I had a buddy back in the day that went on and on about how everything he did was better than anything. Long story--we don't talk anymore.

The fun, stupid stories are way more entertaining to talk about. Never liked playing the who has the bigger dick game. It's too cold for that now.

 

On the other end of the "talk about it" spectrum is aviators. There's nothing we love to do more than talk about the **** we get to do in the plane. My best day ever was during the second week of OIF. I'm not going to write the whole thing out lest I end up on some terrorist hit-list, but I'll talk your ear off about it If you ask.

Although this is a bunch of Air Force warthog ****, the HUD video at 1:40 sums it all up no matter what you fly:

 

As an Ex Air Force fighter maintainer, I approve this message.

 

rofl, some of those things said are things no Air Force says. I love pilots, they are the only non ******* officers on the flightline.

 

Vulcan cannon and bitching betty screaming the Altitude warning at 2000ft?!?!?

 

hehehehe...

As a current radio op that's flying frequently now... pilots are the bees knees man. People can hate on them all they want, they still buy my alcohol without a 2nd thought.

 

Minute to live, baby!

True story, had a friend shoot himself down while flying the gun pattern too low.

 

I guess I'm a chopper guy at heart. Used to flying at <30ft NOE for cover.
