Dollars to donuts says you'd be exactly where you are now even if you'd had an attempt at ivy league education, so the angry black white kid act isn't getting you anywhere

I was accepted to the University of Pennsylvania but it didn't look like scholarship money or financial aid was forth-coming that summer after high school so I said **** it and accepted at Temple which wasn't giving me jack at first either but had much cheaper tuition.

Apparently that's how things work. They don't finalize the scholarships til you accept. I didn't know that.

I also got independent standing so I ended up getting almost a free ride at Temple so it's all good. Probably should have been more willing to go into debt by attending UPenn (and who knows what sort of ride they would have given me had I accepted).

Might be the biggest regret of my life. I hope to make up for it in grad school after the military.

Nonsense! Wait until after your next attempt at the marines. When is that, btw?

No offense, but you don't sound fit enough for the marines, even if you somehow pass the training.

And put me in boots and a rifle and have me do fireman's carries or hump with a pack and I'm a beast.

It's the raw running mileage that, combined with my running inefficiencies, leads to excessive stress on my shins.

What's your lap time on an ice rink?
When the US Marine Corps starts fighting wars at ice rinks, I'll worry about that.

How fast can you do a mile in snow shoes?
The most recent PFT I took was actually on an icy course, funnily enough. I've had some experience running in snow a few weeks ago when we got plenty of it here. No snow shoes though.


Although the US hasn't fought a cold-weather war since Korea...

All the more reason Canada will have the upper hand once we deploy our disruptive weather technology and invade. You'll be like the Germans trying to invade Russia in WW2... All these ***** Americans like Alby shivering when it's -5C and falling on their ass on the ice.

How fast can you scale a 100 foot ice wall?
Our Coast Guard is almost as big as the whole of the Canadian Forces. Good luck with that one.

Oh and our citizens are pretty well-armed. There are 0.9 registered guns per person in America.

It's fascinating how the Ivy League liberal arts degrees are so expensive, seeing as they're typically out-earned by state college engineering grads...
That's the price you pay for having rich parents.

They don't sound terribly useful.

Bunch of *******s that want to lounge around on beaches in the sun on the taxpayer's dime.

How much money would the US save by getting rid of the Marines?

Did the Army not invade beaches as necessary?

I don't think it was sunny enough for the Marines.

The military really does not belong at college. College should be about learning and the military only teaches you about killing.
And yet...

Well the military teaches officers really sophisticated ways of killing, haha. They're not just grunts.
ROTC is an alternative to going to a service academy.

No, rich privileged crackers are the most liberal of all.

Poor whites are the conservatives.
Heck poor nonWhites are even more socially conservative than poor Whites, its juts wealth distribution that puts them in alliance with the rich Liberal Whites.
