I'm sure. They're simple, targeted, and require no interpretation. DIRECTIONS: Just post and let them voice all the unmitigated venom that doesn't fit well into discussion.

I'm sure it must be comforting to you to rationalize that those who support what you hate are just unthinking drones who are incapable of your level of self analysis and insight.

9th, you need to learn to use the Edit button.
Double posting is rude. If you cannot figure out that they are meant, partially, as tongue-in-cheek humor... there is no help for you. |

Patents can only be pushed so far. Just remember they brought you in to this world....and can take you out....then make a replacement.

this is nothing new though. army recruiters have always lied. they are non-volunteers for the position and are held to quotas. not that it is an excuse, i'm just saying. 15 years ago an army recruiter told a guy sitting next to me that he better remember to take his tennis racquet to boot camp for his "off time". i laughed.

I knew a Marine who was told he'd go to Paris. Swore up and down, absolutely, Paris. You will definitely go to Paris.
Marine recruits from the east go to Parris Island, South Carolina for training. |

i went in the USAF. the recruiters are all volunteer and have a a different type of quota system. my recruiter told me "yeah, it sucks and you are going to hate me for about a year, but then you'll wake up one day and realize that it is all worth it." she was right.
