How did these kids get TS and how did they even make it to their 18th birthday? I have been convinced there is a secret furry population here and well this not only proves it but it seems it is a goon or channer. I hope this visitor is signing in to my building Now this is what I think of when I hear about cruising for cougars!!

The author of that D&D flyer is an interesting guy. He went UA for a week because his "spirit adviser" told him to get out of the military. He refuses to believe dragons are loving fictional creatures. The strangest thing, he slipped through the cracks and was never put in a duty section, so he picked one and went every single week and complained every time when his name wasn't called.

Ya we have a bunch of wiccans including "the white witch" who changed his own name and wears vampire fangs. He has gotten in trouble for wearing his pagan necklace in uniform. Also he says "per se" a lot.

I love Indiana Jones he is always ready for adventure. Ya those sailors that popped hot? One of them still hangs out on base and is engaged to a female sailor that pissed clean by a miracle, despite knowing she hosed one of his buddies while he was on restriction. What is the story on that wiccan Marine guy? I heard he is in some sort of wizard training and must "experience wartime" to continue on to the next level of training. Is he training with this guy?

There is a statue here overlooking the ocean of an eagle. It has been said for decades that if anyone leaves the DLI a virgin then that statue will take flight. Before I joined I used to hear stories about barracks whores and loose women in A school but drat... In my class everyone but the married people and myself has slept with someone else in our class. It is a literal loving train wreck. There is a girl who was sleeping with two of the guys in the class alternating nights, while she was dating one of their best friends. The best friend is now engaged to the other girl in that class. That particular female cheated on her prior fiance with the same guy that her current fiance's ex-girlfriend cheated on him with. Confused yet?

Lets not turn this thread into an enlisted/officer debate please. This is a sperg story station. I have seen officers get preferential treatment as much as I have seen junior enlisted here. I have also seen people get loving annihilated for petty poo poo. I don't know why you see guys lose their language over homework counselings or looking at facebook while some people get frat charges dropped or get restriction for drunk on duty but keep their language.

In regards to Os getting preferential treatment at the DLI what it really boils down to is the MLI (military language instructor). The MLI is the liaison between the teachers and your unit. He also handles the roll packages and refers you to your unit for an academic review board. In most cases the MLI is an NCO usually E5 or E6. It seems in certain cases the MLI doesn't feel as comfortable putting a roll or drop package in for an officer as opposed to some kid E2 who is fresh out of boot. I know in my class our MLI calls us children, does the whole "I am training you, I am above you, you will listen to me and respect my rank" bit. He out ranks us and despite there being an E6 in our class he still has positional authority and flexes it. I am cool with it this is the military after all. However our sister class has an Army Captain in it and their class is run very different. They do self study and are spared from his speeches and threats. Now is it because the Captain goes to bat for them or is it because the Marines in my class act like they are 15?hammeredspace posted:You can weasel out an associate's degree in the language you studied, if that's your thing.

Changed my mind about sharing that one, in case it was true. The guy who posted the flier for D&D has a habit of talking about his games as if they were real and without prefacing what he is talking about. He will walk up to you and just launch right into it. I remember one time he came up to me and said, "So there are these bugs and my guys have to fight them and they kidnap villagers and they have little helpers that bring them water. I am a visual person and do you know what locust wings sound like? Thats all I can hear in my head right now" I almost had a hernia from holding in my laughter.

This place just keeps on giving. I just went to the smoke pit outside my building and overheard a guy on the phone talk about how he was walking around town and noticed in a house window an old guy watching porn. Now a normal person would probably laugh and keep walking, or be a little sick and keep walking. Hell a normal person wouldn't be looking in other people's windows. This guy however hid in the guys bushes and watched the old man watch porn for 15-20 minutes.

It was Arabic and it was the five. I still haven't gotten the results, we used to be able to check them ourselves but some airman blew it by checking his DLPT score from the computer he just used to take it. Ya they stopped doing the second chance Spanish thing a long time ago. There was some guy here that went through Arabic, failed (On purpose he said) then took Farsi and then got out due to PTSD. He had never been anywhere but DLI. Last I heard he got hired by some company in South America making a lot of money. He was the biggest douche ever and used to get drunk and act like a tough guy until some cabbie threatened to kill him for not paying a fare.

The OPI is graded by people and is based on their professional opinion. Professional as it may be it is still an opinion and is influence by a lot. If anything below passing or above a 2 is given then a third tester has to come in and review the tape. Also at least with Arabic there are cultural influences as well. So pretty much everyone gets a 1+ or if they blow it out of the water they might get a 2. I am happy with my 1+ and happy I never have to take an OPI again.

Whenever I knew I bombed a speaking test I would beg the teacher for speaking practice before class or during lunch and work with them for a few weeks and they would turn my grade in as a B. Arabic teachers would always just make a decision on what kind of student you are and then give you that grade for everything. I could turn in a paper that was complete crap and one that I spent forever on and they would always just get a B.
