Been a while since I've stopped by here! Any OG's still around? I saw Marc Clifton on the first page of the lounge  Hope all is well!!

As the official OG representative, I can confirm he is still around but being plagued by tablet and cat related problems at the moment.

You may be official, but you are still not getting paid.

It is interesting because Griff is the Original OG (OriginalGriff) here, but there are indeed other OGs here...
OG Meaning & Origin | Slang by Dictionary.com[^]
It is quite interesting that Griff somehow chose a Backronym all those years ago before he even knew what OG formally meant. That dude is amazing.
He travels to the future then comes back to live out his days in the past. Definitely the OGest of the OGs.

I believe there are at least three active, plus someone called Dij who also pretends to be him.

A few of us still are. I'll stop by from time-to-time. For the sub 1k profile number OGs... most of them have gone though.

Marc has since merged with AI and is now everywhere at once. He's probably watching this post.

"How it goes" would be expected from an American resident; "How goes it" from a Dutch resident, as it is word-by-word translation.
I managed to piss off less people last year than the previous one, so that's a win

In TX it's
"How's it going?", reply: "Going." .... implies OK
"How ya doing?", reply: "Doing." ... implies OK

Thank you, sir. Appreciate the compliment. Good Tex-Mex too.
You don't have to die to visit.
Except in middle of summer.
Then it is hot as hell.

It is 11 hours by airplane. I'm hoping to find someone who moved from there to here and opened a BBQ restaurant

BBQ place near you. Not sure of quality, but hard to beat TX BBQ
Beef & Meat – Grill & BBQ Ranch Werl[^]
utility bill in winter last month was $130 close to max
Peak utility bill in summer is $300+
So yes, less money for heating.

In TX, we pay about ~$3.00 USD a gallon (a little under national average)
or $.85 USD per liter compared to $2.12 USD per liter in Netherlands.
So yes, you pay more to travel by auto.
If I did the math right
