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.

What a day yesterday was. There are still SLEEPING DOGS out there who refuse to WAKE UP.
Yesterday while putting my 4 year old granddaughter on the preschool bus, I was wearing my TRUMP WON shirt that I got in 2020. It's a bit worn but anyway, with it I wore my TRUMP 2024 hat. Now the bus driver has seen this shirt and others I have many times, so I always thought he was perhaps one of us. A nice gentleman about my age always with a smile upon his face.
On the bus is a bus monitor and the morning monitor happens to be my granddaughters Teacher's Aide. She is definitely pro-Trump as she commented on my husbands Trump Hat he wore to school one day on Grandparents Day. When she reached out to take my granddaughters hand from mine I yelled, "WE WON, WE FINALLY BEAT THE DEVIL." to which she smiled greatly.
Then the bus driver got this angry look upon his face that I had never seen before. He yelled, "Yeah, well wait until he puts you women back in long dresses and bonnets." To which I answered, "That's not going to happen." Then he said, "I'll bet you a dollar before the month is out of his Inauguration that you will be wearing long dresses and bonnets." To which I again said, "That's not going to happen."
Now if I had been a betting woman, I should have taken him up on his bet and raised it to $1000. But I'm not. He was so mad that I actually thought he was going to jump out of the bus seat and come after me.
That's when I realized he voted for Kamala and that he is about to awaken with a Rude Awakening. I sure hope it's soon. Perhaps after Inauguration I should wear a long dress and a bonnet just for laughs. A dress with the words, TRUMP WON, on it. Kek! I don't know what gave him this idea nor what News channel he watches, but this one is a first for me.
You can tell him to donate to some patriot cause - that way you are not betting directly, and he will learn a lesson.
I should have, but you can't keep a bus sitting still in the road too long and there were a couple of vehicles behind him. And that angry look upon his face was like he had turned to someone happy into a demon instantly. You should have been there. It really scared me, but I kept my composure.
Spiritual warfare is a real thing. He is definitely oppressed by demons, who control his emotions. This is pretty awful.
It caught me off guard as he was always a happy looking man. Would have never dreamed it.
You might want to think about another way to transport your grandchild, I wouldn't trust someone like that with such a precious kid.
This is why so many of us self-censor
Whether it's with plumbers, dental hygienists, cab drivers, motor mechanics.
You just do not know who you are dealing with!
They have bus monitors (real people) who are responsible for your little ones while they are on board. Her morning one is her teachers aid and the afternoon one is another woman. After the holidays, the afternoon monitor is a man who loved to tell her how cute she is while we were waiting to get her brother off the bus when he was in preschool. He looks trustworthy too, so I don't fear anything. Kentucky don't put up with anyone messing with our children in our schools. Our schools even have double doors with a camera outside that you must look into, show your ID, state your purpose before they even open the first set of doors. Then you wait until a school official comes with a police officer to the second set of doors. We don't play around.
