Hi milgoons! Dropping in to make a request. I remember a long time ago, while y’all were sharing stories of how incredibly homoerotic the military is, someone shared a picture of a boot straddling the ends of two beds, holding himself up with his core strength, while another boot laid on the floor beneath him, holding a knife pointing upward. They were making intense eye contact and gleeful grins. It’s the most perfectly stupid picture ever and I can’t find it!

There was a ssgt I worked with forever ago who'd stuff one end of a phone handset in his fly then give the handset to people saying they had a phone call. After they said hello a couple times he'd go 'lol you answered a phone call from my balls'. That Sgt did the most ironically homoerotic stuff while being one of the bigger unironic homophobes. The duality of man.

Thanks to the military, I know firsthand that it's possible to poo poo into a Gatorade bottle, as long as another man is holding it tightly against your anus.

I think the b hole is irregular enough to let enough air out. There was some spillage at first, but after a quick realignment all was okay. Shitter's a Master Chief (E-9, highest enlisted rank) now, bottle holder is a civilian working at a shipyard.

Pissing in bottles is not a rare occurrence on AWACS. I've never heard of anyone making GBS threads in bottles though...we'd start peeing in bottles to save room in the lav to avoid that.

Am I the only person wondering here how what sounds like a Chief Petty Officer of some sort was able to browbeat a civilian employee into holding a bottle up to his arse to poo poo into it in the first place? I know a lot of the civilian employees of the CF are unionized and I cannot see that sort of poo poo flying here in Canada because I am pretty sure their collective agreements only permit that kind of conduct with officers of flag or general rank. So if this was entirely voluntary, are we kink shaming two otherwise consenting adults? ... Oh, right, the idiocy is not supposed to come from inside the thread. Sorry.

The wording was that they're a master chief and civilian dock worker now, with the implication that at the time of the incident they hadn't yet achieved those lofty positions.

They were both E6s at the time, sea-dad (holder) and sea-son (shitter). The guy that went to shipyard was like a nuke test engineer, not like a Bubba. Sorry for the lack of context.

You don't stop being a sea child just because you've been on the boat for a couple years and you're a nuke. You stop being a sea child when your daddy leaves to grab a pack of smokes (shore duty) and never comes back. I was an orphan tho so ymmv.

I remembered this story the other night and couldn't stop giggling about it. In a different life I worked for an ISP and I remember one of the supervisors there leaving. I wasn't really too close with him but I asked why, and he said that 'towing my car was the worst mistake this place ever made.' I ran into him again a few years later, and after that I asked a mutual friend how he was doing. It seemed that his life wasn't going that well. He'd gotten into trouble with the Mongrel Mob (local gang) and they'd presented him an ultimatum. Either he grew weed for them, or he lost his kneecaps. He'd chosen to grow weed. I was wondering, what the gently caress kind of trouble did he get into with them? Seemed like he owed them money and hadn't been able to pay it back. I figured he'd had to be in a pretty bad way to ever consider approaching the Mob for money, so I asked a little more. He'd taken out a loan from the Mob because his credit was shot to hell, to the point where he couldn't get a loan from anyone else. What was it he took out a loan for, do you think? Medical bills? Renovations? Property? None of the above. He took out a loan from the Mongrel Mob to buy....... a car. A Toyota Altezza (Lexus IS200 in the states). The same car that he quit his job out of spite over. Which then led to him not being able to pay the loan back. I hope he enjoyed the car.
