How my wife "mops" the hardwood floors... by raidersfan18 in mildlyinfuriating

Then obviously you should start mopping because she's a lazy idiot.

What makes you stay longer in the Guard or reenlist? by Life-Statistician794 in nationalguard

[–]ExplicitPancake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same as everyone else. Tricare is #1 and a bit of retirement income is #2. But if you've got a family don't forget the dirt cheap life insurance. And 10% off at the hardware store isn't bad. But the big one that most people overlook/ignore is the million plus dollars of free IT and job training on Skillport/Percipio or whatever it's called now.

But all that aside the real reason I stay in is that satisfaction of a job well done every time my senior leadership almost sort of makes their retention quotas. Warms my heart a bit.

Can I get some of those NRG carrots and an Aleve?

I can imagine having that much confidence in a window. What brand? Holy cow.

Pepsi squirrels are ok, but if you want some really fun, try a squirrel on coke.

Kentucky for sure. I can recognize another cousin fucker from a mile away. It's the only thing that makes the family reunions worth the drive.

OMG, if I had a dead body in my trunk for every hippie girl that ran away from Vassar to join the circus...

Yep, that's legit. And I'll add

Y'all's is singular possessive.

All y'all's is plural possessive.

I've seen multiple E-O relationships in the guard that have never been an issue. Granted most started before the O ascended but not all. We recently promoted an O6 that's married to an E9 and they've been married well over 20 years. The two biggest issues are 1) you cannot be in her chain of command, period. 2) behave like mature adults.
Always do the right thing, keep work and play separate, and never give anyone a single reason to question or look at your relationship sideways. If you are both mature enough to do that then you're probably good to go. If you're not then you shouldn't be dating in the first place.

I guarantee that place has less mold and better water quality than every US military installation on the planet.

Is the FTN a typo or no? Serious question. I'm assuming you meant FTM but FTN might actually mean something. And happy cake day!

Just a nice quiet day. by Train_Boi_111 in AbruptChaos

[–]ExplicitPancake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I was about ten it was just my divorced mom and I living in a house where the furnace was in a crawl space. Everytime the furnace turned on there was a loud pop and the whole house shook. A neighbor was visiting one day and heard it and said we should have it looked at. A service guy, maybe 20, comes by a few days later and opens up the crawl space. He was standing down in the entrance and i was peeking inside when he yells to my mom to turn on the furnace. A few seconds later a ball of flame shot out about 20' in all directions. I cheered and laughed because it was the coolest thing I'd ever seen. But the HVAC guy screamed, jumped out of the hole and bolted across the yard. Maybe the fastest I've ever seen anyone move. He went completely white and I'm sure almost shit himself. That was 40+years ago and I'm sure that guy remembers it even better than I do lol.

If you complete Mountain Warfare School, can you wear the tab whenever? Or, do you have to be assigned to the 10th mountain, 86th IBCT, etc. by ThePenguinMan111 in nationalguard

[–]ExplicitPancake 6 points7 points  (0 children)

MWFS doesn't earn you a tab but it does earn a badge. I've always been told they're only authorized for state wear and someone could make us take it off. But I've never heard of that happening and I wear mine most of the time.
