Face the results? Dude you still haven't done crap. You are nothing. Just a guy who served and is now out in college. Like thousands before and thousands after. I am just an average joe. I thought you had some wonderful crap to say. It was a complete let down.
You're such an average joe that you're 10 times better than this average joe, who is just some run of the mill chump on a boxing forum. You're such a hypocritical moron. "You are an average clown. You are nothing, I am way better than you, I am an average joe" Do you really feel satisfied with your blown up analysis of absolutely nothing?
Dude he has accomplished what THOUSANDS of people have accomplished who didn't have crap to do at home and got suckered into signing up. Any shmuck that has passed high school calculus and is in decent physical shape can do what either of us did. I hate it when people act like joining "The Machine" makes them "special". It doesn't take a "special" man to jump into a multi-billion dollar weapon system to "fight" supposed "threats" all over the world from poor and/or weaker countries. Had the fool spent his time in the Peace Corps, mentored wayward youth, or volunteered at his local 4h club I would have respected him more. On a sub? Yeah man the rowing on that really thin long boat that they are in the air a bit looks amazing. Almost spiritual.
You've missed the point completely. This is me and you, not me vs the world. You called me out, I answered, you responded and I pointed out I was right. Quit looking for support with "this guy" You don't need other kids on a forum to talk for you.
Yes I am an average joe. I have done many things and the only difference between us is time, luck, and personal preference. I am sure you will do a great many things in due time. In the mean time, quit talking about how much you did in 5 years. Hundreds of people do what you did. Hundreds more will do it. LIG Luke.
Like I said before I respect what you have done. To be clear I have been in your exact same shoes. Just so you know I'm not a fraud your term "Capped" means someone who was advanced to the next higher paygrade without having to take the examination test by your command for outstanding service. You should be proud of that! I served on two different submarines in my time and got out as a chief select in 8 years and I'm proud of that! Just remember that keeping your head down and being humble is always better than showing your ass and being embarrassed because you never know who has done what!
The difference is, I was talking about you. Not hundreds of other people. You're creating a straw man argument to give yourself some sort of victory over the bragging forum guy who thinks he is so awesome. I never said I was amazing or the best thing ever, but I have done more than "average no life clown" and used you as an example, because you wanted to issue the challenge. So you saw what I wrote, then used yourself as the counter point. The statistics prove me right, not the idea that I just went and signed up for the military and did a bunch of push ups in boot camp.
Yeah, but you're not claiming i'm an average clown with no life who doesn't amount to ****. If I said something like that to you, to discredit what you were saying about boxing, you would probably take offense too.
No Luke. You called yourself out. I just ran with it to see what you had to say. I was surprised you were so arrogant for having accomplished so little of your own volition. Luke I don't need support from others. I already had my way with you.
Luke you are amazing. Why don't review your very first post to me. In response to someone else that I never once made a personal attack. What did that have to do with boxing? Then you say that YOU took offense? This type of behavior is par for the course for you though. You spin off on tangents completely unaware of how you got there. Then your entire argument is based upon some BS "attack on your person" that you imagined and/or instigated along the way. It is kind of sad.
Want all the quotes from you calling my quality of character into question? You're sitting here with absolutely nothing to say but "anyone can do what you did" Well, tell that to all the guys I outranked who made it through the 10 weeding out processes the submarine force has. There is a difference between pride and arrogance. Pride is defending your character, arrogance is bragging about it to anyone who will listen.
You're right about joining "The Machine" not making them special. What is "special" is the sacrifices you make not seeing your family and friends to do the job that's required. Not many people on this earth would be willing to do that. That's the reason it was time for me to go besides I was offered my dream job. I think I got some pictures around the house I put in my avatar of my local area rivers here for you.
You were talking about two kinds of cheaters genius. It was to put your stupid post in perspective. If I was a big mayweather fanatic like you, this conversation wouldn't be happening and you'd be like "these *******s are stupid as ****" to the next guy who disagreed with you. Straw man arguments. Way too ****ing many.
Quality of your character? I said you are a loser that posted over 4K times in less than two months. Is that slander or a fact? Pride doesn't need to be defended. It defends itself. You sir are arrogant.
Exactly man! Lots of guys have served. I respect them all. I served too. Many more capable guys will come after us. No need to toot our horns about how wonderful we are. There is honor in service, but hey it is just one life choice among many. Hell, IMHO, I think there is more honor in being a loving father, husband, and stand up guy.
