This is a lot of propaganda and lies.PrimordialMeme

Excellent way to back up your argument!

Some people have no interest in "joining the service" and don't support the milatary, signing up is the last thing a lot of people would rather do. I'm in school full time, i'm in it because i enjoy it and have (some) idea what i want to do, however it makes no sense to suggest that everyone should go to college simply because they are out of highschool. If you don't want to be in univeristy, you won't succeed there. You aren't going to do well just because people tell you that is where you should be.

This kid living at home without a job, it really doesn't effect you, who are you to tell him how to run his life?

College isn't for everyone, neither is the military. People have to grow up and make decisions on their own, that's the beauty of life.

It's okay to not support the government. But to not support the military? If that's your view, move out the country. 'Nuff said on that.

As for people living at home until obscene ages, they need to pay their parents money. We're all in debt to our parents for even being here in the first place, it's not right to exploit their obligations.

As for not going to college or joining the service, you find me ONE person that has done neither in the age group of 35+ that doesn't regret it. I'll garuntee you won't find a single one.

I'm all about non-mainstream living, part of the reason I joined the service. There's only one chance to go to school for the experience, and that's between the age groups of 18-25. After that, you missed your window. Same's true for the service.

I'm prior service military and was the first of my friends to move out. A few years have passed, I'm back home with mommy and daddy which sucks, not making enough money so I'm enlisting again. Anyways I have this friend who is about to be 22 years old. He hasn't worked anything except a summer job since he was 17. He hasn't went to school or anything. All he does is sit around, watch bad TV shows, and goes to the gym and works out. He wants to be a body builder. He doesn't go out anywhere, doesn't wanna go anywhere, a huge homebody. Anyways, I made a blog on my myspace about why I was enlisting in the military again and how I believe anyone who is out of HS and not in college should be working full-time.

Anyways I'm just wondering, how old do you think someone needs to be before they pop their mommas you know what outta their mouth and grow up?

I'm in the military right now, so probably not the best judge of advice. However, I'll drop my 2 cents. If you're out of High School for over a year, not in college, and working a dead-end job you need to change something. Either go to college through loans, or join the service. If he wants to be a body builder, why doesn't he look into special ops for the Air Force? We're offering pretty decent sign on bonuses for Pararescuemen, SERE, and Combat Controllers.

*edited*: and for all of you who are saying "Who are you to tell someone how to live?" You'll realize it when you're older. It's his friend, and he doesn't want his friend to live a crap life, which is exactly where he's headed. I HATE society as much as the next person, I hate how we HAVE to go to school, get a nice career, have a wife, etc etc, but that's life. It's how it is. He will NOT be happy flipping bugers and living with mom for the rest of his life, neither will any of you.

Well gargle my ass cheeks, Batman. We can't have that happen now can we?:o

How does one gargle ass cheeks? Is that Batman's power?

Nothing can ever beat this...

That is quite possibly the most disturbing thing I've seen in my entire life. I'm going to lose sleep over this.
