It's a crying shame there are so many ignorant, poorly educated young people nowadays.

I joined the military, spent 22 years in, got 2 Associate of Science and 1 Bachelor of Science degrees while I was in, and got my Master of Science in Management on my G.I Bill after I 'retired'.

Military service is still the best means of upward mobility for the poor, minorities, and immigrants; as long as you at least graduated from high school, which is a pretty low bar. Yeah, you run the risk of getting killed or crippled for life; but it's still worth it.

I think it's very funny. Those of you who do not think it's funny just do not understand it.
Nothing inappropriate there. Thanks for sharing OP!!

My thoughts exactly. Amazing how many folks don't know the difference between "THERE" (a place) and THEY'RE (contraction for they are) and THEIR (showing possessive) and many of them are college grads.

I am also amazed at the folks on TBN that use "PROLLY" rather than "probably" in their post. What it is saving is typing 8 letters to show comprehension of the English language rather than 6 that some illiterate person would use for internet slang.

I encountered PROLLY about 5 years ago, in a "text". It then seemed to migrate into speech at about the same time. Several of our speech patterns have been changed due to the texting phenomenon.

Hmmmm. Seems like there's some preexisting beef between the OP and a criticizing replier.

The GI Bill certainly worked for me. After four years in the USCG, the GI Bill and my working wife got me through my undergraduate program and one year of grad school.
