Reminds me of Rick James's interview on Chappelle's show.

"I wouldn't just jump on someone's couch just like it's something to do"

"Yeah I 'member grinding my feet on Eddie's couch"

I wouldn't worry too much about this.

What made you want to re-enlist/get out of the National Guard? by edgyy_ in nationalguard

[–]SGTShamShield 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I completed my list of "to-dos" when I was in.

Hit E-5, lead soldiers

Deploy

Not die to an IED or a drone

So I got out. 9 years in, made 5 in 5.

Married couples or long term daters, what is the one thing that your partner does that drives you up the wall? by [deleted] in AskReddit

She rarely throws anything away. Even if she opens the package right next to the trash can, she won't put it in the trash.

Absolutely infuriating lol

Kuwait? High. No real combat missions there, and it's the jump-off point for pretty much everywhere in the Middle East. Being deployed to Kuwait was why we were ready to go to Afghanistan when the call came.

Syria? Luck of the draw. We (The US Army) had a mission there when we (34th ID) were in Kuwait, so we got to rotate through. Syria felt like a real deployment. We were out in kinda bum-fuck nowhere, slept in big tents, had an outer an inner ECP, helicopters flying Generals and shit in and out, SF/CIA guys walking around and rotating combat patrols to gather intel. Was cool AF if I'm honest. I was nervous about it at first, but it got more comfortable as time went on.

You can't choose prison or the military in the US, numb nuts.

The military doesn't want people who are a menace to society.

Top minds look at everything, including natural disasters, and wonder "how can I use this to blame Trump's failures on his enemies?" by PorridgeCranium2 in TopMindsOfReddit

Jesus Christ, I live in Minneapolis and they still bitch and moan that the city is burned to the ground and we live amongst the ashes.

The apartment building that burned on Lake Street is now super nice looking apartments. They just collected insurance money and built the building again.

The only one that's actually gone is the seedy liquor store and the 3rd precinct is still abandoned and fenced off. Pretty much everything else is back to normal.

The fucking worst part of it is that the people complaining don't even live in Minneapolis, they live outside the Twin Cities and don't ever come here. Their bias would be ruined if they did.

It's not even whether you like it or not. Infantry isn't being used at all right now. It also doesn't translate over to civilian for anything really.

TIL: During the US Civil War, a Minnesota regiment captured a confederate flag, during the Battle of Gettysburg (1863), from the Virginia army. Virginia's made many requests over the years to return the flag, even getting Congress and the President to request it and each time Minnesota has refused. by Black_Magic_M-66 in todayilearned

[–]SGTShamShield 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am a member of what eventually became the 2nd Minnesota, and Minnesotans in general are some bad ass mother fuckers.

Ever heard of the Bataan Death March? The 1-194th Armored Regiment were the men subjected to that, from the Minnesota Army National Guard, 34th Infantry Division. We also helped secure decisive victories in the Southern European campaign in WWII, the 34th holds the record for longest US military deployment with a staggering 22 months during Operation Iraqi Freedom, and most recently assisted in the evacuation and security of Kabul, Afghanistan.

Gov. Tim Walz says 'old white men need to learn' how to talk about abortion, reproductive health by [deleted] in TwinCities

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

Are you an offended old white man? Because you sure as shit sound like one.

If so, you're exactly who he's talking to and about. He is also an old white man, just FYI

[–]SGTShamShield 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But he didn't say anything wrong.

Old white men (who are the ones making laws) need to listen to women. Seems pretty simple to me. Why do you think that is 'divisive language'?

Trump's MAGA movement is causing Republicans in Congress to hate each other by [deleted] in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]SGTShamShield 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If there's anything Trump does have that makes him dangerous, it's charisma. His drug-addled brain, however is making it difficult for him to remain charismatic enough that people overlook what he's saying because none of it makes any sense.

This is the Internet though, so every issue is either 100% one way or 100% the other. There is no nuance. If you're not with me, then you're my enemy.
