Default One more reason I can't wait to PCS....

Been in Tennessee all week (nuke lab TDY) and came back to find my daily driver had been hit-and-run. ****face scratched up my driver's side window and killed my mirror. Thankfully no paint damage or body damage other than the mirror.

And, as would be standard operating procedure in Maryland, they drove off without so much as a note saying "oops." I like how the off-duty cop who "patrols" our neighborhood has time to "ascertain my intentions" when i come home in the evenings, but he can't be bothered to even fill out a ****in report about the incident.

Found a new mirror for 25 bucks at a boneyard in upper marlboro, and i'll be picking it up monday. just one more reason I can't wait to get some orders.

That chit can happen anywhere. Watch you get sent to Cali only to get written up for a few hundred dollars in smog fines then as soon as thats paid watch the whole car get stolen lol.

Guessing you hit up Brandywine used parts?

Never had a problem with it in the midwest. I guess out there they don't have as much of an entitlement mentality. *shrug*


brandywine all but told me to pound sand. fairly classy. ripple's service.

I can't PCS to california; we own "evil assault-type rifles" and ferrets. both of which are illegal there. I'd turn down the orders and take my discharge.

Haha... I feel you man, the moment I got my orders to Hawaii the only thought that crossed my mind was " THANK GOD IM OUT THIS BIATCH!"... More or less same thing happened to me in the parking lot of my apt (7 oaks). Some a$$hat keyed my car from headlight to tail light, and the cops and apt management all pretty much just told me "too bad, can't help you, sucks to be you"...

Edit: Not to mention the jacka$$ who made me total my RSX on 295

Try having some douchebag kid flick u off while you are just cruising in the z after it being detailed while you were at work.

Being disrespected in uniform , almost got out of the car at the mall stop light to ****** him out of the freaking window.

Show him some level two combatives does to his pimply pre teen face.

Thats just a very light story but seems to be a re occuring one.

Never had that happen in GA or Indiana...or multiple other states i have lived in.

Was it a light-colored one, during a really heavy rainstorm a little while back?

Saw one that was NASTY into the guardrail just past the entrance from Arundel Mills.

As for California, I'll take a discharge before getting forced to move to that ********. 75% of what's in my massive gun safe is illegal there, and 100% of what's in my ferret cage is too.

Hell in Italy they dislike you purely for the fact you are American, even more so that we are military. Can't wait to get outta Europe and back to the US. If I ever come back to Europe, it will be Germany only. Btw, judging by your sig your Z is coming along nicely with mods. Good luck.

I had a 30-something cartboy at walmart in Bellevue, Nebraska (Offutt AFB) yell things to me all the time. He REEKED of ditchweed and patchouli, and typically would say disparaging things about President Bush, etc. Which is fine, no big deal. First Amendment and all that (not to mention he was in his 30's and the best he could do was cart-boy at wally world). Then one day he decided to ask me, in a very much "outdoor" voice, how many innocent civilians I'd killed so far.

Well, sorry...that's a bit over the line.

So I responded with "None as of yet, but the day is still young and I'm feeling kinda froggy. How bout you?" Laughter and a few applauders serenaded my ears. I grinned, turned and walked off, deer-in-headlights look prominent on his face. A guy followed me in and stopped me inside and told me I should have punched him square in the face. I told him I'd have been happy to, but being in uniform would have made things far worse than verbally pwning him. He agreed, and said "I'm retired though, so worst case the police smack my peepee" and off he went. Didn't hang around to find out if he'd punched the pig****er or not.

Hippies....bad for the country, great for target practice.

Well when you step foot off a military base your azz isnt kissed anymore... your treated just like everyone else is... i work with military everyday.. they expect people to bow down and kiss their shoes... then when they step off base they are brought back to reality where chit like that doesnt fly.. i have nothing against anyone in the service.. but the way active duty talks down upon us civilians is some BS especially on APG.. Well the worst is when someone trys to thro there rank into things, thinking its gonna speed the process of something up, but then again i have met some of the most mannered people in the military.. This is just from what i see everyday at work.. but most of you that are military on this forum i have met so far are down to earth..

Everywhere you go their are going to be idiots that cant drive, there will always be dump azz roads... its not just MD lol..

I left my xB at my friend's neighborhood in Germantown overnight. Woke up and the rear bumper is literally dangling. Some ass wipe hit and run... You'd think Montgomery County is a pretty good area.

Easy there, killer. Just because you work with some of the asshats in my profession, don't lump me in with them.

I make a very concerted effort to only be in uniform to, at, and from work, unless my chain sends me on an errand off-base during the duty day. And I DAMN sure don't expect anyone to kiss my *** just because of the job I chose. I didn't enlist so people would kiss up to me, but I do take exception to people assuming I did. I take even more exception to people like pothead mcslackerpants in Nebraska deliberately going out of their way to attempt to belittle me in public because of said career choice. Deliberate rude behavior in public is one of the few things I simply do NOT tolerate, and will gladly go toe-to-toe with someone who feels the need to air their grievances against the government with someone like me who has absolutely ZERO to do with government policies, and even less to do with those who set them. Assuming a random USAF E-5 has anything to do with that is not just plain ignorant, but we also all know that when you assume, you get *** from ME.

....wait, that's not right....
