Soooooo, I got a recruitment letter in the mail for the U.S. Marines, and it said that if I filled out the little postcard I would receive a pamphlet containing information about the Marines and also, A FREE HAT AND/OR MARINE SUNGLASSES O: O: O:.... So, I like sunglasses, so I filled out the card and checked off the "YES I WOULD LIKE TO RECEIVE GLASSES" box and sent it in. Well it's about a week later I got my sexy glasses but now they KEEP CALLING MY HOUSE and I haven't had the chance to answer the phone myself yet but my parents keep answering and telling me they called, 4 days in a row. SO! When I actually do pick up the phone, what should I tell them without making myself look like a total jackass?

I finally managed to answer the phone when they called. The recruiter called me and we talked for about 20 minutes and he proceeded to talk about how the marines was a magical place full of joy and wonder, good for education, ect ect ect and I started with the excuses. I brought up school and he rebutted with the whole, "marines will pay for your education! It's like free college!", I talked about friends, family, work, he said that they would all be proud that I had joined the marines and continued to sugarcoat the Corps. Sooooooooo, eventually I just manned up and told him "look, I just wanted the free glasses, I didn't think you guys would actually call my house and send recruiters and stuff." He was quiet for a few seconds and started on the guilt tripping talking about how Marines are proud of what they do and they think it's insulting when a little punk abuses their free merch giving and blah blah blah. Eventually he said that some of my info is already on file and if I ever reconsider to visit his office in Charlotte and "we look forward to hearing from you in the future Mr. Candelario.
Problem solved :D thank you FPS for your vast infinite knowledge.
Tell them you plan on joining the army.
I want to punch you real hard.
Who voted Disagree is a redneck

I hate to say this, But You should have picked the Boonie hat, or sports watch, because you are now enlisted.:(
Tell them if they call again, you'll suicide bomb the white house.

Welcome to the marines son, you get sent to irag in a few days.
Tell them you are holding the sunglasses hostage and will send them back if they stop calling.
Don't call or the glasses get it.
You're fucked dude. A bus will be there in about a week to send you off to nam.
Sing the Soviet anthem.

That's a pretty HARD FUCKING CORE lesson...
oh well
Semper Fi.
Dont answer the phone.
So you got a recruitment letter, you filled it in and sent it back? And you didn't want to join? Well you're fucked. But I think that you can answer and say no or something. Or you could fake some mental problem or something.
Otherwise escape the country, move to Canada or Europe (or anywhere else).
