    The Music Thread

    Society's standards on music are wierd like that I guess. A girl I was seing last year asked me if I had any secrets, my reply to hear was, "I'm a huge Gaga fan." Afterall, as a straight man, it's againstthe rules or something for me to get down to Gaga.

    Well, 'aight, check this out, dawg. First of all, you throwin' too many big words at me, and because I don't understand them, I'm gonna take 'em as disrespect. Watch your mouth and understand that Lady Gaga is amazing and great music.

    Can someone clue me into DubStep. I've heard a lot about it, so I figured I would check it out. My only question is what would be a good start or track to listen too?

    NFL

    I got to say, I could care less about this game. I don't care about either team in the Superbowl this year. Personally looking forward to Man U and Chelsea on Sunday more than the Superbowl.
  6. I was moved up from section leader and put in charge of my own platoon today. My first reaction was to look at the officer in charge and say, "Seriously bro? You do know who I am?" This should be fun.
  7. I've been playing the Twisted Metal demo, and I got to say, it's a lot of fun. The levels are huge, took a couple of plays before I drove the whole map. I'm dissapointed to hear from previews that one player mode won't have much in the way of a story. The one player level on the demo, to me atleast, is pretty difficult. It's basically you against 8 enemies. The enemies don't shot each other, only you. So basically you have to keep moving and just take pop shots when you can, if you stop too long to focus on one guy, next thing you know you're getting hit my 4 specials at once. I guess that's my only complaint, as the online mode is a lot of fun.
  8. Since it's Feburary, here are some Valentine's Day tips.
  9. I honestly don't think I've ever been this angry before. I feel nothing but rage and want to stab this bitch in the face. Long story short, I've been friends with my buddy for 12 years, and because of such, I put up with his sister even though I hate her. She personifies every reason why I hate women in the Marine Corps, she has never done anything but thinks she deserves everything. Now her and I have gotten into it before, and because of such I do my best to avoid her. Some of our aurguments in the past have been about me finding it disrepsectful that she goes around calling herself a combat veteran even though she has never seen combat, and the fact that she tries to further her modeling aspirations by using the Marine Corps. However she has finally cost me lose it. IN her time in she did one "deployment", I use the qoutations because it was to Bagram Air Base. Let me explain, Bagram is about as far away from Afghanistan as you can be while still in the borders, haha. She lived in an air conditioned room, ate real food that was freshly prepared at a chow hall, and enjoyed using the internet everyday. However, appearantly that was too much for her, as she claims to have ptsd and even used that claim to get out of he Marine Corps early. Now that I have explained that, let me get to the part that made me rage yesterday. She is currently collecting 30% disability benefits form the VA every month, and had the audacity to say she deserves more! Fuck you bitch and your fake ass ptsd! I have buddies that were shot and have shrapnel and are fighting with the VA to get their claims, and you have the gall to complain about your 30% you are starting to get this month! Fuck you, you fake ass Marine. You don't deserve a penny, and you want more! She is doing nothing but taking money that could be going to people who deserve it! FUCK! You don't know shit about anything, you've never pulled a trigger a day in your life, you've never killed or seen a friend killed, you spent all day joking around overseas playing board games and sitting on Facebook, but yeah, it was tough, wasn't it? There are just no words to describe my anger, and I just needed a place to vent. Unfortunately she isn't the first to scam money form the VA and she won't be the last. I swear if you even shows your face next time I visit home, I will cut a dickhole in your chest and fuck your heart!

    Randomness

    Wouldn't surprise me if that's true. PIlot's are the cockiest mother fuckers I've ever met. Story time- Last year we had a cobra team doing hellfire runs for us so we could get picked up. After one run, he turns around for another, nose points down and launches some more rockets, when the ATC comes over the radio, "Disengage! Disengage! You were not cleared for another run!" With out missing a beat the pilot comes over the radio with, "Sorry, I couldn't hear you over the sound of how awesome I am." Probably the greatest thing I heard last time I was over.
  11. Wait until the day you discover grey hairs don't just grow on your head...
  12. Curious if anyone else has tried the beta. Personally, I didn't care for it.
  13. I'm surprised Tintin didn't get a nomination. Also love reading all the articles about how In The Land of Blood and Honey got "snubbed", haha. Nevermind the fact that the movie was universally panned by critics, but hey, it's Angelina Jolie so it deserves a nomination right.

    So the chowhall on base had a sign advertising a special dinner prepared today in honor of MLK Jr.... Fried Chicken.
  15. -First the old stand by I have every year of getting bigger and stronger (what can I say, I'm addicted to the gym and always try to do better) -If I end up being stateside this year - get my drivers liscence back (I haven't had it since 2007) -Stop the one night stands, as much fun as they are, I'm almost 30 and it's time to look into a serious relationship
  16. An airstrike up close and personal from earlier this year
  17. Man, what a shocking turn of events. In all seriousness though, as an amateur body builder, I can tell you that women do not naturally look like that. I've always said she was either taking steroids or is very good at tucking it back.

    This was just said to me.. by a grown man...that I work with.... This takes the cake for the most random thing I've heard.
  19. Not quite "Get of my lawn!", but it's close. you know
  20. Playing Ico/Shadow of the Colossus Collection. Shadow is a lot easier than I remember. Probably because the first time I played it on PS2, I didn't know about the shining lizards and fruit power ups. The last boss was a bitch when faced with bare bones stats.
  21. First time I was in my yard and yelled at someone to slow down.
  22. Funny Halloween story: So I got back to the states on Oct. 17, just in time for Halloween. A guy at work, nick-named the "buff nerd", knows I'm an anime fan, and turned me on to Bleach. For whatever reason I had never gotten around to watching it before. Other than the copious amount of filler episodes, I enjoyed the show. So I decided to go as Ichigo in Bankai form with Hollow mask this year. So on Halloween, I end up winning a costume contest at the local bar, good times. After the contest I have a guy walk up to me and say, "Nice costume, my little brother watches that cartoon. He's 12.", in a sarcastic matter. So barely taking my eyes off my drink I proceed to say, "I work special operations in the Marine Corps. I've been in combat in Iraq, Afghanistan, and have toured the Pacific. I've killed men. So if you've come to make a joke, I'm pretty sure my job and my "man card" will trump anything you've ever done in your life." The look on his face was price-less as he slinked away.
  23. Why is it that every time I get issued a weapon, I receive it nasty as fuck? However, every time I go to turn a weapon in, I have to clean it until it's inspection ready? Who keeps getting my clean ones, and who keeps giving me dirty ones?
  24. SIgh... Remember when this series was about a normal guy in shitty situations, and barely made it out. Those were the days. Now apparently a normal cop can take down a fighter jet.
