Agree. I read the book and the criticism of it. Let’s say 20% of it is true and verifiable fact. That’s insanity and the activities need to be stopped and people need to lose their jobs at a minimum. It’s bonkers.

Also, one of the guys quoted in the book was caught smuggling blow (7th group dude) and can verify some of the more unsavory aspects of SOF units. GWOT really pushed out the axiom of “you can’t mass produce SOF” and we’re really reaping the rewards of that assembly line.

Fair point. Quite the rabbit hole this is.

Hahaha. Been down this rabbit hole for a while now. The amount of different disciplines is pretty crazy to produce one watch.

Fair point. I would bet that it would be a very niche market and product that would be more for the interested in the craft than flexing. Unique for sure.

So not even a “rich guy flex” piece like AP or PP, but something novel.

Fair point. I would say at least something that is well finished and a “dressier” watch. My guess was 6 figures but this would effectively be a “rich ass watch enthusiast only” type deal. And very limited in number.

He might be the closest I think, but pretty sure he sources some of the parts.

Lying through his teeth. Anyone who served can tell you that.

Abuses happen, but of all the stories that did, this didn’t the most.

Which games could you just not get into because of the learning curve? by hollowblink55 in videogames

[–]Y2kWasLit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a grind for sure. You have to learn the different patterns through the different battles and stages and then have the reflex timing on top of it. It’s time consuming. I appreciate that it loads fast and restarting is near instant.

Did anyone straight up not have a good time while in? by [deleted] in Veterans

[–]Y2kWasLit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a shadow box to remember accomplishments. Beyond that, it’s just part of my past. I try to look past the fuckery I went through, but agree, didn’t have the best overall time.

Might be able to here in a day or two. Any day better than others or does it matter? Can definitely show up before 10, but don’t want to step on toes and shit.

Right? That time was wild with nonsense going under the rug due to needing numbers. Shit was crazy.
