I haven't ever seen a Condom in an issued survival gear I have received. I guess my unit just doesn't like me.

Isn't the Hitler one BS too? Aren't there "home movies" such as the one where he's telling Eva to film something pretty like herself ?
arewethebaddies
There's no sound in those movies. Some documentary series did a lip read and dubbed it

#17. You don't get bed sores within 3 days.

In truth, they were blisters from crawling. They resembled bed sores. But you are absolutely correct, not within 3 days.

Can we bring back the eugenics vote? I have serious questions about some people I work with.

Could you piss off with that social Darwinist bull shit. Fuck.

Sure thing, Herr Hitler!

NC was recently taken to court over their eugenics program. Seems like people can always make a case for something though.

we have reverse eugenics now, we pay the people who shouldn't be having children to have children.

Ooh, I bet you are thinking about black people, amirite?
CatsVanBags
He said "hand free money to people who shouldn't breed", and your mind went "He means black people.". Funny thing, that eh?
mabbo
The problem lies in who gets to decide what traits are favorable. Eugenics are great, until it's your family members being sterilized.
carolinaguuurl
Some of my family members need to be sterilzed. Hmph.
retunedspider287
It actually is super ineffective, you'd have to do it for a long time(2k years) for it to really work
scienceprimo
No. First off it's evil, let's get that down first. Second, it's ineffective because a single vision cannot possibly best natural evolution.
retunedspider287
And it's ineffective because you can't get rid of a trait for a couple thousand years
VonRichtofenlw
Eugenics is shit, inhumane and ineffective. End.

I was pretty sure that hole in pen caps was for making annoying whistle noises
DarkShroud
Some of the dumb assess that survived swallowing their pen caps only because they had chewed a hole in the back before hand.
LordIronskull
Which coincidentally will keep you alive long enough for someone else to notice and tell you to stop making that god damn racket.
JustARichard
I thought the holes were for air, so the ink doesn't clot
gloridiaz
I thought the holes were for air, to make it easier to remove the cap from the pen.

Sang that in my head to "Paradise City", then realize that was the wrong song.

That's nobody's business but the turks

Yeah, when the turks took Constantinople they changed it...

Went Constantinople. Came back Istanbul.

Can confirm we do not receive condoms in the military.

Well they now hand condoms out like LORs in tech school.

I literally told my buddies to do this when I was in. They gave them to us to prevent malaria in Iraq and obviously none of us used them.

My best friend stole 500 condoms from when he returned from Iraq. We lotioned them up and put them on a friends car during an ice storm.

Condom thing is true for Army Jumpers at any rate.
RuneKatashima
Can confirm you're not military. We're positively drowning in them.
AfroHo
Must be all the water they hold....
PilotIII
Ah I see what you did there.
FullPlateHero
It did specify it as part of a paratrooper kit.
therealtomservo
As a paratrooper, this is nonsense.
FullPlateHero
Fair enough. Maybe it used to be a thing and isn't anymore?
therealtomservo
That's what I believe, the army had a bunch of cool knick knacks back then. Like a clicker that only paratroopers had to link up with others
GaiusMarcius
I was going to say that condom thing is bullshit.
youmustaskjeeves
There is a condom in the sru-16/p parachute survival kit. Source: i pack parachutes and survival kits for the military 1/2
youmustaskjeeves
2/2 the slip of paper listing contents of the kit says "water bag"
Lanekoch
I remember seeing individual condom baskets at medical like civilians have candy baskets for kids.
Nintura1182
Can also confirm it says "parachute pack" in the post. So unless you're special forces or pathfinders....
geriatricsanatore
Or just a 5 jump chump like thousands of maroon beret wearing airborne Qual soldiers/Marines lol
Nintura1182
Pretty sure airborne dont usually jump behind enemy lines too often anymore like say the aforementioned pathfinders or airforce spec ops
Nintura1182
Because I was attached to the 182nd in both of my tours of Iraq. And everyone went in on foot.
geriatricsanatore
Fair enough but when I got my wings as an aforementioned 5 jump chump we went with full combat loads, no condoms lol maybe down range differ
N3ss3
The Vasa thing is not a fact, but a theory they came up with since the ship is assymetrical. Not the other way around.
argast
As always when this gets reposted. Too many cannons, not enough ballast, disproportionate - too thin and too high, etc...
N3ss3
Indeed!

Charity gives addicts $300 to get sterilized? I'm sure they took the money and went right to the "Doctor"
onedimensionalman
They give them the money after they undergo the sterilization.
shesaidgoodbyetotheground
If you have 35 min you should listen to this podcast on it: http://www.stuffyoushouldknow.com/podcasts/is-it-legal-to-sterilize-addicts/
AcoolOpotomus
No he means they take the money and then go buy drugs
Vilociraptor
Yes, but at least they aren't doing it while pregnant.
NextineX
Pretty sure it's saying they get sterilized, then get 300$ for whatever they want... Not just given 300 dollars to use for sterilization.
Natatattat
Ah, thank you.
Glumerlink
#1 while we were debt free our country went through one of the nastiest recessions, turns out we need debt
malexmatt
Mistaking correlation with causation is one of the most basic of intellectual sins. For rebuke, England also went into recession in 1837
khora
The voters will never allow a country to have a positive balance sheet.
owlfrog
Do we need almost $19 billion worth of debt though
WilliamKeith
What's important is ratio to GDP. Guy with $100k/yr income and $100k (non-mortgage) debt: trouble. $10mil/yr and $100k debt: no worries.
Glumerlink
trillion* and...as long as taxes stay the same we do, cutting is what jackson did but it bites you in the ass if you go too far
malexmatt
Jackson and every President before him outside of wartime. Debt reduction (and extinction) was a wildly popular policy in the 19th century
owlfrog
I see, I can't believe I made that typo haha
baronridiculous
What is it as a percent of GDP?
owlfrog
http://www.usdebtclock.org/world-debt-clock.html This says it is around 73% if I'm not misreading it
Hypercube9
You are. It's 100%.
malexmatt
More probably, the causation runs the other way: The short debt freedom lasted only as long as it did because a dip into recession 1:
retunedspider287
Every time we've tried to pay our debt it ends in recession or ends up bad for the economy. FDR actually tried to cut back and it hurt us
PerhapsAnotherPerspective
A bit oversimplified. Paying debt through revenue increases during times of expansion (ie Clinton in the 90s) is actually often beneficial.
malexmatt
We spent the entire 19th century paying down our debt. Eisenhower paid down the debt. That's like saying the poison causes the chalice
usernamesrequirefartoomuchwork
debt either sits in the public hands or in private hands, when govt pays off debt it shifts into the hands of businesses = economy suffers
malexmatt
necessitated further government borrowing 2
