What I'm trying to say is that you can be as dumb as a rock and still get in the military.

Well no shit Sherlock.

training means the fight or flight response is suppressed. Fight response is bad because its all instinct and little logic. Flight is bad for obvious reasons. So with enough training you don't do any of these responses and instead revert to your training

Halo said it best.

sooo

SOOOOOOOOo

Oh look Tyler, your cute Adventure Time gif made it to the front page of reddit.

Oh look, more smosh.

Cool? I don't read Reddit.

Shitty hot chocolate and shitty pizza. Yeah

It seems like the whole point is processing quickly, without thinking. Just knowing what to do because that's the way it is, not looking and evaluating the situation to come to the same conclusion. If I'm understanding correctly.

 

agreed.

 

 

sometimes you CAN overthink things. and sometimes you're stupid not to think.

 

I believe the navy will train ownage in the RIGHT way to react to situations.. especially life and death situations. <_<

Some people aren't in good moods today. This place is too tense.

Everyone here needs to take a weed needle and relax.

Does anyone else get urges to torture babies?

@ halo I agree. It's been a rough couple days here with all the criticism.

Oh gawd yes, the best part of XP.

I feel like (this coming from my Taekwondo training) military or other types of protective training teach you how to react to a situation without thinking about it. I.e., when I'm freesparring, I don't think, "Alright, what will be my next attack? Oh, I think I'll give a kick to the head, because he's open there right now." Instead, my thoughts are entirely focused on getting my opponent to do what I want, while I'm simply reacting to whatever opportunities I have, without thinking about it. I.e., "Alright, I'm going to hit him with a few body kicks so that he leaves his head free, and if he gives me the opportunity before I expect it, I'll just take it."

 

Putting that into the barfight situation from the last page, I feel like what the military person would do is think, "I need to subdue these two, but not hurt or kill them. If my partner's down then this is what I should do." (I don't have a specific idea for what you should do.) When the military person see's the gun, instead of thinking, "Hey, am I going to pick up this gun, or will that be too much force?", he'll either pick up the gun or not, without thinking of it, and change his strategy as fits his choice. Probably reaction will tell him to take down whoever is trying for the gun before they can get to it.

 

Just my 2 cents, I guess.

Hey, abc, how lond did it take for you to start hallucinating from sleep deprivation?

Is 321 gone already?

 

He keeps dissappearing right when I get on, or getting on right when I have to leave.

Do most people actually think in words?

You say that about everyone, Tyler.

Nah, I only say that about the people I like, because they're the only ones I notice when they do it.

 

So, like you, 321, and Goon.

I had a monopoly video game when I was real young, and it came with a little extra program that was that, but with a balloon animal dog. I played around with it for way longer than I should have
