Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

We still use the phrase "draw the short straw" even though we don't actually pull straws much anymore - one person grabs a number of small objects like matches or peices of straw, and breaks the bottom half off one, then gathers them all in their hand so you can't tell which one is short. Everyone pulls out straws until the short straw is pulled, and that person has to do the task.
