Its a moshol!
All of the politicians in eretz yisroel are holding onto a get to divorce us chas v’sholom from the torah, and each one says he is the one who brought it from medinas hayam.
Retarded Fires Devolve Only Slowly
Just as a quick update: The person in the story did get married, and had triplets the next year, and then twins 10 months later.
The Russians took it.
I only know what the R stands for.
They will have more money.
She hugged arafat’s wife in response to her allegation that the jews were poisoning palestinian water.
lol rebyidd
eek & PAA: I seem to recall one of the classical mussar seforim brings that medrash in a context implying it is referring to destroying the world by doing aveiros.
OP: I also care about the environment. It just isn’t the only thing I care about, and that is the disagreement I have with the environmentalists.
From a kosherly slaughtered cow. Or goat. Or sheep.
Maybe miles are shorter in magic.
Maybe all the acceleration is in the last second.
Maybe they can only sustain the acceleration for a short time like a fraction of a second?
That isn’t how you type when you’re drunk. more like

lol
It’s ironic but the ideology that today opposes Torah shebealpeh for girls opposed 120 years agobthe creation of Bais Yaacov or any formal Jewish education for girls
It’s more ironic that you think you are aligned with the people who started beis yaakov, while if they were aligned with you, they would have done what you are advocating.
Checkmate.

The Goq/PAA: You stole half of that from a Purim Pashkevil put up in KBY last year, which said that all the Chareidim have to hear Zachor from a Hesder guy because Chareidim are Patur from the army.
Nu, I made the joke two years ago re machatzis hashekel http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/do-chareidim-have-to
Let’s just say, its more dangerous than MBP.
At one time smallpox was. Or hunger. Or plague. Or wolves.
Now that we’ve conquered all of those, people mostly die of old age. And we complain about it and call it heart disease.
A friend of mine was once smoking marijuana and then someone told him its assur, and he didn’t even stop.
That’s what marijuana does to you–makes you not even care if something is assur.
So how can such a thing be muttar?
Some old versions of the chofetz chaim were printed by his almanah and state that anyone else who prints it is oiver on almanah v’yasom lo s’anun
Ok, here’s a tax related question.
If an accountant posts on the internet that they will answer anyone’s tax questions posted in a thread, does that create a client relationship?
Because the gimmick was good enough to get you in the door once.
Then you were like: that’s an expensive deli sandwich, and kind of cheap on the deli, and not the best deli either, and I’ll go to shnitzy now.
Here’s this:
How many CR poster weddings have you been to?
Ah! Reminds me!
When I was in yeshiva, there was an altah bochur I was friends with. He used to always propose on the first date.
He figured: if she says no–no harm, no foul. If she says yes–she’s crazy and he’d better know that so he can break up with her.
One day I would like to take oomis on a date (my wife will join). We’ll go to all the popular lounges in Manhattan on a Thursday night and scope out all the dates, and then if she still has this opinion I’ll respect it.
Half day. The other half day you pretend you aren’t going to college.
I thought this would be a thread asking to compare using electronic sources to going down to the courthouse and reading it in paper.
Is there a name for this series of posts?
He isn’t the satmar rebbe. Rav Aaron is, you racist!
I once knew a family, who had two cars: one for him to drive to work, and one for her to drive to work.
Then they got really really rich, and both stopped working, and got rid of one of their cars because they take helicopters everywhere instead.
One day they met Akuperma. He made fun of them for being so poor they only have one car.
Americans only know one language because we have made our culture and language so dominant that there is little need to know any other language anymore. And where there is need, we pay someone else to know it for us.
Why not just buy the car, and then you don’t have to play around with these naarishe gimicks and phone apples.
As Mr. Perma noted, treif chains don’t do well in North America.
The reason is this: The value of chain branding is that people can expect the same product as lat time. Kosher restaurants all have their own reputation anyway, so nothing is gained from the branding. After that, there’s just no reason to tie yourself down to the Mcdonalds way of preparing and wrapping a burger and their menu, and pricing, etc, etc.
The earth is getting warmer whether you believe it or not.
I don’t. They are “manually adjusting” the records in order to reach the conclusion that there is warming, based on their theories. It’s a full on scam, and anyone who says otherwise is lying or an idiot.

govt programs are not “matanos”. Matanos are given willingly. So I don’t think that applies.
I don’t think they are quite gezeila either, since you aren’t the one stealing it.
Perhaps it is like lokeiach min haganav?
I think I’ll bookmark this thread. Never know when something like this could come in handy.
Ok, here is the fare breakdown in NYC:
Yellow cab:
2.50 base.
2.50/mile and 50 cents per minute in traffic.
80 cents – 1.30 surcharges based on time of day
15-20% tip.
Uber:
3.00 base
2.15/mile and 40 cents per minute in traffic
no surcharges, and no tip.
Charlie, I don’t think we’ll be needing statistical analysis for this one.
Uber is not really used to save money over a car service. A trip from flatbush to BP that cost me 15$ on car service will cost me 17-18 on Uber.
From which intersection to which intersection? Let’s price it right now on their website.
It’s right there in Uber’s marketing materials. Not exactly something to have opinions about.
I also forgot to mention that the tip is included in the Uber pricing, so you really need to add however much you usually tip to compare. And also add the dirty comments about how you are a cheap jew and don’t tip enough.
When I have checked Uber’s prices, they have always been much higher than the local livery cab services. And my neighborhood is full of livery cabs.
How many times did you check?
You’re a statistician–what is the confidence interval on your results? How would you balance that against the easy ability to check the prices online and see that the base price is nominally cheaper.
Yes. Except when there is high demand, in which case they tell you how much extra it will cost. Since it is usually like half as much as a taxi, I take Uber unless it is more than like 1.75x the base rate.
Well, for half the price of a taxi or car service, you can have a clean car and a polite driver and a shorter wait time.
So you just have to consider whether you’d rather pay more for a smelly dirty car with a driver who will talk on his phone and play strange radio stations loudly and make you wait longer and then be mad at you if you take a minute to come outside.
It’s a big decision.
