The Lounge 0001 [From the Beginning]

What made you decide to get into the military?


Not a fan of those apps that listen to your and record stuff but I finally found the name of a song that got stuck in my head last night. Those 10sec bits that get you nowhere and the little lyrics you understand provide 100000000 results - none of them what you’re looking for.

Still feeling sick. Stuffed/sore nose, some coughing. But the worst part is that for some reason the incisors in my lower jaw are crazy sensible to cool air. No idea what caused that but I hope it’s only temporary.

Other than that? Had a blue screen yesterday (IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL). Updated all my drivers and found out that apparently my display driver wasn’t up to date. Then, AMD was being a derp again and wanted to uninstall ALL AMD drivers when I wanted a clean install (all means incl. the chipset driver). Then after downloading the latest optional driver version, it tells me the latest non-optional version is the recommended one…seriously? Bunch of derps.

Gonna be pretty damn cold in here soon… just about out of propane since they never came to deliver this week…

And they said AMD runs hot like it’s a bad thing :stuck_out_tongue:

Always been interested; and also kindof made a promise to myself that if I didn’t find something I really liked to do that also made money as a civilian would then join the military.
With the amount of schooling I have and job experience; can likely test into being an E3 or higher which means after basic will be $2000/month starting. Not to mention free housing, travel, medical, and after 3 years free college if I do want to do that again and finish a degree or three :smiley:
Oh also I might end up at Rammstein base, or some of the others in Europe… Or just in Langley if I do well in Crypto.
Thinking I’ll either do Cyber (IT) or Crypto (IT security). That or special forces if I can meet the physical requirements for it and etc. Because reasons.

So I fell asleep for a couple of hours and just woke up, still half asleep with all my fingers tingling and my fucked up mind legit thought I was being erased from existence. Laying there looking at my hand thinking this is it until I finally snapped back into reality.

I don’t know what it is but my mind goes crazy sometimes when I’m sick XD

Did you start up a storm due to it being late? I mean you surviving almost relies on it lol

Nah I was asleep when he came. They also never did say when they’d deliver it when my brother made the call.

And im still silver 1 in csgo :frowning:

Well I hit diamond 2 seasons ago when I first played ranked. then I missed it for a season (since I did solo standard exclusively) and now I’ve hit it for the second time this season. If I had been playing near as much as I used to I could easily be in the champion ranks. Unfortunately I’m not focused enough on any one thing to be truly good at it (at least in my opinion…)
