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.

I voted early in MD. I drive past my local polling place each morning when polls open at 7. The line this morning was relatively small given it's Election Day, but the same location was hopping all during Early Voting. My area is a mostly red enclave in a purple county.
Someone on GAW asked earlier what your dream scenario would be for this Election. Besides what all of us want (Trump landslide, arrests, tribunals, etc.), I would love to see Trump not only flip Maryland, but I want to see the Senate race be too close to call, only to have Lockdown Larry lose after the mail in ballots are counted. Had he been a real Republican governor we wouldn't have mail in voting, so seeing him hoisted on his own petard would absolutely delight me.
