Even before Googling the term, I knew that some branches require more than others. Navy. Yeah, I think I'll be fine, but there is that possibility. Especially if I get a douchey Drill Instructor. My Dad was telling me stories about douchey Drill Sergeants he had. On his paratrooper training course there was a segment where you let guys with ropes sway you back and forth hard. It simulates being caught in a heavy wind current while parachuting. Instructor literally swung my Dad up as high as he could, then let go of the rope. Dad went head first into the ground.

Well you can't expect them to not test you.. Wouldn't be a good drill instructor if they didn't.. They're not there to be your friend, they're there to prepare you for a life in (possible?) battle.. Which translates to having to be a douche somehow, I'm not really sure how. But the same techniques used have been used for thousands of years, if you look in history, you'll find the harsher the training, the better army any given civilization had..
Take Spartan's for example.. Their army is absolutely legendary, but their training was almost barbaric when compared to our values of today.. spartans were pro life. they let you go through birth so they could throw you off a cliff. coat hangers and stairs are for athenians.
Of course a commie like you would think that >:
You unshaven barbarian! 1043/1092 Merits ~....~

I'm going to have the most trouble with getting my salute right, and getting my 11 Orders of the Sentry precise. Too many weapons to break... :{

I think I'm gonna work on breaking them tomorrow. I gotta be up for work in a few hours. :{
Well, Krizz laid down the hammer, but I noticed something really weird in the process.
I wanna push it, but frankly I'm a little scared >.>; Quetzalcoatl.Aistys said: » Artemicion said: » What was the minimum donation thingy for getting a charity cap? I think it was $5 or something.

Do I need to purchase the crysta beforehand then donate it after it's on my account? Psycho Slip said: » Oh then that makes sense, now it's time to just relax.. If I were you, and still there despite all the drama and tension, I'd be wanting to just get as drunk as possible.. Makes the overall experience much easier to just forget. Late response but.. Yeah I wanted to last night.. but everyone kept passing out. :/ So no drinking at all. Was lame as hell. Offline

I posted a bunch of pics in the lol thread and it got removed, I was being very vigilant in screening for naughty words, but I managed to miss one.. I took it out and resubmitted it (in another post) and everything was okay.. Just depends on what was removed and why I guess.

For any beer enjoyers out there, this is a brew I highly recommend.

Trust me, it's delish~ Okay nevermind that one, my question is, is a Charity Cap given to both of your accounts if you have two of em linked to your singluar Square-Enix account?? |
