Haha, yup

Been sober for nearly four years now.

I don't miss it

Good for you

Thanks :D

I come from a long line of criminals and addicts.

Dont we all?

It seems that way sometimes, especially once one can spot the disfunction. I meet alcoholics all the time, who haven't even realized yet that the hook is set. C'est la vie.

What did you do in the God-emperor's army?

I was communications

Comms guy huh

When I joined, the mos designation was 31u, but was changed to 25u after a couple years in

Yeah

I liked the work

I worked in Operations. To be specific I worked in CIC.

I'm guess that's our version of a TOC

How long were you in?

Tactical Operation Coordinator? I dont speak Army

9 years, 3 months

Nah, it's basically just a command room, really. It might be different by the division, but it's where command for our flight operations was located.

Signal, intelligence and flight ops

Fairly similar.

CIC is the brain of the ship. We track contacts, assist (ie; do the navigators work for them) in navigation, plan engagement of hostile contacts and other things besides.

When there is nothing going on it's boring as fuck, when shits happening - your the eye of the storm

Comms is a big thing too

Yeah, sounds about right. Lot's of waiting, and then bursts of activity. I stayed pretty busy, mostly, but we had a fews day where things were pretty slow. My year in Iraq flew by, as did my three in Okinawa. I loved it over there, but fucking hated my unit. Most of them had never deployed, and it seemed more like glorified boy scouts. I turned the recruitment officer down and went on my merry

I'm about to pick up a van, convert the interior and live out of that while I save money. There's lots of cheap land down south and in the midwest. And some counties don't have building codes, so I won't have to worry about some governmental busybody telling me what I can and can't build.

Sounds good

I, as a right proppa Ork, will kill all those gitz callin themselves orcs in Skyrim

What is CIC? Command in Conquest?

Sup.

I just watched Replicas.

It was mediocre. Don't pay much for it.

However, if the tech ever becomes real, I want it.

is that the movie with keanu reeves

Yep.

i heard it was horrendously bad

Imagine a prequel to The Sixth Day without any action and bad cg with an attempt at drama (and Keanu is straight up out of fucks to give).

1h47m of bleh

But not horrendously bad.

Not, stop the movie in the middle and return it.
