    “I just wanted to pay for college!” is kind of a bullshit argument when you keep in mind that the alternative is taking on student loan debt rather than participating in the deeply evil shit that the US military is doing.

    Also it’s a fucking ridiculous tradeoff: Are you willing to shoot an innocent person/drone strike weddings for four years all so you can fuck around in Excel for the rest of your working life?

      “They were going to put me in jail for 30 days 😔😔😔” is patently ridiculous but somehow derpy, purehearted US troop narratives still scan to people?? Make it make sense
