Random irrelevant posts aside, I gotta say reading that OP totally made my day. Self-appreciation is such a relative thing: Be juxtaposed with the most "perfect" person in every sense in the world and you want more; but when you have an African child with malaria who has to eat what he finds and struggle to survive, you begin to think that your life is worth living.
Not offending the OP in any way, but that post was full of win!
[QUOTE=JohnnyMo1;16872092]Not really. Nihilism means that you understand they don't have any objective value. Doesn't mean you can't have morals anyway.[/QUOTE]
True, true. Hadn't thought of it that way.

Oh hell yeah
EDIT
I'm seriously considering joining the armed forces after reading that.
Your username says it all. Bad luck.
Nah, good luck, get them terrorists. Even so you only just joined facepunch this year in March. Not sure I care over the internet, but for now.

:allears:
I always liked you, big dumb american, good luck out there :D
Also, props for one the of best written OP's I've seen on facepunch. I normally skip over posts about people's lives because they are badly written, but I made an exception for you, and was not disappointed.

Don't knock him. When you open your eyes to cynicism you notice how pathetic governments, moral standing, views and even the ways we act is pretty saddening and sheepish.
The TV tells you that you are fighting for your country, freedom and democracy.
You're actually fighting for money, economy and power.
Say that to his face offline, motherfucker, and not online, and see what happens :-<

God fucking damnit, not this again.
[QUOTE=Wangman;16872256]You switched sides quickly.
Oh wait, Russian name. It's a spy.[/QUOTE]
Hmm, switched sides? What do you mean? And well I am a British man, I could be part of the MI6.
Ohohoh I see your editing skills there.

You have no actual argument so you just resort to homophobic insults. Way to go.
Hey guys, whats going on?

I fail to see how physical intimidation changes reality.

had to make this thread after really reading alde's comedic material
[QUOTE=salty peanut;16870470]You're like the tenth person to say that :v:[/QUOTE]
So? Big deal.

FACT: You have no original content. Your most likely pulling content off a search engine.
Salute.

Internet dramatica.
[QUOTE=Ragy;16860227]Because he's not like you who only thinks about him self.
And joining the army isn't a "waste of life". Those men over there have more balls than you.[/QUOTE]
There isn't much use for those balls if they get pumped full of lead.

No, actually this is my 12th.
Don't they have internet in the army, if they do that would be cool if he could post or something in the middle of a fight.

And get heavily disciplined for it.
[QUOTE=j00g0t0wnd;16860384]Best of luck to you. It's a shame that the U.S. has to be involved in everything outside of their borders.[/QUOTE]
Maybe you hate it now, but what would you think if the U.S. didn't help any other countries besides itself? Sometimes the wars are for wrong reasons, but the times they're for right reasons I'm sure your glad that we are involved so much.
the army should let you update your twitter mid-firefight imo
