Topic Wiki

With so much happening on DDF, there are likely many gems that you missed because you weren't following that specific thread. Well I say, "no more!" If you come across a post that you feel deserves a wider audience, whether it was very informative, funny, or deserving of being highlighted for any other reason, post it here.

A few proposed rules:

1) You cannot submit your own posts.
2) Provide necessary context.
3) Quote properly and provide links. Don't say, "Yo, check out Dan's post about RC. It's friggin awesome."
4) Let the person know in the original thread they've been "Best Ofed"
5) This thread is only for DDF. One liners, articles, pictures and videos etc. from outside DDF all have their own threads already.

List of a few of them:
"May your flights depart on time, your apps get auto-approved, and your MS never backfire." -MMGFARB
"Please only reply if you can actually answer the question and not litter the forum with useless Sarcastic banter." -Shnozolla
"Even a broken clock is right twice a day. You're the broken clock." -Baruch
"Sorry. Look at the bright side I just "bump"ed you" -NafNaf12
"I bribed the Guard $1 at the Anti-Corruption Unit to let me into the building - Just for the novelty." -Suave

Apologies in advance, not sure I'm doing this correctly, can't see it fully in the preview.

I'd love to read the original thread this was posted in; @grodnoking do you mind to post a link?

Thanks!

Thanks @ckmk47, you mean this, correct? Think that's what I did, before writing my text in reply box I scrolled down to the post I wanted to refer to and hit the button. Funny, not sure why didn't happen. Never mind, don't want to annoy anyone here by (hijacking?) redirecting thread...

Not to hijack, this will be our last correspondence here. all others should be in pm.

What I want you to do, is go to grodnoking's post of November 08, 2019, 09:50:55 AM
right above the stuff he quotes it is written where it came from:
Quote from: Yard sale on November 08, 2019, 09:40:19 AM

DO NOT click on the 'quote' box in the upper right corner, but click on the words:
'Quote from: Yard sale on November 08, 2019, 09:40:19 AM'

That should bring you to the place it was quoted from.

It's a major split in Chabad, and the bitter fight has been going on for years.

There are basically two camps. The first, and the one one that most Israelis fall into, especially those from Tzfat, sings, "v'AD ziknah ani hu."
The second, and the one that most Americans fall into, sings, "v'ad zikNAH ani hu"

I'm shocked that Yoni sings it the way he does in the video. I would never imagine him to be such a traitor.

Considering his posting history, it's the least surprising thing ever that doodle would be willing to sacrifice as many people as it takes to maintain his personal perverted frumkeit.

I'm sure he doesn't actually daven with a minyan, as doing that would require friends to inform you where such minyanim are taking place.

Thank you to everyone who participated in this campaign, and especially to @aygart and @12HRS for matching!
There was no simple way to calculate it all, but we settled on a formula that recognized $1612 in donations, which all three of us matched (despite our original commitment of $1000). So that is a total of $6448 - in 2 days.
