Guys, I have to admit something:

A few months back, I was having a difficult time in school which was being compounded by a few other issues. Generally I was not having a good time, so I did the unthinkable: I called up a recruiter. A reserve recruiter. A Navy reserve recruiter. I saw it as a way out, a way to let the pressure valve go. Basically, I planned to go in as the equivalent rate to the one I had in the Marines, which would allow me to get to a unit faster than it would if I were to retrain. I went so far as to going to MEPS for the initial physical and getting my PS package submitted. I was pretty committed to getting back in. Eventually, I made it through the semester, took a vacation to Mexico and later California, and got my head screwed on straight.

Realizing that my problems weren't really that bad, I called up the recruiter and told him that I really didn't want to go through with it. Luckily he was cordial about it, and said that if I ever wanted back in that the Navy would be there. I thanked him for his time and effort. As it stands now, I am still a free man on the land, peepin butts and shaving bc I can't grow a beard.

welp that's my story

don't feel bad, godholio is getting nostalgia4AFBlue & is seriously considering recommissioning in the ANG for REASONS.

this wasn't maury.

Seems like every time I go to the VA they have man-bashing cuntflaps running their goddamn mouths on tv about how bad "they man is" and whatnot.

I would honestly prefer Fox News lying to me for the few hours I have to spend in that shithole once in a while.

motherfucking Paternity Court, that's what that lovely show was.

that sounds horrible man.
Also, join the hangout chat that we got running.
Shim can vouch for it being a safe place to vent without getting gangpiled by douchebags.
Worse case, if some dudes start loving with you in the hangout chat, we make a new hangout chat & exclude those fucks from it.

if you do decide to join, use a burner email account. 80% of the people who joined the hangout failed that basic intelligence test.

Okcupid got me the current girlfriend. 8 years younger than me, 6 younger than the ex-wife. Trading in for a newer model was a good decision.

as long as you don't grant power of attorney to the current girlfriend while on the AT, it's all good spongebob.

no back pain, no lactose intolerance, no meds required to keep me alive, no interactions with the VA at all.
i think the last one is whats keeping me from the 1st three things.

I honestly don't know if I'd rather go somewhere on spring break or just do what I am and getting sleep, drinking beer and playing vidya games. I should start studying for my quantum test next week.

feynman diagram out your dilemma & turn it in to your professor for extra test credit.

goodwill and amvets are getting whatever's left on monday. there's a book donation drop box nearby, but it looks rarely emptied judging by the piles of boxes of books sitting next to them.

book stuff: is there a mckays books by memphis yet or is memphis too ghetto for them?
i was really impressed by mckays when i drove through tennessee.

With two grand I could buy a gently used Browning Citori O/U. I've shot trap with one, it's an absolute dream.

check out benelli shotguns. they get insanely expensive, but my god are they smooth.
i'm pretty decent with a remington 870 trap wingmaster that a retired benelli gunsmith modded out for me with adjustable cheek & buttstock.
