Learning about tactical radios and stuff. How have you been?
One of the recruiters I work with is a 25U, he told me about all the cool **** you can do in the service. Flying around in a Blackhawk tracing phone calls, then coming back to work an 85k/yr job at Raytheon. Plus, I work at a radio station right now, so it was right up my alley.
I mean like they're already dead.

Apparently the indirect fire infantrymen, the 11C's, ******* hate their mortars. No idea why.

Well that wasn't my plan there.
I thought it'd be a fun position honestly, and the mortars would be cool.
I guess they may be irritating to lug around and use in a modern combat situation but still.

It'd be fun the first couple times but imagine having to deal with it for an entire year.
Yeah scoot and shooting for that long would get bothersome.
I get to sit at a FOB with a radio truck, so I think I'll be pretty set.
I'll probably never have R&R. I'll be using whatever time I get to sleep.
so explain to me the concept of time with in the universe, is it real or is it what we make it?
Well that's pretty complicated subject there. Space and time can be thought of as one very difficult to interpret entity, and as such, things that can warp space can also warp time. Like how being near a black hole or a white dwarf or anything else incredibly dense can speed up the perception of time. I didn't want to call on a reference to Interstellar, but it's essentially like that. The perception of the passage of time can vary depending on the total amount of total gravitational pull the object is experiencing.
They've done experiments with satellites where they perfectly synced two clocks, one on earth and one in space, and then left them there for a while, and when they compared the two again they were off. So being away from the center or barycenter of a mass-bearing object speeds up the perception of time. Which means that if you were out of the sphere of influence of the sun or even the galaxy, time would appear to move much slower.
So, to answer your question, time is real, but the way it looks to us changes.

Hm, it's hard to say. I like the Adeptus Mechanicus and Sisters of Battle, but I always kinda felt for the Tau, y'know?
Some of it's kinda pretty but mostly it's a "o pls no"

Haha, wow. I've never blacked out or anything from drinking, I guess I just find myself in bed before that happens.

Always found some deserts to be pretty, and amazing for target shooting.
I have a WASR 10/63 (It's frequently on my bed with me like right now), Iver Johnson Top Break 2nd Model, H&R Pardner Pump 12 Gauge, Polish Flare Pistol with inserts, Zulu Shotgun, two M44 Carbines, and one trusty Mosin 91/30. And have a Crosman Optimus on hold at my local gun dealer.

Glocks always felt like holding a brick, totally uncomfortable to shoot without some good gloves. Rugged and reliable for sure, but they're not for me. I follow Taufledermaus and MattV2099 on youtube, so I let them do all the stupid **** with their guns, haha. I do want a semi-auto shotgun to shoot some magnesium loads out of though. There was a Browning A5 from like 1918 that was only $200 a few miles from my place, but someone else scooped it up before I could.
Man, that character is pretty ****** cute

I hate those.
I love me some revolvers, they're just great to me for whatever reason. Not to mention they're just sexy as hell. I know Matt and used to follow his stuff, he a funny gai. Aw you shoulda rushed and grabbed it, there's lots of shotties out there for good prices though which is a reason I do find them appealing even when I like rifles best.
I know, I wanna go cosplay her sometime

I love me some revolvers too, like we've got our Blackhawk and GP-100, problem is I just can't hit with them. We had these little orange sphere rolling targets, about 10 inches across, and if it got out more than 15m I could only land maybe one out of six shots on it. Man-sized targets, though, absolutely beautiful. They feel so good in the hand too.
You should send me a pic if you do, would probably make my day

I have a similar issue with pistols admittedly, I haven't found one that really seems to do the job but a seamstress does not blame her tools for her poor performance. Still though, I don't have a lot of luck with them for some reason. I can land rounds in black circles of targets with pistols but I don't seem to get any level of group. I think I'm still uncomfortable with them and get a little weary because of it.
Sure thing, no idea when I would though but we'll see.

I just need to practice with a good pistol, weirdly enough rifles and like I said revolvers don't seem to bug me. I do have a couple bad experiences with handguns as a kid though, so who knows it may just be me reflecting on that.
Also indoor ranges do not help, I get nervous for some reason when using a handgun in one.

First time I ever shot a gun, it was a Ruger P95, I limp-wristed it and the case shot straight up and landed right inbetween my forehead and my shooting glasses, burned the **** out of my eyebrow, had a scar for weeks. Learned pretty quick not to do that.
Anyway, as much as I like weapons, what else do you do in your free time? Music you like? Think I could get your steam?

Oh jeez, that's bad.
I like some music genres but I can be all over the place.
My favorites are Industrial, EBM, and Ambient. It's pleasant to listen to but sometimes I like Doom and Folk Metal a lot along with Big Band/Swing as well as it's electric counterparts. My steam should be the same as my name here.

I'm a fan of the older metal, myself, Dio, Iron Maiden, all that. I'm love Blind Guardian and Rhapsody of Fire as well, and when I'm in the right mood, Mos Def and Eminem. I can't find you on steam, so here's mine: steamcommunity.com/id/eughh

I love shooting out here for the fact that I can be putting rounds out and turn around to see this.
My uncle and grandfather have all the guns, we've got a 1942 91/30, S&W M&P15, 2 different Mossberg 590s, a Turkish 1911, a CZ-82, Ruger Blackhawk, GP-100, and 10/22, along with an AR7 survival rifle to top it off.

Well with the firearms, I would have to safely guess that you're from Arizona? I haven't been out in Nevada for awhile so I don't know the weather there, but that'd be my 2nd guess. Inb4 New Mexico, I do like it there however
That's quite the selection, I'm ridding of most of my stuff personally. Had a 42 91/30 a little bit ago but now I got my 43 because I sold the other. I've grown quite fond of the Mosin platforms for their price, ruggedness, and that they're just fun. I need to get myself a more dedicated handgun, but I don't like the handgun registration here.

That's correct, southeast corner of AZ, 5 minutes from the US/Mexico border. No registration for anything and I can openly carry if I want to, not that I want to.
Out of all the guns we have, even among my favorite shotguns, I always found myself shooting the mosin the most. Wonderfully powerful round, very cheap to shoot, every time I go out I put 100+ rounds through it and I still want to go back and do it again. I hazard to guess you're a Californian?

I think Arizona is interesting, though most I meet from there are less than appealing to me in every sense.
Don't forget it can become a spear and anything that somehow doesn't go down from the round can be stabbed quite well. With a little work on some of the meh tier models they can be amazing, I'm probably gonna use mine for hunting this next season. I wouldn't catch myself living there ever, unless it was in the Mojave and Death Valley but like hell would I ever follow their fascist laws. I'm from the quite literally frozen east, Michigan. Lovely place in some spots, but I find the Southwest to be magical in it's own strange mysterious way.

Well, I hope I can change your opinion about at least one Arizonan.
Furthest east I've been is Ohio in the summer, so I can't really say I've got a good idea of the weather out there, but I imagine it's pretty **** . I've got quite a few of these sunset pictures too, they're just so compelling to take whenever I see 'em.

Well it's not all, it's just the majority. I'm sure you're fine, I also seem to have an issue when I run into Mexicans because me and them just don't seem to mix at all. But here in Michigan, their population is smaller and they're kept in certain areas too so it makes for a weird situation.
Well, my car had ice chunks all over the windows and all but a couple of my pipes are frozen. So I'm having bottled water right now since I keep a stock for this reason. It's been routinely subzero. I live more north now but originally hail from Grand Rapids which so far has been the only city I get along well in.

Well you've already seen how white I am, so you can rule Mexican out. I never really got along well with them either, even though my school was like 70% Mexican. I tried, but it just wasn't really my speed.
I was actually born in LA, but my mom came out here when I was young, so I did too. I can't say I miss it.

I don't even get it, there's just this sense of apathy and entitlement they have that causes a ruckus. I don't know if it's because their daddies and mommies come over here and teach them that the good government will give them all they want or what.
Well at least you got away from it, it's ******* **** there in almost every sense. I found a few hidden nice people but lord it is the most self righteous and stuck up place I've ever been in my life.

We swung a Springfield XDm around at them, but decided we'd rather see their punk asses rot in prison than in the ground. I'd say that a warm bed is my favorite friend too.
They were already gone by the time we had the gun ready, so there's no way the law would have helped us there. So we just tracked to car down and got the ******* arrested. Got an even better car out of it too.

Ah well that sucks but hey it did turn out nicely for you which is a good thing.
Suigintou, she's from Rozen Maiden. She's got a lot of aspects I like not to mention I love her style and would wear that stuff erryday.
The title is a bit older looking back on it but it's had a couple newer continuations. An abridged description is that this one shut in lives with his sister as the parents aren't around anymore, but much to his dismay he ends up getting a suitcase with a doll in it that is it's own sentient that in almost every way is a person. As time goes on, new dolls which are dubbed "The Rozen Maidens" pop up and some become in a conflict called "The Alice Game" which is about them fighting one another and competing to get to see their original creator as only the winner gets to be the perfect daughter of their "Father." It's got it's share of cutesy stuff and is a title for those who don't mind girly stuff but nevertheless it's still a series that's interesting. Oh yeah all the different dolls are more or less different styles of lolita fashion.

I have that on DVD funny enough, just couldn't help myself and had to have it.
Galil is by far best girl, I'd love to have one around. Though the Golani Sporter which is the cheapest one is still 700 at cheapest and those are far and between. I see most go for 900-1000 and for that I'll just kit out my WASR which I love and does the job already.

You're the first person that I've talked to on this site that didn't question any name I've used and has brought up an actually nice firearm. Well, that's quite pleasant actually.
Century is alright nowadays I've noticed, at least with simpler designs. Though the marks they put on surplus are usually disgusting and terrible in every way. Makes me miss my first rifle which was an M44, got it when I was 16.
What branch and what MOS?

I did hear that Century is doing a little better, some videos saying "this one is good, I swear!" about some of their AKs. I am possibly the least picky person to talk to when it comes to firearms. If it makes bullets go, hell yea, weapons. I actually really want a Makarov, or similarly patterned gun like a Polish P83, with the reasoning that if I could do well with that, I can do well with anything. Everyone's got their own preferences, it's not my place to be some Kimber-toting arsehole who thinks they're better because they only use a certain brand or whatever. We've got enough of that here.

Chrome lined barrels make everything better y'see.
Four winds shotgun erryday, make all the dumbass 12 gauge loads. Makarovs are pretty cool, that's sorta the concept I use with some firearms myself and overtime it does seem to do some good. BUT MUH GLAWK! Though no harm towards them, they're good guns but they just don't... do me justice I guess. I never got much into them as opposed to 357 magnums of all shapes and sizes. Those, I can do well with.
