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.

My late mother bequeathed shares of stock to my daughter that have exponentially increased in value since POTUS came into office. The value is now enough that they can buy their first house without a mortgage. The reason why she hasn’t sold it yet was the amount of tax she would have to pay. With the BBB becoming effective beginning with the New Year, we were thinking the tax bite might not seem so bad. The problem is how do we sell it for the needed cash. My investment advisors have all retired or died and there’s no one I trust to help with this transaction. Is there anyone in NE Ohio who can help or offer sound advice?
Hey, has anyone here tried ''red light therapy''? My buddy got an array of red LED lights that he claims has health benefits.
I use red light therapy for inflammation and anxiety and when needed it's been a blessing.
I haven’t tried it mainly because it’s expensive. There’s not a place near me that offers it. I’m hesitant about LED lights. There’s a lot of claims they are very unhealthy. I’d love to get incandescent bulbs but can’t find them. Getting in the sun with out spf has great multiple benefits. “They” don’t want us in the sun because it’s healthy. If you use spf it blocks the benefits. I use SPF only if I’m out several hours and use natural zinc based.
How is everyone enjoying their Christmas break? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=edwk-8KJ1Js
My God you guys! I take a day off and the Don drops off a load of late Christmas presents. u/#pepenuke
What's with all the Franklin memes? It looks like they started around the beginning of the month? The Franklin author doesn't like them. KEK! What else?
I think some military branch posted a franklin meme a couple weeks ago and it took off. Too bad if the author doesn't like them!
They usually don't. I actually got in an argument with my liberal brother in law about twisted sister when DJT was playing 'we're not gonna take it' at rallies. 😂
Galatians 4:4-7
But when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law, 5 to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons. 6 And because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, “Abba! Father!” 7 So you are no longer a slave, but a son, and if a son, then an heir through God.
But the unitarians would have me believe Jesus wasn't God. Almost as if they were wrong (again).
