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
Some of the best nights I don’t remember🤣 I prefer tequila but I’m old enough to know not to over indulge. Rum is good also. I have great memories but rarely drink anymore. Christmas Eve my daughter made me two mojitos, 4 shots total. I drank the first one slowly and had a meal. The second one you’d thought I had straw. I was feeling it but not to bad that I felt bad the next day. Probably won’t drink again for several months or at all.
I’ve never had a martini. I always thought they were cool looking with the olive. The best mojito I had was at a Cuban restaurant in Key West. My favorite used to be margaritas then I got tired of the frozen lime. Weird because I drink lime in water instead of lemon. My husband and I made them a lot for a couple years. Now I prefer on the rocks blue margaritas. My favorite drink in the Mai Tai. I ordered one with every meal in Hawaii. Since being an adult I have only drink on vacation while my daughter was small unless she was staying with my parents. We never felt like drinking around her was responsible. To each his own.
At this point in my life I’ll probably stick to olives only.
One tequila, two tequila, 3 tequila, floor.
I’ve done that a few times. Last summer I tried to prove I was still young and fun. Took one shot and was fine. Second shot I was throwing up. I’m done with shots! I was told I have gallstones so maybe that’s it.
