LOUDLY PROCLAIM THINGS!
I might or might not be drinking. Loudly proclaim things about yourself. Ex. I LOVE CATS! Go.

Sketch-a-Day
Yep, been talking about it here and there and figure it's easier to dedicate a separate thread to it rather than hijacking one in which everyone should be sharing their work! However, this is where you lovely people come in: I would like suggestions on the themes/subjects I draw each day. So in part, please leave…

THE Project Thread
... no, not that sort of project. I'm not looking to fix anyone. :p What sorts of projects are you working on that are not related to diet/fitness? Currently, I'm still working on this monster scarf. I'm down one chart.. of six. Ugh.

The MFP Gratitude Journal (Thread)
I thought this might be a fun exercise for a lot of us seeing as how we all struggle from time to time; we all have days where nothing is going right or life is piling up stressors faster than you can stack a Jenga tower. I know I could use more forethought into thinking about things I am grateful exist, people who are…

What Did You Win at Today?
I know @Revolu7 was supposed to start this thread or whatever, but I couldn't wait. :wink: What is something you "won" at today? Big or small, celebrate your tiny achievements or good fortune and stay motivated. :) - I used going to the post office to mail books as an excuse to walk (it's about an hour roundtrip) and on my…

The Sad Song/Music Mega Thread
*kitten* it, I want sad music. Can be either sad lyrically or musically. If it sounds sad or is sad subject matter, it belongs in here, regardless of genre. Get to it.

What Are You Watching? (YouTube Edition)
So even though YT is full of young, aspirational idiots doing irresponsible things maybe 50% of the time, it's also a great source of inspiration, motivation, curiosity and intrigue. So, what do y'all watch on the platform and what about it interests you? Share with the class. We could all stand to branch out some. :)…

A Chit-Chat Christmas Playlist
Okay, it's officially OKAY to listen to Christmas music now as it's not August, not Halloween and after Thanksgiving. What Christmas songs does Chit-Chat have to offer to this playlist? "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)" - Death Cab for Cutie…

The Pawsitivity Thread
Yep. The world is a dark place these days and most of us wish 2020 was already over and that brighter things were on the horizon. So that got me thinking, why not have a thread with a bunch of things that are positive or make you go "awww!" After all, everyone deserves a kitten pile. Unless you're allergic, then no. So…

Name a Disney Song You Can't Stand
Was reminded in another thread that even though I generally find Disney songs to be catchy and fun to sing to (like musicals), there are a few songs I hate/can't stand. So.. what are Disney songs you don't like? Example: I can't stand "It's a Small World" or "A Whole New World".

Word You Love/Hate
Post a word you are particularly fond of... and one you aren't as fond of.. or that makes you outright uncomfortable. Word I love: Cattywampus (cool word that means "askew" or "not lined up". Word I don't: Moist (particularly because people insist on saying it over and over to annoy others).

A Question About Numbers
I'd like your help trying to figure out a sustainable and yet non-discouraging number to shoot for as far as calories in are concerned. I am not new to either CICO or this site (or calorie counting sites in general), but for whatever reason, no matter what number I utilize (based on numerous calculators and trying to do…

Diary of a Quarantini
Let's face it, soon we'll all need one. Be that a legitimate martini or just a bunch of rum you shove in a martini glass. What are you doing to cope? How are you managing to not murder others, talk to yourself or question your sanity? Post here. 03/21/20 - Decided to try out a craft utilizing alllllllll the art pastels…

Favorite Book?
Do you have a favorite book? Or books? Share with the class, yo. :smiley: Mine is Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness.

Something New
What's something new you've wanted to do/try, but for whatever reason, you just haven't gotten to it yet or you're apprehensive over it? It might be mundane, but I want to try yoga and see if I can get into it, but the whole culture around it kinda puts me off.

The HAIR Appreciation Thread
Got hair? Post here. Body hair? OK! Red, brown, blonde, silver? A-OK? Got wigs you like to switch out or a merkin? Go on and post (not the merkin, this is a strictly PG image thread) :lol: Point is, if you have hair, you can post here. Hell, you can even post here if you want to talk about the musical "Hair" or the song…

Chit-Chat AMA (Ask Me Anything)
So, gotta question you want to ask but don't know who to ask it to? Or do you just want the strange opinions of a bunch of Internet weirdos on your favorite site to answer you? Ask those questions here! Hopefully, Chit-Chat will band together and answer you (but it might not be an answer you want or like!). Can be serious…

The Learning Thread
Do you have something you've recently learned or something you've known for a long time that is not common knowledge? Do you think others might be interested in learning about it? Post here! Some of us can NEVER get enough knowledge. Ex. Today I FINALLY learned what a Hurdy Gurdy is (think "Hurdy Gurdy Man" by Donovan).…

You Walk Into a Bar...
... and order something. What do you order? Does it differ any from something you would have ordered a decade ago in 2010?
-
Life's Tiny Disappointments
Yep. No major ones, just oddly specific tiny disappointments you encounter. Ex. When you go to open an avocado that looks nice and realize half (or more) of it is mushy and/or bad. :(

Judgmental Things
Okay, so I know MFP is a safe and supportive space for a lot of people (and I'd like to keep it that way), but I find I learn so much about people in general when we have the more pessimistic and/or down-to-earth conversations. So... I would like to know what sorts of things MFPers automatically judge someone on (to…

Habits That Changed You
So, I thought it would be interesting (and insightful) if people who have been successful in their long term goals could share with the rest of Chit-Chat the not-so-well-known ins and outs of habits they picked up along the way that led to their long term success(es). For instance, we all know that consuming less calories…

Holiday Ideas
What do y'all do for the holidays? How do you celebrate? What traditions are specific to you and yours? In our family, the Advent Calendar is a thing. We don't put a big spin on the purpose of the calendar more than counting down the days, but every year, the calendar has a theme. This year, it's books. I've scoured around…

Unusual Dietary Practices and Their Effect
Have any of you engaged in any weird or "fad-ish" dietary practices over the years? Things like gluten-free, soy-free, vegan, South Beach Diet, etc.? Did you:* Start for any reason outside of general health or weight loss? * Notice any discernible difference after a set amount of time in your weight, habits, health? * Find…

Spooky/Creepy Images
Yep, I'm jumping the gun to Halloween and Day of the Dead. I want spooky images. Anything spooky or unsettling. Can be real images or not. Just whatever you think is spooky/creepy/unsettling. Obviously, let's keep within the guidelines established. Don't want anyone getting booted. The Newby Church Spectre
