Meta GAF |ON| Gaf on Gaf

Can anything be done about how far out of the way some posters go to bring up SJWs and/or purple board? I'm sick of them, too - my avatar is a cheeky reminder of the day I got banned from Era - but some of the threads here are starting to read like a script. OP posts anything, reply #1 somehow relates it to woke culture, and the stage has been set for replies #2-50.

Perhaps a containment board or something? We were supposed to keep all discussion of Era inside one thread, but that kinda fizzled out.
Report them, ignore them, or just deal with it. There's not much you can do regarding what others post.

Thank you to my mystery lover whom gifted me some GAF Gold a few days ago.

I’ll have a drink in your honour as soon as I finish this drink.

(Fuck off internet. Stop tellin’ me that ‘honour’ is spelt incorrectly...)

American English must vanish with their measurements shit too🤨
Tell me about it. They act like their leading the world and yet they still measure shit with two rocks and a dinosaur bone.

“Hey bro, can you give me the length of that off cut?”

“Hang on a sec...”

Don't all of the old Commonwealth countries use some form of non-metric measurements? I know the UK and Canada mix and match too.

The US uses metric as well; why all the hate? :messenger_heart:

It’s not hate, it’s common sense.

Australia is all metric, baby.

Not sure what you’re on about with the U.S.

The first nation to adopt the metric system (a process called metrication) was France, in the 1790s. In subsequent decades and centuries, most other nations adopted it in part or in full, with notable holdouts being Liberia, Myanmar, and the United States (which primarily uses U.S. customary units).

If you can't understand freedom units, then the terrorists win.

Yeah, I did a little research. I cannot fathom whether -Arcadia- -Arcadia- is a man or a woman/boy or girl, to put it bluntly. I haven't seen anything that annoys or makes me laugh out loud. This will be a tremendous challenge for me. By midnight tonight, I will have a drawing of her/him/it.

If it helps, Arcadia is the sappiest sap that ever sapped. Also I’m pretty sure she’s a girl that used to be a boy. It’s the only way I can explain brap brap ‘s obsession.

I genuinely just kind of want to blend in and geek out, and being the center of attention like this terrifies me, even if I appreciate being thought of, lol. It is an honor to catch Bar’s attention. Maybe. Hopefully I’m far away from the Nobody Important end of the scale. : P

I’ll take it.

No, and definitely no on obsession. Lol. We started getting along because we complain about, hate, and joke about all the same things, almost. Same reason I... think I get along with you? I don’t know. Seems like a lot of agreement from me, and a lot of sarcastic brains from you. :messenger_tears_of_joy: Maybe some sarcastic brains help keep us all in line sometimes, though. You’re going to brain this, aren’t you?

Totally understand. Please accept my apology.

None needed at all, although that’s really cool. I was just half-joking about my insecurity, because I opened the thread and was like ‘Uhh...’, hahaha. Sometimes joking or talking about it helps me get over silly things, so I actually apologize for my miscommunication.

That’s a me problem, not a you problem. I still get nervous even making threads, and it’s something I have to push back on. On the contrary, it’s really nice to be thought of, and included in a community I’m still new to. : )

Ah well, I personally got a little nervous as I wasn't sure if others would find it funny or not. I was thinking of a TV soap opera only with people from Meta GAF when I made that post. =P

I like your newest thread about the behind the scenes of Death Stranding.

I’ll be honest. I’m fighting the urge to post a ‘fedora tip’ pic and a “m’lady”.

Lol.

It was. I did the triggered face for comedic effect, lol.

I’m the same way. This is probably something I shouldn’t admit, but every time I have something I think is funny, it’s a big self-debate whether to post it or not. Being that person that makes a joke that falls completely flat is just my social nightmare. : P

I know nobody actually cares, but it seems like more, doesn’t it? It’s why I can’t do those stand-up videos where they bomb, and you can literally see them dying inside. :messenger_tears_of_joy:

Ty, btw. I want to post more threads. It’s fun to contribute more directly.

I dunno why people assume my brain reactions are all sarcastic. Probably only like 10% are I’d estimate.
