Whoring For The Man

by The Usual Suspect

Being a civilian is awesome, but if you're young and doubly awesome like me, you know that money goes quickly. That's why I've devised my latest get-rich-and-fuck-everyone-else scheme.

A book. It'll be called The Deploying Soldier's Handbook or something along those lines. It will feature chapters such as "Jody", "Collateral Damage", "Places To Masturbate", "The Kids Are Thieves", "The Hot Chow Game", "When Friends Start Dying", "Lies To Watch Out For", and "The Trick Is To Stare Until It Doesn't Bother You Anymore (This Also Goes For Weird Porn)" among many wonderful and informative others. Guaranteed to beef up recruitment numbers.

Love to hear from you no matter what. Don't worry about having fun, living free is fun enough. I think your book is a good idea. It will save guys time looking for places to masturbate - such time consumption could be used more wisely. You have much to teach - take care and keep writing. love lorraine

I miss you! Going through some rough times. Thanks for the chuckles. Sounds like you are having some fun and your sense of humor is still in full gear. Kudos to the girlfriend tryin' to keep your rowdy ass in line. Gods bless you Ryan. I think of you often and I wish you the best always.

You write it, I'll buy it! Thanks for starting my day off with a huge laugh.

You instigators keep encouraging me, and maybe I will. Then the Extreme Right Reich will run me down like a dog, but atleast newer generations will know how to spot Jody. I heard that artillery impact areas are places that people never bother to go into. Don't blame me when you get caught trying to bury that piece of shit though.

Really though, every Jody deserves to be raped and murdered in the deep backwoods.

I also dabble in writing children's stories.

Actually sounds like a pretty good idea! Do what you know, and you know getting by! Use it. z

Way to make your sweet, wonderful girlfriend sound like an abusive wench.

You are SO getting your ass kicked when you get home with a swift "Bitch, get in that kitchen!!".

NUGHT said...

membrain said...

Sounds like you're having a supiciously good time. Keep it up. A book would be nice. You could put the part about the combat jerk that you deketed in it;-)

Army Sergeant said...

You're here with Stoploss, and I'm an ignorant asshole who doesn't pay enough attention when reading shit. I'm glad you're still blogging too. Between the two of you, I expect both great and horrible things.

This is one of the funnier things I've read in weeks. Part of me was waiting for the 'priceless' at the end though..
