Torah613TorahParticipant
Canadian Mountie:
1. For the sake of society. It would help slow the trend to equalize the genders at the expense of the men.
2. For the sake of Catherine. It would be nice for Catherine.
3. For the sake of the child. How would she find someone of higher status to marry.
Torah613TorahParticipantI saw a boat the other day.
I saw a moat the other day.
I did not see a boat in a moat the other day.
Torah613TorahParticipantI also liked “overly expansive”, “broad”, and “weighty”.
Torah613TorahParticipantShuli: Personally, I wouldn’t settle for just any cantaloupe. I want my husband to feel he is worth a PINK cantaloupe AND an enormous sugar coated watermelon.
July 26, 2013 12:39 am at 12:39 am in reply to: Why are Jewish clothing brands so overpriced? #967925Torah613TorahParticipantAll women’s clothing is overpriced.
Compare the price of the fabric and trimmings to the prices in Macy’s, Banana Republic, Gap, or any non-Jewish store, and it’s easy to figure this out.
Nothing to do with being frum. I don’t get how you can sell something that has little more fabric than a bathing suit, and charge the same prices as a full skirt and top that actually covers something.
Torah613TorahParticipantI’d vote for Bill DeBlasio too. There’s no point voting for someone who has no chance to win (read: Republican without major financial backing).
Torah613TorahParticipantPBA.
The funny questions people come up with.
Interacting with frum people.
Torah613TorahParticipantUsually you meet in your home, then he takes you to a lounge, which you are not actually permitted to lounge around in.
If all else fails, discuss the weather.
But do not discuss pink elephants, under any circumstances. You do not want to know what will happen if you discuss pink elephants. Pink elephants are not a good thing to talk about when you are trying to think of something to say. What should you not talk about? Pink elephants
To summarize: Avoid thinking or saying anything about pink elephants.
Torah613TorahParticipantScientists: Thank you for joining and posting.
Torah613TorahParticipantPrince William of Wales and Duchess Catherine are not hiring a nanny. I think they have the right idea.
Torah613TorahParticipantDerechErets: Please rate this thread on a scale of 1-250, with 1 being dead serious, and 250 being a complete troll, and please support your response with evidence from his posts.
Torah613TorahParticipantcrisisoftheweek: Aren’t you charming.
I’ll probably end up voting for Bill Thompson. Don’t think the Republicans have a chance.
Torah613TorahParticipantVogue: I hear you. Maybe you can find a therapist who is more flexible.
Torah613TorahParticipantPopa really is an excellent troll.
Torah613TorahParticipant1. I don’t like when people ask leading questions that:
2. Basically tell us how you want us to judge these boys (negatively),
3. Based on a second hand, one-sided story, which
4. Leaves us with no way to judge whether you are leaving out important information.
And if you really don’t know what shomer negia is, google it, and come back to us.
Torah613TorahParticipantWhat if you’re a doctor, don’t you have to tell a girl if she is fat?
Torah613TorahParticipantVogue, how is it going with finding a therapist? Maybe ask him about that.(remember our conversation in this thread: http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/imaginary-friends-teddy-bears-dolls )
Torah613TorahParticipantI’m hoping for a boy, personally.
I got my wish! I should have placed a bet. Oh well.
July 24, 2013 12:54 pm at 12:54 pm in reply to: About people asking me the time while I'm lifeguarding I do shudder #1020754Torah613TorahParticipantHang up a clock behind you, then just wave in that direction when asked.
Torah613TorahParticipantYehuda shouldn’t work either, they should make the sisters do all the work.
That will make Yehuda become more of a talmid chacham.
Torah613TorahParticipantChickens aren’t really fleishig anyway, they’re just a chumra on basar v’chalav.
July 24, 2013 12:51 pm at 12:51 pm in reply to: Who are the top ten posters that EVERYONE knows? #1070030Torah613TorahParticipantLOL Shopping – don’t worry, if there’s a popularity contest, you’d be doing all right. 🙂
Torah613TorahParticipantI liked it. Especially the bleach and beach parts. It wasn’t quite up to the level of the Aveirah song, but still very funny. Well done.
Torah613TorahParticipantI think it is a great idea.
Popa would like him to be happy, so here is a suggestion (not popa’s original, unfortunately): Simply start calling yourself and your male graduates Maharat’s also! This will make everyone equal and the same!
In fact, he can even take this further. He is also sad that his female Maharats are unable to be dayanim. So what he should do, is to say that his male maharats also cannot be dayanim! Or eidim! (Truth is they are passul l’eidus anyway because http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/lol-they-are-apikorsim/)
This is so good it deserves to be quoted.
Torah613TorahParticipantI read his articles every week. I have also practically memorized Don’t Yell Challah In a Crowded Matzah Bakery.
PBA is excellent too, but we get to see his best work all the time because he doesn’t have a deadline.
It’s not a competition.
Torah613TorahParticipantYes, the last remnants of a world that was.
I’m hoping for a boy, personally.
July 18, 2013 7:13 pm at 7:13 pm in reply to: Do boys really have the upper hand in shidduchim? #966450Torah613TorahParticipantOneOfMany: Any title you call me, is an honor.
July 18, 2013 6:47 pm at 6:47 pm in reply to: Do boys really have the upper hand in shidduchim? #966448Torah613TorahParticipantOOM: I say I speak on behalf of them, and they didn’t protest. I agree to disagree. Whether you agree to agree to disagree is your issue. 🙂
Torah613TorahParticipantQuote from the CrossCurrents article, Avrohom Gordimer, July 18 2013:
July 18, 2013 5:07 pm at 5:07 pm in reply to: Do boys really have the upper hand in shidduchim? #966445Torah613TorahParticipantOOM: In honor of Elul let’s agree to disagree.
Why not? I also speak on behalf of all females of every species, New Yorkers, Orthodox Jews and Discworld fans. 🙂
July 18, 2013 3:57 pm at 3:57 pm in reply to: Do boys really have the upper hand in shidduchim? #966442Torah613TorahParticipantOneOfMany: That’s just the correct male/female dynamic (notice how I wrote that :)). Women don’t have the need to be dominant and in charge that most men have. So it’s to the benefit of both genders if they have the upper hand.
July 18, 2013 3:46 pm at 3:46 pm in reply to: Do boys really have the upper hand in shidduchim? #966440Torah613TorahParticipantWhat’s so terrible about having the upper hand in shidduchim? Someone has to, and I’d rather it be the man.
Torah613TorahParticipantDashingly, of course.
July 17, 2013 8:44 pm at 8:44 pm in reply to: How to tell if someone on gchat is actually offline or only pretending to be. #966038Torah613TorahParticipantGchat is assur. It can lead to talking to the opposite gender on YWN CR.
Torah613TorahParticipantIt’s the day after the fast and I’m still feeling weak and have little to no appetite. (made it through the fast but very weak)
Things I have already tried:
Eating slowly
Eating bread first
Eating protein first
Drinking first
Drinking juice
Taking a break after eating a little
Please only give advice if it is not obvious or listed above.
No one else has post-fasting problems? (as opposed to fast posting issues. 🙂 )
Torah613TorahParticipantYesh Tikva!!
July 16, 2013 6:47 pm at 6:47 pm in reply to: In honor of Tisha B'av. What you respect about… #1165174Torah613TorahParticipantI respect popa_bar_abba for starting this thread. It was a very inspiring read.
I respect mechanchim and mechanchos for doing their best to raise another generation b’kedusha v’tahara.
Torah613TorahParticipantYou should be asking what impression it makes on the girls.
According to the girls on inshidduchim.com, it is a major red flag.
Torah613TorahParticipantDY: Don’t feel bad, I got a 0.
July 14, 2013 4:06 pm at 4:06 pm in reply to: Is it assur to wear a necklace with a symbol on it? #966010Torah613TorahParticipantwritersoul: It’s associated with a certain liberalism. Like nowadays they’d be upset if you wore a rainbow.
July 12, 2013 4:46 pm at 4:46 pm in reply to: Is it assur to wear a necklace with a symbol on it? #965996Torah613TorahParticipantwritersoul: You should. Or you will be very confused when the principal pulls you over.
Torah613TorahParticipantjewish feminist: I was thinking of the bill of the goose eating: ??? ???, ???? ?????
Torah613TorahParticipantEmily Dickinson on bumping threads: “A word is dead when it is said, some say. I say it just begins to live that day.”
Torah613TorahParticipantLooking online to get a shas for my chasan; on a budget but I don’t know the first thing about the differences and what to look for and what’s okay and what’s not.
How about an online shas? Like an Otzar Hachochma package?
Torah613TorahParticipantIf your child still has issues with wetting the bed, s/he is not ready to go to camp, period.
July 12, 2013 12:40 pm at 12:40 pm in reply to: Is it assur to wear a necklace with a symbol on it? #965992Torah613TorahParticipantMost BY schools do not permit peace signs.
A word of advice: Do not wear symbols, if you do not know what they mean.

He’s an outstanding person and has been our family dentist for years. He’s brilliant, professional, and has a heart of gold. Many Rabbonim and important people go to him; he’s always available to all of his patients, and really cares. Highly recommended.
Torah613TorahParticipantYou have an odd way of expressing your so called love for all Jews.
.
Torah613TorahParticipant(not an installment, but writersoul, pleasure)
Torah613TorahParticipantI’ve received expert advice to not sell the ticket, so I wouldn’t.
