I don't understand why you're stressing out--I mean you should expect this from the start for joining the military in the first place and it was your own choice according to you just for fast easy cash. Instead of stressing out, you should be RELIEVED to get deployed to Kuwait and not Iraq or Afghanistan. As for Star Craft 2, just wait for the 12 months because it's never too late to play a game because I know that you'll be alive to come back to play it, I mean have you heard of a soldier that died in Kuwait in the news? I didn't. I don't know how life is like in the barrack when you get deployed, but I assume they would allow you to use the internet in some ways, so you can always surf the net for some Star Craft 2 VODs to watch. Anyways, just don't stress out and be happy that you're going to Kuwait. I'm sure you'll learn alot of interesting things there. Lastly, watch your back, take care of yourself, and stay safe.

Bigsack that was one of the worst posts I ever read. I rarely post but this is something I need to address.

How about a simple analogy. Why become a student and endure countless hours of stress, sleep deprivation and intellectual critique from fellow students as well as professors? I mean everyone expects this from the start, but then why do i hear so many students "bitch." They should just not go through school to begin with.

Fast easy cash? You're so fucking wrong. It is one of the hardest paycheck's one will ever end up receiving, do you even know how much backbreaking training is thrown at you? And the constant small voice telling you you're fiddling with death? They leave you physically exhausted and emotionally worn out. At the end of the day you're just a number.

And you do know soldiers head to Kuwait for two weeks of training before they get deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan right? what a BIG RELIEF for him afterall. Rofl you assume he can use the internet to watch sc2 vods at Kuwait... but you simply choose not to assume anything else that might be relevant.

He's going to be fuckin going through HELL for his country and you're pretty much telling him to stfu and take it like a man because he chose that route.

You need to grow up quick and realize what you say/write might have abhorrent affects on others.



Anyway good luck, keep your eyes open, and stay alive. And I thank you for serving our country.
