Chat room (let's chat!) šŸ’¬ (Part 1)

Iā€™ve considered this site my ONLY ā€˜home away from homeā€™ net-wise. I donā€™t like seeing folks banned, but also I can understand. Rules are rulesā€¦period. No one asked anyone to ā€˜please join our siteā€™. Weā€™ve all came here on our own, Iā€™d simply say if anyone wants to continue coming here, observe the rules, and all is wellā€¦
What I just said might not be popular to some, but it needā€™s being said, as a reminder, if nothing else. Iā€™ve been just as guilty as some, and more-so than others. Butā€¦I AM trying to keep things like my obvious breaches in mind going forward.

Iā€™ve done some truly weird and dangerous things while asleepā€¦

When the wife and me first got together, lol She woke me up one night with a strange gurgling soundā€¦ I had her in a headlock and was fixing to break her neck. I was dream/reliving a fight in Namā€¦
that was scaryā€¦for us both! But my dreams have calmed way down over the years.

damn, ainā€™t it strange how a couple words from someone can make you remember shit? Iā€™d forgotten all about thatā€¦

Iā€™m not really ā€œinā€ the hobby, my pops had one, and well, i might still be tweaking it and playing a bit, lol, yeah theres still a lil kid in all of usā€¦ but sadly the value of alot of what we had as kids is nothing, unless its to a sentimental buyer. I dont buy or sell the trains, its whatever my pops had from 1979, but the prices for some things are astounding (can buy a CAR instead). Sadly, thats not usually what most of us have lol. I thought of selling off these and realized theres more value in the nostalgia at the moment than dumping em for pennies.

Donā€™t do it! youā€™ll be stuck with em forever! lol. Growing up mom always got one for pops and one for me. had literally over 20 years, mint in box. Barely get $5-$10 for most, and remember you were paying $12 in the 70ā€™s and upwards of $24 a truck in the late 90sā€¦ I STILL have 3 or 4 that go out at every garage sale, and one of these days is just gonna be left for free at the curbā€¦

Yah, FB is the ā€œHey! look at ME!ā€ place, but for the most part I dont follow all that crap, I use it to keep in touch with family, HS / College / Travelling friends mainly, like actually message and communicate, not ā€œfollow their wall, see what was for lunch yesterdayā€ā€¦ It really depends on whoā€™s using it, and howā€¦ The model RR forums are strictly a requirement of me trying to grow a businessā€¦ and even there I donā€™t shill stuff, its more for ideas and a finger on the pulse of what people want / are looking for and canā€™t findā€¦ As social media, why the F do I care what you had for lunch every day for the past year, and 250 selfies in the same spot from different angles? nope, boring! but the people I am friends with, I regularly talk withā€¦ ya follow?

Iā€™m starting to get cozy here myself, and I agree 100%ā€¦ I just want this place to be a chill and welcoming place, where yes, knowledge is shared, categorized, easily found, and where like minded people can relax and get to know each other a bit before jumping in sometimes. Not everybody just wants to post a pic to a public forum asking for help without lurking or even participating in other threads at timesā€¦ Some of us have no problem posting 100 pics in the first journal postā€¦ Point being, if we relax, step back and smoke a nice fatty, common ground is there the be found and weā€™ll all be happyā€¦ I cant say what OG was like a year or two ago as I wasnt an active member, but I can say it has been chill since I started, but recently I am wondering how many of you aint had a good phatty on the back deck latelyā€¦

Ok. soā€¦ happier chat topicā€¦ When youā€™re working on your babies, do you listen to music, have the tv on in background, enjoy the sounds of nature / silence of the fans. Gotta say, I listen to musicā€¦ the Grateful Deadā€™s ā€œAmerican Beautyā€ is in constant rotation, because that album, my babies, Iā€™m in a very happy placeā€¦

What say the rest of you???

And honestly, the rules arenā€™t even that strict in comparison to other types of forumsā€¦

You sound like one of my cats :laughing:

My best friend when staying over at his girlfriendā€™s parents house when he was in his early twenties for a party, thought it would be drunkenly funny to drop a deuce in the cat box before he passed out.

He awoke to a scene he wasnt expecting.

His girlfriend and mother sitting at the kitchen table, waiting for the dad to call from the veterinarianā€™s office where they had rushed the cat on a Sunday morningā€¦

Needless to say, they didnā€™t work out as a couple.
