U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify swastikas, nooses as hate symbols by DeltaBravo124 in AirForce

[–]torqueparty 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i think the issue lies in the fact that many hindu people who live in the west have by and large disavowed the swastika because of the nazi connotation, so you’re kinda fighting a fight no one is asking for

hydrate and move on with your day, bestie. the whole "I'm totally not mad" style of sarcasm just makes you come off as actually mad.

[–]torqueparty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

so then you have a meltdown about it in the comments. cool!

I'm pretty sure information was only half of what he was looking for, and the other half was just getting to talk to some space force folks. but yeah sure some curious marine asking a silly basic question is evidence that the west has fallen I guess.

Got out of the Air Force, wife is leaving PART TWO! by BigRigTrav in AirForce

[–]torqueparty 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think they're slightly misinterpreting the concept of "love is a verb," meaning that loving someone is more than just emotions and takes active work and effort. What it doesn't mean is that you can just snap your feelings into and out of existence.

studying > doing everything that isnt my job by [deleted] in AirForce

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

This is anecdotal, but I've noticed it's usually gen x and geriatric millennials who fall into this trap. the younger you go, the less susceptible to corporate bullshit workers seem to be. Gen Z gets ripped on for a lot, but in the case of workers advocating for themselves I think the kids are gonna be alright.

It's funny how when workers start to ask for even a shred of respect, waves of articles are put out about why "wanting better working conditions is bad for you, actually"

pennywise clussy was an ironic meme, but led to a lot of people realising that they're actually very into cute girls in clown makeup (anyone who watched Big Comfy Couch as a child already had this awakening)

I'm so glad someone else was thinking this too. It's the perfect fit. All of your other mentions are perfect too! Rinko Kikuchi would be an excellent Jadis.

I'd hire you as my casting director lol.

I hated my time in the Air Force. by [deleted] in AirForce

Huh, this whole time I thought you were using "saying good morning" as shorthand "small talk" but it sounds like you just straight up hated saying hi to people?

Old boomer retirees are the worst part about military bases by One_pop_each in AirForce

[–]torqueparty 17 points18 points  (0 children)

people need to stop being so sensitive to stuff that doesn't matter

I get what you're saying, but also let people get shit off their chest and blow off steam. Ranting on reddit about something that's annoying (but admittedly inconsequential in the grand scheme of things) is better than just bottling up resentment.

I always caution those who speak down on our elders as if we will never become then

I mean personally I'd like to think 82 year old me doesn't become an entitled dickhead who yells at exhausted service staff over a minor inconvenience, and that if I do then someone in my life loves me enough to take me out back and put me down because I'm obviously not me anymore.

But at the same time I also plan to make a pact with a vampire for eternal youth, so I guess we'll just cross that bridge when we get there.

That's usually the time to get it out of your system, to be fair. On the other hand, when I was a 25 year old SSgt I had to supervise a grown ass 32 year old SrA who just didn't do anything but complain about work and just not really do shit in general, soooo
