Because it ruins the flow of the song. That’s what I would guess, try it you’ll see what I mean.
Is crocodile skin mutar to be worn on TB?

Like jewishfem said. Different animals live in different climates and need different environments. Just like you have fish that live in fresh water and fish that live in saltwater same thing with animals everything has its place.

Have you ever done Segway? There’s a place for that in the Catskills. There’s also horseback riding up there. If you are into fruit picking I heard there are farms upstate that have that and supposedly it is enjoyable from what people who have gone tell me. Never did it though on that scale.
You can also try googling “fun stuff to do in the Catskills.”
Just to add to the fray I happen to know a lot of guys 25-30 who are still single so “if there is a crisis” it’s equal on both sides except that the girls tend to over dramatize things so everyone is worried about the poor girls who nebach are in their low 20’a and not married.
Now what I don’t understand is that Nasi and some other unintelligent groups want boys to look away an marry a girl older then them yet I know many boys in the 25-30 range who get NOs from the mothers because the boy is too old even though the girl already hit 20. So what on earth is going on?!
What’s going on is you have a lot of crazy parents doing everything they can in their power to get the most perfect guy or girl in the universe for their child who is quite far from perfect and they just keep running around in circles getting nowhere because they aren’t trying to actually find a shidduch that would be a good match for their child. I know of people that have girls who nebach date maybe once a year because nobody is good enough for mommy or totty. It’s ridiculous. How many of these mothers tell their daughter the truth that the reason they can’t get a date is because they said no to over 30 good shidduchim that weren’t good enough for the most foolish reasons? If you asked me (and I base my opinion on conversations with some shachanim who are not big name but try hard to get people married) the parents are wrecking things for their children while thinking that they have their best interests at heart.

You can’t undo certain things. If a person ruined their mind and body with drugs or doing other things there’s no undoing them an there’s a certain regret and possibly even addiction or strong tendency to certain things that will have to be fought for many years. Just because he or she comes back doesn’t mean they are healed or whole it just means they realized the foolishness of their ways. They still have to live with whatever effects their choices had on their physical or mental well-being. For example if a girl makes a certain mistake she can’t take that back and so to a guy to some extent for that matter. It’s something that they will have to live with for life. Whatever demons people on the derech battle it’s no comparison to what people who came back have to live with.

Now these Rabbanim retired and just post threads in the coffeeroom.
How about boating and amusement parks?

Thanks for presenting the silver lining. However as shtark as they may become, depending on how long they were “off” and what they did during that time, they can have some serious demons to battle for the rest of their lives.
I was wondering the same thing. I think this comes up every year.

Profound.
“I think that therefore there is a vacuum of real leadership in SOME quarters of the tzibur.”
I think that there’s a real vacuum of real followship (not a word, until this second that is) in SOME quarters of the tzibur.
Its amazing how people today are so quick to jump on and castigate Rabbanim and spout about what they “should do” and about what they did wrong and blah blah. Humility is in order. How would you feel if after being in a line of work for 20, 30, or more years and becoming one of the global leaders in the field some pupik who is barely out of school or comes over and tells you how you should be running your business?!

You sure you didn’t mean to respond to writersoul?

“I personally have yet to meet a girl who is capable of learning biyun the way a boy does or who would make a good chavrusa for a boy.”
You obviously haven’t met the girls who have very logical brains and who excel at math….There are some very smart girls who have a gemara kup who can learn gemara better than many boys if they so wished to.
Someone should write a book titled “The Shidduch crisis, a work of fantasy and fiction.”
Jewishfem
Good advice there.
Torah
And why is it ok for girls to have smartphones? I see many teenaged girls with smartphones. They need it vee ah luch in kup.

Some people give tur and shulchon aruch as well.

When you say pot you mean marichuanna?
The real way is to bribe the mods.
Zahavasdad
In almost all cases people go OTD because they are angry and in pain and they are either (foolishly and misguidedly) lashing out at Hashem or at those who hurt them and perceive that this way of life must be meaningless if their Rebbe Morah Rav parent….can be so hurtful and put on a facade of being frum.
It’s very important to pace yourself while Davening otherwise you can fall behind and lose out on tefillah betzibur.
Not so yeshivish
If its filtered its not so bad. But make sure it’s a proper filter and not some lame filter that is easily bypassed. Truth be told a bachur or yungerman who isn’t working really has no need for an iPhone but we live in a world where people like to have things that they don’t need. Either way I am sure that if you choose to pass on having a smartphone until you actually need one it will certainly be a zechus for you to find a good zivug and bekarov. Hatzlacha and may things go easy for you.
Can we not talk meat in the 9 days? Lol. Making me hungry….
Someone needs to set up a pidyon shvuyim fund for this guy. He’s getting railroaded.
An oz vehadar shas if you get the large one with everything in it is massive. You need a lot of space for such a shas.

That too. But rebdoniel does Tikkun Chatzos so it’s just rather funny putting it all together.
Torah and others
When I went to camp as a kid there was someone in my bunk who used to bed wet. It was kept quiet but some people caught on. However nobody dared make fun of him and since he was a nice guy he actually was very popular and accepted and did very well in camp made a lot of friends was good at sports and what not. There’s no reason a kid who is 10 or older with a problem should stay home.
Rebdoniel
Nothing beats pick and choose Judaism. Hey as long as you do Tikkun Chatzos right?
Octopi
Better to be sure. If you don’t mind can you describe in detail what the symbols are? You’ll be surprised how many symbols you think are nothing actually mean something.

So one can wear a Buddha necklace?
I had to stop after 2 lines because it is too painful to read this.
Every once in a while Hashem reminds frum sports fans that the people they are rooting for and waste their money on to see them live hate their guts. Just that some of them are more vocal about it.

I think now the law is that they are mandatory reporters in NY and NJ but I don’t believe this was always the law. Health can tell us more about this but I think it’s recent that this became law. Certainly in NY it’s recent it happened last year.
Haleivi
I think there’s a few parts to it here’s what I have off the top of my head. I don’t know if its the main but it’s certainly an important aspect.
1. Every time he sees the guy on the street…his wounds get ripped open and it’s like it just happened to a certain extent in that the trauma comes back just by seeing him.
2. I think any victim of a crime certainly molestation or rape….needs a sense of closure knowing that it can’t and won’t happen again to him or her and that they are now safe.
3. I think that victims feel a need to make sure the person is stopped so he can’t harm others.
Gavra
I agree. As long as these molesters run free in the streets the pain is compounded by seeing that there is no justice.
Jbaldy
In the past the Rabbanim have made it crystal clear that they are against violence. They have made their opinion clear over the last few years by all the protests that nobody should be violent. They were of course ignored by this core group of hooligans. Hooligans don’t listen to Rabbis and anyone with seichel knows that the Rabbonim are against violence. They aren’t politicians. It’s ridiculous to expect a “statement” from them every time a few violent idiots do something. The only time they need to speak up is if the crazies arrested say “our Rabbis told us to do this.” Otherwise leave the Rabbonim alone and let them learn and lead their hundreds of thousands of NORMAL chassidim and talmidim.
Yichusdik
It’s hard to hear when your fingertips are shoved into your ear drums and you are busy yelling blah blah blah at the top of your lungs.
Popa is making a good point if they offer anything more than a few $100 then they are sure you won. Btw if you won then congrats and much Hatzlacha!
Goq
I’m with Morahrach. Very well put.

This monster is like a crazy rabid dog running around looking to bite and ruin the life of anyone he can. He MUST be stopped and the only way to do that is report him to the police. How can it be that after one yeshiva fired him another hired him and then another…? Such a person should not be allowed near children after the first offense! Anyways you have an achrayus to other innocent children to make sure that this man is reported to the police so they can take care of him and make sure he never hurts another child again. It’s a chiyuv and a mitzvah. If you need guidance call Rabbi Dovid Cohen or Rabbi Noach Isaac Oelbaum.
