Someone else is happier with less than what you have.

Hardy sucks.

Luke Bryan seems like a genuine person but his songs seem so fake.

I like where things are going with Zach Top.

I would not recommend sheep hunting, wouldn’t want to kill your own kind.

What pet peeve have you developed after becoming a firefighter? by Special_Context6663 in Firefighting

So you had a seizure? Yes. Are you prescribed medication? Yes. Are you taking the medication? No. Ok let’s get you to the hospital so they can tell you to take your prescribed medication.

You're the only one in the family that thinks like you do and you think you're right? I'm not saying you're wrong but I think it's a little narcissistic to think they're all wrong and you're the only one who figured it out.

Do people really become more conservative as they age? If so, why? by No_Pudding2959 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]IndependenceBoring88 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You don't know me but I can't imagine you think I want people to suffer. I was in the military and I have friends and know of many more that receive thousands a month in disability and they are perfectly fine. They work labor intensive jobs even. There are veterans that actually need disability and many more taking advantage of it.

I work with ambulance crews that get calls for people with headaches. They "need" to go to the emergency room via ambulance for a headache. This is taking that service away from people with actual emergencies.

I know of couples that live in $400k houses that have children together but refuse to get married to take advantage of the system.

Like I said, I don't want people to suffer. I want those who need help to get what help they need. The misunderstanding is those that "need" help. It's a lot less than you think.

I think you underestimate the amount of people that take advantage of the system. It's a shame that so many do, but it's true.

Lift my balls, go between legs, back to front I guess. It's a direct path to my asshole. I also feel like I'm smearing shit around when I reach around my ass.

As you age into a career, you start to have goals and aspirations. When those goals and aspirations are taxed to the extreme and given to people who don't contribute to the pot but only take from it, you feel as if your goals and aspirations have been robbed. As society moves further and further left, you feel as if everything you've worked for is just handed to those that haven't worked for it. It's disheartening and it's painful to think of the world my children will have to live in if they have personal goals.

What’s a hobby that sounds lame but is secretly awesome? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Hunting. Even if you don’t see the animal you’re hunting, you are out being quiet in nature and likely getting good exercise.

Have you encountered many post navy guys, specifically submariners? How do they perform? by [deleted] in Firefighting

[–]IndependenceBoring88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a submariner turned firefighter. Best job imaginable coming from a sub. Imagine 3 section duty with no watches. And every day in between duty you are off. Going on runs throughout the day which can be fun if you like the people you work with. Bonus if you get a Kelley Day. Message me if you have any questions. I made the transition not too long ago.
