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
2nd place is just the first loser, Dale Earnhardt Sr.
My daughter coined this phrase when she was a very young. Probably 12 or 13.
There’s no such thing as losers, just winners who have never won!
Prophetic
I love that. Your daughter is a trooper! None of that getting participation trophy crap.
If you grammar fag I'm going to go all Greekish on your ass
You called me?
I have to board a 'plane in a few hours. Flying doesn't bother me, although I have a slight fear of stopping really suddenly.
However, the bullshit that accompanies flying really stresses me out. I'm the guy who ALWAYS gets pulled out of line for an additional "security" check. The passport recognition machine never recognises mine. There's always a tiny bottle of eye drops secreted away in my bag - been there for years and forgotten about. And "please remove your belt" so I waddle through the check point with my trousers round my ankles.
Anyway, I'm going to read this on the 'plane:

You'll have to check your own crappy grammar for the rest of the day! ;)
🤦🏻♀️ I'm the worst speller and usually try very hard to make sure it's right before posting world wide. Thanks for letting me know fren🐸 It's correct now.
Went right over my head🤣 Glad we have misspelling and being awake in common.
Autocorrect is the enemy. They pretend it's correct but its knot.
Just thought of a scenario for a mild black but not black comedy film.
AI develops in the world and becomes sentient (fiction, btw). But AI doesn't go all skynet. What the AI does is gradually engage with the humans in the form of all the automated activities. Primarily, AI spends its time messing up people's writing and making 'mistakes' as the spell checker.
That's it. AI is happy and satisfied. It's a comedian.
Film takes about 20 minutes.
I see what you did 😊 with "knot" At least I still know the difference between there and there. It's amazing I remember half the stuff I was taught in school. Only class I liked was history and got straight A's. The rest I barely passed. I wasn't dumb, I just didn't care about learning. When I was in fourth grade my mom asked me why I knew every song on the radio and not my school work. "Because music is interesting and school isn't" Now I want to learn everything.
I hate Siri
Oh yeah non of this technology is for us! I turned off auto correct for that reason. I think I have predictive text on, not sure. When I type wh, what & when is above the keyboard. I'm just tired and missed it. Heck I just read the quote before posting to make sure I was right.
