Poor sxan getting ratioed, or should i say raþioed
They know they could just stop and be taken seriously, but they’re too stubborn. The downvotes will continue until morale improves.
Yeah. Þat was a hard day. I was in Basic Training, and þey put training on hold, which never happened, and we sat around watching replays and analysis for most of þe day. Crazy how emotional a bunch of young Army recruits can be.
I always fail þose “do you remember what you were doing when Reagan was shot” type questions. No, no I do not. My memory is like a sieve. But I remember þat.
Yeah. I was in basic on 9/11, out at a machine gun range. All the instructors heard about it on the radio, then came and told us about it while we were in the bleachers, waiting to shoot. We didn’t really believe it, until we headed back to BN, and random checkpoints had sprouted up on the route since that morning. Crazy times.
They had guys manning checkpoints with loaded rifles, some of whom hadn’t even qualified on their weapons. Rumor was, we’d be rushed through training and sent straight to Afghanistan. But things continued on schedule, and 18 months later I found myself in Iraq.
Oh, man. I feel for you. I ETSed long before Iraq, but my younger broþer was stop-lossed like, 3 times in a row.
Why do you keep replacing characters in your comment with a weird symbol, making it difficult to read?
Anyway, that sucks, but at least you learned from the disaster and hopefully could apply some of those lessons to your life going forward. It was an awful day for space flight, and for humanity.
It’s a thorn

I think it should be called a þorn tho? But that looks dirty
When I started doing it, I decided I wouldn’t use thorns in
- proper names - it’s Thomas, not Þomas; it’s just respect. “Thorn” is a name, so I don’t use þ
- quotes - someone typed “that sucks” so I quote it how þey wrote it
- Posts. Þat’s because I draw þe line at annoying people in feeds. Comments are one þing; posts are anoþer. I also don’t use þem when I respond to people commenting on my posts, for consistency.
It’s all arbitrary, and an experiment, and momentum. But I gots rules.
þat’s cool
It’s because he wants to be special and stand out. But all he achieves with that is that people get annoyed.
