ToiParticipant
s’all good man.
ToiParticipantthats really funny. he was my favorite player when i was a kid and still followed. mazel tov.
ToiParticipantSam2- i checked up the Gaon and i think i was right. he seems to be saying his heter on the cases that fit with the second din of tosfos on A”Z 11a that things they were noheg because of hevel vishtus have a heter of ksiva bi’orayso, on which the gaon says that us doing it first is good enough. He’s specifically talking about malbush in sh”a and i think that anyhting due to A”Z would still be ossur- like egg painting. think matzevos-same thing.
ToiParticipantMy grandfather Ztl i believe could have done it before he went blind from macular degeneration. it was unbelievable.
ToiParticipantah! yiddishe nachas!
ToiParticipantill check up the Gaon tomorrow, dont have seforim at home. im still holding in gemara and rishonim.

ToiParticipantSam2- im currently learning the sugya (whatup!) so im in for this thread. i think even if we did it first but then they started doing it, it would still be ossur, bifrat if their practice is mikushar to avodah zara. the taaynah of doing first is only if theres a mikkor in the torah, not stam a practice.
ToiParticipantim chilled before i speak. and quite hammered. its a mitzvah.
April 30, 2013 4:39 pm at 4:39 pm in reply to: What kind of cellphone/smartphone do you have? #950183ToiParticipantkosher phones are honestly a massive matanah. everyone should try one.
ToiParticipantthey define fun as an end unto itself. like getting hammered ig its not friday night. as long as its so you can continue serving hashem and wont miss shabbos morning davening, its a mitzvah.
April 27, 2013 9:29 pm at 9:29 pm in reply to: Letter circulated in Brooklyn about Motzei Shabbos hangouts #950777ToiParticipanthi guys. isnt this debate already old? all rabbonim say one thing, (except MO) and everyone else knows better. old news. i think its funny that health has to fight a battle where the lines are clearly drawn by halacha and RF gets to say “ya, but…” Isnt that ridiculous? yup.teens will forever be doing things wrong. its how Hashem made the world. for those of you who are naive enough to believe that keeping them open in hangout mode will keep them from pursuing worse things outside pizza shop, thats silly. theyll do whatever it is anyway. but fighting rabbonim and halacha pesuka is even dumber.
ToiParticipantagain, has anyone found the program that computes the zmanim for on a plane?
ToiParticipantyichusdik- i think your questions point to the mehalchim of the chassidim in understanding yomim tovim and why they are special. check out the classics on pesach and youll understand, at least partially, what they could have been making a yom tov over.
ToiParticipanti think i heard that huh gufa, this is the only time they complained. if it mattered that much every time and the tzibbur would complain maybe Hashem would give them a make-up.
ToiParticipantrationalfrummoe- the book quotes him. they dont write a thing on there own in that piece. its cited. another point- theres a teshuvos chasam sofer where he says he never ate any veggies aside from those required by judaism ie marror throughout the year due to bugs. stop picking and choosing.
ToiParticipantsugar
ToiParticipantread norman lamms definition of modern orthodoaxy as brought down in artscrolls biography on R Hirssch ztl to gain a better perspective of the idealogical differences between the two shittos. they have no shaychis. besides the fact theyre both not satmar.
ToiParticipantrationalfrummie- youre right, women should go back to the kitchen.
April 21, 2013 9:23 pm at 9:23 pm in reply to: How to answer questions regarding a shidduch #1042524ToiParticipant“he’s not totaly michallel shabbos…”
ToiParticipantub- im not saying any psak. im just saying that the sarcastic tone of your retort was unwarranted, as losing income to fufill a halachah isnt a novelty. im not equating the two, but its for a posek to decide.
ToiParticipantDY- i know. id prefer my daughter marry a guy w/ a gun. he can save her from crazies.
ToiParticipantim a shomer sachar.
ToiParticipantB”H theyre alive and well.
ToiParticipantub- how about chillul shabbos. hint- all of it.
ToiParticipantDY- im gonna stick to my guns on this one. if the only thing my children do wrong is smoke, ill be an incredibly proud parent.
ToiParticipantits because of avodah zara. a bunch of amaratzim.
ToiParticipanttorah613- as a metter of fact, im pleased to let the oilam know that the maharal diskin is mifurash that the egg came first. he is midayek three lishonos of rashi in parshahs breishis and says the egg came first. i love this one. sam2, i think youd enjoy it. ayin shum.

How do these posts make it past the mods?
ToiParticipantSharaga, as a current resident of yerushalayim, its clear that many, if not most, of the americans lliving here are more makpid than they would be on kashrus in america. it perfectly convenient and really doesnt require much effort. the hechsherim in question could very well be better than the OU, but on standards here they dont cut it.
ToiParticipantwhat gets me more are the guys who wont chas veshlom wear anyhting identifiable as brand name or flashy for fear of not seeming yeshivish, but are sure to spend 200 dollars on a tie and a grand on a suit because only the best is good enough for them. ichsa.
March 7, 2013 5:32 pm at 5:32 pm in reply to: Everything is great, but I'm not sure if there is chemistry! #953664ToiParticipantMCP- shes lived a (assumption) happy life until now. thinking of life without him shouldnt be a big deal.
ToiParticipantubquitin- you said “Metzitza b’peh +1”
and so, your credibility as a poster just plummeted.
ToiParticipantyossi- generally speaking, the media is never the source for accurate information.
ToiParticipantchezkas kashrus
ToiParticipantrabbit stew is the way to go
March 7, 2013 5:20 pm at 5:20 pm in reply to: Everything is great, but I'm not sure if there is chemistry! #953659ToiParticipanti usually answer these questions, but this one does not have a general answer. i know of cases where people got married in situations like this and were happy, and i know of some where things went very bad. find someone else. best of luck.
ToiParticipant“and my achx!”
ToiParticipanti would like
“Leaves cleat marks on the heads of trolls.”
ToiParticipanti wear a cap with my cleats. so i can step on your head, and not get sunburned.
ToiParticipantvivianni is the man.
March 6, 2013 11:25 am at 11:25 am in reply to: Do the women in your house do heseiba (lean)? #1070803ToiParticipanti think my rebbe said no.
ToiParticipantnebach.
ToiParticipantless- maskim. nine year olds throwing up everywhere is gross.
ToiParticipantwe usually serve up a stew on leil seder. is there another way?
ToiParticipantGAW- while dating, they are off limits. everyone else hypersexualized everything in society, and if youre familiar with bochurim today, you would understand and know how the slightest trigger is still a trigger. it also diplays a level of heimishkeit that certain big people deem unappropriate at this point in a relationship.
With regard to your first point, i disagree. obviously i dont mean have kids and make them chareidim. i mean that the goal of our existence is to be mikadesh shem shomayim. you are digressing from the centrasl point of our argument which is whether or not factors that can cloud logical judgment should be introduced into a decision that is nearly entirely logical. for some reason you think that two people should develop taivos that preclude their ability to make an unbiased decision. you alone agree that a relationship with ones WIFE should be that of love etc., not with your date.
ToiParticipantoomis- again, i said people will always have the same biological makeup. thats a given. it does not matter if people do not read/watch/enjoy secular entertainment. they still pick up that society around them has taken a three letter word and made it the absolute goal and focus of society, whereas fifty or even 20 or 30 years ago, although people were into it, the focus of every song/movie/tv show etc. wasnt to talk about all things prust. i think this is clear, if youve ever watched a film from this year and 20 years ago. i honestly dont think there really is room for discussion. if you realy dont see a difference between the generations then you cant agree with me. i just dont understand how you could be so blind.
ToiParticipantGaw- the point of dating is to figure out if two people can build a marriage and home together, to continue passing on the torah and mesorah we’ve lived with for a very very long time. yes, love and and the relationship shebo are integral factors in this being possible, but they are heichee timtzas, not the endgame. to that end, we date with a whole bunch of rules, to allow for a setting in which to best make a decision about the other party. intentionally creating an atmosphere where hormones get involved clouds the vision of the two youngins, and allows for other cheshbonos, ones that may not be in line with the real reason your getting married. thats pshat in the name thing. and in case your answer is “well, i dont feel funny when i call a random girl by her first name”, these guys do/will.
ToiParticipantoomis- id like to point out that ive heard from big rabbonim that the taaveh of the times back then wasnt for hefkerus and pritzus as today. society in general was less focused on all things sexual, and although people havent changed, the societal norms, and therefore the degree to which we must go to counteract them, indeed have. that requires some sort of system to keep young people within acceptable boundaries. there you go.
