No money for college? Your fault for not saving up for the past 18 years or looking into student loans and grants.

Kid needs military for direction in life? Should have gotten that at home.

Wants to have fun blowing the enemy away? congrats, you raised a serial killer.

the military is for losers. we do need them and i'm thankful they are there, just like i'm thankful there is someone to fry up my cheeseburger at McDonalds.

That's a pretty dumb statement but then again there are a lot of real idiots out there so almost nothing amazes me anymore.

I know a guy in the Dutch Airforce and he was just picked to be trained to fly their F-16's. Is he a deadbeat loser too?
