People who start their email with the outdated and irrelevant "I hope this email finds you well."

(got one today, inspired this thread)

People whose voicemail says (as automated voice) "you have reached the voice mailbox of...." And then you hear his voice "hi this Moishey Im not available please leave a message after the beep" and then automated system goes "...is not available...."
Just say your name! Thats the point of the automated mailbox.

There's the famous saying (something around these lines), how the radio starts off by saying good morning, then goes on to tell you why it is not...

Maybe they think it's not halachically prohibited.

i would venture to say remove the word maybe
they dont realize
but there are a lot of threads on DDF where the premise is doing things that are not halachically permissible, or perhaps frowned upon. its sad as its a largely frum forum, but the behavior is exposed to the whole world

Please dont use the word only with issurim derabanan.
They are assur. Period.

Think theres a story with the Chazon Ish wher someone told him that shmittah is only derabannan bzh"z.


ETA: maybe i misread your post . Is only going on derabanan, or on getting caught.

that would be awkward if i was :)
but if its the post i think you are referring to, you were buying it, and if the price didnt go down, you were keeping it. so thats not buying in order to return

That one. Which the price did go down but not worth it yet to return.
