| I said raping a prostitute is just theft.
They said I was going to hell.
I didn't start the conversation. I think if they can't handle following something to the only logical conclusion, they shouldn't even be bringing it up.

| I was cleaning my(me and my roommate's) room Tuesday(four day weekend, what). When somebody came in, took one look at me and asked if I was getting ready for a room inspection. I, of course, looked at him like he was crazy and said no. Then my roommate chimed in and said I just liked to clean sometimes.
So am I the guy that just likes to clean? When did this happen?
Also, because someone might enjoy it, I was taking a nap that afternoon/early evening when this guy came in, he is well known for having a very strange speech impediment, in that he's always LOUD. He asked my roommate for a cigarette.
Barret "Hey man, can I get a smoke?"
Moyer "No, I don't have enough to be giving any out."
Barret "Well, can I buy one from you?"
Moyer "No, I don't have enough to be giving any out."
Barret "Well, do you want to go smoke one with me?"
Moyer "No, I just got back from smoking. What are you drinking on?"
Barret "Oh, it's rum, you want some?"
Moyer "No, that's okay."
Barret "Oh, well can I get a cigarette?"
Myself "He's not going to give you a cigarette, now get the fuck out."
After he leaves(which was pretty quickly).
Moyer "Well done."

| My parents recently revealed their concern about the amount I smoke, or should I say you recently revealed this (Because I'm pretty sure my mom is the only person who reads this anymore). And I do appreciate their concern, I'm not going to stop smoking anytime soon, for their sake I have been scaling back, but there is no chance I won't smoke at any point while I am associated with the military. That's just the way it is.
But I do have a plan, I'm going to stop smoking when my wife has to quit because she's carrying my child. This only seems fair.
Addendum that has absolutely nothing to do with the above. I wouldn't get so pissed off when I lose, if they didn't act so proud when it happened. It's not even as if I lead them on to think I'm any better than they are, my shit-talking is quite within the norm.
I don't know, maybe this is just them acknowledging the fact that I am better than them at everything.

| Of course not, but a person can dream.

| Zeroing is where you look through the sight at your target, shoot, find where the round struck, and make corrections to your sight until the round falls where you're aiming.
After I told them I was done with that, I got to go on and qualify. Which is where you shoot at targets and they score you. I think you have to get a minimum of 24 out of 40. The first time I went up there I got a 22, and that's even after I had two major malfunctions with my weapon, both of which required my taking apart the M-4 to correct. I'm not gonna lie, when I was able to shoot, I was on it. I was knocking down the 300m target no problem, but for the life of me, I couldn't seem to hit the 150.
Now, the second time I tried it, it seemed only fair, I put the left over rounds, about fifteen, into my mags, so I went in there with a 25, and two 15s, instead of two 10s and a 20. Start the pop up targets, my old squad leader hands me a mag and says it's my 20(25) round-er. I asked him if he was sure, he said he was. It was one of my 10(15)-rounders. Going black on ammo in the middle of a table can seriously mess up your score, I lost about three targets there, still not hitting that 150 either, everything else was going pretty good. Well, I'd made up my mind that that round had cost me my qualification that iteration. So, I contented my self with the fact that I would hit that 150 and it would go down. I probably shot an extra 10 rounds at it at least went black on ammo again, as well as shot the other targets when they popped up, and it didn't go down. Turns out I got 26 out of 40 anyway, and even though it wasn't a good score, it was good enough. Also it has now been verified that the 150m target was broken and wasn't registering hits. I was content in the knowledge that if it wasn't for that and my old squad leader(thank goodness he's not in charge of me, or anything, anymore) messing me up, I probably would have shot really well. Plus it was rainy and the range wasn't designed that well in the first place, oh well.
The point is I qualified.
Now I'm going to tell you a secret. I was never really zeroed in the first place.
