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
Rules For the rest of the Site also accessible on the sidebar.
Election Countdown special! High quality wallpaper for your enjoyment.
Today's wallpaper is continuation of yesterday's theme Did you vote yet?
Bonus second version Why haven't you voted yet? (Only valid excuse being that you are an Aussie! ;)
(Thanks to u/Joys1Daughter for today`s theme idea)

Tell everyone you know to make sure to eat whole foods, nothing prepared ahead of time, from now till election day (and after that if they want). The warnings and recalls about tainted foods, from McDonalds to Costco, containing listeria, e coli etc should be taken carefully. We don't have Covid as a cover, but mass illness can still be a distraction as we watch the election results. Pray, and fast from processed foods, and I mean all of it, cake mixes, salami, big macs and Bob Evans, pork and beans, etc, just be careful, it would be so easy for them to taint all of the so called food in our grocery chain. Maybe I am paranoid, but at least I will not get sick.
not to mention how many illegals do work in the processed food industry, and in slaughter houses, they have direct access to our stomachs, think about it
yes, 'slaughter houses' are vile places. phasing them out will help our world tremendously 😇
