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
Need some feedback please:
I've been debating making a post about a kid I grew up with. In summary, he graduated HS in the early 90's and went to Cali to become an actor. In the mid 2000's the strangest thing happened to him (and me) that makes more sense now that I know how evil unHolywood is.
He came running to me in our childhood neighborhood screaming for help, clothes torn and scratches all over his body. Calling my name, he grabbed me while I was washing my car and shook me begging for a ride. He said "they" were coming for him and he needed to get away. After he saw his stepdad running towards him and heard police sirens he ran off.
A year or so later he was dead. The following month his cousin who I also knew from school was dead also.
He was a small time actor (mostly commercials) but I can't help wonder if he stepped out of line and the cabal had him killed.
At the small risk of doxing myself, I can share more details and links (obituary) about him and his stage name and the obit for his cousin.
I'm hoping the post will provoke other Anon's to think of any strange past life experiences that didn't add up. Did someone have a FreeMason family member, a politician, a Union boss, or Mafia associate that may have been part of this giant web?
The only feedback I can provide is your suspicions sound correct and I am sorry you and him went through that.
