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

Just watched "For a few dollars more" great movie 🍿🍿🍿
I find a lot of spaghetti westerns very watchable even with the "bad" sound effects. Am I getting old?
I love anything with Clint Eastwood. Dirty Harry movies and really good.
Dirty Harry, Do You Feel Lucky

The way they used music on this one is really something.
I like old kung fu movies BECAUSE of the bad sound effects. It’s funny.
What are your thoughts on Robert F Kennedy Jr? I've listened to him a little and I like most of what he says. I'm planning on watching his interviews with Joe Rogan. Some of his opinions I'm not sure about. I've voted democrat only once in my for Jim Hunt NC governor other that always republican. I was a huge Bush supporter till I learned about that family. I'm still team Trump and can't see me voting against him.
Do you think he's legit?
Define legit.
That said, if you are asking whether someone is controlling him I am betting to some extent someone is, but more in terms of toning him down over the years so that he doesn't get taken out.
I think his passion about childhood vaccines is well placed, and his research seems to be impeccable. As a presidential candidate, he is exactly the kind of guy you would see running in a free country devoid of all external interferences and without Cabal control.
And by that, I mean a person with many decent ideas, and some that are completely unpalatable for at least some part of the population. In a real free world, this is what elections would be for - so people can figure out the compromises they need to make between each other in a society where everyone has their own unique opinions.
By legit I mean is he a bunch of hot hair riding on the Kennedy name or does he believe everything he's saying? I appreciate you answering. You bring up a lot of good points. Mainly I asked because he seems to know a lot about the assassinations. I been saying to my family I believe he knows more than we do about this. On the other hand I hear a lot of promises just like most politicians.
My gut has been saying he believes at least some of what he has been saying, consistently for years, and I felt that way even before he stood for president.
So many people wonder why democrats don’t care about ole’ evil jo’s health; why will they vote democrat? I came to understand that democrats genuinely do not consider this country a republic. They look at it as a democratic socialist state with a president that is nothing more than a figurehead. It’s the same reason they don’t care about a old ass king or a old ass queen over in England.
It is a true democracy, where the elites vote to decide what happens to the country next.
I would like to know why there is a rule to not post direct links to Instagram?
We allow links to be posted to every other platform. Twitter, TikTok, Facebook, and one of the worst places Reddit.
I would just like to know why. That’s all. Thanks! 😁
u/catsfive
Agreed! I didn't know there was a rule against posting Instagram links. I've posted insta links occasionally and it because it's the only social media I visit. Honestly I've learned a lot from inta accounts posting on the hot topics, Covid, vax, 911, trafficking, satanic worship, WHO, and everything other thing that's been discussed over the past three years. Sure there's false information on instagram as well as other social media sites. I don't take anything at face value and do my own research. Either allow instagram or ban all social media. Just my opinion.
Yeah, well nothing makes sense in this world anymore. Rules for rules.Lol!
True Dat! Told my husband recently I'd like to go back to the 70s or 80s with my life as it is and my family. Maybe because I was a kid and teenager I thought the world made sense. It's likely adults during that time had the same thoughts, nothing makes sense.
At the showing of Sound of Freedom near me, they had set up a table with resources on child exploitation and how to volunteer, support their efforts exc.. did the theater’s where you live do the same? Just curious
Nope not here. I wish they had!
We own a little store in the country, gas station, hardware, pizza shop, exc.. Every morning the old regular’s show up for coffee and tell the same stories for the hundredth time. I brought up The Sound of Freedom and used it to talk about child trafficking. The old guy’s said it’s happening in the county our store is in, here in Kentucky. I then said, “probably Free Mason’s” and that old man said to me, “How did you know that?”, I was floored, the evil is everywhere.
I bet you surprised those old men. A few weeks ago I was at a cookout with family and friends. I got to talking to one lady and she was aware of the trafficking. She said my local town is a hot bed. I wasn't surprised because the city government has let the gangs rule for two decades. It was starting to get bad in the 80s and now we don't go anywhere in town with out a gun. I try not to shop at Walmart especially alone. There's certain areas I'd never go in. So I could see trafficking is hot here. Trafficking probably makes more profit.
My house is in Louisville ky, we got the store because she was team driving a semi- truck with me and wanted a change, I wanted a bug-out location in the country “I didn’t tell her that”. I understand exactly what you are saying. Indianapolis is huge as is Cleveland, but in the country with locals that may be sitting next to you in church. It’s some real Steven King shit. My grandfather went to war with the KKK in the 50’s and 60’s because he stood with his black workers. I’m told a few never went home after messing with him. I wish some things were as they used to be.
I've been to Kentucky around Pikeville for concerts and driven through a few times as a child and adult. I want to take a trip and explore KY. It's a beautiful state. I'm in eastern NC. It's pretty normal country people in the rural area but we have too many on welfare or just not working and selling drugs. It's safe as long as stay away from the older parts of the cities. Nothing new it's just worse.
I've always been non trusting and I'm way worse since learning about pedos and trafficking. We have our first grandchild and I'm thankful I'm aware evil is hiding in plain sight. Growing up we were told the devil is everywhere. I don't think people of my grandparents generation had a clue how true that is.
Stay safe fren🐸 & enjoy the local old men gossiping.
So they want to ban conversion therapy
Any thoughts of a conversion therapy alternative to mean something like child genitalia mutilation therapy ask them: "oh,, but you're perfectly fine with <our new ___ therapy term>?"
Since people want content, I'm going to uh... Put some stuff out there. Maybe inappropriate, maybe not. Mods?
Anyway, ex computer haxx0r type here, been out of it more than a decade. Really, really been out of it for 5 years.
All my machines are old and running windows 7. I love and adore windows 7 but there's a coordinated movement right now by all major applications to stop 7 support. So, I need to upgrade to w10.
Last time I fiddled with ... ISOs 🏴☠️... was W7. It was easy enough but there were a few deactivators and tools I used. Still have them backed up.
I will be needed to get some new Legitimate Copies of W10. But I'm curious how good the activation permanency is, etc. I have one or two extra systems to fiddle on, but not a lot of time to hack around and less patience.
Anyway, I'm sure this is still EZPZ, but some thoughts or suggestions would go a long way to getting me off my ass to do this. It needs to be done here...
And please, I know it's funny to say "Install Nix". I can, I have, and I have no desire to do so right now. ♥️
Aye aye.
From an old hacker who has been out of the game long long ago, my gut feeling is that while technically you can fiddle with w10, I dont think it will be permanent. There is too much cloud interaction constantly, and you will probably need to patch multiple binaries all in one go for it to hold. You will spend plenty of time just figuring out which binaries, and then for each binary what to patch. If you do it, good luck, it will be a fun adventure!
Just google windows 10 pro key and buy a key. The gray market keys never get deactivated.
And I do not blame you on linux...massively overrated and that is coming from someone who has tried a lot of distros
I only like puppy for troubleshooting or force booting old systems
The address on the driver's license for Spongebob Squarepants is 124 Conch Street, Bikini Bottom.

If you type this into Google Maps, it comes up with...Little Saint James Island of Jeffrey Epstein fame.
https://www.google.com/maps/place/Little+Saint+James/@18.3004292,-64.8278607,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x8c051168c4c9f33d:0x4b2c4e6907c7bce7!8m2!3d18.3002113!4d-64.8251647!16s%2Fm%2F03h2bhh?entry=ttu
This made me very sad
Funny, I tried typing that address in google maps and it listed a couple of hits with St James Island at the top (but the address itself wasnt present). I tried around changing the address a bit to see what else hits, after a bit, even this address stopped hitting St James Island ... 🤔
Probably someone "inside" trying to share a bit without getting whacked!
I saw the Sponge Bob/Epstein address on instagram a couple months ago. Not much shocks me anymore but this did. Maybe because as an adult I loved that cartoon. Even took my daughter to the movie.
That is very sad, but for years, the LGBT community’s been trying to make a cartoon gay. It’s so stupid when they do that. They’re not real, they’re not real people.

From a newbie: The reason I don't come here to this thread hardly ever is that it seems a waste of time. There's no topic and the discussions are just one or two sentences about random stuff. In looking at the rules it says to keep it light no heavy stuff. Well these are heavy times. I just thought I'd give some feedback as many frens seem disappointed with the lack of participation here.
Oh man, dont fall for that! Its just a running joke that some .. ahem ... silly anons have been posting as soon as the thread is created, because, you know, sense of 'umor!
I believe the purpose of general chat is to comment about non Q related content. I see general chat as like minded community that wants to connect with their peers. It can be serious topics or BS. It's not like there's not enough post that might be "on topic" we can post on. I personally like it because it's a stress reliever and I like learning people's personalities and about their daily lives. I've binged Facebook and instagram many years ago getting zero connection to people I actually know in real life. I feel like I know many here better than my friends I grew up knowing or new friends. Edited: After reading my post I was a little mean, sorry about that. Didn't intend to be mean.
Thanks for sharing. Your response didn't seem mean to me either.
Sure fren🐸 Maybe you read before I edited. I have a tendency to pounce and ask questions later. Much better than I used to be.
The thread used to be where rooftoptendie would probe us on our preferences regarding balloon animals and what kind of french fries we would eat forever if all we could eat was french fries
🤣 glad I missed that. I prefer daily questions and hearing about people's garden and other passions.
Hahaha...snooze!
Yes, some more times that people post of they’re disappointed. When they come here, the more we mock them. I have ongoing threads every day here, regarding being disappointed. It’s hilarious actually. We’ve all grown into some type of camaraderie over this disappointment posts.
It’s some of the best part of my day to be perfectly honest. Just thinking about it I’m just appointed. 😂🤣
Anyway, on the serious point here. Yes there’s plenty of conversation here. Just depends on what time of day you show up.
But if you show up immediately after the daily chat is posted, you’re going to see a bunch of people posting about how disappointed they are because there’s nothing here to talk about. Basically… The post is only up seven minutes, and how disappointed we all are.
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Thanks for explaining the running joke. Figured it was something like that and an inside joke. Just shows if you miss a few weeks how much you actually miss. Seriously, I was thinking some people had gone over the edge.
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 I don’t know what this means when I tell you this…
but this is the best, and brightest part of my day. I get such a kick out of this, and I get a good belly laugh! Thanks for being my FREN!🐸
Also, thank you for firing your staff are! Because that directly affected me! Perhaps we can move on now to new levels of disappointment?
I think it’s time we might need to organize a zoom meeting for everyone who’s disappointed.
Oh never mind - I just described a bunch of liberals. KEK!
🙏🐸💕
It's taken on a life of its own, the disappointment. hahahaha
DISAPPOINTED! 😩
That was hilarious!

In this episode we speak with my friend and brother in Christ, Daniel Russell. Daniel and I got introduced through a mutual friend within the ministry, Army of Love. In this episode, we hear Daniel's powerful testimony of growing up in a Christian family and how the enemy tried to sever his relationship with Christ on multiple occasions. We hear Daniel's account of how Jesus never stopped fighting for him both spiritually and physically, even to the point of Daniel's near-death experience on a mission trip. We then hear about Daniel's current position within the ministry, Army of Love, a ministry that helps heal and transform broken hearts through our Lord, Jesus Christ. It is fitting how Daniel's walk through spiritual warfare led him to an "army" of Christ fighting to spread the light, love, and truth of Jesus.
Thank you for tuning in! Together through Christ we have endless potential.

God bless you for carrying on. I don't get nearly any quiet time these days to listen to my own thoughts, much less pods, but when I see you grinding it brings me Joy and reminds me to keep on my own walk with Christ. In fact, I'm going to focus on that today because I saw this.
So much love to you, brother. 🙏♥️
Aww thanks for the kind loving words my fren. God bless u and love you to my fren
I’m gonna be watching this today. I just wanted you to know… Now we know why… All of the attacks! Because you continue to give testimony of Christ’s success, and other peoples lives. Lots of love to you, and will be praying for you and your family.
Aww thanks sis. Yeah they can try there best but I am not giving up. God has got me. Thanks for the prayer, means the world to me. Love u to sis
I found some local unfiltered and ever so dark and rich honey and it is amazing. We hope to get into beekeeping someday.
Mmmmm!!! Sounds delicious!
You start selling honey I will buy
I'd love to try it one day. I need a job to help pay for it.
We've tried and will try again but be aware of neighbors who get chemical treatments for their properties, lawns etc- these are the same folks who then complain they never see butterflies anymore, etc...
There are weed companies constantly around. That would be a huge disadvantage!
Speaking of weeds...crab grass has really taken off this year and I have been trying to pull up what I can instead of spraying, but it's too much!
Yesterday, I left my home office computer for a minute.
I usually leave a text editor opened so my cat don’t climb on the keyboard and mess stuff up.
As I was in the little boys room, my phone rings: a colleague explained me the group was called for a video conference by me and all they could see was my cat rubbing her back on my laptop.🥳
I then realized these HP piece-of-junk have a touch screen.
How do I deactivate…. That yet is another question.🤓
u/Mary911 👉🏻 you may enjoy the anecdote 🤗💐
Now that's funny. My desktop has a touchscreen too but I don't use it. Thank God Izzy is too old to reach it. Haha. She'd probably be emailing her doggie friends.
I’m sorry but this is hilarious. Cat zoom meeting.
Don’t be sorry, Fren: this made everyone’s day.🤩
I laughed out loud, thank you for sharing. This is why I like general chat, it makes me feel like I'm having coffee with my frens.
🤣 That story is hilarious!
It really is. 😅
He even got around the open text editor trick. Dannnnng. I can relate.
No idea on the touchscreen OP - shouldn't be difficult.
We always suspected that clever cat to be intelligent rather than deaf: she notices sounds but only reacts if it’s in her interests. Really mischievious but also really loving. She’s be 13 in October, as her twin sister which is more like a baby in need of arms to carry and pat her.
Sounds like part of an insidious plot, keep an eye on that feline.
We had a dog that actually did go deaf in his old age. He could read lips and would always keep turning his head around to make sure you were still behind him.
But a cat that pretends to be deaf? That's just too funny!
Chonchon is one in a billion, you can catch a little of her here: https://youtu.be/4DaL_qggxpQ 🤓
She's adorable! Love the cream-colored coat, is her twin that color, also?
I can just imagine the mayhem she might cause amongst the many electronic boards! 🤪
Well, until she videoconfs with you…🤭
Yes, both are Devon Rex and « pathologically white », plus eventual dust.
Devon Rex are described as « monkeyish rather than tigerish », clever and affectionate.🤗
Never heard of them, not that I'm real knowledgeable about cat breeds, so I looked them up.
Looked up pictures, too. Love the big ears on the little face! They sound like an awesome cat to have. 💖🐈
A cat can be deactivated by various means - some more effective than others. But the Greek philosophy is not to allow an animal inside the house in the first place. This solves a lot of potential problems before they happen.
Churlishness checks out. 😁🤗
this gave me the biggest DAAAAYYYYMMM moment i've ever had from twitter. https://twitter.com/ateenyalien/status/1678821024530329606
I'm white as a ghost and that sister is way whiter than me.
Lame. Lol.
so crazy!
Well, I'm no longer being disappointed with the Gen Chat not being full of discussions within 7.3 minutes of launch. I cannot do it anymore. I'm out.
Being disappointed with General Chat's general chat is so... so.... Ron Desantis Adjacent.
Instead, I shall be disappointed that the Mods and the Pedes do such a good job at keeping the shills locked down. Hey, if I have to be disappointed in something, I'll choose that.
Either that, or fag-fagging. There needs to be more fag fagging around here. I'm looking at you, pepesee.
i'm not sure if giving the world 'Ron Desantis Adjacent' is a gift or crime. 🤣
uh, oooh.
I find that comment so... so.... Chris Christie Adjacent.
Ps. I'm still not sure if Ron Desantis is a gift or a crime.
you are the wind beneath my wings.
u/#wideputin
Lol.
Also, as a pretty strictly "morning shift" guy, I'd like to chime in that I'm very happy that GC is always filled with stuff by the time I roll in. Gives me stuff to comment on, and since I rarely have anything to share, I don't get frustrated that I've missed the prime commenting window.
So there, smart ass. ♥️🤗
Updoogle for 'smart ass'.
I think we need to discuss the lack of discussion!
And engage about the lack of engagement
I might get disappointed, though, if nobody participated in, what would be, an engaging discussion of that!
Well, that’s obvious… To engage. 😂🤣
Might sound something like this! 😄
That is hilarious! 😂🤣😂🤣
ENGAGE!
We will then participate in a discussion about the lack of participation.
🤣🤣🤣 You win!
Now you're getting into the swing of things!
Fag fagging, look no further than Justin Trudeau and Zelensky. The perfect duo. Really, we can't make this stuff up.
Add Macron and try not to imagine them sandwiching in front of the powdered Bidens.
Ugh! Now that's some stuff I wouldn't want to imagine any of the three of them. But seriously, you can't make this stuff up.
We'll, that took my appetite completely away even for more coffee
Sorry, I told you NOT to imagine that.🤓
I’ll raise you one disappointment level!
This is high stakes!
🤣😂🤣😂
Ps. I’ve been able to avoid the dogs being disappointed. I don’t know how much longer I can hold on, though.
Hang in there. We need you to. Remember!
I must add to my last comment.
I’m currently watching a standard poodle. As much as I just like this breed, this dog is perpetually, happy, upbeat, and basically retarded. This dog couldn’t be disappointed, even if I tried to force it on it. Of course I would never do that. Lol! My best friend is a dog trainer, they refer to it as poodle brain. No disappointment in this dog whatsoever. I can report.
Thanks Fren 🥲
Never thought I would live to see the day when Van Houten was released, yet here it is. Sad commentary on society. Another example of evil now walks among us.
I didn't know that the fuckin green river was dead!
Why isn't this thread full with activity? Is GAW dying?? I thought this was a Q research board
(Someone needs to sidebar an official copypasta)
It’s just a constant disappointment. I’ll be coming back tomorrow to check so I can be disappointed again.
Snap.
Another one bites the dust.
And another one down, and another one down another one bites, the dust.
