i like being mamale!!
letakain'ale

TAKE IT UP WITH UNCLE KEDUSHA'LE

I DONT WANT TO KICKED OFF THE FORUM

Hey, knock it off! If you-all get kicked off the forum, where will we go for directions to good corned beef? or for yiddish lessons? or for basically anything that really matters?!!!

I hate to be the only serious guy here and say if that name Mammelah continues. Its as good as any chatrooms. Maybe its only me but thats how i feel. Seems to be Yh has found loopholes in the Holy forum.

being as my name is a little too personal (rule #346.check the GYE official rulebook www.goldenlaurel.com/images/KTH/Web-Rule-Book-Cover.gif)
I am patiently awaiting the moment when I will receive my expulsion email from our very own High Chancellor

Laon Ata,

Your not the only one, but pretty close to the only one.

Chat Rooms?!

Whatever!

I guess like they say, "Everyone to there own"

Im sorry Loynata,but im gonna have to disagree with you 100% on this one.
There is a tremendous difference between a Rebbe's affection for a bas yisrael in calling her Mammelah and someone on some forum looking for sex calling a girl "baby".
The whole koach of the forum is the love and the comfort found here.
This is not a mosque, for G-d's sake.
Guard is a very intelligent person and he knows what he's doing.He hints to people here and there that they are getting a little too comfortable. But he understands the beauty of the forum.
Please,this is not Saudi Arabia.
And it is not Ben Yehuda.
I'm seriously not liking what's going on lately on this forum.

cmon guys if anybodys getting tossed its me...i felt kedusha's cold hard stare when i read rule number 4:
4.) Vulgar or blasphemous language (even if used in jest or "tongue in cheek") is forbidden on the GYE forum.  Furthermore, statements or jokes that, in the moderator's judgment, are in very poor taste, are also subject to editing.

also, im not sure if flake is a nickname but if it is, im not only gonna get chucked, ill get burned, beaten and stoned first...

Ok, ok, I want to explain what I saw in the EL's old new avatar.
This is not a pitch for a change, but I think it's a nice idea so I'm gonna share.
I don't think I've posted this in the past, but I might have. If so, forgive my forgetfulness.
I also do not recall the source, I just remember hearing it from a friend,
I believe in the name of some rebbe. It was years ago that I heard this.
Anyway...

So, we talk all the time about how falls can bring one closer to HKB"H
and how BTs are on higher levels.
We all have a kesher to HKB"H. A pretty direct one as well.
Sometimes we may feel it more, sometimes less.
Let's imagine that we are connected to Him by a rope.
If I fall way from Him, be it depression, acting out,
or whatever falling might mean to each one of us at the present moment,
that rope gets disconnected or even torn
or may look like EL's old new avatar...
Now, what do we do when a rope that we need tears?
I would tie it back together.
If we can picture the rope, then we might understand
that whatever the original length of the rope,
after it is tied together again, it is a bit shorter.
Meaning the two ends have now come closer together.
Me on one side, HKB"H on the other.

This is a very helpful idea for me.
And that is why I really lik
ed EL's old new avatar.
Because, mamash! efshar letaken!
and that tikkun goes a long way!

Again, no need to make any more changes,
and thank you for helping bring this out of me.
I hope that others may find this idea helpful.

b'ahava ub'vracha,

Sturggle

P.S. Mom, no pulling on the rope!!!

Sturggle, nice!

Uri, go easy on Loynata. His main nisayon was chatrooms, so he's always been very sensitive to the cross-gender sharing on the forum, especially when it sounds a little too freindly. We have to understand that some people are triggered by things that we can't even understand. (An SSA guy once told me he gets triggered from seeing sweaty socks in the Mikva!)

But uri's right. We have to go according to the majority, and the majority want warmth and don't find it triggering... But of course, everything with careful balance. This is not Saudi Arabia, and not Ben Yehudah. It is GYE for goodness sake, and - if you haven't noticed - the guy in the logo is walking on a TIGHT ROPE!!  

R' Guard, I'm freaking out

there's a picture of a guy on my screen, and I have no clue how he got there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and there's no fire shooting out of his eyes!!!!!!!!!!
I'm telling you, I'm really scared of him!

MOMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!
save me!
