I grew up with a lot of guys that really didn’t have anything going on so a bunch joined the military. Years later, the guys that joined the Marines are mostly OK, but the guys that served in the Navy are mostly out of shape obnoxious know-it-alls who love Trump and think that because you didn’t serve in the military you don’t know shit about anything.

And yet, when you ask them about their time in the Navy, all you get is multiple stories about either some homo erotic shit being done on the ship while they’re in the middle of the sea, or all of the times they got gonorrhea from their time in ports like Subic Bay and Thailand.

I see you've met my brother that joined the navy... I don't think he owns a piece of civilian clothing thats not a blue lives matters piece... Also he's always in crippling debt but also has 3 new guns everytime he would come around... Also he's engaged to his buddies daughter he used to babysit.
