If that post doesn't confirm that you have the bergers, I don't know what post will.

By benefits I mean job benefits like retirement, health insurance, 401k etc.  Not whatever you were thinking of, unless for some misguided reason you don't see those as benefits

Yes, but other branches offer more benefits.

assburgers, who gives a fuck. my point is warman would step on a dollar to pick up a dime, aussieraeper would post a picture of it, finray would claim it was first posted on reddit, hurricane would moan how much a dollar would help him out, eleven bravo would claim how neocons twisted it, jay would lament that a dollar wouldn't buy a donut nowadays, tuckergustav would ban someone, KENNINGS would close the topic and Gibson would take another week off.

...they all have the exact same benefits. The only difference is signing bonuses.

Exactly.

All of the Federal Armed Forces have the same general benefits.
Major differences only show up between Guard and Reserve.
Guard generally gets better benefits than Reserve, as guard is State sponsored with Federal addon benefits.

Depending on the state you enlist to federal active duty from, you may also get additional state benefits after your end of enlistment too. Wisconsin was especially good to people I know.

Was a long time ago since I read this. Apparently misread.

Still, Army is better.

What are the rankings as far as state benefits go?

Actually, I'd take the dollar instead, maybe try to get the dime if able.

Actually, it's a Subaru WRX turbo.

The targets are steel plates between 25 yards (pistol), and 100-2000 yards(rifle).

Yelling "Freeeeedommm!" works okay if you're lofting a Scottish Greatsword.
Kinda fucks with your aim behind a rifle, though...

You know they're made in the same factory as the planes that bombed Pearl Harbour?

Thats why I bought my Subaru but really.

What's the difference between a D+ST threat and an EE Chats thread? About three pages. Ba-dum pish.

Interesting article, easily digestible even if the author seems like an obnoxious git.

Edit: My attempts to be topical are in vain, Jay informs me he has already linked to this article. Damn you all!

Here's a different, better, article on the wealth gap between the young and the old, and how old people are sucking everyone dry: http://reason.com/archives/2012/07/23/g … al-warfare
