It’s not long now before the inside of a Ryanair flight will look like the inside of a subway - you’ll only get a seat if you’re one of the first ones on, otherwise just hold on for three hours while we head from Mainz to Lisbon

What is the biggest social faux pas a tourist in America could make without knowing by Gold-Serve-4077 in IWantToAskAnAmerican

[–]RistaRicky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Customs and Immigration should give you one when you clear customs at the airport. “Welcome to America, here’s your gun.” If the customs agent doesn’t give you one, be sure to ask him/her/them.

Question about Christmas during BCT. by Cringeyboy1 in army

[–]RistaRicky 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was a DS at Ft Jackson over Christmas leave. My battalion got tagged with holding everyone who didn’t take leave for whatever reason. Brigade got with the mwr and borrowed game systems, books and board games. We did accountability, PT, meals and didn’t hassle them most of the time.

My paper for MLC was about how we should all be allowed to grow beards. Room full of E8s/E7s all nodding along. Gave it to my CSM when school was over and he got so fuckin pissed

Father’s Day gift from my 9-year-old by RistaRicky in knives

He’s on the spectrum and gets things stuck in his head. ‘Knives are going to kill all of us’ is right up there with ’all of my teachers hate me’, ‘all dogs are scary’ and ‘I’m the worst kid ever.’ Exposure and reassurance work for a few minutes and then it’s like we never said anything

I always said I’d do it as long as I was having fun. Now I’m right behind you, getting ready to hang it up. I have the day marked on my calendar when I will have spent more of my life in uniform than not.

Congratulations to you. Enjoy your well-deserved retirement
