I've always had the utmost respect for our service members, regardless of how douchy some can be. It is such a shame that such individuals that should be held in high esteem cheapen the honor that comes with the uniform and service.

That's because the uniform is a tail magnet, or so they think. Go to a cushy assignment like Walter Reed and Belvoir and you'll see how self entitled everyone is.

Once knew a medic reservist who told a chick at the airport he was a ranger and a sniper. This was right after basic on the way to AIT. Needless to say she wasn't impressed.

Yup, no shortage of douches on this base whatsoever. It is really funny though when they cut you off only to get pulled over in one of the numerous speed traps on base. Especially next to bldg 300.......

Dude tell me about it! I had an ass hole come in my bar one time and he asked my employee if soldiers get a discount, I told him to tell him no, then he made a big deal about it, I mean, I know it might be tough in the army and you think the whole world owes you, but dude, I didn't make you join the army, you chose that so I don't owe you shit, life is what you make it. no offense but just because your a soldier, your still human like everyone else.

Yeah...sorry about that. I promise not all of the DoD are pricks. For the most part I think the majority of us are pretty humble. I only ask for a mil discount on big items like car parts and such. Other than that I really try to keep my job on the downlow. Especially at the bar. I like to get blacked out and piss myself like everyone else. Most of the time people expect a little bit more decorum out of military members. But I can't deliver, I'm young and like to get shitfaced.

Must be nice, lol. They are ridiculous with that crap though. The speed limit alongside Bldg. 300 that they love to enforce so much is 15mph... School zones don't make you slow down that much! Is it just that gov't employees don't have the mental capacity and situational awareness that a child does? (Don't answer that... )

They're the same as regular cops. I'm constantly getting pulled over because my car LOOKS fast. I wish cops had to at least know SOMETHING about cars. I only have 200hp, leave me alone.

Got stomped on by a 10-12 Mustang GT Cali-Special. Caught him at an uphill light, didn't even blimp the throttle and he launched bat-out-of-hell squeeling well into 2nd before he realized I didn't even move off the line and let off.

Had some kid in a Tc try to mess with me on my way home from Winston Salem yesterday. He'd get right on my bumper, or pull next to me and rev. Once the speed limit hit 70, I dropped it into 3rd and blasted my exhaust into his open window. Asshole move, I know, BUT he did leave me alone after that. Lol

went on a spirited drive yesterday and got caught in traffic on the highway. as soon as it started to free up, a red mazda3 hatch with a fartcan rolls up right behind me, gets in the fast lane, and zooms.
