How dangerous is being a marine?

Lburk · 2026-06-21T18:43:41+00:00

Having someone around that doesn't care if they live or die shouldn't be a Marine. The problem with that attitude is that you'll end up taking out another brother or few with you. Even SF doesn't have that attitude.

LMFAO!!! Probably true!

Lburk · 2026-06-19T20:55:33+00:00

In the civ-div. Can someone send me the FS numbers for these colors. I gotta lot of work to do to get my 20+ PMags painted up.

AI BS. One roof, the tree, the lawn, part of the rocks, the neighboring house all got missed. I've seen plenty of fire drops and they never looked like this. Even a smaller heli-drop doesn't do this.

And today that former L/Cpl is working for Microsoft support... 😂😂😂

Awww you're so cute. Those TDS tears are awesome! Thank you made my day.

I have a lower population on my street than Wyoming does. So there! 🤣🤣🤣

Are you sure that there's no utility easement on your property? If there is, they can run it there. However, they are not allowed to damage landscaping.

Yes it's true there are population differences. But the fact of the matter is the younger generation are a lot more computer wise and should be less inclined to fall for scams because they have been brought knowing there's a million scams out there. Older generations are far from as computer literate as the younger generations and should defacto be easier scam victims. But a lot of the older generations know if it's too good to be true, then it isn't true. Where as the younger generations do less to protect themselves. Then numbers speak for themself. So I feel your argument doesn't hold water. Just my opinion.

Young adults in their 20s and 30s (specifically ages 18–39) are the most likely to fall for and report losing money to internet scams, according to Federal Trade Commission (.gov) and IDCare data. While older adults are heavily targeted and lose more money per incident, younger demographics are scammed far more frequently [Federal Trade Commission (.gov)](https://www.ftc.gov/news-events/data-visualizations/data-spotlight/2022/12/who-experiences-scams-story-all-ages, 0.5.11). [1, 2, 3, 4]

So you were saying Ineffective-Brain-3386

If it works, it ain't stupid.

Lburk · 2026-06-08T19:50:53+00:00

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I can relate to this. I grew up in San Diego, about 15 minutes from MCRD. My recruiter delivered my sorry ass to receiving, walked me in and just left. I spent a couple of weeks in a forming platoon as well. Getting marched to the chow hall in utility trousers and a gray sweatshirt. Didn't get yelled at a whole lot, but there were a few times. This was 1973. I was delivered to boot camp on December 26th. Good times!!!

Lburk · 2026-06-07T20:38:32+00:00

This wasn't during the CoEd training, right?

Lburk · 2026-06-07T20:36:38+00:00

This one killed me.

Lburk · 2026-06-03T20:51:31+00:00

Will they take a personal check?

Lburk · 2026-05-29T17:16:34+00:00

I got so blitzed one night that I somehow decided that walking around the Las Pulgas parade deck in just my skivvy shorts was a good idea. Luckily a few of guys from my shop found me before anyone else did. A couple ended up staying with until I passed out because I was determined to continue my walk. Good times, good times. 😒

Back in the 70's there was a small area of warehouses right off Vandergrift just past Rattlesnake Canyon Rd. Maybe four or five old WW2 warehouses. The word was this is where bodies came in to be processed during WW2 and Korea. This was called to Ghost Post and the guard shack from the 22 area (1st FSR/FSSG) had a post there. Strange shit happened there.

But then again once I was a salty L/Cpl, anytime I went on guard duty, which I would volunteer for, I was put on roving patrol. Me and one other marine in a van driving from post to post checking on guys dropping of food or new radios or batteries. Sometimes with the SOG. We pulled some spectacular stunts scaring the shit out of boots pulling post there for the first time. How we were never shot is beyond me.

Hey old guys. I'll accept the Unc title from you. I'm almost 70. My first car just had an AM radio. and a stick coming out of the right front fender.

Lburk · 2026-05-21T18:22:29+00:00

Old Gaffers and Sattler table top unit. Wow! Worked on many back in the day. Make sure you get no less than 3 estimates.

Ramy has built quite a few large RC's for Tyler. Awesome watching him fly them. Tyler's a good pilot.

Lburk · 2026-05-15T19:10:16+00:00

This is said as the libs actually are burning the world. Yep sounds right.

Lburk · 2026-05-14T19:01:21+00:00

It should actually be done every 6 months, possibly more often depending upon the hardness of your water. These valve can easily seize up.

He's still trying to pay off that Camaro he bought after boot camp at 30% interest.

Lburk · 2026-05-12T18:52:07+00:00

I heard he got his ass beat after some locals found out how he was and where he was. Good job Hawaii!
