My dear friend Zag, GSBY is one of the guys to learn from. Check out his thread. Oh, and what's the dessert gonna be?
Keep trucking, keep posting, and don't mind us too much:)

Live with it somewhere else

Thanks for the advice but I'm perfectly comfortable living with it here, even if it's an unpopular opinion or makes you uncomfortable. 

At least you have ego strength going for you something you can hang your hat on during the lean times. Good for you 

does this conversation have an exit?

Thanks guys for the reminder who we all are.

Addict or not, we are not laid back lazy GFN’s that don’t have a clue how to find porn on a triple filtered device. 

We don’t have that chilled mentality!!

We get excited when we see a woman. 
Some get excited when we see a man. 
We get excited when someone gives opinions that don’t jive with our hive. 
It’s part of our fabric. 

It’s healthy to debate. It even got an old member to post for the 1st time!

I only ask that it’s done with a lower flame.
Keep the passion trucking!

Hey I can feel your energy too!
I like it!!

Just please don’t go and let it out on porn, cos that would be downright stupid. 
Now guy please don’t argue with me and say he should go get some porn  - THIS is not up for debate :-) adios

Many capable Rabbonim I have come across in my own journey.
For me it was (is) like any Shaila I had (have). Many Rabbonim have areas they are knows to be a "Mumche" in. One needs to find the right one.

This is a very sensitive [Contentious]  topic - I also think that many people are getting very worked up here. I also know that there's many nuances to a human being. 

Its Thursday night - Can someone please pass the Chulent and Diet Pepsi. 

-May the force be with you-

Please do not post links on the forum, especially those that do not conform to the GYE platform.

Thank you

Ironically you just triggered another contentious topic…Diet Pepsi??  What good frum Jew goes Diet Pepsi over Diet Coke???

Originally I’d written Diet Coke.

But I remembered the Israeli version of Diet Pepsi was better.

My mind went back to those real Yeshiva Leil Shishi days/nights in Israel.

Chulent, Yerushalmi Kugel, the Pickel, and Diet Pepsi.
(Sometimes they had Cherry Coke Zero).

Now please pass the Petel and ג׳אמפ.

i believe Pepsi is Badatz, so there’s that too

Which one is it? No external links? Or no external links that conform to your worldview?

Hi there all my holy brothers and friends at GYE. If I can share a few thoughts here on Zag's thread
I have thought a lot about some of the arguments that got a little heated here in the past, and I would like to share my thoughts. Respecting someone's opinion means we don't have to keep repeating and proving our point until they agree. We may and will disagree. But perhaps we should keep the following things in mind.
A) Never use terms or words that are hurtful. Never put down anyone, by saying or hinting that they are deficient in any which way that makes them incapable of having an opinion
B ) Keep it cool. take a deep breath. The world is not coming to an end because of someone's post or disagreement with us
C) If a question is posed by someone, and we answer, with some of us answering one way and some differently, it is not necessary to argue at all. We may respectfully ask someone why they wrote something, but it is probably better not to. If we do, whatever they answer ends the discussion. Don't argue continuously.
D) If someone writes something, we may disagree, and we may write it. If someone argues with something that we have written and we feel like we can clarify and add something, we should limit ourselves to one answer. No continuing to bring proofs etc.
E) I would add that if we feel the need to express our opinion in more detail, but we don't want to make a whole fuss, just start your own thread.
Thank you dear holy brothers for allowing me to join your special family!
