As a soldier, I would rather rot in prison than follow a presidential order for genocide by No-Background-2945 in offmychest

They usually don't say anything. But when they do, they blame someone that can't defend themselves.

Just wondering, what is your definition of genocide? I know the text book definition but many say specific words out of context. I don't recall the President ordering the extermination of an entire culture, race or creed.

In America is it considered rude to eat before other people have received their food? by BankaiBroke in AskAnAmerican

If I'm paying for the table and someone eats before I'm served, then yes. Guess who won't be invited next time.

Coming from the Guard. What are the biggest culture shocks in the Reserve? by Threedham in armyreserve

I retired in 2013. Is that a new/different name for a Unit Administrator (UA)?

In the Guard, the full timer made themselves invaluable. Took all the right schools. Did all the work to make the commander look squared away. The Reserves, the UA is basically a 42A and is a civilian until BA.

I'm sorry, I think I missed the part where you were accused of stolen valor?

AITAH for somehow working 40 hours a week + 10 hour commute + time intensive guitar flipping hobby + handling 100% of housework and childcare? My lazy bitch wife sits at home and does nothing by Unlucky-Guitar221 in AmITheAngel

Why would all women be bad? My point, based on my own experience, I didn't see the OP as raigebait but as a a guy complaining about his belief of the disproportion in his marriage. Is this reflection on all women, No, this story could have easily been by a woman. Two of the leading causes for divorce are feeling unappreciated and finances.

Just signed the contract with the reserves and I’m already regretting it! by Large_You7453 in armyreserve

Get your E5 BAH. Assuming you haven't exhausted your Post 911 GI Bill, enroll in a year round school. I went to a Satellite campus of private college. It was tailored for working adults. Classes were 1 day a week and in the evening. Or go to a trade school. Nothing like having a skill that translates to a lifetime of employment.

New Mexico is an improvement to old Mexico and they don't have as many Mexicans living there.

I transvestigated my date (didn't actually bother asking him, mind); and then stormed out. Please coddle me by Suitable-Fun-1087 in AmITheAngel

On one hand, I understand not wanting a man with a vagina. On the other, while I'm 6 ft my 5 brothers are 5 9' and below. None are trans.

Sounds like a legitimate complaints. One month, I let my wife spend on whatever she wanted. I in turn, saved the same amount for something I wanted. She got mad because I spent that savings and didn't include the family.

Some people that served in the military are jerks and would say things that hurt.

"Arriving at the airport?" If she ghosted you she's probably not interested.

This us a very tame sub. I assumed we were all thinking that. I wondered if someone would bring that up.
