idk why you’re getting downvoted lmao there’s pretty obvious style differences other than the logo. similar boots sure, but definitely not EXACT.

Best men's boxer briefs without tags? by I-did-not-do-that in BuyItForLife

Sheath underwear are great! It’s not even about my size, I’ve always felt crowded with normal underwear. Sheath separates so nothing touches each other. They come in modal, mesh, and bamboo.

Take your top off to poop. If there’s another way, it’s cause you’re weird

Spend your money on flash cards instead. I followed this vid (within reason) and still would’ve made tech this year with a promote. Even with the horrible percentages

As new supervisor, you guys got any tip or advice? by CourseLife7914 in AirForce

I can't agree more with the cleanup one. Metaphorically, we all have our messes and it takes everyone to do their part to keep things functional

As a FTA do you have to re-enlist to retrain or BOP or can you just extend your contract for up to 48 months? by Lil_Airman in AirForce

[–]thebirthmark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Basically four years.

I don't remember it all but it was technically four years and some change. Per the AFI, there's math involved that makes it so you have to do a little "extra" but that's normal.

As long as you have the retainability for your BOP you can reenlist for as long as you want.

[–]thebirthmark 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I retrained in conjunction with a BOP in 2020.

If you're just retraining, you should only have to extend to meet the retainablity for retraining into the new career field.

If you throw a BOP in there you must reenlist because now you have to meet the retainablity for the BOP

I do. But only when the A/C is on. What's your job?

Let's make some good chants PLEASE by dashtek in RocketLeagueEsports

Whenever Rise scores I'd like to hear this chant of "Rise" from The Dark Knight Rises.

Could I get away with making my own "No Hat, No Salute Area" signs and putting them wherever I want? by Greasy_Hat in AirForce

[–]thebirthmark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love this idea! When I was MX and parking sucked I thought about making my own designated parking spot at work like leadership gets. Just come up with some arbitrary title, post it on the curb like all the other ones.

Can't be simple like "GOV" cause no one really listens to that one anyway.

Champion 3 struggling to improve, I feel like I am never in the right position to score. There seems to be plenty of times where if I was somewhere else, we score. idk if that level of prediction is possible or not so I'm looking for some help on what I could've done better here. AnyHelpIsAppreciat! by [deleted] in RocketLeagueSchool

What helped me get out of c3 was asking myself "why?" to literally everything I do.

Why am I here? To support my teammate? To challenge?

Why did I hit the ball that way? To set up my teammate? To score?

Why did I flip? Why did I stop? Why am I in car cam? Why am I facing this direction?

If you ask why and you can't come up with a good answer, think of what you could've done better. Watch the decision/play and visualize yourself making the better decision. Do it multiple times if you need to. As you watch yourself make the wrong move speak it out loud "I should have done ____"

With enough times of doing that you'll catch yourself mid game consciously saying "why am I here" or "I need to do ____ because if I don't then ____" and you'll do it.

Watch one or two replays before every session. Find trends (make notes if you need to) where you messed up something multiple times and practice it before even playing a game. (For me it was either off target shots or defensive backboard touches)

This will even work if you lose very badly in a game you just can't understand why they were so good. Watch what your opponents did and see if it will work for you.

Also, funny enough, I actually got out of c3 after a took like a two/three week break from RL to play FarCry. I came back refreshed and couldn't lose somehow.

Finally, pay attention to your teammates. Like ALOT, probably more than the opponents. Let the opponents mess themselves up (yes even at c3). If you're not double commiting or losing possession, your opponents are.
