So that means it is assur to read shakespere?
VogueMemberTry contacting your local jewish social services agency.
VogueMemberUch… no popa, that was not the point at all. Imagine a baal teshuva becoming the gadol hador. Its the same concept, but on a less extreme level.
VogueMemberBut it is enforced. I tried to mention such a case where it was enforced, but the mods didn’t approve the post.
VogueMemberI hear, but some girls who in general sneak blackberries, or other nonkosher phones into their bais yaakov seminaries have extenuating circumstances. I was accepted to a bais yaakov seminary for shana bet, and if I would have ended up making plans to go, I would find it very difficult to adapt to having a kosher phone. I am not saying I would sneak my galaxy in just because of that, but at the same time, a different girl in my position might want to have a kosher phone, and a smart phone.
VogueMemberOh Snap!
VogueMemberYes, it is an absolute must. At ateres, for sure, although there are plenty of girls who sneak in non-kosher phones so that they can have data and texting plans. I don’t encourage it though. It is not a good idea at all.
VogueMemberNO.
VogueMemberAlso, Popa, I meant in terms of hashkafa, as in very, very, yeshivish.
VogueMemberIt’s complicated
VogueMemberGame money
VogueMemberok
VogueMemberYeah.
VogueMemberIf you grow poppy seeds they will ignore you. If you are underage and drive after using mouth wash they will ignore you too.
VogueMemberThere was a virtual island game I ended up deleting it after I wasted $20,000 paying tribute to a statue that I uncovered. There is Also a virtual theme park that is meant to be for cavemen.
VogueMemberI am still a teenager but I don’t know any greasy yeshiva bochur personally.
VogueMembertheir parents.
VogueMemberBut I am sure the more right wing crowd does it too. They just don’t have the ability to posy anything about it online
VogueMember*Lung
VogueMemberTorah, I never met my grandmother because she died of long cancer when my mother was pregnant with me. My dad would rather smoke than financially support his children. He obviously was not smoking that much unless he started very late in life?
VogueMemberMods, there was nothing. Wrong with my previous post, why wasn’t it approved?
VogueMemberKK
VogueMemberyay.
VogueMemberFour months, but that was in middle school.
VogueMemberI don’t get it…
VogueMemberAlso, in sefer Shmuel, Chana went to the beis hamikdash and when she prayed silently, Eli thought she was drunk, which shows that one can not serve Hashem properly if their state of mind is altered in any way by “artificial” devices such as alcohol, pot or any other mind altering substance.
VogueMemberResearch time and time again has proven that smoking causes the smoker and second hand smoker to die earlier than a non smoker/ someone who is at minimal- no exposure to second hand smoke.
In fact, every time you see an advertisement, a pack of cigarettes, or something of the like, there is ALWAYS a warning from the surgeon general that says smoking kills and causes death (something along those lines). If research has proven this through leading universities, with the best medical doctors in the world, and, in fact, I believe that our gedolim ban smoking and say it is assur (if not, then they should say that) then there is no reason, at the very least, for a person who has never smoked before to even experiment with it.
Unfortunately, if you go on facebook, there are buchorim who are more chilled and they are stupid enough to post pictures of themselves smoking on facebook. And then what happens when they want to apply to college? Get a job? There are so many institutions that preform background checks regardless of the industry (eepecially teaching!) because they want to make sure that their prospective employee has healthy eating habits and can be a good productive member or society and in the work place.
Therefore, smoking, in the long run, is not compatible with the yeshiva culture at all.
VogueMember*some place and smoke them
VogueMemberI hear, it’s just that the druggie culture is not OK in a yeshiva.
VogueMemberRight but I sometimes need to relax
VogueMemberIf my mom found out o was a black hatter she would not know what to do with herself.
VogueMemberYeah I mean I only download free apparently. The thing is that I like playing business simulation games. When I was a kid my rollercoaster tycoon was taken away from me if I was not doing my homework when I needed to.
VogueMemberI wonder if Jewish people even made the Hebrew- English version of google translate.
VogueMemberWhat does Zionism have anything to do with this?
VogueMemberI am no longer a gerrer chasidish woman, but last night I listened to someday we will all be together
VogueMemberTonight, I am a Gerer Chassidish Woman. Now, I need to get off the chas ve’shalom and enjoy my music.
VogueMemberyes
VogueMemberNo, in fact, people feel that it is ok to tell a girl to just not socialize with other people and stay home all day and then she ends up getting depressed to the point where she feels desperate… Its not a jewish concept at all.
VogueMemberTo show us that we are best able to serve Hashem when we are emotionally, physically, and spiritually healthy. Spiritual health does not come until emotional, physical needs are met and one is healthy.
VogueMemberI don’t have the money to repair my macbook. At this point, I had it for so long and it has been repaired so many times that it isn’t worth it anymore. When I get enough money, i have a $250 budget, the samsung chrome book should be fine. Its the only good one that fits in my budget, when i get enough money.
April 25, 2013 11:05 pm at 11:05 pm in reply to: Computer just died, need replacement advice #948475VogueMemberI plan on using it for word processing, school, excel, web browsing.
VogueMemberno problem.
VogueMemberthe cheapest is $249 (I have certain specific requirements about keyboards that I don’t want to go into, and the one for $199 through ACER does not meet those requirements).
VogueMemberget a job?
VogueMemberyup! LOL…
VogueMemberI think the chromebook will meet my needs without 3g.
VogueMemberYep, it’s sad, oh well. Nothing I could do about it. I am looking for a new one in the $250 range. Samsung has one with Good reviews.

VogueMemberno. Why would you name a girl “Sheni”? That means second.
VogueMemberYou don’t really get to talk to the people you are bowling with. Also, arcades if you are playing games together can foster a deeper connection.
