what is it with marines

[grove rat]

about half the ones i have meet/talked to are pretty cool, but the other half are the ''i'm a badass cause i was a marine'' typical jarhead

Marines are people, they have different personalities, charactor etc.. lumping them all together is just dumb..

honestly though, when i served, i thought a lot of the Marines i ran across were dumb.

Yeah, Slider's a real asshole.

[46Tbird]

everyone that is hired and comes onto my crew is either a know it all, dumb as a stump, wants to automatically be the subject matter expert, or has this massive chip on their shoulder, etc. shit.........

When did you meet Levi?

[exlude]

You wouldn't say that to their face.

Oh of course not! I'm skeered.

Um.....

just being honest, i have a first hand experience

i guess its like how a black guy can say nagger, but whites cant lol

the supply Marines are usually the dumbest fwiw..

Marines have lots of different jobs. I liked the ones I've met just they all have this type of attitude. Not a bad one, just I don't know? A marine attitude?

Sounds like you covered 4 very different types of people. I would venture to guess you havnt had but maybe about 4 Marines on your "crew" to begin with. Do you have a line of Marines outside your door?

What a stupid post

I've met more than 4 and pretty cool people. I once read a book about them and they have a lot of cool traditions and it was a interesting read.

No way in fuck! Have you ever met a gun bunny? Those motherfuckers make 0311's look like fucking Einstein.

That's a family trait, the Marine Corps just let me channel it in entertaining ways for a while.

Are 0311s like tankers in the Army?

0311 = 11 Bravo I'm pretty sure...riflemen

Ah...infantry in the Army are geniuses (generally not dumb) compared to the tankers I met.

Tankers are retarded? you'd figure they'd want some one half way decent to pilot around a heavy piece of equipment that shoots large projectiles.

I would've thought so too. I don't know what it is, maybe the Abrams is too automated.

The only exception is one guy on here. He can actually operate an SLR, so clearly he's WAY above any tanker I met.

The few conversations I've had with them, were more or less like talking with an ape.

Now don't get me wrong, the seem to be able to handle a tank well, I'm just not sure if it's the heat, loud noises or what. They just ain't right.
