומגקג Druze soldier and a hashkava for the Druze police officer killed in the Har Nof massacre”
Which “Rav Ovadia?” R’ Yosef?
Which “har nof massacre”? The one in which R’ Twersky zt”l and three others were murdered? (I don’t know of any others, sure hope there weren’t.)R” Ovadia Yosef was niftar a year before the Har Nof massacre.
April 25, 2023 2:47 pm at 2:47 pm in reply to: Joe Biden is not the 46th President of the United States of America. #2183969ParticipantParticipantI was wrong. My new research indicates that Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. is indeed, unfortunately, the 46th President of the United States, following

April 25, 2023 1:56 pm at 1:56 pm in reply to: Mass shootings, and non mass shootings, must stop. #2183960ParticipantParticipant@huju explain.
For self defense purposes–citizen and law enforcement alike–why is a stun gun (aka Taser) not sufficient?
April 25, 2023 1:55 pm at 1:55 pm in reply to: The official ASK Chat GPT ANYTHING thread!!! #2183959ParticipantParticipantYou didn’t address my first question.
April 16, 2023 2:00 pm at 2:00 pm in reply to: The official ASK Chat GPT ANYTHING thread!!! #2181326ParticipantParticipant1. Why have your comments on other threads not been posted?

March 31, 2023 9:01 am at 9:01 am in reply to: Should girls wait for older sisters to get married? #2179007ParticipantParticipant“Why would an ehrliche person reject Chazal…”
Indeed. An ehrliche person would not.@aaq always ask questions, but properly. Recall the difference between the hacham and the rasha.
ParticipantParticipantThere was nothing silly about my post; it’s a shame you’re too stupid to understand it.
March 29, 2023 4:49 pm at 4:49 pm in reply to: Should girls wait for older sisters to get married? #2178526ParticipantParticipantthese mods are seriously beyond screwed up. They’ll censor anyone on a whim, but no problem with Sicko’s constant, endless, chronic, disgusting bashing of all things Jewish.
March 28, 2023 4:51 pm at 4:51 pm in reply to: Arkansas Gov. Sanders signs law loosening child labor protections #2177927ParticipantParticipant“a federal office of gun violence prevention”
Thats actually comical.
We must prevent school shootings! Yeah, we must set up yet another government office to solve the crisis!ParticipantParticipantWhat in the world does that have to do with my post?
ParticipantParticipantWhat mi sheberach? The nusach is “avinu bashamayim tzur yisrael…”
ParticipantParticipantI’m astonished how woefully illiterate all these posters are. “Et tu” was said to Brutus, who was roman. Hence it cannot possibly, under any circumstances, be said to or about anyone who isn’t Roman.
ParticipantParticipant“Everyone has heard of Rav Noach Weinberg, Aish, and presumably his wife’s parallel work with baalos teshuvos.”
Not to mention Rebitzin Weinberg’s role in making Aish itself.
R’ Noach zt”l and Rebbetzin Weinberg zt”l were of the most influential gedolim of our times, and it is shocking that there has been no article about her.ParticipantParticipantomg i’m rolling. Thanks. what does sophistry mean?
ParticipantParticipantwhy would he imply something so patently false?
ParticipantParticipantSorry doesn’t cut it.
February 19, 2023 2:51 pm at 2:51 pm in reply to: An End to Shidduch Résumés by Rabbi Chananya Weissman #2167266ParticipantParticipantgee is he paid per word? I’m like at least a 1/3 of the way thru and all he’s saying in many, many paragraphs, is that resumes are a new innovation. Not a word so far about why resumes are so terrible.
BTW It happens to be that I found a Shidduch resume posted online 1870 years ago, but since then they seem to have fallen out of style. [I hope the point I’m making is clear enough. If it’s not, I’ll rephrase it as a question: How old is the internet?]
ParticipantParticipantWB Good to hear from you. I may be the only one who enjoys your threads, b
How much do I get to charge for providing you with rant material and basically saving your life?ParticipantParticipantThey need to bump their speed limits up—the highest it gets, on a freeway, is 110 kmh. An average city street is 40 kmh.
Some streets should certainly have such limits–the two-lane curvy roads with space for one car and maybe a pedestrian–but many streets could be higher.
And the ridiculous speed bumps every 3 meters, which breaks the wheels unless you’re driving half the speed limit……ParticipantParticipantAcquaintance of mine dozed the whole time lawyers were talking. Plus he did some thing else that I can’t say. He was the first juror excused.
ParticipantParticipantzap slipped up on this thread and wrote something serious.
January 10, 2023 9:38 pm at 9:38 pm in reply to: why is everyone arrested called a suspect? #2155402ParticipantParticipantReally? Someone shoots someone and police nab him. Headlines say “Armed man arrested for killing 12-year-old girl”. They would be in danger of libel? There’s no indication of guilt in such a statement. Maybe it’s just a flat-out practice so they don’t slip up? [for example, accidentally writing “Armed man arrested for murder of 12-year old girl”, the word ‘murder’ already determining that a crime has been committed, (albeit not directly accusing the ‘suspect’)]
It seems such a clumsy way of phrasing it. “Suspect arrested in killing of girl”, after surveillance videos clearly show it was him [directed @ujm. The individual’s identity can be known without the court’s conviction.] and the sole question is his guilt. It would make much more sense to write “Killer arrested,” and yes, we know that he faces a jury to determine his guilt.
ParticipantParticipantAnd….McCarthy won.
ParticipantParticipantthe biggest piece of ugh.
had to go and contaminate the republican party. (His win is a loss for the republicans, not a win. Attn dovrosenbaum.)
hopefully “republican” will soon also be found to be a lie.ParticipantParticipantWhat is a chia pet?
ParticipantParticipantum toshma.
chasm sofer predated the avnei nezer.ParticipantParticipantWow akuperma I’ve never heard anyone so passionate about anything before. but read what I wrote before responding. I wasn’t god forbid blaspheming democracy, just suggesting a more economic method.
ParticipantParticipantcorrect answer is that there are “2 independents who caucus with the Democrats,” whatever that means exactly.
