This is the gist of it. The rest is my friend going off on him. [url]http://imgur.com/a/YXlYE[/url] [editline]15th May 2014[/editline] I think the third and fourth images are switched.
You know, although he certainly seems like a debbie downer, I can understand his perspective. I don't think I agree, but I see where he's coming from.
I mean I don't say this because Im unpatriotic. I love America, and I want is to do better. But he has consistently showed a lack of empathy in his comments over time. that's not good.
Sweden has this thing called GMU, which means "Grundläggande Militär Utbildning", which means "Basic Military Training". It's free, they pay you about 700 dollars a month for your time there (3 months), and they give you training with weaponry, lots of exercises, team-building, field training, whole bunch of neat shit. One of the guys who went there said they once had a 3-day field trip which included throwing grenades, and sitting around camp-fires. I've been thinking of signing up for it. Seems pretty fun, but at the same time I dunno. Having that on your CV can be useful for pretty much any job. But at the same time I'm a lazy piece of shit most of the time and waking up at early hours to go for a 10-mile jog is not my kind of lifestyle. :v: [editline]15th May 2014[/editline] Oh wait, neat, they have a shorter weekend version to try it out beforehand [url]http://www.forsvarsutbildarna.se/utbildning_31/military-weekend[/url] Might just give that a shot. Humm.

Sounds kind of totally awesome.
[QUOTE=notrabies;44813886]It sounds like you get to do all the cool stuff involved with military training but with less discipline and no commitment afterwards, AND it looks good for future jobs. Sounds kind of totally awesome.[/QUOTE] Pretty much. Still very disciplined though, and there are theoretical tests. Just like any education, though. I'll be fine as long as I don't have to ever touch math or biology ever again. :v: Also there is a tiny bit of commitment. If we ever break into all-out war with another country, I have a spot open, so to speak. I'm not sure if it's optional or not, though. I think I'll go to the weekend thing, they have a lot more information there, both on GMU and the other course called GU-F, which is more soldier-oriented (aka lots of stress and lots of shooting), but 2 weeks instead of 11.
[QUOTE=Taepodong-2;44812469]So girl I like agreed we should keep in touch over the summer. Texted her like two weeks ago, no response, haven't heard from her since. Literally unable to stop thinking about her, but I don't want to become that annoying guy who has to text her every day. The fuck do I do?[/QUOTE] Texted her shorty after I posted this, she didn't respond again. If there was a reason she wasn't responding I wish she'd tell me instead of just leaving me wondering what the fuck is going on. I'll probably try again in another couple weeks and if she doesn't respond then I'm just going to say fuck it, give up and go back to being forever alone.

I came, I saw, I got very disappointed. [t]http://i.imgur.com/Uz7WOdo.jpg[/t]
Air show in Rhode Island this weekend. F22, Blue Angels, USAF Heritage Flight, V22 Osprey, P51 Mustang, and others. Muy bien.
Airsoft causes me to lose friendships but it also makes me content with being a loner. eedit: holy crap imax is expensive.
I was interested in buying an M1 grenade launcher for my M1903 springfield.. I committed to buy it, and now that I have the money, the seller won't respond.. On FB, I can see he read all three messages about sending him the money, and now he won't reply to anything… Oh god I hope he doesn't back out.
This weekend I might be going to the range with my neighbour. So that means I'll probably get to put a few rounds through an SKS. Pretty excited for that because the biggest gun I've shot before was a 9mm. I'll get a video of my first mag so you can all laugh at how bad I am at handling the recoil.

It's getting to the point where I can't keep track of all the people I know or want to alk to on a regular basis
Tomorrow I may be firing a Mosin Nagant 91/30 for the first time. If my idiot friend doesn't wake up at 4 PM as usual.

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7bQwin3Vv0k[/media] If my job had a theme song this would be it. After all. I'm a detective.
You should make a montage of you tackling shoplifters to that song.
Nothing that exciting yet. Honestly, my Mon-Thu responsibilities are to literally stalk the other employees, check their transactions, who they talk to, what they do, how they do it, why they do it and shit like that. Retail NSA I keep getting unluckly and getting jobs for retailers that are Deterrence oriented versus Apprehension oriented. But at least they let me do apprehensions, as seldom as they may be and I don't get fired for not meeting an arrest quota.
Since we're sharing music, this is one of my childhood favorites. Bringin' the nostalgia right now. Plus the lyrics have meaning. [video=youtube;vddn9S7HHXg]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vddn9S7HHXg[/video]

[QUOTE=apoctank;44826984]Call her?[/QUOTE] I don't know, I just feel like that would end pretty awkwardly. Or she wouldn't answer and then I'd just feel fucking terrible. Plus I'd get charged for long distance if I called her while I have unlimited texting to anywhere in Canada and America.

Speaking of The 'Nam. [t]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/34238144/the%20nam.jpg[/t] I got the first 10 issues for $2 a piece. They're all really nice too, I'd probably grade them near mint.

Hi, I'm back_slash. I ruin everything I have good going for me because I get restless and freak out at the slightest bit of dysphoria.
