I also learned that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is coming, which although unsurprising is something of a disappointment.

The thing about Paul Revere's midnight ride was bullshit too.


Eh, I knew that one already.

You mean where he single handedly convicned the British to leave by telling them Washington was gonna fuck them up?

And then turned into the Incredible Hulk and jumped into space. Yeah, that one.

Old person said 'Back in my day, we didn't eat toast like you youngsters.' And so I said 'Back in your day, they made bread by smashing grain with a club.'

Nah I kid, in all honesty that was just me being snarky about someone on here who thinks numbers mean everything in regards to NS warfare.

What?! If history's taught us one thing, it's that the larger army is always the victor, regardless of deployment, leadership, terrain, equipment, and tactics. :p

I remember that. 'Ol Paul and I were sitting in a tavern enjoying some booze, and he starts ranting about how he saved America from the British. So I says to him, "Paul, you were busy getting your jollies at that army brothel!" And he says, "Yeah, but the British were coming!"

I learned I need to work out my fear of roaches.

One just crawled up my pants and into my underwear. I freaked out, and the ensuing battle was not pretty.
