Provided said user has a great ass, I do not see the problem.
Yoga pants, the bacon of clothing.
Are you kidding? That (lifting up) is one of the best possible things! Especially if it's "all muscle" and no flab/cellulite! A decent game of "grab a$$" is like comfort food. I'll take that 24 x 7!
When you look at his service, it becomes very clear that while he did do some Frontline stuff before World War II when he was a younger officer, he did not have a lot in the way of anything combat oriented… his specialty was probably logistics and combat doctrine.
And that is why I still have a "player" for all those different kinds of content... especially a "direct drive" turntable. I don't have much in the way of "classic cassette" or "8-Track" original content (my father had a lot of 8-track), but I have a decent bit of vinyl, including some MFSL Original Master Recordings. I even had an original "PlayTape" Mini cassette player (although it didn't look like this)
These days, I have a shit-ton of Audio CDs and DVDs (and now Blu-Ray). I guard those religiously.. And I maintain players for each form of content. I even have one of the original Sony "Discman®" mini players. And, believe it or not, I still have an old Sony "Betamax®" VCR as well as VHS players.
I had made the decision long ago that buying content in those forms is how I'd preserve my ownership of it "in perpetuity." I never did subscriptions or "streaming services" or beyond that, as I knew they'd try to enforce DRM and the content might "disappear" at some point. And I was proven correct several times. Consider the Discovery TV series "Sons of Guns." A fantastic show about guns, if it weren't for the a$$hole that starred in the thing and owned the shop. The moment Will Hayden got "busted" for those sex crimes, they yeeted that show off their streaming servers, pronto! If I had paid to subscribe to that show on those servers (which I hadn't BTW), I'd have been SOL! Similarly, for those who subscribed to it (I DID NOT!!!!
), the "Honey Boo Boo" series. They yanked that series quickly, once it was determined that "Momma June" was sleeping with a child molester, or whatever.By purchasing the "hard copy" DVD or Blu-Ray, that could never be taken away. It's also why I never went in for whatever that "purple" digital streaming thing was that came along with DVDs because I knew it was all about DRM. I had to be able to download a physical digital copy in order to preserve it. If I couldn't, I wasn't going to buy/download it. Now, if I find something I like that's "digital," I may download it (via purchase if I can), but I'll also try to find the hard copy CD/DVD or whatever, in order to have it as a "back up." They can't ever say, "I didn't buy the content."
I'm no "Napster."

It starts with "I despise the . . . and believe I will have this feeling for the rest of my life." and continues from there.
I am not going to post the pages here, but I will invite you to come and read it. It is posted on The Shop (woodworking shop) wall right beside the front door. I find it interesting to watch those that will stand and read it there.
It is also posted behind the restroom door in The Toy Box (military collection) - for those that want to read it in a private setting.
Both are "original signature" documents, framed under glass, and securely screwed to the walls.
I sent copies to a Major General, a couple of Command Sergeants Major, and a bunch of folks in between. I received an acknowledgement from only one individual. I suppose I could say acknowledgement from two, if I was going to count the phone call (message on my answering machine) from the Judge Advocate General. I did not respond to the message, but I still have the audio recording.
Somehow, this sounds like a complaint...
Depends on the ass.
Well, as long as they can't affect your DD214 or VA status (in re: Health/Medical Stuff), Fair enough.

I used to plug my wireless mouse receiver into my team leaders laptop when he was away from his desk. When he came back I would peek over the divider and close whatever program he was working on, it took 3 calls to tech support and an escalated help desk ticket to catch me.

I only buy music on CD's. The sound is not quite as "pure" as vinyl, but they do not degrade like vinyl does when you play them. Most new music is probably recorded digitally, but I haven't bought anything recorded in the last 30 years. I've ripped all of my music to MP3 to play in the car and share with the family. My CD's are in a locked cabinet and only I touch them. I have an old higher end CD player, and I believe the sound quality is better than MP3's. There is compression etc involved in ripping MP3's. Only I touch my CD's.
Vinyl has become "cool", but I have to laugh at the new USB turntables. Most of the music I like was recorded in analog, and vinyl purists are looking for the warmer analog sound. Immediately running the sound into an A-D conversion is just not pure. Some albums from the 80's were recorded, mastered, or remastered digitally, and putting them on vinyl seems stupid.
I'm not that much of an audiophile and accept the sound of CD's. MP3's are OK for the car and providing background sound in the house. When I really want to listen to music, I go to my CD's.
No, it is not. Broken hammer hinge pin. But it’s on a cheap old Spanish no name copy I inherited. I never fired it because the action wasn’t right. Glad I didn’t. This revolver looks like it was made in a dirt floor shop in Spain back when cheap copies were flooding the country.
Look closely at the horrific machining. Fine crapsmanship right there.
Fixable, but the lack of a S&W roll stamp on the frame indicates it's most likely a cheap Spanish knockoff that surely has other issues so it isn't worth the effort.
E.T.A.... @lash beat me to the draw by that much..

Neither do I buy on vinyl, unless it's a legacy piece (curio/relic) that I cannot get otherwise. A recent example of that would be the original Herbert Von Karajan's full cover of Ricard Strauss's "Also Sprach Zarathustra." It's the full 40 minute ver. (London Records), the opening of which was the one actually featured in the Kubrick 2001 movie. Not available on CD to my knowledge.
I don't have the locked cabinets for CDs, but I get it. I do some ripping but only to have it on my desktop to listen. Still, I keep the CD as backup. It helps a little as it cuts down on wear & tear on the CDs themselves, especially for things that are no longer replaceable.
A good example of that would be Michael Jackson's "BAD" album. That was a full DDD Digital recording. And it sounded kinda weird (too "electronic") when compared to the BAD video. Funny, now they have YouTube videos where the "reactors" are reacting to "mashup" versions of Bad vs. Weird Al Yankovic's "FAT."
I haven't listened to my Vinyl in a long time. I'm just saying, I have the turntable if I ever wanted to.
I'd take the knock off over the original in this case.
