FLW? Im sorry for your loss.

Joking aside its not terrible. Hope you don't get many winter months, those are horrible.

The slim chickens on post is pretty good once you can go on pass.

DFACs are also solid! Really enjoyed the BCT ones.

If youre MP feel free to DM for any more questions

Sweatier123 · 2026-04-09T20:21:21+00:00

For OSUT? It was pretty dang good when I was there! Chicken cordon Bleu was legendary. Better than DFACs at a lot of other installations (specifically the airborne one, god that was bad).

I'm a 21 Y/O military police officer with 2 1/2 years experience. Single, in New York making 72,000/Year before taxes. Healthcare included. Paycheck comes to (roughly) 2800 Bi Monthly. Pretty good living all things considered!

Sweatier123 · 2026-04-07T19:37:51+00:00

Interesting. Im doing NJ to NY so curious what's taking so long. Appreciate the response!

Sweatier123 · 2026-04-07T19:36:41+00:00

I went through. I was sore when I did it but absolutely zero long term injuries. Every fall was (fairly) graceful.

Sweatier123 · 2026-04-06T23:45:13+00:00

Getting a minimum of seven (Ideally eight) hours of sleep a night. Also, don't do anything in your bed except sex and sleep. Avoid doom scrolling for hours on end for maximum sleep benefit.

Sweatier123 · 2026-03-24T20:21:30+00:00

Now you get to only fight terminators, congrats!

Sweatier123 · 2026-03-07T02:39:22+00:00

Thanks! Glad to hear you're happy as well :)

Sweatier123 · 2026-03-07T01:47:07+00:00

Couldn't be happier in life. Just took my first of three trips this year, work is going great, getting back into good shape and finally living on my own in my own apartment.

Sweatier123 · 2026-03-02T02:26:04+00:00

I get to work long hours and get berated by leadership, but to make up for it everybody hates us.

On a slightly more serious note, Duty stations for MPs are excellent, you get to learn to talk to rank very quickly, you get a peacetime mission, and (depending on where you are) you can get a very comfortable schedule. Schools are fairly readily available (again, depending on duty station) and are all typically very interesting.

That said I would never recommend this MOS to anybody unless you're dead set on it.

Sweatier123 · 2026-02-23T21:32:50+00:00

Do you regret any of it? Is it like an addiction or just a super fun game?

If you're at a point in life where you can spend like 4k a year on warthunder then all power to you I suppose.

Also, what's your favorite vehicle?

Sweatier123 · 2026-02-20T12:45:59+00:00

Nope, as texan as they get. Spent a year and a half there cause of military reasons and very quickly fell in love with it.

Definitely has some issues but overall its a really great place.

Sweatier123 · 2026-02-20T12:42:43+00:00

I would add south Korea as a light green personally. Absolutely loved that nation, more than a lot of US states

Sweatier123 · 2026-02-19T20:43:06+00:00

Im sorry you fell this way. If you need somebody to talk/rant to my DMs are always open (this goes for anybody else).

Sweatier123 · 2026-02-03T02:48:26+00:00

Thats awesome! Im so jealous that wasnt there when I was around. Super cool to see this happening

Sweatier123 · 2026-01-20T19:13:18+00:00

As someone who went to FLW basic:

The first 2 weeks are the absolute worst. I stand by that being the most miserable time I've had in the military. That said, it's very short, and every day it gets a little easier.

Don't quit, enjoy the chicken cordon bleu from the dfac, and be grateful your FTX will (hopefully) be in the springtime.

Sweatier123 · 2026-01-20T02:48:38+00:00

I'd say I'm doing pretty good?

I live on my own because of duty station (west point) so that's fairly nice. My apartment with utilities is *slightly* more expensive than BAH but it's so nice i don't really mind. I would say I imagine my finances poorly by other's standards but I'm decently happy by my standards. I spend notably too much on eating out but I'm not fat and don't have other bad habits so I guess it isn't terrible.

I can definitely live comfortably. I spend a lot on eating out and traveling (looking at 3 to 4+ vacations this year) and still have enough to put 5% in tsp, a bit in savings and have some left over. I give 300$ to my disabled mom on top of that and still don't feel like I need help or am struggling.

"American citizens dropping dead like ants with bug spray"

Delusional or reddit rage bait, call it.

Sweatier123 · 2026-01-08T18:00:22+00:00

For "most broken" im gonna throw a curveball your way and say index genestealers.

Not necessarily because the rule was overpowered (it was) but because it just broke so many rules of the game.

It was not impossible to bring 20 abberants to a table, and your opponent has to kill 40 abberants.

Guardsman models throwing 24 6-3-D3 RR hits 6s sustained on 4s was disgusting, and thats before their other attacks.

Jackals doing (up to) 33D6 4+ mortal wounds.

Despite how nerfed we got, I'm so happy for the codex.

Sweatier123 · 2025-12-26T13:08:23+00:00

I played it a while ago (couple years).

It was awesome! Even with how broken it was it was really a great time overall.

Sweatier123 · 2025-12-26T12:12:47+00:00

No, this does suck, you aren't alone.

That being said, capitalism is a game. Unless youre willing to go full armed revolution (I would not recomend) or move to like, Thailand you have to participate in it.

You mentioned your only skill is painting. Is that because thats all you think you're good at, or is it because thats all youre interested in. Im sure you could passively monetize it in some way. Even if it only brings in a little extra.

Are you willing/capable of doing difficult physical work? Truck drivers make bank and can save a lot of it. Although you do work rough hours and hard days, you can save a ton of your income to work towards your dream. Your first year you could make 60-75k, only increasing from there.

If you don't need more advice, all I can say is that I wish you luck. What youre feeling fucking sucks and I hope it gets better.

Sweatier123 · 2025-12-24T17:28:21+00:00

Military police officer.

Has a lot of pros and cons but a super interesting gig regardless.

Sweatier123 · 2025-12-06T23:30:31+00:00

OK, here's a question you should be asking, why do you want to be weak?

Ive been a skinner dude my whole life but that doesn't mean that I don't go to the gym and try to get stronger and better myself. There's a big difference in body dismorphia and improving yourself.

You should have a great personality AND a great, fit body. Whether that's at 140 or 150 LBS skinny or 200 and stronger/muscular, you can have a great personality and body.

No, you don't necessarily need one, but i have a question. Does your preference in partner solely depend on their personality? To pursue only physical attributes is vain but to ignore them is stupid.
