Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

Funny, since I also had a similar experience with my grandad. We talked a bit about starting the work life with my little brother and we talked about the difficulties of finding junior work in some fields (graduating out of school and needing five years of experience type shit) and my grandpa just laughed. He told us about being assigned to a shipyard at 18. Then we had to laugh, because both that system and the shipyard no longer exist without my grandad really understanding that fact...
