What is Albi more ignorant of?

[OzzyKP]

Tacky thread.

[The Mad Monk]

Like the one you made about me?

...and you haven't even posted in it, how rude!

Unfortunately, there are only a limited number of responses you can have in a poll here, so the true extent of his complete ignorance can not really be measured.

ooh. sick burn.

Great news everyone! Marines to get ballistic knickers:

But the Marines in Afghanistan will soon, one would hope very soon, be marching more safely — in their new ballistic underwear, designed to better protect them from injuries from improvised explosive devices.

The Pentagon this month put out a rush order solicitation, spotted by our colleague Walter Pincus, for “27,500 ballistic undergarments” for $2 million, noting that “ballistic underwear is currently being used by British forces” in Afghanistan “and they have significantly less injuries” to their privates as a result.

“Based on analysis in theater,” the solicitation notice says, such underwear will drastically improve casualty recovery and reduce secondary infections.”

This is especially important in such places as Helmand province, where patrols in agricultural areas must be done on foot on narrow, often mined, paths along irrigation canals and such.

The double -weave silk underwear, which looks pretty much like bicycle shorts, is not bulletproof. But it will block out smaller particles or “blast fragments” and thus lessen damage in the groin area and to the femoral artery.

In addition, the undies have an antibacterial treatment that should reduce the risk of infection. The Marines say no source except the British supplier “provides a battlefield tested undergarment,” though “we expect more sources to enter the marketplace” in the future.

Lots of marines pose in gay porn (amateur ones) with Marine-issue underwear and uniforms. Actually more of them than Navy or Air Force personnel.

Just throwing that out there.

[MrFun]

You throw a lot out here in this place.

[Theben]

Damn you to hell! Blissfully forgotten until I read your post.

I intend to spread the pain.

I that song.

[Theben]

And no one's posted yet about how Funsie spelled "ignroant" in the poll. You folks are slipping.

[MrFun]

Hey! That was not my typo - a mod did that as some kind of joke.

[MikeH]

Our jokes are funny.

[MrFun]

Our jokes are funny.

Since when?

Change YOUR typo back, the way I had it.

[MrFun]

We need to teach Albi how to google or bing.

[The Mad Monk]

When did Bing become worthy of verb status?

[MikeH]

They should have called it Chandler.

[MrFun]

When did Bing become worthy of verb status?

I started using bing as a verb. I prefer binging rather than googling these days.
