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
Yeah, I suppose Depeche Mode is similar to New Order, since they're both synth rock from the '80s. Since I live in Japan, my interaction with other foreigners is extremely limited. I think I'm the only unvaxxed person in my group. My wife and I are in agreement on the issue, and our daughter will get no vaccines ever again. It's about 8 years since my daughter and I got a flu shot. Never again. Meanwhile, the dipshits I had to endure during the summertime while schools were out were saying how many times they got sick from "Covid." Meanwhile, my family and i have never tested "positive." Even the one guy who should have known better got the first two jabs at his ignorant mother's insistence. I think Japan is something like 80% jabbed. At the very least, I hope real estate will become far cheaper in the coming years as the bodies hit the floor...
I think the Japanese are probably better off even if they're vaxxed, since the FDA hasn't been shoveling "enriched" cereals and an unhealthy food pyramid into either their minds or their stomachs for the last 70 years. That, plus natto, green tea and ivermectin. Wasabi might kill off a lot of bad stuff too- I wouldn't be surprised. Conformist culture probably causes other problems though ...
I think that real estate will be only a small part of the changes coming. Stay sane, and well, fren.
Yeah, conformist culture is why my daughter still wears that damned sidewalk decoration/fearmask on her face at school. She knows it's BS but she does it anyway and my wife won't back me up. I'm afraid it's killing her IQ.

It could be killing her lungs, too. Those basic masks are made from sprayed fibers and glue. The fibers come loose, she breathes them in, and 10 - 30 years later she has incurable Interstitial Lung Disease. (Look it up.)
Ouch. I feel for ya.
