Do you still believe in one another?
 
I asked Dipu/Andy if I could make this thread and given it's posted it's likely they didn't hate it, or something. Hopefully it doesn't sound silly.

Anyway, welcome to the new winter solstice/Christmas/Hannukah/New Year's/Kwanzaa/Post-Holidays DCC! Unlike the current weather outside (unless you're an Aussie or live in South America or something), General Chat's Daily Chit-Chat has always aimed at being a warm, friendly place to drop in and post about something (or anything) interesting. Like everything though if we didn't have rules it'd be like before those Greek deities created the titans or something so bear in mind this really short list of guidelines/rules/whathaveyou before jumping into the pool:
  1. Check the topic at hand, and unless it's dead or something go with the flow of the current topic. You can reply to a dead topic if you're interested though, but don't go bringing up past conversations or anything.
  2. Be sure to follow PC's main rules. The people upstairs would get really mad if we were anarchists about forumming, so you gotta listen to what they have to say about... things... ahem. Don't take this one lightly.
  3. Until the siege for the 4/25 rule is over, you still have to follow it, no exceptions. Sorry if you have a GIF or something, we'll feel bad for you though. We'd almost sort of probably agree with you on that, most likely. Don't quote us on that.
  4. Just as a reminder, don't be a meanie to others about things. If you disagree with something really strongly put it in Notepad or on a blog, not here.


Soooooo... how were the holidays for everyone? Who got socks from their grandparents? lol

maccrash December 23rd, 2014 4:13 PM

SO MY NAME IS MACCRASH AND I'M POSTING FIRST IN THE NEW GENERAL CHAT DCC.....

HOW DO I FEEL? REALLY GOOD ABOUT IT

AND MY GRANDMOTHER'S PROBABLY GOING TO GET ME LIKE JEANS OR SOMETHING

ALSO THIS IS MY 1,111TH POST WHICH FEELS BOTH SYMBOLIC AND INCREDIBLY DISAPPOINTING THAT I WASTED MY 1,111TH POST ON THIS SHIT

Hikamaru December 23rd, 2014 4:16 PM

My first post in the new DCC!

So uh, we only just got the snacks for the Christmas lunch. My family are always late when it comes to these, but at least I have something better if one hasn't read my latest blog post yet.

Alexander Nicholi December 23rd, 2014 4:19 PM

:3

My mother's friend Kris is thinking of getting me a Visa/MasterCard gift card for Christmas, which would accompany the keyboard I'm getting from my mother as well as money for a mouse. And I have my RAM chip as well. \o/

Speaking of which, I'm going to take a break and write some poetry. Those are my gifts.

Sheep December 23rd, 2014 4:21 PM

omg new dcc hi

Still no Christmas tree.. guess there won't be one in the house this year. D: Though I know mom's just getting us prepaid cards loaded with some money since she has absolutely zero clue on what everyone wants, lol.

Poki December 23rd, 2014 4:21 PM

I know how you feel, my family never puts our tree up these days because we're lazy.

Pokestick, good times. December 23rd, 2014 4:31 PM

Long time no DCC!

Christmas is in going strong. Got a tree, got wrapped gifty things, got cheesy christmas music.




No snow though.

Alexander Nicholi December 23rd, 2014 4:42 PM

oh my god is the anticensor not fucked anymore? :D


yussssss

Her December 23rd, 2014 4:44 PM

is it customary to make new dccs so frequently now

Alexander Nicholi December 23rd, 2014 4:56 PM

I've always liked the idea of having a new DCC a few days before Christmas, as IMO refresting the DCC adds to the newness and novelties of the holidays in general. We wouldn't want an old and crusty DCC to give us the Christmas blues, would we?

It's good for the time of the year, at least I think so.

Pokestick, good times. December 23rd, 2014 4:58 PM

It does feel strangely comfy already, so you might be on to something.

Sir Codin December 23rd, 2014 4:59 PM

You can now choose to have things uncensored now, but don't overdo it.

And for fuck's sake, use your words properly and only when necessary. Just because you can see the word "asshole" now doesn't mean you're allowed to call someone that. The Mods will still slap you with a disrespect to members card, unless on the off-chance that the mods democratically decide that the person you are insulting is indeed an asshole and even then, that's rare.

Yukari December 23rd, 2014 5:15 PM

Being able to see all that profanity is going to take some getting used to.

But it's better then seeing Pokemon names instead.

Aisu December 23rd, 2014 5:54 PM

I want to catch that damn Primal Kyogre in Alpha Sapphire for Christmas.

El Héroe Oscuro December 23rd, 2014 6:01 PM

Once everyone gets over this initial wave of "omg I swear now" I can see the use of them dying down tremendously. That being said I'm still pretty happy that we got the censor removed.

I tried to get cottonheadedninnymuggins added to the censor list but I was outvoted ):

I just saw that movie for the first time this past week, haha. Not bad but I'm not sure if I'll add it to my normal holiday rotation every year. Had some funny moments though.

That was the first time you've watched Elf?! Well...I mean better late than never I suppose. I'm quite disappointed in you though for waiting so long to watch it till now tsk tsk.

What was your favorite part?

maccrash December 23rd, 2014 6:23 PM

first of all I've seen Elf like 600 times at this point.

second of all my band covered a lot of songs 2nite and I recorded them with my shitty iPhone speaker. should I post em

As long as it doesn't sound like a blown out speaker, then go for it.

Alexander Nicholi December 23rd, 2014 7:17 PM

Elf is great. Ugh, but I haven't seen it in a long time, so I can't remember a whole lot of my favorite moments...

I really like Gladiator and King Arthur though. I need to watch the former a few more times so it's not as emotionally heavy. Or maybe I need to not be so depressive, I dunno. Both are legendary movies about legendary legends, and also... Hans Zimmer. He always makes good music, I like to think of him as a Beethoven of our time.

Aisu December 23rd, 2014 8:09 PM

I never saw the movie Elf before.

I want your stuff packed and out by the morning.

Ruma December 23rd, 2014 9:37 PM

Elf is pretty funny, but it isn't really a favourite. My favourite holiday movies are probably the old Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, and A Christmas Story. A Christmas Story is freaking great, man.

I have seen it waaaaay too many times now.

Immediate family every year since release in our holiday rotation. But then when visiting extended family... it's a movie that appeals to everyone and very little kids love it, so it comes up a lot. I'm awfully sure it's going to be playing Christmas Eve and Day when I'm visiting people
