That makes sense. I think it's good to have guys like that put others in their

Saying "buck up" is just fine.

It's this opinion that frustrates me sometimes.

Now you're losing me. It's just not the same thing.

Lol dude, please go watch lone survivor and tell me who has a more difficult job

I'm not saying they don't. It just seems ridiculous and ungrateful to thumbs

Saying their service isn't distinctive is very ungrateful.

I honestly don't know what you are talking about.

The people who thumb downed probably don't like the MI complex

Shimmy

I don't always like the MI complex. A lot of people don't for good reasons.

Heck, Ike was famously wary of the MI complex.
