War has shaped our world, down to our very existence. Most of us ambulate mindlessly through our lives blissfully ignorant of this reality; some us have actually been in a war, doing war stuff. War is the most expensive undertaking in all of human history; nations rise and fall, people thrive or perish, family trees are fertilized or pruned, threads like this get posted.

Until today, I've been fortunate enough to never being in a war zone doing war poo poo, yet I will never meet an uncle who I hear was one cool cat. Got to play Gene Krupa's drum kit before he got his skull opened up by a brainwashed German teenager with a rifle. My dad was in the big one too. He got court martialed twice. I've had my drink spilled when a pack of pugnacious Iraqi War vets started a fight in a bar. War is an insatiable yet avoidable black hole until today. It is the event horizon, definitely a one-way trip.

A back hole is made of the heaviest matter in the universe, and my heart is made heavier than that to inform you that I am, very much against my will, in a state of war. My spirits sink and my gorge rises in trying to grasp the fact that war is being waged upon me. War is literally at my door.

While my reg date is just a punk, I'm amongst the oldest goons here, up there with the goon who ran over his cat with his Harley. I've had a good run so far: haven't achieved much, haven't hurt anybody. I still look good and smell nice. I don't deserve this. I have only so many heartbeats left before c-walking off this mortal coil. Heartbeats that should be providing the blood pressure to swell my penis are now being squandered on the bloated metastasizing cancer of war. War loving sucks.

My upstairs neighbor is a crazy evil bitch. Called the cops at 10pm with a loving noise complaint about me. I'm so pissed I can barely spell wtf!

STAY TUNED FOR MORE WAR poo poo. I GOTTA GO TO loving WORK.

The Personal Cost of War: Low. Modern war is designed such that the folks back home don't really feel it happening (applicable to 1st world aggressor nations).

The Personnel Cost of War: Actually... uh, also pretty dang low relative to the past. Seriously like only a couple thousand usually? Chump change on the historical scale.



*In a Quark voice*: the cost of war is at an all time low!

The role in war matters a lot more now too. The poor bastard on the ground dodging his 'allies' and always having to be alert for bombs in the road has it rough.

The ton of people who obliterate 10 dudes in a pickup truck from 500 miles away with a drone, missile or helicopter don't really have it that bad.

A noise complaint isn't war unless you make it so. Try playing your music at a lower volume and turning it off before 10, Rambo.

1777 - Valley Forge: American troops suffer shortages of food and clothing in harsh winter conditions. Diseases and hastily erected shoddy lodging take an additional toll. Most of the horses and some men do not live through the ordeal. The troops persevere through the long months of winter and bring the fight to the enemy in the coming Spring.

1942-1945 - Pacific Theater: American marines engage Japanese forces in some of the most nightmarish fighting imaginable. Frequent bench landings and dense jungle fighting take a heavy toll both physically and psychologically. The casualties rate is high. The enemy does not give an inch and fights far beyond what most armies would consider reasonable. They do not seem to understand surrender. Every battle is won only with a high price in blood.

2018: Some troops have to sit around for a week or two. They are not in any danger and are well supplied, but a little bored. Whataburger is denied to them.

I was in a war once. I don't know how I got out of it without losing a piece of me or my life. Shrapnel can cut through you like a carving knife through the breast of a turkey.This happened two years ago on these very forums and it seems like only yesterday that the flame war erupted and nearly cost me my avatar.
