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
So, how many of you survived the Eclipse? I hope we have everyone accounted for!

We got majorly delayed trying to get home... Maybe Waze saw we were on these pages and routed us farther out, but man we're still far from home
I need to buy a shirt that says
I survived ApocEclipes 2024
👏👏👏
I survived normies obsessing about it. I am glad it is over. for some reason, the big sun/moon events like eclipses and supermoons do not interest me even one bit..
Yet I look at the moon with my wife every single night..I obviously Love the moon but for some reason these things never excite me
I'm good. My family is good. The chickens got upset when it got dark and started running for home, then they were super confused when the sun came right back out. The dogs started their nighttime patrols when it got dark, but other than that, they weren't concerned. The bees, though...the bees were MAD when it started getting dark and their internal clocks said it wasn't time. They all came home and then there was a major traffic jam at the door.
