Hey fellas, how about you don't dogpile on the guy who is clearly going through some poo poo right now? He hosed up, sure, but I bet that the last thing he needs is a lecture from a bunch of alcoholic welfare queens (present company included). I think it's been mentioned here before, but the google hangouts is actually a good place to chill and talk about whatever is bothering you. I used to think I was above all that kind of stuff, but after some events this last semester, the hangouts group was able to talk me down from the metaphorical ledge and help me get my head in the right place. It's pretty much a judgement-free zone for cool dudes, and they'll only talk poo poo if you have a Nintendo Wii or drive a Miata (because who does that? seriously). http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3733032

However, choosing not to follow advice and pointing him in the direction multiple times of the resource thread and other materials which he ignores is not something we can control. I get melting down on the forums, I get needing someone to talk to. He needs to stop posting in this case, and go talk to someone. All he's doing is dragging poo poo to us and we get lord of the flies with it. He knows he has resources, he's just not using it. You can lead a horse to vagina but you can't make him play a Wii.

Lard Goat posted:I know what I should do, but after the way the army treated me for my drug problem, gently caress them. I literally had an army psychologist tell me to talk to my legs because I am so jittery. If you know what you should do then go do it. Go to a VA emergency room and check yourself in. Unless you're already known as a troublemaker for causing a scene while wearing TAPOUT shirts and kicking over wheelchairs, there's no reason you shouldn't take your rear end to the ER right now. You'll talk to some doctors and a psychiatrist and then you can go straight to inpatient rehab, schedule outpatient rehab, or just say gently caress it and bail. If you're not suicidal or homicidal they can't keep you and if you are then it's a good idea for them to hold on to you for a bit. I did that last month and now I have 40 days sober. It's not easy, but system works if you allow it to. I tried to drink my memories away for five years and it only made things worse. I don't know how long you've been out, but it's not going to get any better unless you get some help and the sooner you realize that the better off you'll be. Trust me on this one brosef.

Like are you serious, Army. Pull this poo poo again. I am about to go to my last drill as a PL thursday. I can't wait. Hopefully they try to prank the hell out of me.

Reserves, what? The vast majority of separated officers had something bad in their file, whether it was APFT/weight problems, bad performance OERs, or something like a DUI. I don't blame the Army for writing the whole group off rather than try to skim off the few they might want who would actually sign up for more Army BS after getting a gently caress off and a severance check.

If I had enough time I would have fought it. The majority of the company including the XO was on my side too since said NCO was a tremendous human being everyone hated and who had to be shifted around due to conflicts (incl. physical) with troops in his original platoon, oh well, getting hella grants and GI bill, gently caress the army x10000000000000000000 Justin Tyme fucked around with this message at 21:40 on Sep 25, 2015 |

The Army Times has published the results of the courts martial that took place in August. This one amused me. Fort Carson, Aug. 5: Name: Sgt. Maj. Virgil L. Ebrecht Conviction: By a military judge, pursuant to his plea, of one specification of abusive sexual contact of a child. Sentence: Reduced to the grade of E-4, confined for 30 months. As part of an offer to plead guilty, a pretrial agreement limited confinement to six months. How many police calls do you think he'll do before he finally leaves the army?
