But I don't have to prove sh1t to you do I?

I just have to be acknowledged by my fellow servicemen; what you think or believe is irrelevant.


You are a civilian and a filthy liar, your opinion on matters military including my service is not worth a cvvnt full of cold water.  Smiley Smiley Smiley


This thread is about karnal's heroic war deeds, do try to stay on topic.




That's right.

You don't have to do a thing.

You don't have to provide evidence, and you don't have to stop pretending.

For your own wellbeing, though, you should try to not get so upset when someone calls you out on your fantasy.

It's all good, dude.




But as I pointed out, you are a civilian, you are a filthy grub liar, and that is the reason I don't have to do sh1t for you.


If Vic, bwood1946 or brian ross asked for proof I'd be more that happy to provide all that they asked.


Do you understand now?



BTW do try to stay on topic, this is not about me, this is about karnal.




You make every thread about you, love. You can't conceive of a discussion that's not about bolstering your own fragile ego.

As soon as you understand you're a nobody, just like the rest of us, we won't have to pork your sorry arse anymore.

And then where will you be?

All dressed up and no place to go, eh?



And yet I have made every opportunity to make this just about you, even when you and greeg try to make it about me, I immediately turn the spotlight on our resident war hero, karnal.

I want to talk about your war heroic and all those 'decorations' you proudly wear.


Just give me the date and location, champ.



Straight to the date.

Maybe he IS an ADF man.




Starting to struggle a bit there champ, do you want to take a rest while you recuperate?  Grin Grin




I've got lube, and a leather belt to bite down on - I'm fine.

You?


Be careful he doesn't swallow his tongue. Some of them really squeal.

She thinks you're struggling, Greggery. Sounds like she wants to give you a massage.


She'll need to loosen the ropes first.

The one thing about the army: you never get a moment on your own.




dear Karnal,

The Doors Lyrics
"The End"


This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end

Of our elaborate plans, the end
Of everything that stands, the end
No safety or surprise, the end
I'll never look into your eyes...again

Can you picture what will be
So limitless and free
Desperately in need...of some...stranger's hand
In a...desperate land

Lost in a Roman...wilderness of pain
And all the children are insane
All the children are insane
Waiting for the summer rain, yeah

There's danger on the edge of town
Ride the King's highway, baby
Weird scenes inside the gold mine
Ride the highway west, baby

Ride the snake, ride the snake
To the lake, the ancient lake, baby
The snake is long, seven miles
Ride the snake...he's old, and his skin is cold

The west is the best
The west is the best
Get here, and we'll do the rest

The blue bus is callin' us
The blue bus is callin' us
Driver, where you taken' us

The killer awoke before dawn, he put his boots on
He took a face from the ancient gallery
And he walked on down the hall
He went into the room where his sister lived, and...then he
Paid a visit to his brother, and then he
He walked on down the hall, and
And he came to a door...and he looked inside
Father, yes son, I want to kill you
Mother...I want to...fcck you

C'mon baby, take a chance with us
C'mon baby, take a chance with us
C'mon baby, take a chance with us
And meet me at the back of the blue bus
Doin' a blue rock
On a blue bus
Doin' a blue rock
C'mon, yeah

Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill

This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end

It hurts to set you free
But you'll never follow me
The end of laughter and soft lies
The end of nights we tried to die

This is the end

This is the end


A good soundtrack to a good story: Conrad's Heart of Darkness set in the backdrop of Amerika's total war in Vietnam. An Oedipal story about the son slaying the father.

But Nam wasn't like that for Aussies. For a start, it was a war, not a quest or an adventure. And the one, defining thing about war? 

Boredom.

Soldiers spend most of their time waiting. They never give you any information. Finally, they send you into some dumb mishap, and it's all over in a couple of hours. You sink or swim. Most soldiers only get a couple of battles. You get in - and out - as quickly as you can. And that's if you're not injured or killed. Those soldiers only get one.

Modern soldiering is usually peacekeeping - gangs of kids walking around the streets or going from house to house feeling important. We did a bit of that in Nam.

But jungle warfare's in and out, mostly finding nothing, or if you do, copping a hiding. Soldiers knew from the pointlessness of it that it was unwinnable. Sure, there were a few Big Hole bullsht-artists over there, and officers and careerists, but the blokes that went into the jungle knew: it was their country, they'd keep it.

All the rest was hanging around barracks in the humidity, drinking warm beer. Endless cleaning, pointless drills. The devil makes work with idle hands, and boys' minds turn to mischief. You had to be able to look after yourself. The officers were scared shtless of us. The NCOs were cnts.

Now if I feel like it, I'll give you a real ANZAC Day story. But if I hear one peep out of Hole, it's off.
