Whats your take on why people ( I mainly stress women here) are embarrassed to eat in public (and NOT FOR “TZNIUS” reasons)?
Ex: A party, vort, Shmorg, wedding etc…??
They should seek therapy.
A. You have not read it. You are lying. I wouldn’t trust you with a wooden nickel. Your entire presence in this forum is sheker.
B. Not Rabbi Miller again. Why must you sully his name?
Pac-Man alias Pac/man alias Pac man alias joseph:
You must be referring to the article where he clearly is making a limud zchus for people who don’t cover their hair, and not paskening that it is muttar.
You obviously never read the article. Neither did I, but I have at least heard about it other than from other virulent diatribes on the internet.
I’m pretty sure it is a machlokes in din.
So some hold it is m’din assur to wait until the morning. And some don’t.
I don’t drive a mustang. I drive a 98 civic lx with a cracked bumper and a shmuz sticker.
And you don’t drive a mustang, I’m gambling.
File a Section 1983 claim. At least it’ll annoy him and end up on his record that he had a claim filed, even if you don’t survive summary judgment.
But I think you would survive summary judgment since you are the witness, and if he did what you say he is liable, so it would need to go to a jury.
Just do it yourself so you don’t have to pay a lawyer, because you probably won’t win.
I would totally date a girl who drives a mustang.
I go for lunch in treif restaurants every day with my non-jewish and non-observant colleagues. I drink soda, they eat pork.
Today we went to chinese, and they ate sushi. It looked really good.
On friday we went to a gyros place. It is pronounced yeeroes.
Last tuesday we didn’t go.
Last monday we went to a different chinese place.
I can’t remember before then.
But Jimmy Jones has free ice cream. Isn’t that cool?
I wouldn’t wait.
If you are disciplining in public, it may be because they are embarrassing you.
If that is the case, then you are not allowed to do it.
The troll part is not that it doesn’t exist.
The troll part is that you called it similar to OTD to get us to comment, when there was zero relevance.
There was a case about in the 9th circuit. Brought by a frum guy from LA.
Sklar v. C.I.R. 282 F.3d 610
Of course:
You don’t usually post troll threads.
Hey! Mods, who changed my link?
I linked to the real story. It was in on page B7 on August 13, 1947.
Mazel tov!
I know of a situation where before a wedding, the chosson’s brother was carrying the ring, and walking around the hall, and wandered into the room where the kalla was doing pictures.
So he held out the ring to the kalla and jokingly asked, “do you want this?” She said yes, so he gave it to her.
The Rav was in the room, and paskened it was kiddushin, since he gave her a wedding ring, and she was wearing a wedding dress, in a wedding hall. So she needed a get.
The problem was that even he gives a get, she will be an issur eishes ach to her chosson.
So the chosson killed his brother and did yibum.
It was in the NY times: http://tinyurl.com/43lq3pc
Then we agree.
Itche:
You’re kidding right? Being open minded is nice and all, but when you take it to this, you’re crossing a line.
They try to pasul the first marriage, relying on numerous sfekos, and some more radical reshaim (sic) might advocate being mafkia the original kiddushin based on the fiction
I fixed it.
Yes, that is the beauty of the theory; women will never understand it no matter how many times we try to explain it.
The question is… should I turn this into a shidduch? is that untznius?
If you want to date her, ask her out. But that is unrelated the ride. Once you are dating, you can certainly give her rides.
Ask if she needs a seatbelt extender- that should do it.
Baltimore is too the south!
Avenge the patriotic gore,
that flecked the streets of Baltimore,
and be the battle queen of yore,
Maryland! My Maryland!
That is from the battle song of the Confederacy, and is still the Maryland state song. It is sung to the tune of “Oh Tannenbaum”, which you might know as “Oh xmas tree”.
Most girls buy their fiance a watch.

Thanks 80.
There is a statement that comes along with it. The word “stigma” bothered me.
But you are correct, I really was bothered by the other line which was not from you.
These often have less stigmas…
Unfortunately, there is a negative connotation with the hat due to how some people who wear it act.
Huh?
You have a negative view of people because they wear a hat?
My opinion is, that I don’t know if it is for everybody, but it is for more people than you think.
And if you are asking us, the answer is yes.
Try it. Nobody’s going to think less of you.
I actually did with a guy. I tried figuring out his screen name but couldn’t.
Was it WIY?
Well, it is nice. But I’d sure like to see someone go there on a date.
OdAmiChai:
The best moshol I ever heard for this is a father who throws his son out of the house. The son begs to come back. Finally the father says, “Ok, you can come back, but I’m not.”
SJS:
About metzitza bpeh, mohelim in my circles generally use a pipette. But they do it to protect themselves.
I don’t really know if there is any danger to metzitza bpeh. All I know is we did it for thousands of years, and it was certainly what G-d wanted us to be doing then. Perhaps now there are more diseases, or whatever. But I am leery about thinking of it as an arcane uncivilized practice.
charlie: I don’t know.
SJS: I also didn’t think it was anti-semitic, until I saw the campaign literature. I am posting a link. Mods: Click on the link, I think you should put this one up. http://pajamasmedia.com/tatler/2011/06/03/proof-that-s-f-s-circumcision-ban-is-anti-semitic/
The Capitol is a nice hotel.
zahavasdad:
I have a similar question. I want to go to work after I learn for 10 years, but my father wants me to only learn my whole life.
He says there is no mitzva to work, but there is a mitzva of kibud av. (Assume I will be supported somehow). What should I do?
We talked about this a couple of weeks ago here: http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/attempt-to-ban-bris-milah-in-san-francisco
Here is the post I wrote there:
If anyone wants to read about the legal issues, I found an article which seems to go through the issues pretty well.
See Sarah E. Waldeck, Using Male Circumcision to Understand Social Norms as Multipliers, 72 U. Cin. L. Rev. 455, 515 (2003)
The general rule is that “the Free Exercise Clause permits a law that burdens religion as long as the law is neutral, generally applicable, and is not passed to ban behavior solely because of its religious motivation.” The leading case on this is Oregon v. Smith, 494 U.S. 872 (1990).
However, the Court also said there in dicta that when another constitutional claim besides for free exercise is also implicated, then there is an even stricter level of review. That would likely apply here, because of the due process claim.
Also, there might be an issue here since it would practically make it impossible to live as a Jew or Moslem, like Pierce v. Society of Sisters, 268 U.S. 510 (1925), which struck down a law prohibiting parochial schools. Apparently, this makes it much harder, although I am not sure how.
This article concludes that a law requiring anesthesia would probably stand, but not a law banning bris altogether.
Yes. We ask for Hashem to return and also to rebuild.
But that doesn’t mean that rebuilding without returning is something to celebrate.
Ask yourself: Would you celebrate if the Turks had rebuilt it and not let us come? Why not? We ask for it to be rebuilt, where does it say anything about us returning.
Maybe we can’t just darshen the bracha.
Odamichai:
I am asking for G-d to return the shechina to Jerusalem, not for the buildings to be rebuilt.
