There's nothing but civilian research stations at either pole. Any story you hear otherwise is just stories from people who believe FEMA built underground shelters.

The Ether Bunny poo poo was going around when I was in Basic Training. I asked my Father, who was in the military since Christ was a private, and he said the same loving story was going around when he was a young enlisted man.

Buffer cord story? Yup. Dude from Charlie 3/10, Fort Leanordwood did it, didn't you know? The DI's told us all about it, about how committing suicide is stupid.

You aren't supposed to shoot people with a .50, but you can shoot their equipment, like their LBE!

The parade ground at Fort Riley is haunted by Cav officers making enlisted march in formation. (I can believe that, loving Cav officers would be the worst even after they're loving dead)

Red Stone Arsenal has a massive underground complex at it.

The lower levels of NORAD are caves, and there's mutants in there. Seriously! Dude I know knew a guy who's room-mate was assigned to guard down there, and he totally got eaten, man.

The out areas of White Sands and the Nevada Test Ranges are full of radioactive mutants. They lose about a half dozen of you moron cocksuckers out there every loving year, so don't go chasing poo poo, and don't shoot each other with that live ammo, you loving retards.

Graf is loving haunted. There's a loving Sherman that races around the back roads. Your CO was totally sober when he crashed into that ditch, the tank ran him off the road. It has a rebel flag on the back.

WIldflicken was an old Nazi SS training ground. Off to the side, near the Top of the Rock NCO Club, if you go down the road and through the locked gate, there's a weird area where the old SS poo poo was, including an intact whipping post. At night fog comes up about a foot to two feet. People get lost there all the time and either don't come back, or come back way later claiming to have only been gone for a little while.

The old Madigan Army Hospital was shut down because it was haunted, so they built a new one.

Fort Hood had the "Dirty Dozen", a bunch of gay officers who blackmailed young enlisted to being their sex-slaves for weekend parties.

The road between Fort Lewis and McChord AFB is haunted by a convoy that runs people off the road on Friday and Saturday nights.

There's a black dog on Fort Hood's Turkey Run Road, that if you see him, you'll die within the week in an automobile crash.

Lighting 3 cigarettes without changing position is bad luck. (This one has a basis in reality. That's all the time a sniper needs to kill the third guy or the guy holding the lighter)

CID sells all the contraband they confiscate on the black market. (Probably true)

If you put the US side up on green blanket on your bed/cot, you'll be dead by morning.

Military Intelligence has vampires in it. (Not true, it's werewolves)

CID is full of child molesters. (Again, probably true)

Military shippers who move your stuff from overseas steal your poo poo/hide drugs in your poo poo. (Again, probably true)

Medics sell black soldier's blood to white supremacist groups to baptize white babies in. (No poo poo heard this from Nation of Islam guys)

There's a medic at the TMC who decides who she's going to date by whether or not their medical records show they've had an STD checkup and if they were positive.

The guys who were here last smuggled a midget into the barracks in a rucksack and then pulled a train on her before making her ride a tricycle around the barracks with "CUM SLUT" on her back in Sharpie.

Blackhawks are perfectly safe to land in. Your roommate totally knows this guy who went to Basic Training with a guy who was on one that didn't crash. (Bullshit, never happened)

Patton's ghost haunts the corner out by the air field on Fort Hood.

Goddamn soldiers are a superstitious bunch.

How else do you know what's missing? All the thefts were 80s/90s, my moves in adulthood were just full of items getting broken.

80's/90
s was godamn terrible.

When the drawdown of Europe happened, the movers stole EVERYTHING because most of them weren't even real moving/shipping companies.

I was something like 15K pounds overweight, got back 3 cardboard boxes.

Monkey shipped a SHITLOAD and didn't get anything back.

Hey, shall I go all :tinfoil: in here? I mean, get really into poo poo like CoG sites, experimentation, and War Fighter poo poo?

Or should I just shut the gently caress up?

There's a black market for organs. If you think that there aren't state actors involved in their sale you're dumb

Like anything that a hosed up person could want exists somewhere to buy. If you don't think that there's state actors involved I think you're naive

Hell, look at shamans in Africa. Selling albino people's limbs to eat. Or the tea-boys of the middle east. Or any other hosed practice. My logic is: the more money you have, the shittier hosed up stuff you do.

I'd really loving like to know what goes on in yuca mountain. Or where the gently caress all the depleted, glassified uranium goes to.

I also read in the New York times that former cia torturers joined the mormon church. http://www.nytimes.com/2014/12/16/us/politics/cia-on-path-to-torture-chose-haste-over-analysis-.html?_r=0

I'd be loving CRAZY if they used their working knowledge of neuroscience, propaganda campaigns, and passive manipulation to influence political outcomes

I also guess there's this thing in intelligence where you "squeeze" someone by systemically pressuring them into their most destructive behaviors. It'd be super hosed up if retired asshats decided to do that for political reasons.

I also guess that you can estimate interest by pupils dilation. It'd be super hosed up if the NSA used the front facing cameras on all of our phones and laptops to aggregate data such that they could predict and influence market trends, again for probably political purposes.

Quickly, somebody ask me about lithium batteries and the motorola iridium project

What y'all fucks know about star wars. Let's compare the mormon church to the ending of dr strangelove

There's a tunnel system that links all the buildings at the Air Force Academy. It was built for maintenance, but it also was intended to serve as a shelter for the Cadet Wing in the event of an atomic attack. It had marshaling areas and store rooms and even a morgue. That part is true. There were always rumors of more, though: hidden command posts, archives with copies of important federal documents, connections to other bases in the area. There was also a locked gate leading to more tunnels past the steam plant. No one knew where it went.

Given the area, I absolutely wouldn't be surprised if there are tunnels connecting the Academy to other places. It would make sense to have at least some kind of command post, too.

I remember like 2 weeks before graduation being on firewatch and some dude vanished into the bathroom for like 15 minutes. Just as I'm about to check on him he comes walking out and looks at me and goes "Oh thank loving christ it still works" and he shuffled off back to his rack.

Took me a minute to understand what the gently caress he was going on about
