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
Bonjour bonjour 🤗
How’s everyone today? The weather is rollercoastering these days: from 0 to 24 Celsius yesterday… (32-74 Fahrenheit).
Today is also Hitler’s birthday. I know it from the best Woody Allen movie: Crimes and Misdemeanors
I've always pointed that out to my stoner friends lol
If you mention you know it from a Woody Allen movie, noone can call you a Nazi.🤭
Yeah I never had a good answer to "how do you know that?"
Luckily I usually get a "you would know that" hahahaha
Great weather in the middle of the US. Just enough rain for our farmers and great garden starting weather. Onion sets and potatoes going in this week.
Stay strong frens. So many things moving in the right direction.
Good morning or afternoon to you. Weather is beautiful here. High of 87F in the south east US. Finally sleeping with just a sheet and thin quilt. Winter brings my body down! I'm so thankful for the heat!
I'm sure there's some people celebrating Hitler today. After all that's what why we are here trying to prevent that kind of world.
Good morning from the new world.
Past few days have been unseasonably warm here at 82F. Good for tomatoes, bad for lettuce.
Returning to a more normal 60F this weekend.
Stayed up too late last night working on a work puzzle (yawn) time to over-caffeinate. Oh- if the EU is going to stop selling coffee, does that mean more for the rest of us? If there's a significant price drop, I'm stocking up more!
Haven't heard this. Why would they stop coffee? We are living in strange times. I'm not a big coffee drinker, it has gone up in price just like everything.
There's a post about an EU vote to ban the sale of anything that "caused deforestation"
