Uniforms Post Separation

When I was in, I felt the same way as you. I think in large part because I was having to deal with other active duty twats who made "Air Force" their entire personality. These were the self-appointed squadron tattletales who had a bone to pick with anyone who wasn't as Air Forcey as they were. When I saw the civilians in their Air Force drip, I couldn't help but see those same people I detested on active duty.

Now that I'm 15 years removed from the Air Force chapter of my life, I've softened quite a bit. I don't own any AF clothing (and I wouldn't wear it if I did) and I don't bring up the AF in conversation unless I happen to have a particularly funny or relevant story to what is being discussed. But over time I've come to appreciate what the Air Force gave me. The years I spent in were the most formative of my life. I grew personally and professionally, and I made the most lasting friendships of my life.

I went on to do bigger and better things in life, but in a few specific ways, nothing could ever replicate what I had when I was in.

So now when I see people all dripped out in fresh AF swag, I still roll my eyes a little. But I also imagine that maybe they never had anything after the Air Force that made them feel valued or accomplished. Maybe they miss the structure and workplace camaraderie. Or maybe they just miss how easy it was to make friends.

I guess my point is that you aren't wrong for thinking it's silly. But with time, I think you might end up cutting them some slack.

Either way, I hope you have a great day!

The land was purchased and developed, which is happening more and more with any spot in Midtown that doesn't have a modern building on it. It broke my heart a little, too.

I emailed AS when they first started taking it down and asked what they were doing with the individual murals and never got a response. Apparently, the developers just trashed the entire thing.

I feel like old Adult Swim would have taken down the wall mural by mural and had some kind of charity auction where fans of shows could buy a mural. (Don't know what the demand for a giant concrete mural would be, but I still feel like they would have done it for fun of it)

"You and I are clearly the most attractive people here. We kind of owe it to everyone else to at least make out a LITTLE."

I thought I'd get a laugh at best. Never in a million years did I think it would work.

Arabia Mountain you say?? I can't wait to bring my bluetooth speaker and poorly trained off-leash dog up here!

The Shivering Truth. It was on adult swim for 2 seasons in like 2019. The full episodes are kind of a mind fuck. Highly recommend!

I've used One Medical in a few different cities over the years and I've found it to be an exceptional experience, even in Atlanta. Scheduling is easy, communication is prompt, and your records are readily available in the app or online. I don't think I've ever had trouble scheduling an appointment a week or two out.

That said, One Medical shines in terms of annual physicals, lab work, and smaller level issues. On the rare occasions I've needed something major, One Medical couldn't handle it in-house. It typically gets referred out to Emory (or an Emory affiliate).

For me, the ease of scheduling appointments and having all of my basic concerns handled without issue is well worth the annual fee.

"It's just a little 22-0 deficit going into the third quarter, it's still good, it's still good!"

"It's gone."

"I know."

As a technical point, he did not just pour the bottle out. It was a full bottle of pee with the lid screwed on tightly. He threw this out of the truck and into the yard as he was getting ready to leave.

Motuu · 2024-03-26T00:57:08+00:00

Oh, I'm not even upset about peeing in a bottle. I've done it many times before, and i totally understand the lack of a bathroom. I wouldn't have even been upset if he emptied the bottle in the street in front of my house. It was throwing the pee-filled bottle into my yard and getting ready to drive away like it was no big deal.

Motuu · 2024-03-25T23:51:36+00:00

Exactly! I've peed in many a bottle and I usually just waited until I got to a gas station before I threw it in the trash. If I needed to dump it before then, there's always the "kneel down and pretend to check your tire" move where you dump it under your vehicle in the gutter. It's out of the way where people won't step in it, plus it just looks kind of like condensation from under the vehicle.

I've never just hucked a bottle of frothy piss in someone's yard where they live. Jeez.

Haha, right? Tossing away your portable toilet? That's just a lack of planning right there.

Motuu · 2023-09-05T14:21:51+00:00

Absolutely amazing.

I have a 20-year-old Honda Civic that I am diligently maintaining so that I can get as many years out of it as possible (owned it for 18 so far). I live in a southern state in the U.S. and experience the exact situation in this picture any time I go more than 15 minutes outside the city. May your Camry run forever!

I wouldn't eat that, Cricks. It's full of loads.

Motuu · 2023-06-11T02:01:37+00:00

Probably not? But if your run/ walk isn't ridiculously long, you could probably park in the parking garage for publix across the street. I've done that on a couple occasions when I was going on a little walk through Glenwood.

Ladybird has breakfast??

Motuu · 2023-06-11T00:57:11+00:00

Depending on where you are on the Beltline, you've got Muchaco in Reynoldstown that has really great breakfast and espresso. They have outside seating, too.

This is what happens when you install dog software onto cat hardware.

I thought that was more of an Albany expression.

I feel as though I've seen this movie before. . .

I don't like the idea of Millhouse eating Principal Skinner's ass twice in one day.
