Any soldier of worth I’ve ever known, …any true soldier, wouldn’t advertise their profession as such.
Wannabe.
Nothing more.
This screams boot to me, lol. I bet you they financed it at something ridiculous too.
Is there an r/JustBootThings on Lemmy or Kbin? Some of the shit on there was hilarious.
I said the same thing. My ex-husband was military (though not boot at all) and you could absolutely find this truck in the px parking lot. Probably driven by a 20 year old with a kid and a pregnant wife who goes shopping off base in his uniform solely so people will thank him for his service.
Yeah that shit was pretty much the epitome of r/JustBootThings
We were all boots once. Some of us grew out of it.
Boot?
Boot is a derisive term, in this case it's referring to young inexperienced people fresh out of boot camp. The mindset refers to doing trashy and/or foolish things usually coupled with a strong sense of entitlement ("thank me for my service!").
Not sure who downvoted you, nothing wrong with asking questions to learn stuff.
Something typical of a person fresh out of boot camp.
Fresh outa boot camp.
Nothing worse than a moto ass boot.
100% he's a POG too
Pineapple orange guava?
No, it's that thing that was popular in the 90s:
Pogue. The word is Pogue. As in Pogie Bait.
POG is a backronym and must be obliterated with prejudice.
wanna bet he's a 92f or some shit?
maybe a 74a who's huffed too much ojt
No true Scotsman...
And the Ares is quotes, blegh.
Exactly. Most actual soldiers would say Marine, etc. rarely use soldier.
Unless they are in the Army. Then they would rightfully call themselves a soldier. Soldier, Airman, Marine, Seaman, Guardian and Spacie. I guess not sure on the last one
Guardian... haha... Finally the semen have someone they can laugh at.
Eh, a lot of us did stupid stuff like put a CIB sticker on or something. This is a whole 'nother level.
