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

What is Christ?
“But now ask the beasts, and let them teach you; And the birds of the heavens, and let them tell you. “Or speak to the earth, and let it teach you; And let the fish of the sea declare to you. “Who among all these does not know That the hand of the Lord has done this ?”
Job 12

I’ve got to be honest, that’s kind of jaw-dropping. Fascinating. Some of nature’s behaviors are truly amazing. God’s beautiful planet and His amazing creations are beautiful to behold. Thanks for sharing. ✝️
You’re welcome. Soli Deo Gloria !
Agreed 💯

What does it mean to take the oath of the (K)night's watch?
Does a version really exist?
What does it mean to sacrifice your entire existence for first principles, and for those you love?

I started watching a show that is over the top violent, and the usual hbo overkill with predictable sex, I fast forward the sex because , well, it's not my thing at 73, and I find it boring, like a commercial, and, it is, as I said, predictable. The fight scenes are amazing and it is full of suspense. The name of the series is Banshee, and it is good and fast and has great acting, it's a twist on good guy vs bad guy and I guess how a man tries to redeem himself because of love, but just keeps getting himself deeper into shit, as he tries to right the wrongs in a small town. It;s been out a long time and I just stumbled on it when I had a need to escape in the evening. As they say in New England, it's wicked good. It has been out long enough because it started in 2015 or 14, so I do not think you have to subscribe to anything other than maybe pay for the series, it's also on Youtube. The actor portrays the character of a manly man, but for those who are sensitive to some things, I respectfully add it probably is not everyone;s cup of tea. I just found that for some odd reason, it helped me with some depression to get out of my own head. I guess I would rate the violence and sex on par with Game of Thrones, or any "modern" depiction of crime and violence.
Lonesome Dove did, another favorite. I liked first 2 Fargo series. I will check out Korean stuff, I don't watch too many films or shows from other countries, I did watch a Brazillian series called 8% (I think), and I loved that Korean sci fi which I do not remember the name, but it had to do with a monster in a river that terrorized the beach community. It was good. There are other series I turned off after 1 or 2 episodes because of them going nowhere and just not very interesting. I tend to like shows that have that rural mystery going on, with lots of shots of landscapes and heroes dealing with inner turmoil, fighting their own demons.
wowser thank you !!!!!!!
I’m gonna check those shows out too.
There was a Korean show that had subtitles that me and my mom watched, it was kind of a romantic comedy. But it was so good, and I can’t remember the name of it. But it was awesome! It was so awesome, I watch the series myself, and then I watched it with my mom again.
Oh, I remember… What’s wrong with Secretary Kim! Highly recommend!

I would like to let you fine gentlemen and ladies know that I've been working really hard at getting in shape, and I've recently cut most of the processed junk out of my diet to great effect.
Thanks to all of the frens here who remain hopeful in spite of everything that's transpired in our world over the past several years. You guys have been very inspirational, and I enjoy reading the Bible verses you post and basking in the positivity and grace. These things would probably seem relatively insignificant to an outsider, but not to me. I am always inspired to keep moving forward and keep trying to better myself, and that little extra dose of hopium here is extremely helpful
I’m happy to hear that you are pleased with your progress. Keep up the great work!
May your temple reflect the love and honor you are giving it!

Anyone using Element Messenger? Element is based on Matrix which is an open-source alternative to Discord, Teams, Telegram and WhatsApp. I'd like to start using it so would you recommend some communities for me to join.
You can join my homeserver. It's a work in progress but I'm looking for people to join and help to grow it into a nice active community.

It's hilarious though.
That was hilarious!🤣😂
Usually it means the file is too big. You can download it and downscale it and try uploading it.
You can also try making a link post, and put the catbox link.
Sometimes I just take a screenshot of the photo, and it changes something about it that allows it to be posted. That’s my post hack.
Yup, it worked, appreciate the tip fren
Yeah, screenshot typically is within the size limit, so good hack.
First Verse:
Jeremiah 33:3
3 ‘Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.’
