I have nothing but respect and gratitude for those people who sign up to die, who are willing to fall on their sword, for doing what they think is right.Lets not pretend that the government uses the military for anything just, though. Its not about "defending the mainland from foreign threats", its about guarding our economic interests overseas.

My great grandfather died at Normandy while in a Tank. Man, it felt so good today though. We were doing a two minute silence in class and some dicks decided to try and be funny halfway through, I guess expecting some banter. Everyone else in the class just glared at them for a solid minute and they didn't say anything for the rest of the class.Feels pretty good man.

It ended the same way though.

All-in-all the conditions were good, but the joke fell flat because most people probably didn't understand it or expect it when it came out. I ended up looking like a retard for reacting by asking a question out loud with the !?
