You did it by yourself, and what's worse is that you did it on the back of those heroes who truly earned it. You just pissed away whatever amount of personal integrity and honor you might have had... and I use the phrase 'might have had' very loosely when I'm talking about your conduct."

    she cried, and she effing deserves it.

    Well done. Bravo. You should have started clapping.

    I do feel, however, that there are certain (less serious) situations that call for public humiliation.
    OTOH if this is a stolen valor issue then by all means make it public.

    Now I understand better why they called her out in public, she's claiming things she didn't earn, and how stupid do you have to be to try to pull that off in front of people who KNOW you didn't earn those medals.

I had to train the wife's family also, wouldn't eat with them till they learned. It is just one pet peeve that pisses me the hell off, I know it's slightly irrational, but, I don't give a shit.
    Chewing with your mouth open is a biiiig pet peeve of mine as well. I'm probably more polite or tolerant about it than you, but sometimes I just have to say something.

    It's especially annoying when you say something (usually politely) and they got obnoxious about it.

    You hit any trails Robert?
    What year is your Taco?

    I'm just starting out, I practiced a little last year with my F250 SuperCab, and I've done some short things that were fun. I have zero interest in rock crawling, I'm way more interested in getting to more difficult hiking areas.

    I usually start the conversation with, "Oh, You're one of THOSE! " and follow up with a "I bet you're a mouth breather too..."

    I'm sure we've all done projects at work where someone else took credit and got the raise/bonus. So stolen valor and the like REALLY PISSES ME OFF!
