Don't be mean. I promise to do my best to judge that fairly.

I find it utterly deplorable when I see army recruiters at cons. They're always talking to teenagers who are impressionable and feel bullied. I always walk by and tell the teens to not die for someone else's stock portfolios
I remember something very similar. If they did that to my kid now I will be very angry about it because it's ridiculous. At least back in the 90s when this happened to me there wasn't really any ongoing conflicts, not like now where you're basically guaranteed to have to go fight somewhere.
Bruh I took the asvab after getting picked up off the street and being bought tacos.
I was living in my car and a recruiter would drop off no perishable care packages until I said fuck it 😂
I mean tacos is tacos.
The only military recruitment I've interacted with is ads and I'm already weirded out by those. The US really is on a different level.
