Recruiters chase misery like sharks chase blood. That costume is probably more comfortable than the shit the army makes you wear and he can tell his boss to fuck off if he gets sick of it.
Recruiters chase misery like sharks chase blood.
I mean, accurate but Jesus Christ that’s brutal haha.
And he gets paid more to wear that costume than the military one.
The scars on my mate’s back from lugging their frequently hazardous nonsense around would support this.
Duck costumes also don’t render you unable to have sons as every kid he and his former unit members have seems to prove.
Am I the only dad (other than OP) traumatized enough to get the “Got any Grapes” reference?
Wadddle waddle and he waddeld awaaayyy
only dad
Broski the song was a popular flash animation on albino-blacksheep like 20+ years ago, so nah.
The kids who grew up with it are dads now
I blame Wade.
I blame Roe
So a bird saunters up to a citrus refreshment booth, and he communicates to the booth attendant, saying “hello (bom bom bom) do you happen to possess any grapes?”
The attendant returned “no, we only deal in the business of citrus refreshments, although the drinks are cool and crisp, and they were prepared in my household! Could I interest you in a serving?”
The bird returns, “I’ve no need.”
He’s already got a job, and you aren’t going to get PTSD from spinning a sign. On top of that, you can quit any time you want if you want to do something else.
In the military you are 4 times more likely to die from suicide than you are from being killed in combat.
The greatest threat to US military personnel is the US military.
Suicide also kills more Americans than murder within the USA
The difference is we don’t try to recruit teenagers for murder. Well, the government doesn’t anyways, at least on paper.
35k is also shit pay.
I read it as a 35k signing bonus.
Or the “Ram 1500/Dodge Challenger bonus”
You clearly have never experienced the dark underbelly of the sign spinning subculture.
The jig is up, US Military…we know what you are now
35000 AND a job?
So a signing bonus?
My brother joined up and deeply regretted it. I was 8 at the time. When I got to the age where recruiters started sniffing around I told one that I would join if I could only shoot the people Exxon wanted me wanted to shoot, I didn’t want to fight for any other oil company. He called me unamerican and they never came back .
Fucking spectacular
Thats actually hilarious. Good on you.
Shell or bail.
Welp, looks like it’s back to lying to vulnerable children
How hot is that in the rest of the world?
Here’s how you convert between the two:
T[°C] = (T[°F] - 32)* 5/9
32°F is 0°C which is why you need the 32 in there. For the fraction I always just try to think about whether Celsius or Fahrenheit is bigger. Accordingly, I’ll need a number smaller or larger than one.
edit:
Aight I got the fraction wrong, which kinda proves that it’s useless to remember lmao.
That edit lol I used to know this by heart at some point in my life. Now I’m fine knowing that it exists and use software to do it for me instead
Man, come on. The ONLY time imperial makes some decent sense is temperature: for humans, 0 is really cold and 100 is really hot.
Edit: for anyone metric having a cow here, I am pro-metric. All I’m trying to say is that of all the hairbrained measurements in imperial, temperature is the least hairbrained.
Ah, yes. Subjectivity.
Pretty much no one uses F°
your right. there is no true ‘objective’ scale for temperature. freezing/boiling water is arbitrary and not even that consistent. for 99% of use, farenheit is better for people. the biggest advantage that celsius has, is that it is the same scale as kelvin, but thats just because it was more popular in science. the rest of metric is good tho
Why don’t people want to die for oil, these days?! /sarcasm
Wow, what’s the job?
Shooting poor people to protect oil interests for multi-billion conglomerates.
Does it say anything about the kind of people you feel are up to the job that you’re approaching a grown man wearing a chicken suit?
That’s the correct answer. I was shot at once and the realization in the moment… well it messed me up royally.
What’s the point of the bottom half? Do we really need emoji summarization of a pretty straightforward story?
I can only hope he’s contemplating the end of it. Fuck the military and every war pig.
AMAB
35k AND a job? What’s the 35k for then? Or does he think it’s great to have a job in itself?
Btw going pew-pew on brown kids is not a job
The career warfighters I have met seem to think their job is to keep everyone as safe as possible, with the enemy being kept slightly less safe.
There are many in upper levels that see things differently.
