8: the number of days that Israelis could not eat chometz this year
A sibling post on the cr? Not as far as I know. I do have a spouse who posts in the cr. But all the posters here are my holy brothers.
Blah blah blah
Where does this thing of ‘dipping the pinky finger’ come from? I learnt, and most haggadas say, ‘remove some wine with the finger’ meaning scoop a little wine out with your finger. Where does this dipping thing, which I have seen many people do, come from?
Wolf: Another example of your sterling middos yet again. A lot of people would have gone back for their kittel. To sit there uncomfortably without it so as not to inconvenience others is an amazing thing in my opinion. (I vote we get Artscroll to bring out a book on this guy!)
Bump! Come on, who has not gotten round to say it yet? Not long left until the end of Nissan! Say it now or immediately after pesach otherwise you may miss it!
How did the last pasuk of leining go by you today? Mine was very noisy… Lo sivashel gidi bachalev imo…
Funnily enough, yesterday ended with the exact same pasuk yet somehow it was not the same choral response. Maybe after hearing the pasuk yesterday they were more ready for it today…
BaalHa… (are we allowed to say the rest of your name of Pesach?) Hi, Gut Moed! I understood what you said until makkas bichoros. From then, when Paroh wanted them to leave immediately but they voluntarily stayed until morning, they knew this time it was for real. So what DID klal yisrael do all night from when they were commanded by Paroh to leave until the morning?
Tzippi/bpt thanx for the cute story
mod 42 thanx for ruminating and regurgitating this thread! ☺
ps is anyone in touch with eclipse? Where is she up to? We’d love an update and even a hello from her. Can it be arranged?
How many newspapers have closed since internet news has become popular? Not too many.
limd is correct. Editor what is the update on the many gedolim and other people that you have reported as being sick? Reb Chaim Kanievski, Rav Tuvia Weiss, Reb Mattisyahu, Skulener Rebbe, Viznitzer Rebbetzin, Rabbi Belsky among other people. Who can I take off my tehillim list?
Sometimes you have no choice. My grandmother was made in Germany
A ka’eyleh Jew lol. In our shul the baal koreh pauses just before ka’eyleh, like lihavdil by haman in the megilla, to give everyone their two seconds of enjoyment before continuing being motzi the olam in the peace and quiet
The CR is an internet asifa. I attend regularly
Within the actual beis haknesses itself is ok and not a bizayon as we see from the clothes of the kohen gadol that dragged along the floor of the beis hamikdash. The floor is holy. However in other parts of the shul building it is a lack of kavod
Yw fan: you ask a very good and fundamental question. (yes tcg I did wonder where this thread would lead when I opened it). Probably the reason is along the lines that bread can either be allowed to rise or not be allowed to rise. Its either leavened or unleavened, either chametz or matza. We must commemorate the manner in which hashem brought us out of mitzraim in haste, where we show that yeshuas hashem is always kheref ayin, and we are instructed to do this by remembering their bread which was not given time to rise before they were evicted from mitzraim.
My 2 long time questions are: 1. The pasuk says they were driven out of mitzraim, implying as if they were woken up unexpectedly in the night and told to leave immediately. But we know this was not the case. Paroh asked them to leave by chatzos halayla immediately after makkas bichoros when he came looking for Moshe but Moshe said no we will not leave in the middle of the night but in the day and they waited until morning before leaving. So why did they not begin baking their bread on time; they chose their time of leaving. They were not suddenly chased out?
Question 2. The pasuk says matza zu sheanu ochlim al shum mah… Because the dough of our fathers did not have time to become leavened before hashem revealed himself to them and redeemed them. QUESTION: Had they not been ‘chased out’ and had their dough been allowed to rise, would we still have a mitzvas matzo and issur chametz? Is this the entire and only reason for chametz and matzo? Would we not have had this mitzva anyway had they been allowed to leave without pressure?
(I have a mehalach on these questions but post them to see what the learned coffeeroom can come up with).
shein the real question from this thread is can the CR coexist with the beis hamikdash
wherever you live or in whatever location you are in now, please post blossom tree locations here whenever you come across them, NEIGHBORHOOD/TOWN/CITY FOLLOWED BY STREET, lihanos bahem bnei adam.
I would love to join a new friendly cr. Although most times the unkind things posted here are in jest or tongue in cheek, on some occasions they most certainly are not. I like to come here to relax, not to feel upset at how a fellow poster is being treated or spoken to, whichever side of that particular argument I sit on. The written word is extremely powerful and can be very hurtful. We all know posters so hurt here that they no longer visit. Some comments are intended to elicit responses; do not use (or abuse) other posters so that you can begin or continue a certain line of thought.
My golden rule, which is basic common sense, is that it depends to whom you are writing. Some people have thick skin can take a joke. Others cannot. Is it someone with whom you have had friendly battles with in the past who will immediately know you are smiling as you post. Or will they feel hurt.
It is too much to expect the mods to be able to study each post to determine whether the contents are light hearted or not. We must moderate our own posts and read each one thru before clicking submit on any contentious post.
Remember: write, read then either post… or dont!
Wishing everyone a relaxing, happy and healthy yomtov full of much nachas and brochos, and remember that by kicking sinas chinam and onaas dvarim we will be rebuilding the coffeeroom and rebuilding the holy beis hamikdash, speedily in our days! Amen.
Thank you Goq. Baruch haba! Wow, I thought I was going potty for a while. I felt invisible, unable to get my point across. I was becoming Moody. Almost able to charter my own air transport at will. Until I fell off and pensievely came Dumbling down to reality. To continue my hard Pesach work, huffling and puffing, scrubbing, cleaning, slytherin along the floor, as I recall my zeida telling us “ve clear ze room vall to vall de more de better!’. Until I began to clear my final chamber of secrets: my last remaining kitchen closet. Then I can finally take out my matzo, wine and firey goblets and stop feeling like a stupid muggle. Maskim? D’acor? Are we agrid on that? Then happy pesach to you all.
But nobody seems to have realized that what I wrote was also on purpose. I wrote that if they do not know how to spell then send them to Hogwarts to teach them to spell better. Anybody?
ZK You seem not to have noticed on your dial aswell as numbers there are also letters. So for example for ‘hello’ you insert your finger in the 4 slot and rotate it for the h, then in the 3 slot for the e. Next you do the 5 twice for the two l’s, finally you put a band aid on your blister and insert another finger into the 6 slot for the o. (this is assuming your rotary phone has predictive text. Should it not and you must rotate each letter up to 3 times, the consequences do not bear thinking about!)
Here is a good starting point: Are you male/female? Is the person you are trying to contact male/female? Vihamayvin yavin…
Obvious to those that realize it, not to those to whom it has not occurred yet. And even during the year make sure the feed does not contain meat and milk
Why dont high school girls no how to spell
Send them all to Hogwarts. That’s what I’d do.
No you dont need to get rid of it. It can for sure be sold lechol hadayos. Chometz that has been changed into something else thru an action even if it is still edible can al pi halacha even be used on pesach. But for play dough this is not advisable as the kids will get it under their fingernails etc
Derech achilla there is no problem of gebrocks so no issues of matza in the mouth getting wet etc.
How can anyone who is machmir for gebrocks go to a hotel for pesach? Have you any idea of the kashrus problems that inevitably arise in practically every hotel, even with the best hechsher and mashgiach? I have heard stories from mashgichim even for non pesach hotels that made me feel ill.
And where does this double chumra originate from to not eat from a keili that has had gebrocked food in? Ad kidei kach?
On a thread last week I told the story of the 1st Belzer Rebbe who did not eat gebrocks while his mother did. They ate from the same plate of soup with his mother eating the kneidlach and he leaving them for her!
Without rhyme or reason? Dont be a maniac!
which allows the flame to be adjusted as needed on Yom Tov
The flame may only be adjusted up on Yom Tov, not down.
ANOTHER bump? You had better stop soon. There cant be anything left in your closet by now. Next time you look there will probably only be your skeletons left lol. (Though knowing goq it would not stop him welcoming them to the coffeeroom… !)
Thank you to Goq for starting yet another good thread
Thank you to Goq for BUMPING yet another good thread. (That’s a more accurate random praise).
Actually this thread I do not remember at all, even though I posted on it last year.
So this is the famous thread when mbachur (who WAS married despite the name, but not yet addicted to coffee or troll-murder) got his subtitle. Interesting!
My favorite songs at the moment without a doubt:
Slow – shweky’s cry no more
Fast – Avraham Fried’s

I saw it! I saw it!
It was a UFS. Not UPS. Not UFO. It was a UFS. Unidentified Flying Scissors. And it had pulled itself together nicely and was not snapping at anything but was still as sharp as ever. It retained its cutting edge and the ability to get to the point quickly. Lets be blunt about it… We’re happy she is happy, and are happy that she has now threatened to visit us here once a week.
Welcome back ARWSF!
Y. W. Editor: what a great idea. Of course the threads will all need checking for chometz before we can allow them into our homes. Please do this before every yomtov or special time eg purim, 3 weeks etc etc. Thanks
There is more chance of a television falling on your head if you own one
You are more likely to be hit on the head by a television if your house is under the flight path of FedEx freight planes. Your own television is more likely to fall on your feet than your head (unless you are in the habit of crawling on the floor or have a screen high up on the wall). So I would dispute your theory.
Ok cind here I go. My theory was…
April Fool
42/editor/other mods
The way around this, to stop people impersonating other posters, could be to give every poster a subtitle. Doesnt matter what. Because that cannot be copied.
Can anyone improve on this?
Well every year in my home the afikomin goes mishing
lol. Yesh in our houshe alsho we get a little drunk at sheder night. Or were you refering to those who take their teeth out for matzo… ☺
shlump dont be a shnooky shapiro! That link is incomplete as it doesnt have anybody’s name at the end of it! Copy and paste the link then type the screenname at the end of it and replace any spaces in the name with –
