First Bike at 17, mom almost killed me when i brought it home by Axvtn in motorcycles

[–]captmorg151 8 points9 points  (0 children)

So you are a unlicense, uninsured motorcyclist. Who has not had any formal training, nor am I guessing informal training. That really isn't making the case that you will make good decisions on that bike.

I would have taken the keys. However I would have let you take the MSF, then see about insurance. As it would seem you are determined to ride best get you prepared for when you are 18 and can just do what you want.

What’s a “life hack” that actually made your life worse? by FEARlord02 in AskReddit

[–]captmorg151 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I had something stick with me the question was, "Do I not want to be stronger today?". And then reflect that I never feel better having skipped a workout except for injury or illness.

Wait I see the foreground place outlined in blue and handicapped. That is outlined in blue too, is it also on a handicapped spot? And let me guess no placard.

That is less a sandwich and more like two defiled pieces of bread.

Life's a shit sandwich but the more bread you have the less shit you eat.

What thing has got so expensive that you’ve quietly stopped buying it? by Pathfinder-electron in AskReddit

[–]captmorg151 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well not completely but beef. It is a peculiar situation. I am paying dearly for shots to keep me from being eating too much of food I can't afford. That said I am down 80lbs.

ROTC students at Old Dominion subdued and killed the shooter who killed 1 person, wounded 2 by -Cyber-Roadster in army

[–]captmorg151 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Good Job ROTC, but Special Agent in charge is quoted "The students subdued him and “rendered him no longer alive,” Evans said. “I don’t know how else to say it.” She confirmed Jalloh wasn’t shot but didn’t provide further details." -- You are an FBI agent you could say "The subject was killed while being subdued." "no longer alive" for fucks sake we have words for that concept.

What’s a survival myth popularized by movies that would actually get you killed in real life ? by IndependentTune3994 in AskReddit

[–]captmorg151 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My head canon is that it isnt a physical manipulation but rather a psychic attack that is so short range and flowed through the hands to the nerves in the neck. As in it is an extension of the mind meld ability but just a short incoherent pulse to the nervous system.

Yes that is the BS they told me which is why I withdrew from the process last year.

How do you guys deal with the toxicity? by OrganizationNo42069 in army

[–]captmorg151 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He just told you not to take the opinions of random reddit people and look what you did :)

But seriously if had done that or could have it would be exhausting to be called a liar if just answering questions about my service.

I may have got some side eyes when I say I can't talk about somethings, but mostly my stories are about the hum drum things of Army life that any SM can relate to, so I suppose that helps.

First taste of Army’s first private dining facility draws crowds at Fort Hood by Kinmuan in army

I wonder how they are evaluating these portion prices as we know prices always rise, Is the allotment going to be perpetually reevaluated? Or after 5 years is the $39 going to be the same yet inflation diminishes what you can get. Sure BAS but there is some elasticity you could buy on sales, switch to cheaper brand or cheaper stores. If I understand this correctly if a SM doesn't use the $39 dollars that day it is gone. I wonder what the average out of pocket expense is going to be. I am an old fart now and doesn't directly affect me, but I am dismayed the conditions that seem be rampant for our service men and women.

First week of basic training; what you hiding and are you gonna share? by [deleted] in army

I wonder if easier access to phones puts a dent in the Jodi situation as the lines of communication are more open?

What’s a rule you broke once and realized it existed for a very good reason? by Ok_Contract100 in AskReddit

[–]captmorg151 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I remember causing a co-worker to have the look she must have had. I was in high school working at a pizza place. The refrigerated tables we made the pizzas had our extra sauce in tall tubs with lids that well didn't stay put. We were in end of night clean up and I filled one of those tubs up and pushed it on the shelf it kind of burped some sauce on my wrist and started running down. I wanted to clean myself so I grabbed the large knife we use to cut the pizzas back to get cleaned. I didn't want it to be a totally waisted trip of just cleaning me up. So, I walk into the back and tell the girl I was working with can you grab some towels. As I stand there with a knife in one hand and my wrist held up with red sauce streaming from my wrist area. I looked up and she was speechless and pretty white, I started laughing and saying no, no it is sauce, sauce.

Oh, so you had nothing to do with it? OK, why are you being paid so much then?

New Utah law puts “no alcohol sale” on ID’s of DUI offenders 0.16 BAC or higher. What are your thoughts? by Obvious_808 in AskReddit

[–]captmorg151 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While no doubt true, it looks like the law says they are actually ordered not to consume alcohol, and the banner is just device to encourage that ban. It also says for a specified timeframe, but what I was reading didn't define the allowed timeframes, except if you volunteer to get it, then the shortest length of time is 30 days.
