Here's a thing: 40% discount on any one Trijicon sight or optic through the end of 2015.

e: Maybe it was poorly-worded, but it looks like you may be able to get the discount on:

quote:

a single magnified optic, a single reflex sight, and a single set of tritium night sights for handguns
So maybe all three.

On American Sniper. The thing I find most fascinating about this movie is how American all this really is. I haven't seen the movie yet, but friends have told me that it is a nuanced study of a soldier struggling with what the brutal work he did abroad. But the thing is basically a re-writing, a narrative fantasy that skirts a more painful truth. Chris Kyle, the real life sniper who this was based on, was pretty much a racist psychopath who didn't really do a lot of personal soul-searching. It seems, from everything that I've read that he was pretty cool with killing lots of brown people, believed wholeheartedly that the US War on Terror was an unequivocal good, and hated Arabs. But both the Academy and US viewers are eating this movie up...( apparently it's breaking all sorts of box office records). Why? Because we prefer the nuanced fantasy to the more painful reality that perhaps the war machine has the effect of producing soldiers who do awful things in our name and whose souls are re-shaped for the worse because of it. American Sniper is an indictment of our own embrace of militarism, and our lack of comfort with honestly examining the results of it.
Just thinking of militarism on this MLK Jr. Day. Have you seen the movie? What do you think?

gently caress. Start school real soon, a bit more than full time, and not gonna lie I'm pretty nervous/worried. I've been a terrible student all my life and did "ok" my first time around at college. It's nice not having to work full time while going to school full time though. Time to take this poo poo serious. (Actually prob just gonna re-enlist :sweatdrop:)

But really got every reason to succeed. Security, GI bill, etc. So here goes

Now that you're older you'll find it a lot easier as long as you keep up with classes and homework.

I did a semester of college before i shipped out to basic and then fit a couple more in before I deployed, and did rather lovely. A lot of it was working full time on top of taking full credits and basically being a shithead.

After my deployment, I went back to school a couple months later and found it insanely easy and felt like a complete idiot for loving around so much beforehand.

Honestly the worst part of college when you're older is dealing with the younger students.

edit: Make a schedule for dealing with studying/homework and stick to it. Since you're not working there's really no excuse for having enough time to get it all done.

Same as above, but as long as you treat it more like a job than an excuse to party, school will be easy. I hit the gym in the morning, did work/class all day, and was done with everything by like 7 each night at the latest. I just graduated with 3.8 in civil engineering when I practically failed out of school pre-military. Don't sweat it.

Also, lose the military habit of showing up 15-20 minutes before class starts, you'll be the only loser sitting in class, and you'll feel even worse when a freshman walks in and asks if you're the professor.

Fruit is proof that the gods exist and love us.

Just kidding!

Life is meaningless
Show up as early as you need to be to get a seat next to the professor/the slides on the projector, especially if you wear glasses. Because you're gonna forget one day and let me tell you if anything's frustrating it's not being able to loving see what's on the slides. Or what's being written in half inch lettering chickenscratch on the blackboard



do not skimp on seating, it does literally nothing for you to not be sitting right up front every day

WOKE UP IN THE DESERT AGAIN
Show up 15 minutes early, drop your stuff to save your seat farthest from, and with a clear view of, the classroom entrance/egress. Doesn't matter if it's the last day of the semester, someone will try to sit in YOUR chair.

Go to the campus store, pick up enough Rip It(s) to last the 1hr 50mins of class. Have a smoke. 5s and 25s for yoga butts.

Come back, sit down, make small talk for the 5 minutes left before class because you're old and weird and this is probably the only time you'll meet anyone.

Start at least once sentence every day with "When I was in the Infantry.."

Have fun and good luck.

Student vet checklist:

[ ] dip/spitter

[ ] old unit T-shirt or buy one from article 15

[ ] hat with CIB/CAB

[ ] camo backpack, patches

[ ] your boots or google "combat flip-flops" and buy them

[ ] enough GI bill and student vet handbooks that every time you open up, one spills out

In all seriousness the reason these guys are right about sitting up front is so you don't get distracted by 18 year olds in yoga pants. Jesus.
