This is what I had to listen to in the car tonight on the way back from Manhattan, and it was a 2 hour trip!
"Chabadskers"
"Yat Kislev"
"I don't know how to say this; but when the Rebbe was alive" etc.
"They don't know how to sing Niggunim"
Son: "Totty, what does Lubavitch do today on Yat Kislev"?
Father: "eh, who cares"!
Man in back seat: The shluchim are in all far-flung places and they struggle BeRuchnius and BeGashmius, it's mamesh a pele! They have such Koyches!
Father: "Yeeees, but they do a lot of harm in Russia to other groups who work there."
MIBS: "why is that"?
Father: "They're Amiratzim".........
And all this from a man in his 60's, a scion of many Chasidishe dynasties, although his education came from -------------------
You guessed it, Yeshivas Rabbeinu Chaim Berlin!
Go speak to such people...............
And all the while the Tzig sat there and didn't say a word!

Tzig:Are you an Ish emmes? If you are, what kinds of things do Chabadskers say about menagdim and others?Similar, right?If so, what is your 'tayna'
I do agree that it would have been nice if you had discussed the weather or some other pareve subject.I'm curious, what you were doing stuck in such a scenario:Transit strike?If so the guy was actually doing you a favour, by giving you a hitch

That last comment (#3), was by me, hemshech from comment #1).

You're right, but look! 2 can play that game. The question is; who came first, the chicken or the egg?
Transit strike, and that ---- TWU! that's what did it to me! so he was doing me a favor, not to mention he was losing his mind in the traffic....
Tzig
you're to be commended for keeping your cool and thus making a Kiddush Hashem. He will eventually learn of what he did and he'll be embarrassed to pieces.
Tzig,
Face it, you're a sell-out.
You didn't jhave to fight with the guy, but you could have had a rational conversation and made a real Kiddush Hashem - instead of hiding under your fedora.
Fedora? what Fedora? I was wearing my Dashik, albeit a fake Italian one.
Next time you sit 1 foot away from a guy whose losing his mind in an endless traffic jam, and argue with him. Who knows what he might have done? You never know with CB'ers!
