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
At my cabin in the Poconos I was hiking and found one pinned to a tree. They are very weird little notes. Reminds me of the Toynbee Tiles. I hadn't heard of it and I googled some of the words and got a news article with a few photos: https://www.pahomepage.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/91/2024/01/IMG_4621-1.jpg?resize=2048,1341
It's the same note, apparently they are all the same. They're finding them all over now from NYC to Atlanta. Everywhere from gas station candy bars to pinned to trees on the top of mountains at the end of a five hour hard hike.
No idea what it actually means, but it's kind of hard to read. It reminds me of my schizophrenic cousins notebooks I found after he killed himself. Just the way it's written kind of stream of conscious.
