NYers watch man for 22 seconds before subway crushes him.

then you really don't know marines, do you? If you did, you'd know how non sensical your bullshit statement was....

That your fellow Infantrymen and Combat Engineers still think their air traffic controllers are pogue bitches? I at least know that much.

your lack of self esteem is showing.

lol, you're dumb enough to think you can gauge jumping off of NYC subway platforms is one thing it's quite another that you're thinking you've got some sort of inherent ability to gauge the level of my self esteem via the internet.

You should revisit your absolute claims about an entire segment of our society being stupid on top of your pogue delusions of grandeur, that way those viewing this thread can get the whole Paulbot package in one fell swoop?
 
granted, i'm assuming i'm quite close. it's possible that there's nobody close in this situation. it's also possible that nobody is willing to challenge the person that pushed him down there to begin with. I wouldn't fault anyone for those positions.

I think it more likely that nobody thought the guy that pushed him would push him. Fights happen all the time down there, most do not wind up with a guy pushed in front of a subway train. Once he was there and the train was coming so fast following it is unlikely that somebody could have saved him. Unless they were close enough to grab arms and pull him to safety. Jumping down there at that time would have been likely suicide.
 
it's ok ZJ, maybe your mommy didn't hug you enough.



That's a possibility, it's the same as saying that your mommy hugged you way to much...probably why you settled for a bitch MOS in the first place if I had to guess.

So that's a no, that you're not gonna revisit your earlier posit that New Yorkers are too stupid?

bitch MOS LOL, so now you're envious of two of my superior qualities, fearlessness and intelligence. must suck to be you. and I did revisit that statement, if you'd only follow the entire thread.

Thisis what's relevant, unless any of us were down there when it happened as well as during the scuffle the crowd was more than likely pushed back away from the platform and knowing that an incoming train was coming that same said crowd knew better than to jump down there in an attempt to rescue Mr. Han...not some cockamamie backwoods down over yonder former ex air traffic controller in the Marines saves the day nonsense.

Nope, not envious or jealous of your female laden MOS, if anything I always laughed at the pogue, especially when they thought they were the shit so long as they weren't anywhere near their combat arms counterparts...we're delving into you becoming 50 times the women Stargazer never was at this rate.

No, no no...revisit it again, that way you'll complete what it means to post like a Paulbot...follow the flow of the discussion pogue...

I had to look it up....

Pogue is pejorative military slang for non-infantry, staff, and other rear-echelon or support units.[1] "Pogue" frequently includes those who don't have to undergo the stresses that the infantry does.

This term is thematically similar to the newer word Fobbit which refers to non-combat arms soldiers who never leave their Forward Operating Base. Fobbit is a combination of the acronym FOB and term Hobbit from Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings series. Hobbits never leave the Shire, while Fobbits never leave the FOB. However, the terms are not synonymous because a functionary at the Pentagon might be termed a pogue or REMF (Rear Echelon Mother-Fucker) but could never be termed a Fobbit.
[edit]History and etymology

It has been used in the United States Navy and Marine Corps since before World War II, entering Army usage around the time of the Vietnam War.[2]In the Canadian Forces a POG is referred to as a WOG, short for "without guns" or "without guts".

Originally, the term was a sexual insult in early twentieth century gay culture, as "pogue" was slang for a young male who submitted to sexual advances.[3] This led to the related term "pogey bait", meaning candy or sweets.

Due to having lost contact with its linguistic source, the modern military vernacular has turned "pogue" into a retronym/backronym. "Pogue" is now sometimes incorrectly described as the pronunciation of the acronym POG, or Person Other than Grunt, or Posted On Garrison.[2] It is also sometimes retronymed out to "Person On Ground with Unused Equipment" (hence the spelling). Sometimes used as People Of Good Use Elsewhere.
[edit]

Funny and interesting history.
 
damn stupid, actually. ZJ's use of it clearly shows his jealousy of others, since he couldn't hack it in any MOS that required intelligence, relegating him to the ranks of infantry. every marines basic MOS is rifleman, but he's only army, so his jealousy doubles.

id est, an air traffic controller in the Marine Corps...

I'm not gonna knock this fella for serving his country, my hat's off to him for doing his part...but - being an air traffic controller in the Marines isn't a prerequisite for manliness (it's certainly nothing to gauge against SHORADS or Infrantry MOS's with regards to what's more stout "X's" the man wise), it's just not...not if an average eighteen year old girl in mediocre shape can do it it's not. Which would be a disqualifier amongst a group of citizens who may or may not be able to jump down off of train platforms to rescue a wayward victim of a scuffle who'd been pushed off that same platform and onto the tracks.

I wonder if this fella has got something better than this since he'd used a broad brush to label an entire segment of our society as stupid - I suspect he's a Paulbot, which funny because there're a lot of Paulbots who're dumber than dogshit...
 
only morons use 'paulbot'. notice I didn't say liberal morons, since there are morons both left and right. It's actually one of the very few times that both the left and the right will team up, to attack vilify Libertarians. it's quite telling that they're afraid of our values.

Your standard reply to being bested is to beat your chest and proclaim victory due to your superiority....LMAO Zombie has made a rational argument against your bravado. Suck it up.

You'd be right with this assessment, you've seen the best he has on offer.
 
Neat, the first poster (the OP) is butt hurt enough about the last election that he's/she's tossing Obama's name into the ring as if it's relevant (does that mean Romney's name should get tossed around every time a fundamentalist Mormon molests a teenaged girl?) and the second poster is gonna go with people in large urban areas are stupid.

Rural god fearing teabaggers bagging on city folk?

I rebuke you Satan
 
I carefully chose a Pogue position when I joined. I didn't want to have to shoot at anybody... rarely would a Russian Translator take up a weapon in a war.

:D
