    Interestingly enough I am a "POG". I however did not spend my time on a large a FOB and left the wire routinely . I was in Iraq (twice) in 04 and 07. I have 10 brothers that didn't make it back. None if them touted their service for self recognition nor should anyone else. You post your unit name and info on a car forum like its a badge of honor. It's your fucking duty. You're the kind of asshole I see off post with your dog tags hanging out in civilian clothing. I'm sure your Facebook is littered with pictures of you holding your rifle low ready with those Oakley provided sun glasses and a goofy fucking grin on your face like your Gods gift to the country. The fact of the matter is you're not. If you truly served selflessly you wouldn't need to show off anything.

    So next time before you make assumptions, take a step back and and think a little. You really sound like a jackass right now. Your attitude leads me to believe you're <E4 in grade and have much to learn.

    You've seen and done worse than me, both have seen and done much worse than this guy. I agree that he hasnt been in long and is still full of that BS they give you in bootcamp.



    BTW, after I left AD I joined the guard (biggest mistake of my life), a couple guys in my shop were in the initial push into Iraq. The stories they tell are epic.

    OP has problems. My stepdad has been in the Army for 27 years, and he doesnt go around looking for handouts. One question how long have you been in the military?

    Do they not teach simple grammar in the military ? Or was it so hard you came back retarded ?

    I almost signed for the marines when I was 18...I'm thankful I was arrested just before I did. The idea of fighting for a country that doesn't help me at all isn't something I feel is worth being blown up for. Blame all the hardships on Obama all you want sin fix but every president has their own agenda. regardless of who would have entered the Oval Office we would still be in this shitty economic situation. Only president to lead and have a successful term.....bill Clinton....i bet congress is wishing they would have just let the dude get a sloppy blow job now.

    I honestly don't see what was wrong with the op's first post about free beer....he's letting his fellow soldiers where they can all get wasted for free I don't see anything wrong with getting wasted for free. The other shit just seems like he has some mental issues..just my .2 cents. Carry on flamers...

    I think the worst part, is seeing the guys that haven't/wont' deploy acting like they deserve something equal to boots on the ground. I will, more than likely, never deploy. That's how my MOS is. I feel like crap even talking to my friends that are over there now. Do I deserve a free drink, when I think about what they're doing over there as I'm even typing this? I think not.

    This guy starts a thread saying that soldiers get free beer at a bar then gets flamed for serving in the war.

    Two things wrong with your "summarization" of the thread. Firstly is that this guy is protecting our right to be able to respond with our own thoughts instead of what government wants us to respond with. And secondly, you're way off base in why the thread went the way it did.

    Just as anyone else is allowed, I can voice my opinion however I feel. Why does that make you so mad? How did my responses affect your life to the point where you're name-calling? Are you going to go to work distraught and upset because of my posts?

    By the way, I'll not return the "favor."

    na, dude only said wooo free beer and someone made a smart comment and it all went down hill from there.

    There's no point in getting angry over people on the internet. People will talk out their ass when a person isn't around, and the net is no different.
    And I'm not calling you a douche to make you feel bad I'm calling you a douche to let you know you're being a douch. If I was going to try to make you feel bad I'd say something like you should just take that shitty outdated civic that you've wasted your money and time on to the scrap yard and cross your toes you get $100 for recycling trash.

    but no really stop being such a douche for cool points.

    Thus making their pay lower. furthermore who says they don't get the care they deserve or a decent paycheck? you're wrong again. They have better healthcare than most of the people in the united states and if you're in the military a while you're paycheck isn't skimpy. You have no idea what you're talking about.

    yup. there is a big difference between expecting free shit, and taking advantage of free shit.
    op was taking advantage of free shit, not expecting it.
    if someone is giving you a military discount and you're not taking it then you're retarded.
    These people act like they are too good for something free.
    god forbid that a $2-3 dollar beer makes a bar go out of business, if anything it will bring more people in.

    I like how you didn't actually respond to my reply on how my opinions have ruined your day. I'm guessing you're not understanding what transpired. It was brought on by an unnecessary comment, I agree (but not by me, you see, so why only "attack" ME?), but the true colors of the OP shined out after that. That's when it went down hill.

    The only comment about the rest of your post I have is that you couldn't make me feel bad. You're like the others. Only put down my car because of your (unfounded) dislike for me. It's all good, though.

    NO. He was not expecting it. That bar was OFFERING/GIVING it to him.
    I'm sure he didn't go to the bar and ask them for a free beer because he is military.....
    If that's the case then he's a POS free loader, but if the bar is just giving it to you why not take it?

    I believe what blankcd was referring to when the OP was coming off in other posts about expecting free stuff. I know I would never expect free anything, myself. Free things are great perks, but to expect it is........

    OP has implied time and time again that members of the military should be entitled to free things just because of their service.

    In the first post before any of the bashing it wasn't he wasn't implying that he was entitled to it.
    I don't see why he got those kind of replies by simply saying if you go here and you're in the military you get free beer.
    People managed to take this thread off topic and bash him for taking advantage of free beer.
    even after he got negative feedback he still said that if it's free why not. after some more bashing he lashed out and said he was entitled to it.
    If i was in the military i would take advantage of free things offered to me and military discounts. although i wouldn't expect it.

    I'm with you on this part. Nothing wrong with offerings of gratuitous services. Just the expectation of them.

    By the way, I never actually bashed the guy.

    i'll make it simple for someone like you.
    Your post did not ruin my day it only ruined a minute of my day, and it ruined that minute of my day because all you've been doing throughout this thread is randomly blurting your opinions even though no one cares. I also choose you because you are a douche in every post I read of yours unless you are talking about that shiny terd civic. And people put down your car because it's an invaluable, unwanted, unappealing civic. It's terribly ugly so I'm guessing that's why they put it down (just a guess though). So I hope unlike me a minute of your day isn't ruined because you're a douche and drive an hideous civic, because we all know that would just be the end of the world.

    All the new kids call QD a douche. It's a phase, you'll get over it.

    "He's a nice guy once you get to know him" aka he's an ass hole, but you'll get use to it.

    I picked apart your posts and i couldn't find anything negative that you said. i agree with you on most parts. i don't really see how you come off as a douche.
    I think this thread just needs to die out. it was bad in the beginning and it's not going to get any better.
    looking back. nobody really "bashed" him.

    that post just seemed like it was directed toward the OP in kind of a condescending way, but now that i went through it i see what you mean.

    It was directed to all who fall under that umbrella. That's why I didn't directly respond to the OP on my opinion.

    Yep. He's one of the few I've seen on car forums that seems to express legitimate constructive criticism...



    that or he's the greatest troll of all time. However I think it's the first.




    About the OP however. He makes those that served for better reasons look bad. He's the kinda guy that; wall to wall counseling would pay dividends in corrective training back in the day.

    This is what I was trying to get across with my first post. As being an outsider, I see it as deserved.
