Mustang: Jun 18, 2006; “We don’t really know where this goes — and I’m not sure we really care.”

I always liked the guys fresh out of marine bootcamp with the most pogue MOS available acting like they were some kind of hardcore, steely eyed killers because they were now marines

though I'm sure the same thing happens in the army

that's why they had instructors run around and get the national guard/reserve guys high on hooah to sign a new contract for regular army at the end of initial training

Is that whole "oorah not hooah" really a thing because holy poo poo. That seems like a hilariously stupid and pointless distinction to make.

Joint environment has led me to saying yut because no one calls me out on it because senior Marines don't want to acknowledge it as official and it sounds just as stupid as hwuh.

I've never heard "yut" before. It sounds pretty dumb. Then again, so does "hooah," "oorah," and "I'm in the military"

Do Marines seriously call their combat dress "cammies"?

You should watch Ears Open Eyeballs Click for an inside look at how dumb marine boot is and the stupid poo poo they call things.

I'm not American, maybe that's the cultural divide. We call them combats or CADPAT up here in the great white north.

manchego: Feb 16, 2007; MEANWHILE,

A standout statement told to me when I was in was that if you make fun of the marines to a marine they are very likely to get their panties in a twist.

If you make fun of the army to a soldier, they'll jump in with their own story about how gay and stupid the army is.

a critical mass of goon consensus has been achieved and the full on circle jerk begins. just a sweaty mass of lubed up retards grasping each others dicks and jerking as hard as possible hooting 'marines bad!!!' to no one in particular.

not a concept peculiar to gip.

it doesnt matter one way or the other. moreso just observing the intense desire that goons have to circlejerk once a consensus is reached.

for example:
xboxone has bad ram
