Did u get your feelings hurt little guy? Ahhh

revcyanide · 08-27-2011, 12:20 AM

I know people who have died defending this country in the air force, I know people in harms way right now.

So take your stupid crap somewhere else, Every branch does their part and does it well.

Sideways570sx · 08-27-2011, 12:24 AM

As do i there kid, and i continue to serve my country. So relax, stop being an internet tough guy. Cuz you clearly havnt been in the military, branches fuck with other branches all the time. Nobody said anything bad about people dieing and blah blah i hear and see it alot just like any other servicemember, shit happens, get over it nancy. Nobody was pointing anyone out. Just a joke.

revcyanide · 08-27-2011, 12:27 AM

Actually i am military, air force.

It was irrelevant to the thread completly, and I'll joke around like that with my freinds, and people I know.

I do not joke that way with people I do not know. Because I have no idea what their experiance has been like, and i have complete and utter respect for every other branch of military.

99% of the time i see that chairforce shit from civillians who have never been a part of any branch.

Sideways570sx · 08-27-2011, 12:56 AM

and guess what, 99 percent of the time, when people get butt hurt about a joke that REAL service-members play around with, those people are civilians....so i guess we are both shit outta luck huh?

Biggamehit · 08-27-2011, 04:26 AM

hahahah it's all good. not here to brag about my military/combat experience, everyone's experience is different with in each branch. I like doing Joint missions as you get to share alot of things and bust myth.... funniest one I heard this past deployment was......" A yo can I have one of your Air Force MRE's i heard they are better"

Bigalow311 · 08-29-2011, 03:23 PM

I don't get it.

Lately, I've been encountering a lot of Australian companies, services, etc. So much so, that I plan on visiting Australia in the future.

For shits and giggles I google'd our USD vs their AUD. It turns out that our USD is just slightly stronger (source: google, IRS, and Oanda). I also checked their AUD vs JPY. They have a rate of about .80 to the JYP. We have a .75 to their JPY. WTF?

If our USD is slightly stronger than the AUD, then can't we buy AUD and convert to JYP? Seems to be a good route to get more JPY.

**EDIT**
I was playing around converting a combination of USD, AUD, JPY but look likes it's only good to convert to AUD for anything under $1000USD. For anything above that it's best to covert straight USD to JPY as you get a better rate... weird.

Its farther from the states, bud. I'll probably swim there from Honshu.

superbike81 · 08-30-2011, 12:10 PM

We're getting 75.45 today at the local exchange shops.

I miss 125.

I lucked my way from an emergency row middle seat into first class on my last flight back to japan.

LoneStarSilvia · 09-03-2011, 02:45 AM

My asshole has been getting reamed so hard from gas prices here. The bases only serve this shit-tastic 87 octance that's at $3.67 a gallon right now, which is "cheap" compared to the $3.97 those AAFES fags were charging a couple weeks ago.

Right now I'm having to mix on base 87 and off base 93 just to save somewhat, but when it comes to filling up the FD, I weep a little.

Right now 151Y per liter x FD is 75.7 liters = 11430.7Y = $148.80 = bleeding asshole.

It's sad that we have to take our Evo the be economical, but it's looking like we're going to sell it one day soon and buy of these econo-boxes.

superbike81 · 09-03-2011, 05:30 PM

I thought base gas on Okinawa was 86 octane?

I just put in about 3000 yen worth of hioku from Esso Express and the rest on base. But then again my car isn't tuned and only requires 87.

Man, i used to love Jambalaya. Couple exercises, I'd hunt the boxes for those things. Ofcourse, one isnt gonna fill you up, so you eat 2 or 3 of them. Then i read the damn nutritional info on the back...I nearly had a heart-attack...literally!!! Each one had 65% cholesterol, sodium, and saturated fat.

Man, I'm happy to get the fuck outta there just in time. What's COLA out there right now? My S14 was going thru a tank every week and I fucking lived on base. $150 a tank per week, another tank if I go driving with Mike and them, that shit would have sucked for the month.

superbike81 · 09-04-2011, 04:11 AM

With wife and a kid it was just over $1100 (E5)

Toi · 09-04-2011, 01:13 PM

Me and the wifey already have an Econobox, YRV Turbo AWD...Takes about $26 to fill from completely empty and it averages around 380km to a tank (8gals)...

Sileighty_85 · 09-15-2011, 11:16 AM

Just came back from my 3 week Vacation there in Oki.

Paid about $2,800 for me and the wifes tickets.

We did save alot of money though by staying at the mother In laws House though.

wasnt about to get raped by off base hotels, like 2 years ago

It was $1=75yen It was pretty rough until pay day finally hit

Mister.E · 09-15-2011, 11:33 AM

Holy fuck. Who did you purchase tickets through?

That's what I've been seeing as the low average prices lately If it hits below $1300 again per person I may pick up a couple tickets. Last I checked it was ~$1365.

kayak.com has been lower than all the other places I've seen.
