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

I don't know about the rest of the country, but here in NY, gas prices have dropped to below $3/gallon! Just in time for election day. Coincidence?
I saw $2.71 today in NC. Agreed dropping prices attempt to get dem votes. Sadly many will fall for the BS because the news told them. My mil said, she despises Trump but voted for him. I asked why do you hate him. Because he says such vulgar rude things about people. My husband, who isn’t down the rabbit hole like me, said the dems talk way worse about Trump. I finally said we won’t ever agree on this! Funny my fil loves Trump. He got a MAGA hat & yellow vest just to take a picture😆
According to dad my mom finally dropped this nonsense attitude after he got her to watch the Joe Rogan interview.
I’m glad she came around. I don’t expect it with many of my in laws. I’ve heard so many podcasters or Christian videos saying a large percentage of regular church republican members don’t vote.
