Comments

  • I'll just throw this out there in case this does get sent to a moving train.

    Yes...I am active duty United States Navy

    Yes...I am a Pearl Jam fan, obviously

    Yes...I've been a 10c member for four years now

    No....I do NOT agree with the war, nor condone it.

    But...If I get called to go to war, I will go and serve my country to the best of my ability if needed, although I do not agree with the terms of being. Because I honestly have no choice in the matter.

    exactly, this dude was looking for this. i think pj fans can be in the military, putting words in my mouth won't do anything for you.

    I guarantee there are some pj fans that are in the military against the war. deal with it.

    I KNOW you're young - because you call everyone "dude" - even females. Anyway - you are certainly entitled to your opinion. :) This thread was not menat to be a new "Battleground." Let's keep it respectful (myself included!) :)

    Some people are very "grumpy" in the a.m. So - I'll chalk it up to that. Let's be nice. This thread is about our military members whom love Pearl Jam music. Let's focus on that.....! :)

    you insulted me. you got pissed because i posted something that a pj fan in the military might find interesting and you disagree with it. so you got your panties in a bunch and pretty much did the same ol' hypocritacal thing of speaking of the freedoms military provide then question why I would dare exercise that freedom.

    Wrong!
    I started this thread in order to get some education regarding military PJ Fans - ONLY! I would like some PJ military fans to speak about how they feel - about PJ music, the war, etc. ( NOT you - unless YOU are currently or formerly military). Either way we all love PJ music on this board. This is what keeps us all together - despite our different points of view! This thread has now obviously gotten "side-tracked" into some kind of worthless "bitch" session - of which is irrelevent! As usual. I appreciate the military for all that they do! Period. The end. I also appreciate the effects of the war. Period. The end. I'm now done with the thread I started -as I now apparently have to justify it to a youngin. Teaches me a great lesson - Stay the fuck off of this board - Too many teenagers!

    Wow, I never knew we could say who posts in our threads.

    Maybe I'll start a thread and only people whos favorite PJ song is on Yield can post in it.

    Never knew we could do that, cool.


    Whatever.

    Okay -
    apparently we both "bitched it out" (and I hope we didn't scare the military fans away from this thread). Are we done now? And you obviously are younger than me - and therefore more "computer saavy". So how do we move this thread to "A moving Train" - which I thought I had originally posted this....before this thread pisses off more people!!! Any idea? Mods...? Anyone...?

    You had some valid points. I would like to think I did, too! This battle is stupid...as I don't feel dislike for you. I truly don't know you. Or you ...me. This thread is out of control, eh? Ha! But I do still care what PJ military fans think. I hope we didn't scare them all off with all of this bickering. Truce?

    Perhaps you should check your PM's as well. Honestly - everytime I start a thread (this one and only time) or respond to a thread.....it sucks. It all feels like an "up-hill battle." I remain a Pearl Jam music fan. I'm not really a fan of this board.

    don't despair! its just the age old (well, new-age i guess) problem of how hard it is to understand attitude and feelings over the internet. sometimes people get interpreted wrongly, but on the whole, this board has lots of nice people:)

    Well I AM a 10C member...since 04 baby! Uhh..thanks for serving? Thank me for fixing the loud ass airplanes that piss everyone in Virginia off O.o

    Uh i'm an e-4 (Petty Officer 3rd Class) not very high up, but I just never studied.

    You must be stationed at Norfolk NAS! I started out at Langley AFB (Hampton Roads, Va!) No matter how one re-names things (bases.....) - it's still remains Virginia Beach, VA!

    Really? One would think so, eh? Anyway -just responding to an honest opinion or posting an honest thread can be very "exhausting" at times! We are beyond all of the bickering now - at least - hopefully on THIS thread! It really is important for the military, family members, friends of those in the military, prior service, etc., to speak out. It will help to educate those that sit here in the U.S., in this crucial election year. The military PJ fans voices will have the most relevence - to me! But anyone is free to speak up at this point!

    Not Active Duty but I'm in the Air National Guard.

    Spent some time in 2000 at Spangdahlem Air Base in Germany and ran into a guy stationed there with a stickman tat on his leg. Someone else stationed there saw my tat and said "that's just like "so-and-so's tattoo...what the hell does sit mean?"

    There are pj fans in the military. But my guess is that they aren't hanging out on this board. :)
    Like a word misplaced...nothing said...what a waste
