There is a guy we call Lurch who is scary and dangerous. The place if full of swindlers. One guy speaks pidgin and he runs things. No one understands him but his followers. Everyone is cheating and shouting...shut up and order...people sometimes use phrases like, "Point of order". One big fat guy gets in everyone's face. One lady slaps another in the face. Homeless people create fake addresses...they then use these fake addresses for personal gain...After the meeting, my friends and I chat...we try to make the next meeting sane...it never happens...
