I’ve always thought this was an urban legend (kinda like the “Chassidish Superman” [being deliberately vague]- והמבין יבין)

Sorry, but I’m not authorized to disclose details.

Details may need to be shared on the BB forum (if at all). It’s an inappropriate legend. Possibly regretting bringing it up in the first place.

I noticed the guy next to me by shacharis started putting his Shel Rosh on his arm. I felt so bad for him. When he realized he had two straps to wrap he realized, I wanted to pat him on the back but decided making pretend I didnt see would probably make him happier

My wife sent me a picture of us.
I responded that she looks nice.
She sends back "only because I'm standing next to you"

maybe I'm naive(I'm single) but posts like this should make us stop looking at the selfish women on screens and start caring about the relationships that matter

Imma have to amend

If she only looks good because she's standing next to me, I must look pretty bad. 

(Of course it's a joke. A loving moment that could have been mistaken awkward).
