The only thing dorkier than misappropriating military jargon is some internet Karen trying to police those who do.

Op does have a point, just really shitty delivery. There can't be a thread on here without every swinging dick acting like their brother is running hits on warlords out the back of a blue van in Mogadishu with the full backing of the people in the back room at Langley.

Everybody on earth knows about that top secret team that makes seal team 6 look like a weekend airsoft squad...

Gotcha, and fair enough.

So what the OP should be saying is there is a thin line between “Talking like you’ve learned something about the topic” vs “talking like you have experience with the topic”. I can agree with that.

You sound like complete nerds using language like that when you've barely left your bedrooms not to mention actually going to war.


As a proud Webelo who served my country with honor, I agree.

Yea, I definitely regret all the partying and living it up at LSU over going to fight brown people in the desert. The dorky degrees, the blondes, the football games…just think, I could have given all that up to watch friends die and be haunted for the rest of my life because I shot some dude in the face from a couple of feet away.

You sound like a guy that has been out of the military for 50 yrs and still wears your fatigues around so people will see that you used to be in the military
