I always thought marines were supposed to be badass. I'm not saying they aren't, but I know someone who used to be an active marine. He's very small with no muscle and he has the attitude of a millennial. He doesn't like to work and he is lazy. Are the marines getting lazy or is this guy an outlier?

There's something called the 10% Rule. In any organization, no matter how elite, 10% will be bottom feeders who slipped through the cracks somehow. Whether that be the Marine Corps, the student body of Harvard Law School, or whatever.

I knew a few Marines and they were really small guys, like 140 lbs. One got on roids and went insane and ripped his girlfriend's dog's head off and shot her in the face. She survived.

One Marine I know today is a badass.

Outlier. Not all Marines are badasses, but the majority of them believe they are. Boot camp and training instill a great deal of confidence and pride in them. Overall, still a great fighting force.

Outlier. I guess he feels he deserves to be a little lazy right now.

Be careful not to anger him. You won't like it when he's angry.

Marines have become pussies with the rise of the Millenials. I think that is the change we are seeing.

You need to learn about odds and percentages.

The ones I know are either complete frick ups or bad asses. None are pussies though.
