I built an M4gery like the ones we carried in Iraq because I had an AR because I decided to go in for the group buy with the engraved lowers the battalion did and figured that was worth doing with it. It's nothing like the M4 I carried in Iraq, though, because I didn't carry an M4 in Iraq.

Hey, is this the thread where we bitch about doing taxes? 'Cause all I'm waiting on is the fuckin' tax form from goddamned TSP. Oh, and I'm still waiting on that bullshit "this person has had healthcare as mandated by the ACA" form from EITHER Tricare or the VA.

Who am I?), I'm told that the application I'm trying to access is temporarily unavailable or that my information cannot be retrieved at this time. Well done, VA. Well done.

orange juche posted:DC Area goons, I am looking to move up there sometime next month, I would be bringing myself and me only. Where's a not-poo poo place to live for someone who will be working in Annapolis Junction, MD? I can afford ~1600 a month rent comfortably without changing my spending habits (I am bad with money sometimes), but could afford more with belt-tightening. I lived in Linthicum, which I think is about 15-20 minutes from Annapolis Junction. There's also some nice yuppie areas around Odenton in that price range that are about the same distance. http://www.grovesatpineyorchard.com/ - I used to live here. Had a two bedroom for somewhere around $1550.

Does bitching about USAA go into Dad Chat? I feel like it qualifies. So after my wife died, I kept making payments on her credit card. It was set up for auto-pay anyway, so I just didn't touch it and didn't think anything of it until a couple months ago when they sent her a replacement card because her old one was going to expire. Which means it was still active, despite USAA knowing she was dead. So I called USAA, got transferred to the department that deals with deceased members (being on hold for an hour before I got through), only to find out that her card was supposed to have been canceled when I reported her death to USAA, but apparently it fell through the cracks. They told me that the account would be closed and more than likely the interest would be canceled. Because my wife didn't have very good credit when she opened the account, it was backed by a certificate of deposit. So CD - Balance = Refund to me. I asked if the payments I'd made since she passed would be included in the refund and I was told that they would be. So here I am now, brain deciding it wants to review everything because gently caress sleep, and I realize that the check they sent me could not possibly have been the right amount. The amount I got was only $74 more than the payments I'd made and I know for drat sure that CD - Balance > $74 In the morning I'm calling USAA and asking them they walk me through how they arrived at the amount they sent me and why they feel as though they're entitled to 15 months of payments on an account that was supposed to have been closed before those payments had been made. Goddamnit, every time I think I'm done something else pops up.

Last year I got bombarded with phone calls, texts, and emails from auto moving companies in Miami, Florida. Apparently someone used my name, email, and phone number to request a quote to move a Bentley Continental from my old address to Miami. I explained this to one of the callers and he said "oh, man, I'm sorry - when someone puts in one of those quote requests, it goes to EVERY MOVING COMPANY in the area. I think there's over 100 of us." So keep this in mind if you need to prank someone, I guess.

Vasudus posted:I use my private insurance but I'm thinking of switching to Tricare Prime because it's apparently really good??? I don't know, I'm incredibly suspicious of anybody that says a military benefit is good. It's cheaper than my current corporate poo poo. My only gripe about Tricare Prime is that I live too close to a military treatment facility to be able to use it to see a civilian doctor. I gotta drive 45 minutes to a basic clinic to see a doctor. If I want a referral to a specialist, I gotta drive over an hour to Walter Reed.

LITERALLY SHAKING posted:The VA is loving retarded, but the reason we hear about VA problems is because they're publicly owned and must report poo poo. Lots of hospitals are just as bad or even worse but because they can be owned privately and non-profit, they're not beholden to anyone to report deaths over dipshittery and numbers never see the light of day. This is true. When the hospital my wife died in billed her for the tests the pathologists ran on her organs to make sure they were okay to transplant, I got it settled with a single phone call. Presumably because the hospital administrator realized that me going to the press with "the hospital is billing my wife for an organ donation" would have been a shitstorm he didn't want. Whenever the VA fucks up, it takes a goddamned act of Congress to set right.

Duzzy Funlop posted:Goddamn, Blade Runner is really well done. And impressive special effects, especially since I'm watching it in tyyol 2017 and am impressed. In the theatrical version's voiceover, Deckard explains that the people mostly speak a pidgin made up of pretty much everything. quote:That gibberish he talked was Cityspeak, gutter talk, a mishmash of Japanese, Spanish, German, what have you. I didn’t really need a translator. I knew the lingo, every good cop did. But I wasn’t going to make it easier for him. The movie is better without the voiceover, of course, but you do get more exposition and backstory with it.

I was doing a night land nav course and I was given points that were wrong. Like "these points are barely even on this map" wrong. Went to the OCs with my findings and was told to go into the woods, take a nap, then come back and say I found all my points. So I did. When I got back, the OCs asked "hey, you're the dude who talked to us earlier, right? Good job, you found all your points."

Dude came by the house soliciting for "care packages for the troops." I told him I wasn't interested. Fukken lol if you think I'm gonna buy that scam, rear end in a top hat. The only care packages deployed troops get that aren't from friends and family come from church groups who fill boxes with poo poo they couldn't give the homeless. What the gently caress am I going to do with an audiobook on loving cassette tape? One that clearly was originally purchased in 1993, no less, and had been sitting in the "free!" section of a used bookstore since 1994.

I've been burning through TNG on Netflix lately. I'm taking a break because I got to Crusher's Scottish Sex Candle Sex Ghost episode. But one thing I notice is how consistently useless Troi is. It's actually pretty goddamned terrible. In the first episode of season three, the Enterprise is threatened by nanites. Troi is there when they use the word a bajillion times. She's in the room when they make contact with them. In the first episode of season four, someone mentions nanites and her response is confusion. "GOLLY GEE WHAT'S THAT?" One episode she magically loses her empathic abilities and decides that without them she can't be a space therapist anymore (despite another episode firmly establishing the fact that she went to space therapy college and has a goddamned advanced degree in this poo poo). Another episode she's the ranking officer on the bridge during a crisis and displays negative knowledge about starship operations. "Why would losing anti-matter containment be bad?" 100% of the times she drove the Enterprise, she crashed it into something. She crashed two different Enterprises. Goddamn, did Marina Sirtis have a bad breakup with a writer or something?
