uptight college kids don't go drink in Aggieville. LadyLorraine Send a noteboard - 22/04/2010 07:17:17 PM
if they drink, they do so at home or other people's houses.

If you're uptight and drinking in Aggieville, then you're MISERABLE in Aggieville. Which is why I only go on the very rare occasion.

EDIT: I would like to add, btw, that unless you've been to Aggieville, you really have no place to be saying what goes on there. I appreciate that you're standing up for the military, but the soldiers who come to Aggieville and act like entitled jackasses don't deserve it. They are NOT the only military guys who go to Aggieville, but they are the only ones blazoning it to everyone else. They're besmirching their own good name. The military guys who just come, hang out and act like normal people are fine. They are not who I'm talking about.

btw, if you want to continue to discuss this point, that's fine, but please do so over NB. This thread's rather down the page and this conversation a bit irrelevant to the post. so feel free to NB me if you want to continue to discuss this

I'm in favor of repealing DADT, but this made me briefly reconsider beckstcw - 21/04/2010 05:29:45 AM 1266 Views
...did you read the article? They aren't in the military any more. *NM* Ghavrel - 21/04/2010 05:31:02 AM 371 Views
Really? A few months ago Lt. Choi was still in the military, I didn't realize he'd been discharged beckstcw - 21/04/2010 05:37:47 AM 768 Views
No, in or out it's a no-go Isaac - 21/04/2010 05:48:25 AM 767 Views
There needs to be a rule that stops soldiers from wearing uniforms in bars beetnemesis - 21/04/2010 06:55:37 AM 705 Views
But if you aren't wearing your uniform at the bar... beckstcw - 21/04/2010 06:58:33 AM 705 Views
You wear a big sign that says I'M AWESOME: ASK ME HOW *NM* beetnemesis - 21/04/2010 07:01:45 AM 328 Views
Grabbing a beer with the guys after work is a pretty normal thing Isaac - 21/04/2010 07:45:16 AM 735 Views
I've seen it. LadyLorraine - 21/04/2010 12:52:59 PM 708 Views
Not a very fair way to look at it Isaac - 21/04/2010 02:10:47 PM 748 Views
perhaps not on its own LadyLorraine - 21/04/2010 07:06:09 PM 674 Views
Sadly that's not that uncommon SilverWarder - 21/04/2010 07:27:45 PM 780 Views
to be honest, I've probably met plenty of wonderful military people in the bars LadyLorraine - 21/04/2010 07:41:30 PM 738 Views
Could be. SilverWarder - 22/04/2010 04:45:29 PM 708 Views
every think the problem might be the uptight college kids? *NM* random thoughts - 22/04/2010 05:10:08 PM 315 Views
Excepting possibly finals period, I'm pretty sure "uptight college kid" is an oxymoron. *NM* Ghavrel - 22/04/2010 07:07:58 PM 323 Views
uptight college kids don't go drink in Aggieville. LadyLorraine - 22/04/2010 07:17:17 PM 937 Views
maybe I should have said stuck up college kids random thoughts - 22/04/2010 08:29:18 PM 853 Views
Uhm, no, college towns can be quite different. LadyLorraine - 22/04/2010 10:13:41 PM 668 Views
The navy and Marine do have rules against it at least for working uniforms random thoughts - 21/04/2010 04:06:10 PM 744 Views
Like Buzz Aldrin wearing his on Dancing with the Stars. Ugh. *NM* Sareitha Sedai - 21/04/2010 02:37:59 PM 341 Views
I'll bet he got permission to do that though. SilverWarder - 21/04/2010 03:26:43 PM 730 Views
well that was an air force uniform so it really doesn't count as military random thoughts - 21/04/2010 04:00:27 PM 900 Views
I'll remind you of that next time you want air support ;-) SilverWarder - 21/04/2010 06:00:32 PM 764 Views
I am a Marine we have our own air support random thoughts - 21/04/2010 06:15:01 PM 680 Views
Yeah - some of it pretty good too but still all small stuff SilverWarder - 21/04/2010 07:26:12 PM 719 Views
The F/A18 does OK random thoughts - 21/04/2010 10:11:13 PM 650 Views
It's all right, but not the best choice SilverWarder - 22/04/2010 04:30:07 PM 719 Views
jack of all trades pretty much defines the Marines random thoughts - 22/04/2010 05:13:21 PM 1077 Views
Oh not entirely SilverWarder - 22/04/2010 09:54:21 PM 1001 Views
I second that UGH *NM* Aisha - 21/04/2010 10:30:35 PM 321 Views
Hm. That seems to violate some significant 1st Amendment rights. Ghavrel - 21/04/2010 07:00:59 PM 688 Views
you forget that the military sign away their rights. *NM* LadyLorraine - 21/04/2010 07:06:52 PM 345 Views
That's why I specified dishonorably discharged. They're no longer in the military. Ghavrel - 21/04/2010 08:43:22 PM 728 Views
*shrug* sorry, I'm a bit cynical over how much the military EVER lets go. LadyLorraine - 21/04/2010 10:13:51 PM 694 Views

Thing is though SilverWarder - 21/04/2010 03:31:05 PM 822 Views
Well... it's a military policy. If they were protesting animal cruelty while wearing it, I'd agree beetnemesis - 21/04/2010 06:53:36 AM 920 Views
What beetnemesis said. They're not talking about rights for all gays, but rights for gay soldiers. Tim - 21/04/2010 09:54:09 AM 690 Views
Sounds a bit like they are damned either way snoopcester - 21/04/2010 11:01:36 AM 727 Views
It's peaceful and non-violent. I see nothing wrong with them making their point in this in addition The Shrike - 21/04/2010 02:12:54 PM 684 Views

they don't have the right to use the uniform to make that free expression *NM* random thoughts - 21/04/2010 02:39:45 PM 310 Views
Take it up with congress, the regulations are clear, no such right exists, it is expressly banned *NM* Isaac - 21/04/2010 02:46:14 PM 282 Views
The uniform isn't just handed to you after Basic with no strings attached. beckstcw - 21/04/2010 03:04:32 PM 777 Views
