Prove to me that it didn't work!

Have it on good authority they found his dick. Was still in car. I picture him trying to flip it out the window and it blowing back in like a cigarette.

I have been thinking of posting about this song and how it hits home with me. In light of the past 24 hours here is what I e been thinking.....

From April 14, 2016

For more randomness Corey.....

I'm sleeping since we worked a night shift. All of a sudden I hear talking over a loud speaker, "rocket launch, rocket launch, rocket launch." I wake up all confused as shit because we haven't gotten that an ounce mentioned before. I yell out to my fellow workers in the sleep tent but no response. Then the loudspeaker announces, "incoming, incoming, incoming" with a siren (alright I've heard this one before). I lay flat on the ground next to my bunk while trying to wake the other guys. Still nothing. Then the loudspeaker announces, "50 seconds to impact, 45, 44, 43.." I'm wondering how accurate the count down is and contemplate running to the hard building. But the worst thing to do is being upright when a rocket explodes near by. "30, 29, 28..." I hear our tent door open but nothing is said. "20, 19, 18..." Now I'm thinking of my life choices and why this career path speaks to my soul. "10, 9, 8..." All I can think about is my wife and son. Tell them I love them "3, 2, 1..impact impact impact!" 3 seconds go by,then 5 then 10.....I'm thinking what the hell is going on, surely I am not dead and my concious is just picking up from my last "alive" memory is it?!?

Another 10 seconds goes by and one of the guys who ran out to the hard building came back in and said, "that was a fucking test!"

That fucks with your head more than a rocket, unannounced, hitting within 300m. I'd rather be surprised than hearing a potential countdown to your posible demise.

Now I'm expected to go back to sleep so I can fly in 5 hours....whatever.

I'll be a little vulnerable here and admit something that very few people know.

This day has weighed heavily on me today. I remember it as vividly as it was 10 minutes ago. I wrote this within the hour of this happening, right after talking with the wife.

I reread it and it brings back so many memories, good (guys I worked with, the SEALs I worked with, and the 169 dead ISIS guys I helped see their maker) and bad (the emotional and mental toll it took on me that lasted longer than I thought it would).

This happened in 2016 and I just pushed through as if it was another day of the week. At that moment it wasn't any different than a random Tuesday. In 2018 I went to Syria and thought I was helping Syrians fight against ISIs. All I was doing was babysitting Russian force movements. I went from one location and was moved to another location.

I've always thought that I was mentally strong but ended up having an anxiety attack that I couldn't get under control by myself. Within 5 hours of hitting ground at the new location I was on a convoy back thru ISIS controlled area to the nearest US airfield and left the country that evening.

For months loud sounds put me on edge, if the wife and I were sitting outside and something loud happened or a helicopter was flying overhead I insisted on all of going inside away from the "danger.". It got so bad that I had to see a psychologist to get me thru normal daily encounters.

There is a song by Falling In Reverse called "Popular Monster" that spoke to my soul during my time of my weakness. There are days I'll drive down the road listening to this song and it almost brings me to tears because I understand the struggles that my fellow brothers and sisters have when it comes to PTSD. I'll never say I had)have it. I like to think of it as a momentary mental weakness.

Here is the song:

[GeorgesGoons]

This song rings true for me because as a "popular monster" you have this persona that you are the fun happy person that you once were, but now you have a hatred of mankind and struggle to fit in without the masks.

For the record, I don't need condolences or the random hope you feel better. I am 100% okay with where I am mentally. There may be a couple of days a year that brings me back to this day in Iraq where I was scared to death. If anyone ever thinks they feel the way I did and you need someone to talk to I am available 24 hours a day. Even though most of us have never met I would drive days to help you out.

Alright fuckers! I'm done being vulnerable.....so with that being said, Toronto sucks donkey dick

[GeorgesGoons]

With all that being said.....

I'd go back in a heartbeat

My hometown is about 35 or 40 miles away from this place, which used to be where I spent alot of time in the summer.

It's called Grand Isle, it's basically in the gulf. There's a lot of older people who would never ever evacuate for any hurricane. The eye is 75 miles SSE of Grand Isle right now.
Those folks are doomed.

[Uuaww]

we evacuated to tuscaloosa last night.

[shel311]

28 people stayed in Grand Isle. The only road off the island is already flooded.

This Bishop Sycamore story is wild.

Apparently it's a fake high school with a football team of older dudes that tricked a few teams into scheduling them.

They played a game on a Friday night then another game 2 days later... on ESPN against a nationally ranked team.

No clue how ESPN got duped like that. Supposedly Bishop Sycamore sold themselves by stating they had multiple big time recruits, and ESPN who has their own recruiting service never bothered to research or ask them the names of those players.

[GeorgesGoons]

That's freaking crazy

[wdoupis]

That is the craziest story I have ever heard. How is that possible?

[Weasel]

ESPN looks incompetent reading the story honestly

[ReignOnU]

I don't know about incompetent, but most definitely lazy. They'll shuffle the blame onto the marketing group that they used to put it all together.

ESPN showing the is less surprising to me than IMG scheduling them. (though possible they are directly tied to the agency)

With that said... both are less surprising to me than Lakewood St. Edward and Akron Hoban on the schedule. It's been a few years since I've paid a ton of attention to how the playoff computer points work, but I have to imagine that having a non-sanctioned OHSAA school on the schedule and one not within another state sanction that they can adjust for, means that the computer points related to playing them are next to nothing. Though I do know that they've expanded the playoffs so much that you can actually have a losing record and get into the playoffs in some cases. So maybe they just figure it's better to play a trash setup like this as a mid-season scrimmage. Bizarre for sure.

Former Bishop Sycamore player Aaron Boyd has spoken out and given some troubling details on the dynamic of the team. He admitted there is no campus or form of education and that the team regularly pays hotels with bounced checks. Furthermore, players had to sleep on the floor of hotel rooms and often robbed stores just so they could eat. The more details come out, the more this sounds like a movie in real life. Unbelievable.
