That's our politics, which is a totally different matter save for the unfortunate impact they have on where our military ends up. Doesn't change the fact that our focus on asymmetrical warfare has lead us to make a military in which independent branches can flatten other people's entire armed forces.Captain Seafort wrote:Bogged down a couple of shitholes achieving two thirds of f**k-all?Lighthawk wrote:It's the primary policy of the US military, and look what it's gotten us

Fortunately for you, you mean.
BTW, for someone who enjoys your so-called "taking the piss" so much, you seem to be having a hard time recognizing it when it happens.

When confronted with piss-taking, the best solution is to respond in kind.

Re: DS9 era series thought...
I've never understood how "taking the piss" makes any sense. First time I heard it was when I was sleeping with the 20 year old Philipino girl who lived in London. Then, imagine my surprise when she disappeared for 15 minutes from work and nobody could find her. When I asked where she'd been she replied
"I just had to wrap my lips around a fag."
I stood openmouthed until she realized that I was clueless when confronted with "over the pond" slang. She quickly explained she went for a smoke.

In which case it just might have been a good idea to say so originally.
