popa_bar_abbaParticipant
You are all evil. Worse than the guy who was chazzan and singing so much and I said they should throw esrogim at him.
You all pretend to care about people, but all you care about is your own warped morals.
You all are exactly why everybody hates the medical establishment like opthamologists AND also hates the medical “opinions establishment”.
And you argue like a bunch of chickens over an egg. Who cares whose egg it is? Once it hatches it’ll walk away anyway.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantPareve Cheese Cake recipe:
1. Take pareve ice cream cake.
2. Add lemon juice.
3. That’s all. It’s just acidic pareve ice cream.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantOy, that IS a horror story, oomis.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantDoctor has associative identity disorder, and sometimes thinks he’s an axe murderer (and is)
popa_bar_abbaParticipantDoctor falls asleep in the on call room, and wakes up in surgery, sleepwalking.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantIn his mouth?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantRosh hashana mussaf def. Not sure i can help you on the seder.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantAnyone care to venture an explanation how he manages so well?
All his teeth already fell out?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantYou should have cut slits in the handles of her shopping bags so that they ripped halfway home.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantThey were pretending to do appendectomies, and really stealing their kidneys
popa_bar_abbaParticipantFunny this was bumped today. I actually tried to go to the same pizza shop today, and it was closed.
v’chaval al d’avdin
popa_bar_abbaParticipantYou’re making that same mistake again, assuming that if you haven’t seen something, it must not exist.
If chazal say there was such an avodah zarah, I believe them.
I consider chazal at least as reliable a historical source as the modern day archaeologists and historians.

It actually doesn’t.
May 21, 2015 1:21 am at 1:21 am in reply to: 'Halachic Dinner" – What do you think about it? #1083236popa_bar_abbaParticipantSuppose you go trolling, and catch someone troller blading. Can you eat him?
May 21, 2015 1:21 am at 1:21 am in reply to: 'Halachic Dinner" – What do you think about it? #1083235popa_bar_abbaParticipantSuppose you go fishing and you catch a catfish with scales. Can you eat it?
Suppose you go hunting and catch a pig that chews its cud, can you eat it?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantTrue, there is no amount one has to buy, but waiters and waitresses make next to nothing. Just ordering soda, while allowed, doesn’t seem like a nice thing to do
And I think that you just like to think of yeshivish people as not nice, so you find things they do and decide it isn’t nice.
I think that isn’t nice.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantThe last time I was at a lounge, between the two of us we got one soda and the rest was water. After 3+ hours my bill was $5. A waiter or waitress is tiped for their service, a drink is all the same to carry regardless of whats in the cup. We use percentages as a metric but it shouldn’t be a hard and fsst rule. I tipped the waitstaff for their wonderful attentiveness with $15 or $20. It’s just rude otherwise and very possibly can be a chillul hashem.
So if the two of you had also ordered one $2000 drink, you would have tipped $15 or $20?
Obviously not. Because percentage is more than a metric.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantThe dinner last night did not have the pledge of allegiance, nor hatikva. But it did have tehillim, and boy did it have speeches.
There was almost exclusively separate seating but I sat with my wife anyway at a misfit table. And ate food I’d brought from the shmorg during the speeches, and then left and talked outside. I was sitting in the middle of room, so it wasn’t very inconspicuous when I left.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantBump
popa_bar_abbaParticipantEveryone has always known the earth was roughly “round”. It isn’t hard to figure out since if it were flat the horizon wouldn’t disappear.
I’m not sure what you mean by “disappear”. But that makes no sense in any event. The “horizon” we “see” is actually a refraction of the light that is bent by the atmosphere, so you can actually see beyond the earth’s curve.
Which actually proves that the earth is flat. But is ridiculous because you can’t bring proofs from it without understanding how it works.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantWhere did you end up?
Here.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantYou will
It never happened to me.
But if you say it happened to you, I’ll believe it.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantMatan: Didn’t I like already respond to that argument?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantAnd since she’s about 25 years older than him it really helps with the shidduch crisis!
He must be a tzaddik like Rus!
And a week before shevuous too!
popa_bar_abbaParticipantGooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
popa_bar_abbaParticipantHe had a baby?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantPopa, that’s not fair. I can say that about anything or anyone.
Not really.
This is more like I call Tom Brady a cheater, and rew posts “PBA: When did Brady cheat?”
You can dispute if you think Brady cheated, but you can’t just put on your blank face.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantGo to a business office and look around.
The men are dressed just as tznius as you might like, according to Rav Falk’s biggest chumros.
The women not so much.
So you see, there is a reason for the focus.
May 15, 2015 3:38 am at 3:38 am in reply to: question for democrats (and i guess anyone else that wants to chime in) #1145033popa_bar_abbaParticipantI like burgers.
popa_bar_abbaParticipant69 million Americans voted to give him a job.
Yes, but the question at hand is whether someone would hire him to do a job in a situation where the employer would pay him, instead of him paying the employer using the money of the people who didn’t hire him.
See how that’s different?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantPBA: When did obama break the law and talk his way out of it?
Apparently it worked on you.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantWho came up with the idea of single couples going to a hotel lobby. To the rest of the world it looks incredibly improper.
I don’t believe you that it looks remotely improper. I think you say that because you like to criticize.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantIt depends what the job is.
If I was running a criminal organization and the job was to break the law and talk his way out of it, I would definitely hire him.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantWhen I turned bas mitzva, my parents took me to ChapaNosh, or maybe it was Chaval al Hazman. I had never eaten in anything fancier than a pizza shop, and was very impressed.
They talked to me seriously about how I have to keep mitzvos now and gave me a present.
It was very nice and IYH I hope to do the same for my daughters.
Well for my daughters, I would definitely take them to a pizza shop. I am not aware of anywhere better to eat than a pizza shop. Probably mendelsohns. There used to be a silly place that made square pizza, but I think its gone.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantFor my bas mitzva, we had a pinata that the sleeves were too short, and we beat off the arms until the sleeves were long enough, and then the candy came out.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantWomen aren’t jewish. the whole question makes no sense.
May 14, 2015 2:20 am at 2:20 am in reply to: Would I be Jewish ? Some orthodox say yes some no #1077309popa_bar_abbaParticipantColumbian Jew: What do you want the answer to be?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantcoffee: I think oyoyoyoy is referring to 147’s post.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantfrightening and ignorant analogy, popa.
You are the one who tried to prove that something is good based on your ability to be emotionally affected by hartzig songs.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantI am not sure I agree that boys want thin pretty girls more than their mothers.
I’m sure.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantyom yerushalayim is this coming sunday, may 17. right between lag b’omer and shavuot. don’t knock it, before you experience it. stand by the kosel for five minutes, or walk the streets hearing hartzig songs and you will be changed.
You should also try christmas eve in the vatican. Just listening to the hartzig songs will really change you. Or even just listen to Silent Night now on youtube.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantKosher or treif?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantBouef and Bun in crown heights
popa_bar_abbaParticipantTitle of thread should be: Everyone tell your favorite myth on the reason for streimels, with a certainty that could only exist by someone who didn’t care if it was correct.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantWhy does the fact that they were previously acquainted affect the story? In fact, when I first read the story I assumed that R’ Gustman knew who R’ Aharon was. And the theory about R” Aharon Kotler seems like grasping at straws. First of all who was the milkman? Second of all, there is no particular reason why a story about R’ Aharon Kotler talking about a milkman who knew Shas would somehow evolve into R’ Aharon Lichtenstein volunteering as a milkman, and even more so with the whole rest of the story.
Good points.
Considering it again, I actually think the story makes more sense in the world where they did know one another.
It explains how Rav Aharon got involved in the discussion. I don’t imagine that the time it takes to drop off milk is long enough to overhear their entire question, and more, don’t you think Rav Gustman and his chavrusah would have said “hello how do you do” to the milkman instead of ignoring him and continuing their conversation? But if Rav Gustman knew Rav Aharon, he would have deliberately called him over and brought him into the conversation.
And then the comment that “the milkmen here are bekiim” would have been in jest, since he would have known that Rav Aharon wasn’t an ordinary milkman.
So if that’s the only kasha, I’m still believing the story.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantMaybe Rav Aharon Kotler met Rav Lichtenstein and was calling him the milkman because he could milk kedusha from the outside world?
May 5, 2015 2:56 am at 2:56 am in reply to: Inappropriate Opposite Gender Interactions in the Workplace #1075616popa_bar_abbaParticipantDon’t shower for weeks at a time.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantI knew a story with someone who broke off a shidduch after googling and finding out he was already married.
Idiots never considered there may be two people named yosef shmuel schwartz.
May 4, 2015 11:10 pm at 11:10 pm in reply to: Should the wishes of racist parents that I not date their child be respected? #1076287popa_bar_abbaParticipantEven if/though the parents are wrong, both of you should consider if you want to be in a marriage her parents will resent. You might consider holding yourself out publically as a couple and seeing if they come around on it.
I’ve seen people who sadly stop talking to their parents over their choice of spouse. That’s messed up. But I wonder if they would have done it had they known the result.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantNone of the famous stories are true. What do you think the popa’s of the chofetz chaim’s generation used to do for kicks?
