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 integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its 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
I've always been under the impression that "luck" is perspective based and isn't a consistent thing you can show. Give a guy a glass of water in the desert, and he'll get on his hands and knees and start praying. Give him one in the middle of a hurricane, and he'll probably get pissed off about it.
good one/there was a Q drop with a great video/had a Rush song, but I can't remember how to find it
There's no supernatural luck.
Just quantum randomness and probability distribution.
Except for the Irish. They have luck, both good and bad. And it can't be explained by science! Maybe they make their own luck, I dunno. Haven't figured out the folk from the emerald isle.
^^^ there's a thousand ways to say it but that sums it up. No luck, perspective.
I know how to be abased, and I know how to abound. Everywhere and in all things I have learned both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
