   This is far, far down on the crap backbone. It's from 2007! For shame.

     Well, it was at least kind of funny.

     But the guy sells t-shirts? Are there really people out there buying t-shirts to commemorate anecdotes they read on the internet? I think this is equal parts "tentacles," equal parts "grim meathook future."

       Isn't that the basis of CaféPress' business model?

   The comments on this make me angry and sad.

   So there's a sensing session to find out why everyone is, well, fucking pissed off at 1SG and the CO. Yeah, they couldn't figure it out on their own. So, the whole list of gripes comes out-most legit, some not, and the 1SG just shoots everything down and says, basically, it is not a problem. Until this point, no one had mentioned the elephant in the room-that, for the entirety of December, we hadn't been released once before 18:30 (and that's the time I'd been in the battery-I'm willing to wager that had been going on for more than a few weeks). Then one enterprising sergeant made the following suggestion: "First Sergeant, would it be possible, on one day out of the week, say, Friday, to be released at around 16:00 so guys could go out and pay their bills and spend time with their families?"

   You would have thought that he suggested we shit on an image of the Virgin Mary. "Why the heck do you need to be paying bills on Friday? That's why we have payday activities! And you have weekends to spend with your families!"

   Hoo-yah.
