"Does saying Yoshke's name give you the creeps?"

No, but "BIL stares at young niece" sure does!

Our beds have been looking kind of pale lately...

My first reaction, honestly, was that OP had a hard day and was venting and titled the post with some random letters, (like fdgrerteafgrad) out of frustration. LOL

Yeah, same here! LOL

Nope, they can keep Mecca & Har Habayis is ours to begin with.

If I may, 2 immediate reactions that were not to thread titles...

Someone's sig (friedasima?) has a quote from Tehillim 89, and I keep reading the 89 as a year. As in Remember "..." that we used to say all the time in Camp Tehillim back in the summer of 1989?

This came up in a serious thread, so I didn't want to post it there, but someone wrote about a woman's uterus erupting (instead of rupturing l"a) and, well, the visual was just too much!

um, what IS that?

It's a type of mascara I think. The funniest is that I saw it on a non-Jewish makeup site the same day and thought it was about some kind of sheitel!

Any good ideas for obsessive thoughts?

...OK... how about, "I have to wash my hands!" or "Did I really lock the door?" or "Did I turn the oven off?" Just a few suggestions... I can think of more if you want...

I've made my opposition to thumbs up posts clear, but I have to say, yy, you're the best all-time "immediate reaction to thread title" poster here. Every one of yours makes me laugh and nod, everyone is perfectly executed. That turkey and string one was perfection.

A compliment from Clarissa, WOW!!! It's going to go to my head. It's like Steve Martin or Steven Wright or other funny people named Steve telling me that I'm funny. THANKS for singling out little old two-letter, lower-case me for your accolades. And you have a good day, now, y'hear? Flower

I'm being compared to the Steves? Wow, now it's my turn to be flattered. My day is already getting better.

Well, for all I know, your name might actually be Steve. Unless it's Maryann or Betty.

Actually, it's ww. I don't use it as my name here, for fear that people might confuse us.

OK, I'm having a slow brain day. I had to think, "ww... now is that as in George Bush? But that makes no sense at all, and just basically makes no sense at all. Did she mean www, as in world wide web? But that also makes no sense. Did she mean DW, the little aardvark sister in the Arthur books? But no, she said ww..." Then I finally realized what my own name is, and it all fell into place.

Boy, that tired me out!

Bashing-Free Thread -in honor of moderators Smile

... read it as "bathing-free thread" and thought it was a follow-up to the thread about whether or not people shower during the Nine Days.

"hiring a doppler" in the pregnancy forum

Wouldn't it make more sense to hire a doctor?
