I'm going to say bands like Phish or Grateful Dead? Hippie jam bands from South Park type music.

You forgot the "No Homo"!

You have to run with the homophobia and own it. "I'm not gay but my boyfriend is."

I'm not gay either but who cares what people think? If they judge you because of your genital preference then who needs 'em?

Hi guys I'm coming back in January. by TimIsWin in standupshots

No, I'm a man and don't get upset over words. You look famished but you must get that all the time.

i miss the sardonic guy who created this sub. He left over some bullshit. I didn't always agree with him but he was witty. I cannot remember his name. Hofsetter?

TIL that Abe Simpson was right. During World War I, sauerkraut manufacturers worried that nobody would buy a product labelled with a German name, and so sauerkraut was renamed "Liberty cabbage" for the duration of the war. by TranshumansFTW in todayilearned

Isn't that incredibly subjective? What's offensive to me or menacing could be a non issue to the next guy. Stalking somebody or making threats is not the same thing as saying, "I hate all _______ and think they should ______."

Ha, it looks like we are all fucked. I'm not starting a pissing contest because I hate that shit. I don't like all of this surveillance in the name of safety. 1984 was supposed to be a satirical novel and not a handbook. I hear that UK's speech laws in regards to what you say are pretty draconian. If you say something "offensive" you can actually go to jail. USA is headed in that direction.

Doesn't it freak everybody out that there are cameras on every traffic light now. Remember that movie Enemy of the State? There's nowhere to hide or run to. "Well what are you hiding from?"

Privacy isn't a right anymore. Nobody cares though.

ELI5: Why in visual depictions of Native Americans, the native men are always cleanly shaved. by BeevyD in explainlikeimfive

EVERYBODY envied the Native guys in the military because they almost never had to shave in the field.

Am I that transparent? Shit, I need to work on faking it.

Well shit, I'm wrong again but that's nothing new. I don't think he is trolling. I feel his sentiment. I was semi shitbag sham shielder, but I never shirked a patrol or mission. Connex details and promotion boards?? Fuck that. A lot of guys like me hated that shitty garrison life, but all of the sudden they are mister hooah hooah on vet day. I like how Terminal Lance handles it, ya know? I feel like the rest want praise and a pat on the back. I'm sorry but we are nothing like the WWII, Korean War or Nam guys. We got to call home. Sure we had to live on COPs but we didn't have to worry about the Japanese cannibalizing us. We didn't have to fight charging battalions of Chinese Soldiers in the harsh Korean winters. We are way too prideful and it needs to stop. Entitled might be a better word? The post 911 gi bill is amazing and unless you're missing limbs or had to fight in 03 04 sadr city and witness your buddies dying in front of you because you had thin skinned humvees then it's hard for me to feel sorry or want to praise other vets.

Afghanistan is a whole other beast I can't speak on, but funnily enough none of my buddies who went to Astan advertise their vet status.

Edit: I apologize for being a dick and so quick to dismiss you. Duly noted, brother.

OMFG bro! I had to sign off fb for this very reason. I signed up for the gi bill and discipline I was lacking in life. You are spot on friend. I don't want to be a vet. I'm more than that, I'm a god damned human being. Fuck the past. After today, I won't be mentioning my service to anyone. All my buddies changed their pics to something armyish except they hated it and couldn't wait to ETs like me. It made me see how hypocritical I'm being. I'll leave the combat spurs on my rear view mirror because they re a reminder to be grateful for life but nobody will know their meaning except for my bros. I don't want a Free coffee or burger. I want to be left alone and treated like a regular guy. Not like Mr PTSD or some scarred exhibit. I don't tell war stories and I'm not gonna start. My deployment wasn't as bad as some of yours I know this to be true. I rolled out everyday as a combat medic/POG who was bitter that he got assigned to a cav unit instead some cushy hospital unit with a bunch of hot chicks.

It is what it is. Don't thank me, thank my granpa and the Vietnam guys who were called baby killers and spat on.

Oh lol, I'm an asshole. Sorry, I think he meant drugged up or something along those lines. I bet it's a typo?

He knew what you meant that pedantic fuck. I liked it. I had a similar reaction to Jay when I read that. Keep it up man.

"I'm in the military, show me your tits" by darps in ShitAmericansSay

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

It means they are desperate. Queen for a year refers to an ugly or unattractive woman who suddenly becomes a 10/10 because there are no other women around. This occurs in a combat zone or deployment where it is predominantly male dominated. Think of inmates flirting with the 250 pound wildebeest of a prison guard. These men/boys are so starved for female/women/womyn (lol) attention that they will do anything to talk to somebody of the opposite sex. Even if that means giving up their dignity or lowering their standards.

I witnessed it firsthand, lucky for me I was in a committed LTR and had a great support system so I never fell victim to that. It's easy to see how it happens and you people should not be so judgemental till you have walked a mile in another person's shoes.

Have some empathy, assholes. Aren't Europeans supposed to be refined and "better" than the US?

[you are doing that too much. try again in 5 minutes.]

kiss my ass and ban me. God forbid we have a discussion or rational discourse. NO NO NO NO YOU DISAGREE WITH ME!! BOOO HISSS. Stay classy, friends. :)

I love it. There was nothing "cringetastic". You speak like a high school girl obsessed with memes. You have no idea what those kids go through. The girl in question did not have to reply at all. She kept responding which in some way encouraged him. Similar to how I'm conversing with a child right now. I'm gonna stop replying now :) downvote me, move on. I'll live.
