LOL I don’t think this hiatus thing is working out jk Surprisingly I’m almost done with all my projects. I have one more but it’s easy. The Great Gatsby one is almost done and imo it’s probably the best project I have ever done in my whole life. I drew EVERYTHING on my poster ridiculous i know but I bet everyone is going to effortlessly use shitty computer graphics when they are no supposed to. I think I MIGHT take of picture of it to show it off to y’all. For my music project I’m having a hard time choosing between Tame Impala or Grizzly Bear because both are my favorite bands. stress induced sobs
I’m writing this to calm my nerves because I have to present 2 projects on Monday. The first project is about how my favorite song correlates with my emotions/life and it has to have psychological analysis and stuff. Second I have to do a presentation on The Great Gatsby. I’m cool about it because I read the book like 2 times but I’m nervous because today some kids presented and my teacher was pressing the questions HARD. I mean I have a 95 percent at English (no bragging at all) but you know that can be a 100 lol I have to super analyze The Great Gatsby and stuff. I’m doing that right now and I understand to novel in a bigger extent now yay for research.
I’m gonna hiatus for the rest of the month of May. I’ll be back in June. I will not post anything on this blog and my second blog because I have a shitload of projects and late work to do and I want to pass all the classes that I’m not going to summer school for. See you guys later *farts away to the distance*
I deleted this because of anon hate, but you know what? I dont care.
This is my boyfriend. Hes a Marine heading to Afghanistan.
Sometimes hes my reason for sanity.
Sometimes hes the reason for my insanity.
And im immensely proud of how happy we look (even if the sun is blinding us) because the past few months, with him going through predeployment training a million states away, and me going through my daily stressors and mental/physical health concerns, have been so difficult and we’ve stuck through it together despite all odds.you didn’t earn that cover,TAKE IT OFF.
Okay, I was going to ignore this, but it seriously bothered me so let me make a couple points:
Hi, if you would have taken the time to read the little thing I added with the photo, you would have learned that I previously posted this but had to delete it because I got a lot of hate. That said, don’t you think its incredibly rude to reblog my photo and add hate onto it, or tell me what to do?
Which brings me to point two: You do not know me and I do not know you. You do not know my relationship with my Marine, and likewise, I don’t know your relationship with yours.
Your Marine may feel its completely wrong for a significant other or non-Marine to wear any article of uniform, hey, that’s fine, I understand that completely. The thing is, I wasn’t impersonating a Marine or trying to portray myself as the same rank/status as my significant other, I was just having fun. I put the cover on for a split second to take a few photos. Then I took it off.Point three is really for any MILSOs following me: Don’t be this girl. Don’t be the woman that is so bitter about everything and so stuck up and up tight that she has her husband’s EGA lodged so far up her anus she cannot seem to function. Don’t rain on other people’s parades. You don’t know their story or their situation or the relationship they share. Don’t be rude. My Marine and I are happy. This photo shows it. When other people are so bold as to reblog it and tell me to take his cover (that’s his hat, for all you non-military followers) off, it’s not only taking away MY happiness, it’s making you look like a complete idiot.
Newsflash, You’re completely right, I am not a Marine! I didn’t earn a cover, or an EGA!! But guess what sister, neither did you, so stop acting like you’re the MILSO Police and lighten up. It’s a photo on the internet of a couple you’ve never met. My gut instinct tells me you wouldn’t tell a girl at the birthday ball to take off a Marine’s cover for a photo op, so why are you telling me? (And hey, if you actually would, you have balls, congrats, but still see above where: YOU AREN’T THE MILSO POLICE.)
In conclusion: This photo is for fun. My relationship is fun. You don’t know me. Stop being pretentious.
Lolololol your “Marine.”
“My Marine,” is my husband. I do not call him “my Marine.”
That is the huge difference between you and I, I do not reference him to being my “Marine,” or hero or any other reference. He is my husband. I do not have my husbands EGA “stuck up my ass,” because I respect him that he chose to go through 3 months of hell to earn his title. He is extremely proud of himself and what he has gone there, I am no way shape or form taking that title away from him using his cover, or anything else, to “look cute” in a photo.
Whenever I see couples wearing their SO’s uniform, I can’t help but laugh. It is so disrespectful. I am definitely not alone on this one. I am not the MilSo police, I do not go looking for these photos. I follow a couple military SO’s directed blogs and occasionally I see photos such as this. I cannot even fathom how some one thinks this is cute.
Knowing someones relationship or story does not retrain to any of this. That does not count as a “excuse” for such a disrespectful photo.
The guts to tell someone to take the cover off? Lololol. I wouldn’t have to tell that person because someone else would.
Its not cute, its not adorable, its not fun. Its pathetic and extremely disrespectful.
You took this photo off for hate, and put it back on. Expect to get hate, it is the internet. You are basically asking for it.
I dont have the time or energy to fight you on this because ive made myself clear in the previous reblog, and i feel everything ive said still stands, so ill say this and then walk away: Im agreeing to disagree with you. Have a great life, please refrain from reblogging anything else I have to post or say.
Have a good life with your “Marine.”
Okay bitch now you fucking asked for it.
Why the quotation marks? Do you doubt his dedication to his country because he allows me to wear his cover for a photo? Hes just as good as your husband. Show some fucking respect. Have fun with your “life.”Lolol oops
have fun with “your Marine”
This is probably the most ridiculous “argument” I’ve ever come across. WHAT THE FUCK IS THE PROBLEM WITH HER WEARING HIS MARINE HAT? HOLY FUCK. For the love of Satan give me a GOOD reason why this is wrong or how it’s disrespectful? Obviously her husband seems to be completely okay with it so why you care so much about this is mind boggling.
A person goes through 3 months of the hardest basic military training in America, a person goes through 3 phases. Please educate yourself here & here here as well. That is not all what boot camp consists on, google some more if you would like to know more.
A recruit goes through 12 weeks of boot camp to earn his title of a Marine and to earn his EGA, eagle globe anchor. The title of Marine is NEVER given, it is always earned has been that way since 1775.
Wearing her BOYFREIND’s COVER is extremely disrespectful because she didn’t earn that one bit.
It is called a COVER.
Did she say “Fuck yeahh I’m a marine too biiiiitch!”? No. Therefore she does not claim to be one. Clearly her husband is not offended in any way shape or form. I for one do think this is a cute photo and I do have respect for them military as well. This is just not neccessary to argue over ya know? Now everyone hug it out! :D
its a hat yo
The argument on both sides is a headache. I am former military, I am also a military child. Grew up around this stuff. There are occasion where, yes your family and SO can wear parts of the uniform.
These points are:
Leaving
Returning Home
Or
You have a little one that wants to play dress up or wear Mommy’s or Daddy’s “hat”.
The girl stated that he was leaving soon. The photo itself could be when he returned or is about to go on deployment or another. Given the flowers, I say ether or. This has became acceptable, even more so if they put it on their SO.

Warning, do not read around anything both extremely valuable and breakable.It’s amazing how these people recycle every stupid argument over and over and over whenever someone non-white pops up… anywhere.
It’s also hilarious how some people in the comments are using some of the very same points discussed in the article to defend their right to whine about Michael B Jordan’s possible casting. Way to miss the point, guys.
I’m not at all surprised. I didn’t read the comments for a reason. I always love when cracked does do articles like this because you know that a good 50% of the people who read their site ARE the kind of people they’re talking about in these articles.
the last line of the article. BOOM.
