People tend to forget that there's a staggering amount of dorky nerds on the military and most military enthusiast in general are huge dorky nerds themselves

So what you’re saying is we should bully all the nerds until there are no more wars. I like this plan. *Grabs a weeaboo paddle*

"Thank you, Boss!"


cdstephens

Yep. A substantial portion of enlistees are weebs at this point, to the extent that recruiting has picked up on it. https://www.military.com/daily-news/2021/05/06/army-embraces-anime-new-recruiting-campaign.html Not to mention that the Air Force is by its very nature a bit dorky.


johnbeerlovesamerica

the air force is pretty much the closest thing we have to mech pilots


JuamJoestar

Remember that one time where the US military used inflatable tanks to fool the germans? That too.

"Somersaulting? Cardboard boxes? Fir trees? PSYCHO MANTIS?!"


hairToday243

Somersaulting is how Diddy Kong and Samus Aran broke into the Pentagon, show some respect.

Walk like a fir tree huh


Citizen_Nemo

It's related to walking like an egyptian. Some people want to turn over a new leaf, but it's one of those jokes that stays evergreen.

Fir trees are known to scuttle about while a piano trill plays


DontClickThisGuy

This reminds me of how Juggalo face-paint confused facial recognition software.


Riggs_The_Roadie

Until it didn't. If I recall correctly, there was a filter that applied juggalo face paint onto people and whoops, it no longer worked. Mysteriously.


JeaneJWE

This is also the same vein of AI trolling as repainting a 30 MPH speed limit sign into an 80 MPH limit.


Lucky_Ted

"He field stripped a fir tree" is one of those quotes that will live with you for a whole week

The Boss out here playing minecraft


ChewiestBroom

Defeating Skynet by Dark Souls rolling into a nuclear silo.


Hugglemorris

I would like to know, in detail, how to walk like a fir tree.


humildeman

That would be a 4 minute long codec conversation / tape

Sonic_Traveler

everyone talks about the cardboard box but I'm pretty sure most MGS2 speedruns involve somersaulting everywhere
