I think I missed something here in the time I was gone.
Mods, is there a way to take away “member” from under my screen name? It is totally superfluous! If I’m posting here, obviously I’m a member.
@live right – I’ll send some guys over to you! How about a “druggie with wild eyes”. Sounds like something you would be interested in? (That was quoted verbatim from someone who gave me info on a boy)
But in all seriousness, make the most of your single days! They won’t last forever and will be over sooner or later. I hope sooner 😉
I can sorta sympathize, except that the suggestions I’m getting are from people that know me! And I’m like, if you know me why are you suggesting him???? It hurts. A lot. As does a lot of other things in this world. But hey! That’s what makes us stronger so I’m working on trying to make the most of it…
Geek squad here. I’m quiet cuz I’m currently busy hacking the white house’s server. Who do you think got in to Obama’s twitter link shortener? I’m busy doing important things…
Because if they would raffle off a tablet or the latest iPhone, the rabbanim would go all out against it. A couple of organizations have taken upon themselves a tech-free auction. Now with their prize selection so limited, they must think of creative ideas of things people would want. Which baal simcha wouldn’t want to win this???
I guess the rabbanim will have to pick and chose their battles…
Woah woah woah!! Who’s taking the credit here??? But I like your idea Little Froggie. What type of flowers do you think eclipse likes? Mods, any idea?
Scratch that, it’s Yehuda! and it’s called Perek Shira.
Take a look around you
A symphony of sound
Creation in its rhythm
The melody astounds
Each creature plays its part
Music from their hearts
Shining stars up in the heavens
Waves upon the seas
Roaring lions in the jungle
Fruit blossoms in the trees
The wilderness, the desert sand
An eagle in its flight
They rhapsodize Perek Shira
CHORUS
Generations of song
Sing loud sing strong
Each one feels the same
As they call out His name
Thank You Hashem as I sing You my song
Chasdei Hashem Leolam Ashira
To orchestrate each word
We raise our voice in song
Ailecha Hashem Nafshi Ekra
Now with deep anticipation
We await that final day
When all of us will come together
Vesham Nashir Shir Chadash
Singing the same song
Shiru Lanu Mi-Shir Tziyon
CHORUS
Generations of song
Sing loud sing strong
Each one feels the same
As they call out His name
Thank You Hashem as I sing You my song
Chasdei Hashem Leolam Ashira
Your gift of song, each melody
Each note, each tune and every harmony
Just sing out loud
Allow your voice to fly
Generations of song
Sing loud sing strong
Each one feels the same
As they call out His name
Thank You Hashem as we sing You our song
Chasdei Hashem Leolam Ashira
I believe it’s a Yossi Green song. I just tried googling the lyrics I remember but I’m not coming up with anything…
Keep a log on what you eat. Biggest deterrent ever, you really won’t find yourself cheating. I have used myfitnesspal dot com. They have tons of food in their data base so they keep track of your calories, fats, sugars… And my best part is that at the end of the day you can see how much you will weigh in 5 weeks if “if everyday was like today” in regard to what and how much you ate.
It is totally free, and they have apps for both iPhone and Androids.
BUMP!
I wasn’t here the first or second round of this party. But I’ll gladly make a third round. Anyone wanna join me?
Eclipse, my bracha to you is all the good in the world and everything else everyone posted above! And from reading old posts, you definitely deserve it!!! And I hope that you and your chosson will be as happy together until 120 as you are now 🙂
The mods decided to delete my post. Not sure what they have against me. Especially since I NEVER harass them.
Regarding your life story – I get the main gist but without many details its not much of a story. I did mention in my previous post – which 1 question I would ask before asking if it was you. It’s really that simple. Scary, no?
As for your personality – Many people portray different sides of themselves in different situations. You may appear one way online and a different way in real life. So if you claim to only have one side to yourself, I believe I know what it is.
You mean to say…. WOW! Surprised I never thought of that on my own!
I wouldn’t ask straight out “are you ____?” I would probably say “do you post in the YWNCR?”. That way I wouldn’t embarrass myself or the person in question.
“Anything with raisins in it would be 10 times better with chocolate chips instead. For example: A box of raisins.”
<em? shidduchim are like “where’s waldo?”, we now he’s out there, but he’s hard to find…
And there are so many lookalikes tof waldo that it gets soooo confusing.
And my absolute worst is: Let’s go take a boodie kinderlach….
An indoor beach replete with sand, surf, and sunshine.
@shopping – If I met you on the street, no I wouldn’t know it’s you. But if I struck up a random convo with you, with a few questions I can probably determine your identity.
@syag – Your talking to me or shopping613?
Try this sequence:
windows key and +
windows key and –
ctrl and alt and i
@syag – mind explaining? And in reference to what? Your comment is really cryptic.
Nah, don’t be scared. I feel I know you too. And I wasn’t stalking you. It’s just that you spend a lot of time here. And according to the threads you’ve posted in the past, anyone could pick up a lot about you and who you are.
@keepitcoming – I think when he’s here everyone will know, don’t think there will be a doubt in anyone’s mind. And there are so many midrashim that will freak you out. Try reading the end of Sefer Yeshezkel where it talks about milchemes gog umagog.
Regarding packing clothing, I always said that I’ll have to wear my school uniform to greet Mashiach as it was the most (only?) modest clothing I had. Now that I’m out of uniform I think I have something big to work on before he comes…Ouch.
Huh? If it was a pareve comment, why did you take offense?
It really depends on the situation and who it was that embarrassed you. If it was and will be a one time occurrence, take it as something you can potentially grow from, however hard that may be. However, if it is a common occurrence from a specific person, please help him/her!
Reading through old posts, I wish I was around in those days. A lot of smart people who had equally smart things to say.
I would sit there dumbfounded and numb for a good while. And then I would probably cry from my emotions.
Harass the mods…
For all those in the dark – Instagram is all about posting pictures, tagging people with messages regarding the picture, and using hashtags to describe how you feel.
The reason why people find it cleaner then Facebook, and more acceptable is because there is only so much you can do on Instagram. It’s not like FB and G+ because it’s so much more limiting.
As for G+ – it’s practically now part of Gmail, so all those regular BY girls who have Gmail will most probably have G+. Most don’t use them and I’m sure some don’t even know it exists. And the pictures posted publically on those accounts are usually the profile pictures of their email accounts that Google automatically saves to their G+ profile.
Debating whether to post this on the “If Jewish writers are so good, why don’t they publish secular?” thread, but there’s way too much controversy there. I actually dreamed of publishing a sci-fi book for Jewish teens as it is something I believe is missing from the Jewish world. However, anyone who heard this idea said to scratch it as it would never pick up. All everyone wants to read about is shidduchim, marriage issues and kids in broken homes. So I decided not to waste my creativity in that venue and channeled it elsewhere.
But back to the OP, I for one would definitely would be very interested in this Jewish Harry Potter book, but after googling it, I don’t think it will be accepted in our communities at all. From what I read it doesn’t seem to be mocking at all. It’s just a totally wrong perspective of Judaism.
Thanks for clarifying. Cuz here I thought I chanced upon a whole group of lamid vavniks…oh well.
TAOM – Maybe you could help me! You sound like you know what your talking about. Would you do me a favor and check out the thread I recently posted?
Yup, the mods are the best!
And my question is now: To all those who posted on this thread – Do you think of yourselves as nashim tzidkaniyos?
“Anyone who judges others is horrible and evil.”
“I cannot tolerate intolerance.”
“Don’t ask me what I think of ignorance and apathy; I don’t know and I don’t care.”
“I’m modest and proud of it.”
Thanks TAOM – but I think you missed my rant on subtitles. But I do appreciate you pointing out my name again. I think people are starting to get it straight finally 😉
I think the reason why people assume your not spiritual if you don’t attend sem is because it so common to go. In other words, being that it is so accepted to go to seminary, it’s just one more year of learning and growing – people jump to conclusions that obviously you’re not interested in growing. Because why else would you give up a year most girls look forward to?
As for why people make it into something you have to do, I’m unsure. But society dictates. It’s your choice whether you want to follow or not.
Shopping – Just saw your post after I already posted…
So I found many threads on Joseph and I’m quite amazed at his brazen insolence.
I think its time for a new list as yossi Z and shticky guy seem to have relinquished their posts. As did haifagirl. Shomrim is obsolete. I have no idea what bpt has to do with nailpolish, though I did notice that the nailpolish thread is 7 pages long. Quite impressive. People are now dying for subtitles. Mods don’t edit posts anymore, if it’s inappropriate its just deleted. The last 2 rules still stand I believe (- If you see that you’re ignored, let us know that you’ve had enough, and you think every single one of us is wasting our time. Then, come back and we’ll make a festive Welcome Back party.
– And last but not least, if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all.)
So as I said and then proved, it’s time for a new list. Could some veterans here put something together so new members won’t be as lost as I was/am??
LOL! Yeh, I’ve read the written rules. No big surprises there. Especially that all rules are subject to change without notice.
I still believe many will benefit from the many unwritten rules other posters may have picked up after their stint in the CR. Even a dictionary with the CR Lingo will help a lot. I remember the first time I heard “joseph” I’m like who the heck is joseph and why does everyone hate him? I had no idea haifagirl was a grammar buff. And I see rumors that PBA is a mod… Any proof on that? And how many mods are there? Who are they?
For those interested, Nechama posted another video with questions and answers people have asked her. Check it out!
So to all those researching if streekgeek makes a lot of money and keeps it all, I’ll go right out and say most of it goes to pay taxes. On the other hand SanityIsOverrated is always moving to indirectly avoid paying taxes. I’m pretty sure the Mods will help the IRS get ahold of you.
And I do thank you for answering sincerely, cuz I really did ask an honest question. And I really wanted to hear a normal answer.
And about your moving, maybe I should come along. Where you going next? Anywhere interesting or cool? I could use some more adventure in my life right now.
Either my black one or my grey one. Every day. Any other color would shter my shidduchim.
Thanks Gamanit. Did come across a few once I started looking for them. BTW, is there a count of how many usernames Joseph has used? And there should really be a thread with a whole bunch of tips and unwritten rules for newcomers. Even though I’m not so new (2 months to the day!!), I’m sure there is still tons of things I should know that I don’t.
