Is this supposed to sound badass?

I have always been interested in military history and learning about the military, but why do some assholes feel the need to behave this way? What if a 15 year old girl comes up and says "Thank you for being a soldier." Gonna "boot stomp her in the jaw?" I hope this is not a common mindset.

I don't know why I still have Facebook, everything there is so infuriating...but I can't look away.

I'll catch hell for it, but Marines are changed in many ways for the worse. To them they are all better, but eveyone I have known to go Marine has come back like a robot, while Army and Air Force people return to civilian life and everything is normal. A marine has to tell you he is a marine every day.

Some of the tools I went to high school with joined the Marines and became even bigger tools. Those who went to college first and became officers are cool but it seems like every enlisted guy has a huge chip on his shoulder and is pissed off at the world. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate what they do but I'm tired of hearing about how every civilian owes them something even though all they do is change HUMVEE tires at a random base somewhere in the states.

I was in the US Army, I know you asked for Marines,. There is a lot of stuff I let slide. Why? Because most don't know and they only have good intentions.

Don't see what the big deal is. You'll see ppl be bigger retards over a college football team, that never attended the college.

Can't hold pride against something you've never been through or earned.

all of the former Marines i know (my late grandfather, my uncle, and one of my best friends from back in the day) all were still really good people after their time in the Marines... my good friend is still in active duty as a sergeant, but he's state side as a recruiter... one of the most humble, well spoken dudes i've ever met... huge improvement from where he came from as a kid...

to their credit, they go through a little bit more than Army or Navy guys, and you do see some toolbags that are former Marines, but i'm just saying not all of them are terrible after their time in the Marines...

The least people could do is learn a few basic facts since the marines put their lives on the line every single day for our freedom

Aren't the Marines part of the Navy? Technically, someone could call him sailor and be correct

I've known plenty of assholes in the military, and it wasn't specific to branch of service. If you're an a-hole, that doesn't change depending on which uniform you wear. Some stereotypes are true, and some are just fun to throw around and give other services shite about.
