In fact, being a virgin or a ranger are similar. If you aren't one, nobody really gives a shit why. On the other hand, there is something you can do to remedy not being a Ranger: earn the right to call yourself one. SW laid out more information than you appear to deserve -- you came into our house. Please be a good guest or be gone. It's all up to you.virgin wrote:be sure that i am not, Ranger RTO.RTO wrote:So.............are you a virgin?

To put Jim's comment in the form in which I originally learned it:
"Being a Ranger is like being a virgin. Either you are one, or you are not. If you are not, no one is interested in your tedious explanation of your unfortunate set of circumstances."
I have fast developed a dislike for you, young man. You have adopted a sense of casual familiarity with men vastly senior you to in age, experience, and guts. I find this insulting.
You would not dare insert yourself into conversations between these men were you in physical proximity, yet you do so from the anonymity of the web. If you had the temerity to address any of these men in person the way you did on this board you'd be lucky if all they did was snub you.
You come here ostensibly looking for guidance, then carry on like you are one of us.
Fuck you, I say. Tighten up your fucking shot group and show these men the goddam respect they have earned.

I couldn't say it any better, except to delete the 'good luck' part.PaperStreet 2/75 wrote:Good luck kid.
I can honestly say that I do not know anyone who joined the Army and was not a better man for it. You're 'friends' are fuck-ups. Pop smoke and get away from the losers while you still can.
You make your own luck.
Get started now.
