I know exactly wat you mean! I have it all the time!!! I had a customer who I was trying to help, who didn’t know how to open a web browser!!! (This is someone who works in an office!!!!!!!!!) I dunno how she got her job and how she keeps it!
How to deal with it? P-A-T-I-E-N-C-E!! (and of course keep muting the phone to let out a giggle!)
Everyone davens by “their” shkiah, the question is when do you hold shkia is? People that daven by Rabeinu Tam (like my husband) beleive that that’s when shkia is.
Chilling out!! NO WORK!!! 🙂
Just dont do what i did, i was in highschool already and dressed up as a yerushalmi boy, the costume was pretty good, a group of boys came in dancing and grabbed me into the circle with them!… WAS BAD!!!
HE IS DEFINITELY A BOCHUR, I say between 18-20, probably posting from a dira in jerusalem that has internet.
maybe he’s annoying
Chayav: “boredstiffbochur ive learned that people here dont like abbreviations and text lingo. but im glad that now i have another guy that posts like me”
“another guy” – Hey, what happened to your insisting that you’re a grandma??? You gotta be consistent if u lie!
I don’t think he borrowed that many pens, and why would he borrow a pen in a wrapper and return it that way?
I am curious… anyone know more?
In Israel the going rate is 40 NIS, come to think of it I never heard of anyone paying more or less, that’s really the set rate.
What about SHLOIMY GERTNER????? My favorite by far!!!
Hmm…. that’s for me to know, and for you to find out! 😉
NEVER talk about your husband to anyone!!!!
1. If it’s negative – that’s self-understood, lacking in trust and loyalty
2. If it’s posotive – why would you want to wave that in someone else’s face who may not be as fortunate as you, you wouldn’t want to be the cause of someone else’s lack of marital peace, whom will wonder why her husband cant also do/be xyz…
3. If it’s neutral – what makes you think your husband wants details of his life being prattled about between woman.
Bootom line is don’t say ANYTHING, no good can come from it, that’s for sure!
Uh… what’s if your bro-in-law visits the coffeeroom and recognizes the grammen?? Didn’t think of that?
He could even have contributed to his own grammen!!!
HEY!!!! COOOOOLLL!!!
Next time I need a grammen, I’ll know where to turn!!!!
cherrybim: lol!
eclipse: lol
Here in israel (where I live, at least) it’s not really done, I must’ve had at least 40 guests in the last year alone, but never did receive a gift, not that I expect one!
And I HATE when ppl offer to make something, cuz I don’t know how to get out of it, but I REALLY prefer making, serving and eating my OWN food, (but maybe I am a little OTT like that, especially if I’ve never seen your kitchen!!!) I’m inviting YOU, be a guest!
I don’t think the teacher actually meant for her to do the homework, just for her (or for the parent – depending the age) to see what was learnt in class that day.
Eclipse: “I think this cough medicine I finally took has some VITA-MEATA-VEGAMIN IN IT.”
LOL! my favorite!!!
I have the weirdest thing, when I’m enjoying someone’s company, happy with them…etc i see they’re nicest features, that’s what stands out to me, i think they’re beautiful…
But it can be the same person a little later who will be getting me nervous, annoying me and I will only see their worst features and think they are so ugly!
Am I the only one who has this?
count me in! or did i miss it?
me too!
TheGoq LOL!!!!! 🙂
philosopher: I love gymboree, though I will admit their summer stuff are much cuter than their winter things. Also, are you shopping for a girl or boy? Their girl’s stuff is whats cute, the boys aren’t anything so amazing, but if there’s something nice in boys it’s worth buying it just for the quality, they wash amazing and will last you for a few children, hard to find that anywhere these days.
I know LOTS of young couples in israel with cleaning help. The floors here don’t get mopped like in America, they require ‘sponja’, which is more like man’s labor than ladies. For those that don’t want their husbands to have to do sponja (like is the case in many homes here and is very “normal” – dont tell the shvigger!!!) so they get some outside help, it’s not sooooo crazy! And once shes here doesn’t hurt for her to clean bathrooms too…
Put it this way…
There are gedolim that smoke.
I think I can safely say no Gadol has a facebook account!
When you see a post and can already imagine who will answer and how!
When the work is just piling up, and nothing is getting done even though you’re at the screen for over an hour already.
1. Yeshiva World
2. Gmail
3. Gymboree
4. Shutterfly
5. Accuweather
(I mean top 5, what I enjoy- obviously not including work website which I may be on more)
If you’re wife is feeling sick you might want to tell them for their help!!
Also, it depends what number child it is, the first child one usually says very early, so parents can rest assured that all is ok… but if it’s a subsequent child you dont have to feel rushed to share the word and can tell them when you feel ready.
No need to tell others (siblings, friends, colleagues…) until you’re showing, unless you just can’t keep a secret!
There is NO reason why a girl should have to give a picture of herself!! I mean… a little respect for her as a person and not a sale item! I’ve had shidduchim nixed because of this ridiculous request!
Secondly, I met my husband and as some1 said earlier, it was a real “shocker”, my first thought was NO WAY!! But it was too late and the date wasn’t so bad. After a few dates, I really enjoyed his company but could NOT get used to his looks, on the urging of my father (who convinced me that with time I will get used to it) I went ahead, and we are happily married for a few years with an adorable little son. Do I sometimes look at him and see the “first impression” again? certainly, does his looks bother me once in a while? yes, (maybe something lacking in my marriage??) but when it does, i think of the great middos he has, and the heart of gold… and i wouldn’t trade that for any looks! (had I seen a picture, I never would’ve agreed to go out with him)
(PS: When I was pregnant I was a little nervous my baby would look like him, turns out my baby does, but is absoulutely adorable and I wouldn’t have him looking any other way! (looks like his baby pix, i guess time will tell…)
Hey! Where’s sacrilege? She always has opinions on the food threads!!! (That’s if she didn’t start it!)
Wow! people on CR really work?? I thought they just drink/read coffee!
I work 6 hours a day and thats plenty with a little one and keeping house!
AKCC thats alot of hours! Are you a male/female? Married?
You should write how many hours and who you are cuz it’s really all relative.
101 – l’mamala min 100, a cut above!
As a girl, the kids were allowed to play but the older ones were expected to stay at the table, (that’s why each bathroom was occupied instead…!!!) At my in-laws it’s the opposite, really chilled table, i adopted their style, we have minimum one break a meal (couch is in dining room so not a big deal) I like it that way, it’s hard sitting on a chair so long!
If you live in Israel, you’ll know that even though they’re supposed to “take it outside” (smoking) they don’t! So it won’t work in this regard either!!
I know it’s not what the thread is about, but I can’t STAND when I walk into a store, take-out…etc and people (many times the owner) is smoking right into our faces, if you want people to patronize your store you can’t harm them! I’ve many times had to ask people to put out their cigarettes! (Some are respectful to my request and some just give attitude) I wish they would enforce things here!
If you want to harm yourself, go ahead, but what did I do wrong that I too must be harmed?
Poster: it’s pirsumit
It can’t work, but it will, cuz it can’t change either.
I heard it’s only a sakana if you step on the nail from the opposite gender. i.e. if a woman steps on a man’s nail or a man steps on a woman’s nail. (I heard this in seminary, when we were only girls living in the dorm, and a girl asked a teacher about it)
I have three suggestions:
1. ENSURE A BASSINET
2. ENSURE A BASSINET
3. ENSURE A BASSINET
It’s what will make or break your flight! I just flew with my 8 month old without a bassinet, and… you don’t want to know!! No fun! Last time I had one and the flight was a dream!!
THANK YOU!! Sometimes I’m burning to add something, but don’t have time to look up my random password in my email!! Will be easier to post!! Thanks.
Will never work, unless they convince the girls in seminary and highschool that these boys are worth something too.
There’s a reason why you find today that even boys not cut out for learning are still sitting and “learning” read: hanging around the coffee room; THEY WANT TO GET MARRIED!!
As long as girls are being doctrined that this is the only thing, and this is why women were brought down to this world – to support their husband in learning…etc it will never get very far.
FYI:
“Ralph Lauren was born Ralph Lifshitz in The Bronx, New York, to Ashkenazi Jewish immigrants, from Pinsk, Belarus:[2] Fraydl (Kotlar) and Frank Lifshitz, a house painter.[3]
From a young age he started working after school to earn money to buy suits.
Ralph attended the Salanter Academy Jewish Day School followed by MTA (now known as the Marsha Stern Talmudical Academy), before eventually graduating from DeWitt Clinton High School in 1957.[4][5] In MTA Lauren was known by his classmates for selling ties to his fellow students. In a moment of spontaneity, when asked what he wanted to do in[6] his Clinton yearbook he stated under his picture that he wanted to be a millionaire.[7] During the summer, Ralph attended Camp Roosevelt (Monticello).[8]
At the age of 16, Ralph’s brother Jerry (who was his guardian) changed their last name to Lauren to avoid the unfortunate obscenity reference Lifshitz has in English (although Ralph’s brother Lenny retained the name). Apparently Ralph was teased about it in school.[9] [10]
He went to the Baruch School of Business and Civic Administration of the City College of New York (now known as Baruch College) where he studied business, although he dropped out after two years. From 1962 to 1964 he served in the United States Army.[citation needed] On December 20, 1964, he married Ricky Anne Low-Beer in New York City. The two met six months earlier, in an eye doctor’s office where Ricky was working as a receptionist.[11] He did not attend fashion school, but worked for Brooks Brothers as a salesman. In 1967, with the financial backing of Norman Hilton, Lauren opened a necktie store where he also sold ties of his own design, under the label “Polo.”[12] He later purchased the name from Hilton.”
