"How'd I get here? Ah, it's a long story. I graduated from UMSOT (Undergrad MS Operator training) and test pilot school in '77, back when it was on side 6. Oh, yeah, back then it was something different, we didn't have mobile suits back then, it was MWOTC... Anyways, when the war started, I was a ball pilot for a few weeks, flew three sorties and scored a lucky kill on a Zaku I, and 'cause I was the only one with a kill under my belt, I got chosen to fly with some secret squirrel things on the White Base (back then they just called it the Pegasus). Turns out in order to work on that top secret, feddie zaku ripoff, we couldn't be active EFSF personnel. We got discharged from the service so we could fly for some private shell company. Yeah, we lost MIL benefits, but the pay was so good we figured we'd go for it. We had three weeks to study the manuals and get trained on the simulators while we flew out to our assignment. They put me on the RX-78(a3/4) , but when we were en route to rendezvous to Side 7, the EFSF gave me my walking papers. Turns out, get...get THIS shit: They didn't "need my services any more." Can you believe that? One of the only guys trained on their new, crazy invincible MS, and they fired me.They tossed me, an ace, a qualified TEST PILOT out on my ASS. FOR A G/D FOURTEEN YEAR OLD. Yeah, you know who?! It was the doctor's kid, right? Remember that Tamm Ray guy from the training videos? Yeah, he got HIS kid to be the gundam pilot. Oh, no they tossed all of us. The entire team of mobile suit pilots, gone. Didn't even reassign us. So we're sittin' there, just lookin out the window, watching the stars go by, just angry as all hell, y'know? Fuming. I get an idea, right? So I says to the other guys, who cares? The zeeks need us more than the feddies do, so I went up front, showed the captain our discharge papers, and turned that sum'bitch around. Anyways, long story short, boy do those GM's explode easy! Oh man, jokes on them, the feddies drafted a LOT of stupid 14 year olds to drive those death traps.....so uh, what brings you to Axis?"

Recall the article (7 million men not in the work force) earlier this year. I loved this quote then….and TBH I honestly thought I had this clipping since 2020, it left that much of an impact on me.

Napoleon’s quote about picking up the crown of France from the gutter comes to mind.

hate that we only got one little hint at it.

awww. I’m surprised japs even have these memories when they only have 1.03 kids per marriage

I’ve said before it’s not totally out of the question for a convoluted chain of phone calls to have been made pressing on the editor/publisher in order to prove eren ‘wrong’ in the end. There was a lot of hubbub when the show was popular stateside about it ‘glorifying fascism’, to the point normies got into it.

I would totally expect some bureaucrat functionary to put in a ‘good word’ to make sure this newfangled pokemon franchise doesn’t “embolden the alt-right”. That’s how a lot of sausage is made behind the scenes.

I still like these. A fren had one once upon a time and it was actually pretty slick. If you have the money to burn, you can spend it worse

“uh….I was told to apply by Cal…..something or other. I forget his name, average sized guy, one of your production managers? He specifically told me to put a resume in.”

then if they say he doesn’t exist pretend you’re less interested if he’s fired

He’s been bragging about how rad it is that she’s a ball buster, because I told the guys about how I have to do all the grown up stuff for the catwife

When you think about it, this guy calling it “a flex” is lowbrow too, instead of “show of strength” or something

"he's black, he's got style and coolness!"

Are you guys under the NRLB like the airline guys are? It’s always hilarious to me when they try to posture. They’ll make a big deal about making authorizing votes for strikes knowing the government will never actually let it happen

Funny how the second you codify a union and give it a mailing address it can’t effectively advocate for you anymore

y’know, it’s just #NIGGIN’

What’s so confusing about niggin’? Niggas gon’ Nig, nah’msayin’?
