I Have Some Life-Changing Decisions to Make

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

I'm quite new to this subject. Stating that I'm an idiot while providing a correction is redundant.

No, it isn't.  I occasionally correct people without saying they're idiots.  Nigel and Cain correct me all the time without saying I'm an idiot.

You basically repeated the Fox News/Rush Limbaugh narrative as if it were true.  Guess what that makes you?

Misinformed.

That's one way to say it, yes.

I can only use the information I have.

No.  You can go check the narrative against the facts.  In this case, it's an easy trip down memory lane, to 7th grade social studies.

My point was, I didn't have the information that would be derived from that comparison because I didn't make that comparison. I guess my mistake was choosing not to look up this information beforehand. However, figuring out new information was the entire point of this thread. This thread is serving its purpose. I am learning new information, including the information you've so

Yeah no. You obviously have the internet, which means that  if you have an inquisitive mind you have the information.

If you don't have an inquisitive mind, well I guess just good fucking luck kiddo.

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

Wow.

This was already a possibility. I've got the year of physical labor under my belt already. I've got a certification in Microsoft Excel (All three levels? I'll have to check again.) and ITIL Foundations, which came from a technology grant I acquired right after high school. So I don't know if I'll go to college considering I have access to a lot of entry level jobs with growth potential, just by having the Microsoft Excel cert and a technology background.

Also, I think physical labor makes you dumber in some aspects (Maybe it was just the kinds of labor jobs I was doing.), but smarter in others. By that I mean, I'm probably more coordinated and athletic than I've ever been, but I can't do shit with computers, compared to what I used to.

Please don't try to join. Physical labor doesn't make you dumber. You not practicing your technical skills made you dumber.

Actually, this is already in the works. I start at the Bujinkan dojo as soon as I get my desk job. I've practiced a bit before as well.

Lolllllllll has to be a troll. Well-played, son.

When he posted that I was all, "oh sweet baby Jesus. He will get eaten alive by everyone with that mindset." Life ain't no point-buy RPG where you have to choose between brains or brawn. Nevermind the total dumb with that mindset and thinking to join the military, as if soldiering isn't physical labor.

Some information is not interesting to me because I don't see its connection to the things I do find to be important. Obviously this information was a bit more important than I thought it was, or at least its connection to important information was more important than I thought it was. I also have a lot going on right now in regards to endless doubleshifts at work, etc., so researching all of this is not necessarily a priority right now. I accept that I'm not super knowledgeable on the subject, and that I probably won't be for a little while. I don't think that makes me stupid, though.

I mean, if my career was based on that information, and I wasn't trying to learn it, then that would make me stupid. I don't know, maybe trying to talk about it on a forum without research is stupid.

He was also going with the say-so of the recruiters about his projected ASVAB, and had this whole "the military will have you do what it wants not what you want and you're going to soak up bullets in a desert" when so much of that on the interwebs.

Woooowwwwlook at all this rambling internal processing that totally doesn't need to be voiced because nobody cares.

It was clarifying that my inquisitiveness is temporarily set-back, or barred from exercise. Not completely non-existent.

[Doktor Howl]

Good point. I also probably should've paid more attention in AP Government.

AP Government, yet you don't know what the duties of the various branches are?  Come on.

Okay, I'm done with this douchebag.

Have you ever considered shutting up when you don't know what you're talking about, or when it's irrelevant to everything and everyone other than yourself?

It's more that he consistently makes claims to education and/or experience he simply hasn't had.

There's a word for that.
