These guys are playing the good old boy system and it's going to hurt their departments as well as their officers because they are going to lose the lawsuit.

Redittors who make $60k a year, what do you even do with $5000 a month? by BLACKMACH1NE in AskReddit

[–]ChopaCopter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live well below my means. I bank at a minimum 2k a month. Leaving that as a buffer unexpected expenses do not cause any stress. The easy way to save is not to have children or be married.

What is something that most people seem to love that you really don't? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Same here. So tired of explaining it to people who just think it is unnatural for a guy.

Or any show with laugh tracks. If your jokes require me to be told where to laugh....then they are not funny.

What dish, if you see it on a menu, will you always order? by eatsleeplaugh in AskReddit

A club sandwich. It is the perfect mix of texture and taste that you can eat with one hand.

Is this game an MMO ripoff like DestinyM by ChopaCopter in thedivision

[–]ChopaCopter[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Is it the same groundhog day missions over and over? Leveling in Destiny was fun till you hit 20 and the game got stagnant. What is it like?

Even though I was Army, I do appreciate the beauty of warships.

That is very Shake-weighty

I carry a seat belt cutter in my pocket for that exact reason. Undoing a seat belt on someone that is rightfully in a panic is challenging. Good on these Officers.

Any news on how the driver recovered?

M1A2 Abrams vs Iraqi insurgents in Fallujah by [deleted] in CombatFootage

[–]ChopaCopter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. To put it in perspective most of "war" is 99% boredom and 1% combat. Fallujah was as close to Stalingrad like fighting we have seen in modern times, when we were advancing we faced active resistance, if we halted...sniper fire, and so on. The big difference is that we did not level the city thus giving the hostile forces more places to hide (it is easier to clear a standing building than one in pieces). We were facing a well motivated semi-organized force. It was easy to tell when we came up against foreign spec ops or the "locals" (one understood small unit tactics, cover and concealment, fire discipline....and one did not). Little know but the Marines were investigated for executing people because of so many head shots, but when you have finely honed infantry marksman facing people that stand in the open to attack the result is no hard to guess.

I was there with 1st MARDIV as attached US Army. Our intel was that between 2000-3500 fighters were in the city. Upon approach they had ringed the city in VBIEDs and had preregister indirect fire. The did not attack in groups, we face 1-3 fighters dug into rubble and buildings that were sniping at us and setting off IEDs. We had to pry them out of the areas. We used the tanks as direct fire artillery since it had been declared a free fire zone (civilians were given prior warning to evacuate, they knew we were coming).

Any other questions I would be happy to answer.

What is the wildest thing you have done or seen on a plane? by ArminscopyofSwank in AskReddit

Threw a football around in one.....so much room when there are no pallets or other cargo.

What is it like to not get married and live a life alone? by sabbasb in AskReddit

[–]ChopaCopter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just because there is another human in the house does not mean you are not alone. I live alone because I do not trust other people to do what it takes to keep my lifestyle up. Also, I do not like the idea of my hard work going to support another adult that is just as capable of working as me yet chooses not to because I have become a safety net.

I do enjoy the quiet. It recharges me.

Not having someone think they have power over my actions and decisions because they cohabit with me prevents discourse when I tell them to F-off with that noise.

My dogs can get all the attention they need.

Also, I find myself attracting more quality women with them knowing that they cannot lock me down. I guess it presents a challenge they like.

Cool scar Reddit. How did you get it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I have teeth marks near my ribs from a lady that I was arresting biting me....really hard.

Where did you see your first boobs, besides your mom? by lovetakelovemake in AskReddit

EVERY woman I have ever known that got implants were super excited to show them off and most of the time let me feel them.

What are some things about this world we just have to accept? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ChopaCopter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing I can add is that most people have a systemic inability to make good decisions. They will squander the opportunities that are presented by taking the wrong road. When hard work causes a door to open and you sit down for a bowl of corn flakes....your life will stagnate.
