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.

For those where the rain has hampered your big holiday plans, may I suggest one of the following for your viewing pleasure:
Band of Brothers - WW2 European Theatre of war
The Pacific - WW2 Japanese Theatre of war
If you haven't ever watched these, you're missing out. They're truly a masterpiece.
I'm thinking of watching some of the original V made for TV mini-series (1983)
I haven't watched it since it first came out in 1983...dear lord am I REALLY that old now?!
The classic story follows an alien invasion of Earth and spans a two-part miniseries, a three-part miniseries, and one regular season with 19 episodes. There's a 2009 adaptation too, but I'm skipping that for now...
FYI Bitchute appears to have ALL 1983-1984 content available... search "V series" & "V Final Battle" to find everything - yanno... for free
Also... Since AI is so prevalent these days... and people just LOVE all the fear prawn associated with it, why not crank it up a notch with the absolutely well done SciFi series: Battlestar Galactica from 2004-2009. "...following the remnants of humanity fleeing Cylon (AI) robots in a ragtag fleet." This one has it ALL - Action, Thrills, Romance and an Intense storyline that will keep you glued to your seat..high and dry. It's REALLY well done! (You can watch Caprica too if you want the prequel to BSG's main story)
Cheers frens!
