Godholio posted:I'll just chime in that buying an O-3mobile is way more rewarding than O-1mobile. When I was getting close to commissioning in ROTC, one of the LTs who worked at the unit pulled me into his office and said "Okay, I know you're going to buy an ensignmobile because they all do, what are you planning on?" I had just bought a car so I told him, "I just got a 3 year old Buick, why?" He paused and told me I could go.

There was always some garbage car with a lime Lamborghini body kit (either that or the thing had been in an awful wreck and got repaired badly) by the IMF/NRMD building. Knew a few guys who got 370Zs or vettes, no Lotus'a that I ever met though.

If it's a greeting you gotta sustain the vowels on the "mate" part Saying just "Shipmayyyyyyte..." translates to 'sarcasticly acknowledging your presence while staring through your glazed eyes and marveling at your lack of grey matter, you're hosed up and you probably don't know it and are too dumb to understand'

so i see a navy recruiter and i'm like "HEY SHIPMATE" in like hte least sarcastic literal pronunciation of the word for maximum awkwardness but maybe with a wink or unnoticeable eyebrow furrow/wink because i'm dry as gently caress

Depends, 'hey shipmate' is more of a general jolly go gently caress yourself. Just 'shipmate', preferably with a nice long drawl at the end, doubly so if you can scan their uniform and back to their face right before you say it, is just the most passive aggressive way of calling someone a shitbag.

So dumb question, but for OCS is it boxers or briefs? The packing list in the survival guide says briefs but recent graduates have been saying they dont care there. Also anything people reccomend bringing? So far I have lots of socks and underwear, mess laundry bag, wristwatch, cash and clear nail polish.

LingcodKilla posted:Clear nail polish? Sealing up frayed ends on clothing. I used superglue, either one is pretty useful. As I recall you need a few pairs of briefs to have in your locker for inspection, but as far as what you're wearing on your body it probably doesn't matter (one exception being the female candidate who thought it would be a good idea to wear a red thong underneath her dress white pants). You really don't need to bring much yourself; you'll get issued (sold) a sack full of stuff whether you need it or not. Anything extra is just more stuff to hide somewhere prior to inspections. Some styptic pencils or swabs is a good idea, since everyone ends up cutting themselves shaving at least a couple of times.
