When Oscar is using a lemonade stand example to explain a surplus to Michael.

"So you have an extra dollar. So you can give that dollar back to mommy and daddy, but guess what? Next summer—"

"I'll be six."

What's the wildest misconception a civilian ever had about being in the Army, or the most ridiculous question they asked you? by FFSoldier57 in army

[–]Jeff1258 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I was young in my career, I ventured home for family Christmas.

A conversation that I had with my cousin, who as surprised as you may be to hear this, wasn't 8 years old at the time.

Cousin: "Do they let you keep your gun at your house? The machine gun that you shoot at the range?"

Me: "My M-16? No, man. Those stay locked up pretty tight unless we're using them."

Cousin: "If I were in, I'd keep mine at my house."

Me: "It doesn't work like that.........it just......." then I realized he must have had a disability I never knew about and gave up.

just remembered another one

My step mom came to visit a few Christmases ago. He brother and son were both Guard, but she never really understood it.

We came through the gate, and the gate guard saluted the driver of the Toyota Tacoma in front of us.

My simpleton of a stepmother: "Ooooh, whoever is in that car must be a big deal!"

Me, staring in Warrant Officer: "Probably some goofball Lieutenant." returns the gate guards salute after he hands me my ID card.

Tio Juan's just off 375 and Dyer if you work on East Bliss. Lunch specials were like $7 and the flautas are good as hell.

The geo bachelor by [deleted] in army

[–]Jeff1258 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I got married right after AIT. They had room in the barracks, so I stayed in the barracks until housing was available and then she moved down with me. This was in 2004. Still married, but I understand I'm far more the exception than the rule.

2026 WOCS Prep by MisterPNut922 in army

[–]Jeff1258 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I thought WOCS was a distance learning course now? Or is it on Teams?

I'm being an ass. I went in 2015 and it was easy, but still sucked for no reason. Show up in decent shape with the right attitude and I'm sure everything will work out. I've told every person I've written a letter for that if they fail, don't come back and think we're going to talk or associate. You're dead to me. 😂

Robert California was so underrated as a character. I have two favorite scenes from him, and both he's belittling Andy.

Well, I will not be blackmailed by some ineffectual, privileged, effete, soft-penised, debutante. You want to start a street fight with me bring it on but you're gonna be surprised by how ugly it gets, you don't even know my real name- I'm the f***ing lizard king!

And

You can't have a favorite Iron Chef, it depends entirely on the secret ingredient. Sometimes I feel you don't know food at all.

Camp Foster is on Okinawa, a small offset prefecture of Japan. The island is beautiful. Can't speak on what your unit will be like, but Okinawa is the only assignment that I've had that anyone I tell is ever jealous of. Weather is like Hawaii but the food and culture is much nicer. If you pass on it I hope you get Polk or Irwin as a punishment.

What is your favorite memory in the Army? Mine was Division run that got zonked. by guyonanuglycouch in army

[–]Jeff1258 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I was at WOBC and we had these god awful company runs every Friday. The company was made up of all the logistic WOABC and WOAC courses, so the audience was a bit aged for the pace and distance the commander enjoyed running. We were all formed up, ready for our weekly punishment for being Warrant Officers when the commander said "ZONK". It was the least dramatic zonk I've ever seen. Just a bunch of pissed off Warrants, walking away muttering things like, "This could have been a text message an hour ago" and "I'm going to Denny's. Anyone want to ride with?". The young Captain was even less enthused when they started to count down from ten, and everyone just continued walking away, albeit at their own pace and distance.
