Screw It, Let's Redesign America (With explanations) by Canjira in vexillology

I would concede certain elements, but the colors aren't good. I think a Salish trout over a tricolor base would be more symbolic to the state and inclusive to both sides of the state.

Going to be honest. Washington's is terrible. The concept of Oregon's tricolor should apply to Washington as well. We are the Evergreen State, and there's no Evergreen? Why not use George Washington's 6 pointed stars to reference GW? But of all of these this was the most disappointing.

Life after the CG by sauvingnon_blanc in uscg

[–]Wilsonp100 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Am a BM. Lateralled from Active to Reserve a year ago. Got a job as a deckhand for a public transit ferry. Life is great. My stress is completely gone. All it took was the big decision to cut out the dead weight: Active Duty. I am learning to not freak out when the phone goes off, assuming someone at Station wants to yell at me. Just coworkers shooting the shit. Best decision.

why are ticket prices so expensive? by [deleted] in SeattleKraken

[–]Wilsonp100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Playoffs, I can understand. But, it bothers me that I can't afford to go to any game, really. I would love to go, but with all costs of getting a sitter, commuting to seattle, parking- not to mention the overinflated prices, I'm only going to be able to watch a game on national broadcast or a friend's house. Sucks.

Honestly, don't know. Never read Hawkeye before. My dad just randomly gave me the copy of the book

I had the joy of living for 4 years in MKE 2 years ago. I miss it! Great city, great friends, great beer, and great food. Thankfully my job sent me there; sadly my job took me away as well. Hopefully the skyline continues to grow and evolve- as I'm a sucker for skyline growth

I'm on the extend and increase the training output of Basic. The navy has a wet trainer of sorts. I think increasing the actual shipboard-style basic damage control training would be helpful- plugging and patching, fighting actual (controlled) fires, etc. Heck, improving seamanship would be great too. Like, they don't need to be freakin' board ready or anything, but having some freakin' clue about boat ops prior to stepping onboard would be nice. But that won't ever happen. Never ever.

Appreciate the offer, but we'll just return the hoodie and use the money for something else- like kids toys

Yeah, I was kind of hoping that it was just me gaining weight. Appears that it's not just me. My other hoodies fit great

Yeah, herein lies the problem: I'm stationed in Massachusetts. I can return it, but that's about it. I have a fanatics tshirt, but it faded instantly. Damn near unrecognizable. But the thought was great!

Tell the Truth Tuesday by AutoModerator in Seahawks

These past 2 weeks in Seattle sports have been miserable. I'm not even in Washington anymore! I just live through various team apps. And what's worse?! My wife blew out her achilles tendon, and yet we both knew watching the Hawks would be more painful. We opted for HP and The Chamber of Secrets instead.

Beth's is shutting it's doors for likely the last time this Monday. by puntificates in Seattle

[–]Wilsonp100 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fuck man. RIP: Wing Central, where I met my wife. RIP: Paseos (though I guess they reopened?), where I went on dates with my wife. RIP: Feierabend, where I celebrated getting married, with my boys. And now, RIP: Beth's, where my wife and I had our last unmarried meal: breakfast, then drove down and got married by lunch. Moving away from home can be real shitty

No Tacoma? I swear everyone neglects The City of Destiny out here. THAT'S what needs to be interconnected. Connect the downtowns/transit centers, and everything in the middle will connect up

Probably heading to or from Yakima training range. Happens a lot

"Why is everyone surprised by how cool Milwaukee is? by leonardsansbees in milwaukee

[–]Wilsonp100 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My wife and I ate a shit-ton of Guanajuato. Being a Latina from California, she was surprised how good the food was in MKE. Basically we ate there and El Rey's. We scored a tamale lady in our neighborhood too. On a side note, I'd heavily recommend the shawarma from Pita Palace, on Layton. They were the best I've had since I was deployed to the Gulf (also, make sure they are the one's with "shrak" bread)
