OT: Galactic sterilisation

[President_Elect_Shang]

Yes “Loser” that is the obvious, I don’t think that anyone here could have missed the flaw in the logic but thanks anyway. Did you happen to notice the flaw in his reasoning? Or was that only obvious to me as I thought it was just as clear as mine was.

Fyron I am not sure what you read, so allow me to cut and paste his words.

Puke said: “3 - not-so-smart enlistees re-enlist, and go on to become officers”

That sounds to me to be the same as:

If you are a carrier soldier (you reenlist) than you are a moron? So what part of that did you miss?
Or maybe this will help:

“4 - future smart generations of enlistees see that only morons have made it through to the top ranks, and leave after their first tour, again leaving only the morons to reinslist”

So lets see, still we have the statement that only morons make a carrier, did you catch it that time?

Don’t patronize me.

*TC invites everyone to pull up a chair beside him, grab a bag of popcorn, and watch this colourful thread slowly, but exciting-ly progress.*

*TC would like to remind everyone though of a little side note; the popcorn bags cost 10 american each.*

*narf brings a 10-liter bag of his own popcorn and a lawnchair and sits in the spectater seats*

unfortuneatly, the military tends to be a vicious cycle of stupididy, much like the vicious circle of poverty, but slightly different. higher ranks are often full of dipsticks...

Well if you look at what he said to begin this, rather than just the fleshed out logic, it would support the statement that not all military officers are morons. As long as you don't take the second post alone and out of context, Puke was not saying that 100% of military officers are morons. Now, he could have worded the second post more consistently, but he didn't.

I was not intentionally patronizing you (Shang). I fail to see how you got a patronizing tone out of my post.

For a while this thread was going really well (giant radioactive roaches- perfect conversational material for a Rubber-Godzilla-fetishist like me) but now ppl are getting angry again and everyone else is settling back with popcorn. This thread is obviously destined to devolve into some kind of cagematch, therefore...

*dogscoff dons his "Dogscoff the Destroyer" mask and cape and leaps into the ring, smashes a chair over Shang's back, elbows Fyron in the face, bodyslams Puke and then turns to flex and chant to the crowd.

Puke what you posted was in no way funny. You have to understand that it hurts people who have loved one serving in the military and is rather rude considering what is going on in the world today. Additionally all of my friends and family who have served in the armed forces have never said anything negative about their experience, even the guy who was court marshaled, and most of them are very intelligent, hard working, family people with good jobs and stable income.

I hope that in the future you will considered the harm an animosity that such a derogatory post would generate and refrain from posting.

Fyron that is just cold man. Cold. I rated him 5 some time ago and stand by it.

I understand the error of my ways now. Please forgive me. I was horribly wrong and will forever live with this regret.
