Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an intergral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on it's evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
Props out to you and your dad, based family!
My Dad was very based.He worked at CBS as an audio tech, he told me from the beginning that any news that was televised was what they wanted me to see, that editing and cutting was all part of it.He was not bigoted but did talk about how the company was more and more taken over by Jews, that Burl Ives was a pedo, and that all media is manipulated. He also chose to not vote but he almost did, for Goldwater, because Goldwater was a fellow HAM, lol, and, he was a conservative. He was not a bible thumper, but a Christian, and whenever I was moping around thinking there was nothing to do, he told me to read the Bible.
Aw no, not Burl Ives... Good for your dad, really based. Amplify his truth to the people!
