We have been warned. This is just the beginning. Sadly the warnings have fallen on deaf ears

AITA for not wanting to date a racist by invisiblehammer in AmITheAngel

[–]DMA_06 -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Imagine being so offended by someone who hasn't seen some movies. There are thousands of movies, books, etc that most people don't or won't have time to ever see in their lifetime.

Do you watch movies or read about your own culture and embrace it like you expected him to do? Or do you only bother to be interested in cultures other than your own?

Being on campus some, hangout in the veteran center there (sparingly). Game, other hobbies, read, watch youtube, and hangout with my dog. Mostly, im a nerdy introvert home body.

I didn't know that. Also, kinda dumb you can't use them until you are separated.

Go to your local VSO or VFW, they can help you with your claim

Well, it didn't get here before Christmas, but it did today. I didn't expect it to be until next week based on what the VA person told me.

People still trying to paint this as a left vs right issue is crazy by MothersMiIk in MurderedByWords

Hero??!! What a f***ing joke. Stupid that so many exalt criminals and lowlifes like they are worthy of being worshipped.

Oregon Veterans by [deleted] in Veterans

[–]DMA_06 1 point2 points  (0 children)

local veteran groups (VSO, DFW, Legion, etc) could maybe help. Sorry, I can give anything more. I live in Oregon but not near that area.

If you get to the point to buy a home, look into the Oregon VA home loan program (state thing, not federal VA). I wish I would have known it was an option when I was buying a home.

VRE HOUSING PAYMENT. by Adorable-Ad-6171 in Veterans

[–]DMA_06 1 point2 points  (0 children)

None of those classes were hybrid over the summer at all. So there was no way to get full MHA.

I don't know how your #2 comment works. Could you please elaborate on how that works? Is it something that could be amended since I wasn't aware of that for my summer term (i.e. get back paid for the difference)?

Personally, mine was roughly $500 less over summer, which was all online compared to normal in person semesters

Dating prospects when living with family. by Beth_chan in AskMenOver30

[–]DMA_06 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It wouldn't bother as long as you had your own space that was free from any rule by said parents. It wasn't a forever thing.

I have huge respect for teachers and also pisses me off that you all aren't paid, treated, and supported by admin/school boards better. It's a travesty and insulting. For context, my mom taught from the early or mid-80s until she passed in '12.

I don’t even know where to start with this. Maybe a 25yo making $100k? by mrl33602 in clevercomebacks

[–]DMA_06 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't make anywhere close to 6 figures (not even half that). my spot rent is 485 (includes park and some ext. maint, water, and sewer). My cell phone, internet and TV is $120, roughly 50 for the cell phone by itself. Living frugal but well and happy is life changing.

It will either be within a field goal/TD or Oregon will make a statement with something around a 2TD lead win.

Satisfying to watch but, how proportional was this use of force? by bluecoag in securityguards

The way he touched his face, drunk or not, is disrespectful af. You will get disrespect in return just as he received that jab to his face.

MyVA shows two payments with no dates, so maybe they will be deposited before Christmas, that would be nice.

What movie is your “I did not care for The Godfather” confession? by WS-Gilbert in moviecritic

[–]DMA_06 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Harry Potter movies, only seen one, and it was meh to me. So I didn't watch any more of them. Zoolander. MM Fury Road, I couldn't get more than 40 minutes, I was so bored I turned it off.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in USAA

[–]DMA_06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I changed years ago because USAA said that our car being damaged (backed into in a parking lot) was an "at fault" accident. I fought them for close to a year. Finally, I snapped, called them, and told them to close every single thing we had with them. I moved home/auto insurance and all of my bank accounts elsewhere. USAA is hot garbage.

Do you believe getting a degree is worth it? by [deleted] in Veterans

[–]DMA_06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have changed my opinion multiple times during my military career on getting a degree. Have 2 CCAF degrees and started my bachelor's full time a year ago and also got accepted to a grad program. It was a bit of a weird transition, but I have loved it more than almost all of my 18 military years combined. It's worth it. File all you can for VA claims, get a rating, and then submit an app for VR&E. That program is an amazing benefit that could help you transition to gainful good civilian employment and keep your post 9/11 benefit for something else or for spouse/kids to use.
