Kind of depends.
If it is something I hold is ???? ?? ????, then I would not eat it in your house.
If it is something I am just machmir on, and it will mean I can’t eat in your house, I would eat it.
Lets first focus on the things we can actually cut.
Number one in my view is weddings.
As AZ likes to point out, nobody is even getting married and we are spending so much on weddings.
But really, it is absurd that you need to spend a full year’s work on a single night.
I propose we simply stop. No half measures. No limiting to 4 piece band.
Meal in your house, and dancing in the shul. That’s it.
Well, I think I would still change my battery myself again.
I wouldn’t do an oil change, because you don’t really save money, even if you don’t ruin a shirt.
I know a story where the sister was one year younger than the brother; he was 24, she was 23.
She asked if she could date, and he said yes.
So she dated several times and then was ready to get engaged.
She asked if she could get engaged, and he said no.
His excuse was that he didn’t like the guy she was dating and thought it wasn’t a good idea.
Now, he is married with several children, while she is still single.
Iv heard many stories about drunk frum guys that make me shiver
Most of the stories I hear make me shiker.
s2021: what do you mean by research?
Because she took the seat telling the mother that she would move, intending that the mother would be too embarrassed to make a stink and throw out an old lady.
And she was right, the mother didn’t have the guts to throw her out.
She didn’t even make any pretense of right.
She just used force to accomplish her goals, using her weakness to make sure that the other party wouldn’t use force in return.
You just try pulling that on me.
I would have picked her up and thrown her down a staircase.
I don’t think so.
If you give in to bullies, they just bully you further and more.
The only way to respond is with force.
If this older woman was just being mean,or insensitive, then I would agree that you should just give in. But she is being purposely manipulative and using her rank to do so.
So you throw the rank in her face.
At least tell us which thread was so obscenely gross.
This is not about wrongs making a right.
This is not about revenge.
It is about living normally and not allowing people to bully you.
I disagree.
If my middos were no better, I would be going around bullying people.
Since I don’t, and I only don’t allow others to bully me, my middos are better.
I don’t believe that good middos means you let people walk all over you.
popa i think you are being a little more than a bit over the top.
Well, I don’t. I think that we should not let bullies use their weaknesses to bully us with.
She can’t use her disability as a way to control people and not allow them to respond.
I think you should have picked up the back of the chair and dumped her off.
She was being a bully and relying on her age to pull it off. There is no reason why you need to play along with it.
yogibooboo:
It is a problem if it is goyim also.
Why does it only bother you if it is yidden?
Avraham Avinu came from a non-Frum family, too. His Father didn’t send him to Yeshiva, either. His “Mechutan and Daughter-in-Law’s brother (Our Uncle and Great Grandfather) were both crooks.
I prefer not to extrapolate things like this from the Avos, but if you must, you should also notice that his one son became a rasha and is the father of the Arabs, another grandson was a rasha and his family became amalek.
So, if we are going the yichus track here, I am not sure the results were too great.
There are two issues people often discuss regarding same sex marriage.
The first issue is the constitutional issue, and is meaningless to most people who don’t know the 14th Amendment from their left nostril.
The second issue is whether we want to restrict marriage to opposite sex people.
Now, looking at the historic definition of marriage really speaks more to the constitutional issue, and is discussed at length in the briefs for the CA Prop 8 case.
We should more be asking the second issue, which is why as society we don’t want same sex marriage.
For me, the answer is that I think homosexual acts are immoral, and I don’t want to see society endorsing it as a positive thing.
I think it is worse to endorse it by recognizing institutions based on it, than to simply not criminalize it.
And the funniest part was in was towards the back, so I didn’t even notice it and wore it through morning seder until someone pointed out that there was a 3 or 4 inch hole in my shirt.
I wonder if the material was just brittle, and actually disappeared while I was wearing it.
I prefer my bologna on rye with mustard and a pickle.
I like.
I didn’t realize the shirt was ruined until several weeks later, when a large part of it disappeared. I made the connection because the pocket had the receipt from the battery.
I cleaned out my trunk by pulling out the carpet, and pouring baking soda and seltzer on it. Then I put it in the shower to wash off the baking soda. Then I put it in the dryer.
I sold it over craigslist to some hispanic kid who was planning to use it in a ’86 Cammarro. I asked him if he was sure it was the right one. He said he was sure it wasn’t.

I assume you meant a ?

Seems to say it is muttar.
Says a G-d fearing woman or wife of talmid chacham shouldn’t because maybe he’ll come after her some other time.
He seems more concerned about the yichud issue than the tznius issue.
Is poppa saying its a MUST to carry?
I didn’t post anything on this whole thread.
According to NYC law, Title 45 Section 187, any student is allowed to ride the city bus for free, and don’t need to show ID, as long as they are going for a “qualified school purpose”.
I don’t know what a “qualified school purpose” is, but maybe these kids were doing that.
Is it really so rare? Why should it be?
Why do you think it is rare?
I can’t think of any, but then I can’t think of any word that has a ? and a ? either.
Or a million other combination.
If you would say that the two letter are next to each other, then I could think about it.
I changed my battery myself. Below is a breakdown of the costs.
New battery from wal mart- $75
wrench- $2
shirt which was ruined by acid while carrying old battery- $15
backpack ruined by acid while old battery was sitting in trunk- $50
total- $142
I also sold the old one for $20 since it still had some life.
net total- $122
price to have battery changed by mechanic- $100??
Net savings- negative $22
CK: can you link the teshuva on hebrewbooks please. or put the citation?
I don’t know anything about the halacha, but it seems highly bizarre to me to assume that a man is not looking at the women because he is “too busy”.
If anything, he is not doing his job properly.
Also, there is no argument of it being necessary because of the danger, since you should just not go swimming.
Oh, of course he is not paying attention to all the girls wearing bathing suits.
Only the pretty ones.
This is so funny. I wonder how anyone believes this.
But on that topic, I once met a friend of mine who said he was working for a goyish day camp.
He said he had a heter to go swimming even though the female counselors were swimming because he is involved in his job.
I asked him whether he found that it was true, that he was too busy to look at them.
He “didn’t understand” the question.
So, why would you want to swim in front of guys, knowing exactly what is going on?
I don’t know about the doctor, but I really don’t know why a man would be allowed to watch women swimming just because he is a lifeguard.
If you need a man to watch, then don’t go swimming.
Are there no issurim when you are working? What if you do photography for the movie industry? Is that ok?
Sacrilege: I WANT RUBY JUICE!
If you think dating is hard now, just try dating with a kid.
Why would a male lifeguard be ok?
Are you allowed to nurse on a plane in front of a male pilot just because he is flying the plane and keeping you from dying?
Or maybe they wanted to be funny.
Maybe people said the same thing more than once because they wrote it before the previous ones were approved.
mewho:
I was wondering who would be the one to say that.
Bas Yisroel: His point, while it may seem offensive, is not totally wrong.
If you don’t want to learn tanach and meforshim, there is really no reason why you need to. You can have a very spiritually fulfilling life with a close connection to Hashem, without ever opening a chumash.
So, if you want to learn how, then pursue it. But if you are finding it a burden (which is not implied in your post, I am just mentioning it), then you can forget the whole thing as soon as you graduate high school. Which should be in about a year, judging by your screen name.
5 and a half.
It is in ???????
?????? ?? ?? ??????? ?????? ????
How do I remind him what it felt like?????
It depends why you are reminding him.
If it is because you feel bad for him, then tell him that.
But if it is because you don’t like him drinking, I don’t think you should mention that he doesn’t like being sick.
I think it is important to be level with people when trying to convince them to do something. If you really don’t like it yourself, you shouldn’t pretend that you are motivated only by concern for him. You should tell him it bothers you.
Otherwise, you will be annoyed at him for drinking, when you have not even told him it bothers you.
Sounding your horn at any time in NYC makes you eligible for a $350 fine. I propose strict enforcement of this law; this will enable the city to restore the child care vouchers that have been cut from the budget.
I don’t know about that. If society thinks that we should subsidize child care, then we should ask who we want to be doing the subsidizing.
I don’t really see a connection between honking your horn and being able to subsidize child care.
Kind of like when states think that lottery players are uniquely situated to be subsidizing education. I don’t understand that either.
(Yes, I am expounding on TBT’s post.)
Don’t tell me what to do.
