As many of you have beaten me to the punch, I'll keep my ramblings short.

Yes, this week's comic (http://www.aisforarmy.com/comics/?comic=&date=20051207) is poking fun at those Army commercials that show how the new guy on the job has a bunch of experience due to the Army. The guy is always really smug about it, too. The kind of smugness that would get your or my ass kicked back at the hangar breakroom or the firehouse.

And the Army wonders why they can't keep people in. Their fucking recruiting commercial shows young, racially diverse key deomgraphics how great you'll do in your job after you get out.

They should have the civillian in the commercials saying inspiring things like:

"Hey Domer, bet you never got paid this fuckin' much, eh!?"

or

"Hey Domer, bet you're glad you got out before the Army really got you by the balls!"

or

"Hey Domer, they may have put up with your cocky ass in today's Army, but back in 'Nam, my Sergeant MAjor would've kicked me in the teeth for that kind of sass, mister! Get back to work!"

or

"Hey Domer, when we finish up here, let's go toss back a few Red & Whites and cornhole Bruce from dispatch!"

Well, not so much that last one, but you know firemen.

The link was in the text, Speed Racer. It's the word what says "comic" and looks not right. You can even print it out and go to town with your Crayolas.

Please don't sue me Crayola!

Did anyone else notice that they've revised that particular Army advertisement? They removed the last few lines of dialogue. You know the:

"well you sound like you know what you're doing"

"I do."

something to that effect. I always thought that guy sounded like a cock when he said that, guess the ad wizards at the Pentagon finally figured that out for themselves.

I love the one where the guy comes back to all his friends.

Friend: So you jumping outta airplanes now?
Douchebag: No, I'm working with computers.
Friend: You couldda done that here though right?
Cue to intense battle flashback with douchebag on the computer.
Douchebag: *Douchey smirk* Not exactly.
