i don't care if this is another idr type troll, i just want this fragile facade of some dumb pfc trying to scam even dumber iet soldiers to come to an explosive end involving the most try hard drill sergeants and a company commander with too much time on his hands.

it's the only kind of thing that reinvigorates my pitch black soul.

Skoal mint and Grizzly wintergreen longcut are both the best sales, Skoal mint is easy to disguise as toothpaste, aka it smells like minty toothpaste. Also hiding poo poo is so goddamn easy, Weapons cleaning kits never get checked, Inside of buttstock of rifle never gets checked, Inside the laundry room dryer under the actual cylinder tied to a little 550 coord.

The best hiding place was inside the shower drain, we put a phone in a waterproof bag, then inside two socks , then 10 ft down the drain in a shower we didn't use. Sadly it was a go-phone but still the person who smuggled it let us use it for free if we all chipped in to buy another 1,000 minutes and gave him more poo poo on duty squad etc.

Anansi (/əˈnɑːnsi/ ə-nahn-see) the trickster is a West African god. He often takes the shape of a spider and is considered to be the god of all knowledge of stories. He is also one of the most important characters of West African and Caribbean folklore.

He is also known as Ananse, Kwaku Ananse, and Anancy; and in the southern United States he has evolved into Aunt Nancy. He is a spider, but often acts and appears as a man.

So my new commander is saying how some of her CLC3 buddies are getting notice that they are being force shaped out pretty drat fast. I heard in one instance, a down range 03 is getting pulled out and done in thirty days or less.

Then she goes into how USAR wants to recruit these people, and I chuckle. It would be a nice thought and we could use them but, yeah right. We are short one 01-2 and three W01-3s in my company, and those WO slots will never get filled. My battalion is probably short a bunch of positions that are critical because they are brand new.... We could use them there. If they could recruit these guys.

Wait idea, make them all Warrants if they want to get back in, or Sgts. We can always use some of either. But Cpts? Nope, get out. Anybody who does bad enough on their OER for big Army to cut them... Meh.

You know, Anansi could well be the embodiment of every motherfucker who's ever done anything wrong in the military.

"gently caress yeah I can smoke weed in the barracks, they won't catch me!"

"gently caress yeah I can drink and drive. I'm a sergeant first class, what are they gonna do?"

"gently caress yeah I can run this prostitution ring! I'm the brigade SHARP leader, nobody would even suspect."

This story is a fine military tradition and will repeat itself throughout eternity. I salute you, Little Spider. Go forth and build you fragile web of lies, treachery, and deceit. Believe in your mission, and that nobody will catch you. In spite of your skull splitting stupidity.

Do they have billboards that are part of their uniform, explaining what they did? Because if they don't then it's not worth it.

There's a few O3s that got taken out of Afghanistan after being there for less than two weeks and told they have 30 days or less. The only one I know personally got a DUI about a year or so ago. He was kept in because WEST POINT!

1/3 of my BOLC class was West Pointers. There's basically two types: those who take it for what it was and rejoin society as productive human beings, and those who think it automatically makes them better than everyone else.

my favorite officer i ever worked with was a west pointer. he was on their football team (lol i know). he made fun of west point and the army constantly, got out the very moment he could, and got a job literally selling soda cans just so he could be as far away from the military as he could.

Except for the selling soda cans part I had an LT just like that. Said he realized half way through how retarded of an idea going to a service academy is.

I worked with a West Pointer IN O3 just like that. Dude was chill as gently caress, hilarious, and was getting out of the Army after his 5 years. He was the BN historian, and he made this book roasting like all of the HHC officers and NCOs, so they banished him down to Ghazni because apparently Ghazni is Siberia. Pesticide20 probably knows who I'm talking about.

My current commander is a West Pointer and he's the most chill CO by a mile out of the four I've worked for. It's also his second command and our company is also an HHC so that might have something to do with it. It's pretty hilarious that he basically takes as long as he feels like eating breakfast and walking his dog or whatever bullshit every single morning and often doesn't get in to work until 1030 which is promptly followed by leaving for lunch just before 1130. Meanwhile Ops and 1SG are all freaking out about the alarming amount of poo poo piling up in his inbox, which incidentally doesn't matter to me as I have control of the almighty signature stamp.

And w/r/t Anansi, one of my best buds (a friendship forged out of being the only two officers in our S3 for about 9 months)is a Basic Training Commander so I guess I could email him all the poo poo that may, or most likely not, be happening but frankly it's not even worth that much effort.

WHERE MY HOSE DRINKERS AT

Our battalion CO was a West Pointer who went to medical school after and became a heart surgeon, so he came back in to the Army as a O-6.

Nice enough guy, honestly. He knew me as "Mets Guy" since the one time we were in civilian clothes around him I wore a Mets cap and he became my best friend in the world.

I'm pretty sure I know who you're talking about, unfortunately there's a few officers there who fit that description.

awols in boot camp or MOS training schools are the best.
awols really weed out the utterly retarded people from the baseline retarded-enough-to-have-enlisted.

the dude who tried going awol at paris island during my bootcamp cycle also went awol w/2 of his friends in SOI.
when they were caught crossing the border into mexico and brought back to camp geiger, they blamed not being able to switch their contracts to "reservist" as one of the main reasons why they ran.

On the brightside most are literally retarded and walk down the highway because no one will expect that and catch you within 30 minutes of you going awol. Good try kid, good try.

You know it's kinda funny. Let's make the assumption, for just a moment, that Anansi is "for realsies" doing the things he claims to be doing. And then let's take a look at what gets people caught when they're engaging in criminal activity. It's generally one of three things. First off, they get stupid, don't cover their tracks all that well, that sort of thing. This is where most first time offenders go wrong, but I digress. Second thing, they get cocky, feel a need to brag about what they do and how they stick it to the man. Third, they get greedy. They don't know when to stop, even when it's obvious that they're about to be caught.

I really think that he's shooting for the trifecta.

The story goes that he showed up here, asked dumb poo poo about enlisting, didn't take our advice and went active duty 11B. He comes back after supposedly completing OSUT, has orders to The Old Guard which are then cancelled and gets reassigned as permanent party to literally his BCT unit as some sort of helper bitch.

Now in his fairytale fantasy land he's some sort of retard candy/dip kingpin selling to IET, working his way to a court martial or something.
