I thought it was lame as hell. The "almost getting shot" part is BS...that kid (at 2:00) didn't have anything in either of his hands. Download the video, blow it up, and I see nothing there. He's wearing a black shirt and has a shiny watch on...when he moves his arm, you still see nothing in his hand (against the…

"rebellions in Tibet"

What?

I sent this to my siblings (who are more interested in things like Jersey Shore and Teen Mom (considering that two of them ARE teen moms), and not interested in anything related to...well....something that is far more interesting).

I'm not sure...it depends. Especially on shutter speed, because if it's not fast enough, you'll just have a ton of glare. But I'm not photography expert...I do minor pictures/videos through my 8" SCT, and I use a natural white-light solar filter for this stuff.

I am not dismissing ALL rebuttals to my comments as "typical man-hating" - just the ones that come off as such. I have no need to "check myself", and you are correct that I am not trying to be malicious. MOST of the comments directed at men (really, go back and look in various posts...it's the same in almost every…

I wish I could promote your comment. I agree that this "us vs them" mentality is just plain dumb. A man can't say ANYTHING related to a woman's physiology, etc, because we're men and by definition haven't "suffered enough". Yet, women can say all sorts of things about men, either demeaning, inflammatory, or…

It's not "desecrating" to me...I never put the uniform up on a pedestal. I merely mean that the two issues that crop up with BFing in uniform are 1: it's entirely not suited to the situation (as a means of comfort and "accessibility"), so why not just do it somewhere else. And 2: It lowers the "scary" factor of the…

Yes, but a broom is infinitely more useful in a zombie apocalypse than a gun. Your 6 round chamber is like sounding a very loud alarm to call more zombies over...yet when they get there, you're out of ammunition.

I've watched it a few more times, and don't see where they're advocating gender-selective abortions. The woman came in with a request. The PP person helped her with what she would need to do for the request. I guess we'd also have to think about "OK, so if she doesn't want a girl, and it IS a girl, what happens…

I've never had it happen, but it just goes to show how fucking ridiculous the military has become. At least the branch that I was in, and the people that ran that roach circus, it seemed more like a corporate workplace where they wore uniforms instead of business suits, but still had the douchebaggery floating around.

double-post, oops!

Thank you for bringing this up. AFI 36-2903 clearly states this. However, I was not in fatigues. I was in PT gear. While this is still considered a uniform, the local reg that was for Kadena Air Base in 2006 (somewhere between February and August, if I can remember correctly) clearly stated (again, at that time)…

It does make it awkward. There are all sorts of stupid rules:

Haha, those are good times. As a military contractor, there is another analyst who works in the room with me. He was previously a Lt. in the USAF, until they started letting them go back in 2004-2006. Another person is a retired CMSgt. The CMSgt and I giggle about picking on officers "back in the day" (I've only…

You don't say? REALLY? And I've been missing them all this time, to stare at those (mostly) glorious breasts? Can I claim helplessness from "hi-beam headlight syndrome"? No? Ok, then. Thanks for wasting some bytes on the internet with your useless comment.

Yes, I am an adult. However, as a man, many of my opinions and comments on Jezebel are dismissed offhand because of my gender, whether or not I'm actually being serious (I usually am).

I'm not trying to dictate what they can and can't do in any other portion of their lives. I'm saying that, in my own personal opinion, that if you are wearing a uniform that is notoriously difficult to "do stuff" in (breastfeed, take off fast for lunchtime sex, etc), perhaps it would be best if it was done in a…

Very true. However, I've also noticed that some mothers would rather do the "fuck what THEY think, my kid is hungry" route and do NOT have special bras/shirts for this purpose. If it's not financially feasible, I can understand - but a little bit of privacy wouldn't hurt, y'know?

Thank you, Nick Westphal. Your comments, as are those of NeoTechni, are wonderful. Thank you for not lowering yourself, as others have, to insult or demean me because of a sincere question.
