popa_bar_abbaParticipant
Oomis: they’re already on the internet. It doesn’t get more public than that.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantDear Wondering wife,
I suppose first we need to know if you are in fact a dolt, or perhaps even a dolty twit. If yes, then you should hit him over the head with your rolling pin, in the hopes of making him also a dolt.
If you are not, then why did he call you a dolt? He must be a dolt! If so, you should hit that dolt right over his dolty head with a rolling pin!
popa_bar_abbaParticipantBetter question is what makes jewish music music
popa_bar_abbaParticipantCan you start an NGO in africa in that time?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantThe secular and DL are withered into irrelevancy. The enemies have massed and it is all hands on deck to preserve or restore Jewish sovereignty. Would they adopt the militaristic elements of Chanuka as did the early hiloni Zionists, or other options and avenues.
That isn’t half as interesting or likely as my scenario:
The Israeli government consisting of Yesh Atid, the DL parties, and the left wing parties pass laws mandating that all children must attend courses at the gymnasium.
Do the chareidim rise up in arms as did our forebears?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantMore likely the fight would be against the chilonim, to be precise.
Recall that the chashmonaim’s fight was against the yevanim, and also the misyavnim.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantA nice religious ornament to hang around her neck? Mit ah yoshkeh.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantGo snowboarding in Alaska? You could wait tables at the resort and use that to pay for your hostel stay and some tuna fish.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantDiscover single malt.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantSo, they aren’t all different either.
The problem is definitional. I generally don’t define the ones I agree with as feminist. I define them as normal people. It’s the ideologies I don’t agree with that I call feminist.
I once met a lady who told me she was feminist. So I asked, in what way? She says, like I believe in equal pay for women. I said, so does everyone–that’s just normal. (FTR: there is equal pay)
popa_bar_abbaParticipantWhat makes mexican music mexican?
What makes russian music russian?
What makes arabic music arabic?
There are certain musical structures that are distintive in Jewish music. Not sure what the quuestion was.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantCharlie, I think the criticism is the larger than average disparity between when he is on and off teleprompter, compared to other presidents.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantVaccines often hurt at the site of the vaccination. That’s normal. Anything more is a (very unusual) bad reaction.
That is not true. It is very normal to also feel run down after the flu shot. I don’t know why you are making stuff up.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantSuppose you are hiring a babysitter for your baby. And you decide on someone who is good enough. And someone else comes and says I’m also good enough, and how come you don’t hire me instead and it isn’t fair.
Do you answer: well, I already decided?
Do you answer: because she was better?
Do you answer: I found her first?
No. You don’t answer any of those. You don’t answer at all, because the question makes no sense. The question makes no sense because the person asking why you didn’t hire her has nothing to do with you or your hiring decision. Maybe like a lav baal devarim didi ot theory. When you hire a babysitter, the only relevant decision is taking care of your baby, and no part of the decision is making things good or fair to the pool of potential hirees.
Maybe this doesn’t apply to hiring waiters in your restaraunt, or maybe it does. But it sure applies to babysitters and knesseteers.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantWell yes, if they figured they wanted to hire a non-Jew for whatever reason.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantYes.
No.
Def no!
Yes, but only allowed to operate the refridgerator.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantWhy should you have a right to run for Senate? What does Senate have to do with you?
You have a right to basic liberties that are essential. Like living, breathing, free speech, etc. But those things are for you.
It’s like if you’d say you want to have a right to be hired by me. I don’t hire people to help them–I do it to help me. How could you possibly have a claim?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantDY: Firstly, that isn’t at all comparable because that would be the government making a rule.
But more importantly, yes, I still say the same thing. What’s it to you to complain that you can’t be in the senate? What right do you have to be in the Senate to begin with?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantThis whole discussion is based on a mistake. Legislators don’t work for themselves–they work for us!
Being a legislator isn’t about fair–its about people thinking you’ll do a good job at it.
You don’t have a right to be a legislator, because nobody has such a right, because the position is not created for the good of the legislator. Its created for the good of the people.
So this whole idea of “it isn’t fair that we can’t be legislators” is all wrong. It isn’t supposed to be fair. The point isn’t for you. Nobody cares who wants to be a legislator. We only care, and only should care, about who WE want to be legislators.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantI highly recommend Park Slope Midwives. They have an office in BP near BY. They deliver at Methodist, which is unquestionably the best hospital in Brooklyn.
But, if you’re happy with this Dr., then probly no reason to switch.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantHow do you know they are all purely alegorical? You privy to some information that we aren’t?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantSasha, no. That is MO machmir. That is the very definition of mo machmir.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantMaybe they can bargain another party for the next seat on their list after the one they think they’ll win without the chareidi female rebel vote
popa_bar_abbaParticipantNot true. I only argue with men.
I bicker with women.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantYes, Charlie, despite Avi Weiss’s best efforts, there are still enough frum Jews that we can afford to divide them into this many subcategories.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantMaybe they’re taking a tip from Leah and Dina, who were ??????? and bode them no good.
I seem to recall it bode Leah another son.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantBecause not everyone gets to be in the knesset. Only like one in a thousand.
V’isha achas b’chol eleh lo matzasi.
QED
popa_bar_abbaParticipantBecause cholov stam is a davar sh’yesh lo matirim, so it isn’t battul.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantYeah, cute interpretation, but seems more apropo for purim thank chanuka.
America is edom?
Is Iran threatening saudi?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantSo, actually what does it say? I mean, I see your interpretation, but also I’m curious what it says.
December 9, 2014 9:07 pm at 9:07 pm in reply to: Is Being Right More Important than getting along? #1053070popa_bar_abbaParticipantSo it looks as though cayenne pepper on the cash register has the most votes.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantPopa owns 62% of K-cup through a series of shell companies and nominees that include Yeshivaworld.com. Ever wonder why this is called the coffee room?
December 9, 2014 5:03 pm at 5:03 pm in reply to: Is Being Right More Important than getting along? #1053065popa_bar_abbaParticipantBetter idea.
Take out Dan’s garbage. But hide it in the stockroom.
Take out your own garbage at end of your shift, and bring Dan’s garbage back from stockroom and put back in garbage can.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantOf course I am!
popa_bar_abbaParticipantI just passed a spilled coffee all over the floor in the mall. I’ll just keep walking and pretend it wasn’t me. Like shidduchim.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantJust think about the herbivores you know and the carnivores you know.
Cows, rabbits, buffalo, pigs, sheep.
Cheetahs, wolves, tigers, lions.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantthey dont get burped in time which is painful when your stomach is the size of a marble and they’re more likely to end up with fluid in the ears which presents many problems.
How does it get from their stomach to their ears again?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantHe isn’t a chareidi. He is a chazer mareh telafav.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantFYI: epidurals are awesome. Also pizza is awesome. I def recommend picking up pizza on the way to the hospital in case you get hungry during labor. You can even ask the nurse to grab you some ice chips and pretend they’re for your wife.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantOk, but should someone who represents himself as an orthodox rabbi (even though his yeshiva basically disowned him) support laws that are against the Torah, or laws that are consistent with the torah?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantSorry golfer, you don’t get to choose who is allowed to have opinions. You can feel free to disagree, but you can’t claim a monopoly on opinions by choosing an arbitrary cut off point beyond which nobody is allowed to have an opinion.
It’s like saying men can’t have opinions on whether epidurals are a good idea.
It’s like saying women can’t have opinions on whether I should watch the football game, because they don’t know how much men like watching football.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantI must be misreading but you seem awfully concerned about possible infringments of international law, to a greater extent than your concern for halacha. That seems upside down.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantYes, such hard decisions. Good thing we have a Torah that tells us what to do.
Lipman would do well to remember that.
As for Cyprus, they can easily solve that by not recognizing those marriages, or by deporting anyone who does that. That would do the trick.
December 8, 2014 4:20 pm at 4:20 pm in reply to: Is Being Right More Important than getting along? #1053054popa_bar_abbaParticipantTwo options, in my view.
1. Also stop throwing out the trash.
2. Throw it out for Dan, just to get along. And secretly sprinkle cayenne pepper on the cash register so that when he touches his eyes or nose he’ll get it……
popa_bar_abbaParticipantMy rule has always been: You’re old enough to drink when you’re old enough to hold the bottle.
So no, I would never prop up the bottle for a baby.
(Notice how beer bottles are easier to hold than whiskey bottles–this rule works!)
popa_bar_abbaParticipantThe only viciousness I see here is from the people attacking Rabbi Lipman.
Well, that’s because Lipman hasn’t commented on the thread.
lol
Sure, if you close your eyes all you’ll see is what you’re inventing inside your head.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantDaasTorah:Honestly, I have no idea what you are accusing Rabbi Lipman of.
Yes, that has been the theme of this thread.
You spent a page and a half of posts not knowing what comments of Rabbi Lipman we were talking about.
You spent the next half a page not understanding them.
Now you don’t understand us. That isn’t very surprising.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantAnyway, he didn’t say he’s going to forcibly convert them. He wants to make it easier for them to convert. But not if they have no interest in Judaism.
Ok, so let’s even assume they are as interested in becoming frum as the general chiloni population?
So exactly how is he going to solve anything? You’ll still have almost as many of the hundreds of thousands in exactly the same situation.
Better idea is to impose criminal penalties on being a relationship with them.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantPAA: It follows naturally, since these hundreds of thousands obviously have no interest in becoming frum. Hence they aren’t frum.
popa_bar_abbaParticipant, it’s a lack of responsibility, and it’s literally yielding to – what I view as – a tremendous internal threat to the future of the state of Israel.”
chazir mareh telafav. He should just take off his yarlmuke and be honest with people.
