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 evolving
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
NC pedes, does anyone else remember that the car registration stickers changed color each year? Please?
Seems like stickers were red like the old license plate, red letters. Several years ago they started changing the colors. I think to help law enforcement verifying expired tags.
Thank you, someone else remembers colors! Right now everything is white and everyone around me is telling me they've always been white. Even though I clearly recall a condescending lecture from my beloved a few years ago about how of course they're differently colored so the cops can easily tell if one is expired (because I half-joked about not renewing at the plandemic because we weren't driving anywhere). Possible Mandela effect?
We have never purposely not renewed but forgot a few times and for months drove around with expired tags, luckily no tickets.
Looks like in 2017 they went to white and may have stayed that way. Doesn't include the last few years, but gives you most of what I think you're looking for.
