Here's the deal:

Lots of people in the Army smoke. Lots of people in the Army are inconsiderate. Put these two together and what do you get? Inconsiderate smokers.

I HATEinconsiderate smokers. I want all inconsiderate smokers to die of lung cancer as soon as possible. If you are an inconsiderate smoker and you are reading this; die of lung cancer right now.

agent orange, gulf war syndrome, Depleted uranium, who knows why MRE's last for ten years?, Lithium grease on everything, Tritium inside everything, in a country whose air is filled with burned oil waste and rockets. JP8/9 fumes, Cordite (not lead free primers), Anthrax vaccines like they were vitamins.... It's not a culture geared toward consideration of environmental health impacts.

OK OK dying of cancer now!

I love cigarette taxes... hahahahaha! Fuck smokers- I love cigarette taxes! They only pad The Man's pockets? So what? What doesn't? Punch me in the face! Oh right; you can't keep up with me because your coughing like your grandma.

Haha. Ha.

I can't be the only floatie keeping you from drowning.

I was seventeen and I was completely retarded. I was in a hard home situation that I needed to get away from. So I chose a cost-effective, swift escape. The Army. My recruiter told me lots of frilly things about college money and healthcare. Nearly all of it fell on deaf ears. All of it except, "You can be out of here as soon as...

So my piece got posted. Yay times for that. There were some haters but I was expecting it. Not so much from a former service member, but douches are everywhere. So I really shouldn't be surprised one tried to shit upon me.

Shout out to Gerry_Dfor the hookup.

I hope to write my next piece using the comments from my last. Thanks to everyone...

I loved your article. I've never been able to understand the people who don't grok the difference between the people out their on the ground and the decisions of the folks up in the Capitol.

Keep safe, yeah?

I think the worst thing about being in Iraq is not having anyone to talk to. My tolerance for ignorance is so low that exchanging more than 6.5 words with anyone in the Army makes me want to punch infants. I don't mean expressing the stress of it all (which is no small thing), but simple intelligent conversation. I sit in my office I look...

I read your post and and also had fond memories of watching Battlestar Galactica in bed, but then I realized that I watched the 1978 version and you mean the modern version without Lorne Greene and Dirk Benedict. Does the new version have a "rag-tag fugitive fleet" and shiny metal Cylons?

I'm sorry that Iraq sucks. Hopefully all of you won't have to be there much longer. Hopefully.

Compliments will get you everywhere!

But the offer was genuine... I had a Poli-Sci and a Philosophy major with me... the arguments were insane, and a saving grace.
I've been fortunate lately, so I've been spreading the fortune. Hence the offer... I lived on "The Economist" for all my big brain articles while I was in the sandbox... I'd be glad to pass a small joy in your direction.

Let me know if your interested.

Live from the Orient... I'm out.

I'm a nice lady! I think someone should give me a cookie!

Peanut butter please.

I have that peanut butter with peanut pieces in... *yummy*

Would I need to add the peanut butter for you later or should I already bake cookies with peanut butter in the dough? Sounds like an American recipe so I am a little at loss there...
