Pronouncing kkkrakkka correctly is the highest form of leftism
if you do it correctly it sounds like the Predator's chatter
Oh, so I've been doing it right all these years
In your face DSA
Imagine illegally invading a country with overwhelming force and air superiority and then dying anyway. Skill issue, lmao owned.
I would've simply chosen not to join the all-volunteer illegal invasion force
There's a pretty decent chance they were killed out-of-combat in some kind of accident due to poor treatment of soldiers and lax safety regs. Which is funnier.
Prob melted their lungs from the smoldering tire pits.
it depends. if his uncle was an american, british, or australian troop, then no, of course not.
but if he was iraqi, then probably you're the asshole, yes.
Username checks out πΏ
my brain gives me a hit of pure dopamine anytime someone says "context matters" ngl
Context does indeed matter <3
gosh darnit, being hornyonmain matters, too!
YTA you should have been more forward. Out of respect (for the Iraqis) I would suggest something like βoh coolβ or βthe earth is healingβ
"RIP Bozo" also up there
If your invasion becomes so comfortable that you have a Burger King on base, you have no reason to die. That is purely 100% a skill issue. I personally would NOT have died and WOULD have fought my way out of that situation by killing everyone with karate chops.
Yeah, but what if they had Iraqi Oddjob running around karate chopping everyone's shins?
You ever think of that?
Do you not think I have extensively prepared for that exact scenario? I've watched Kill Bill so many times. I know how to have a dramatic fight with a karate master. I would use the secret move against him.
AITA
silence, redditor
Death to America
NTA your mouth your rules
tell him I also said womp womp
I mean yes, but there is such thing as being an asshole while still not being a bad person. Ya gotta be an asshole to some people sometimes.
If you dont like them fuck them who cares i hope his uncle dies again
If you do like them or want to consider a friendship maybe dont do that
"i hope his uncle dies again"
we should be using Juche Necromancy to make each soldier die once for every civilian who's death they had a hand in
My Godfather died in 9/11, but he was a finance hog so it didn't bother me in the slightest
It's what he deserved for getting me a Dilbert business book instead of an actual birthday present
unless his uncle served in Fedayeen Saddam, you're not the asshole
At first I was like "Eh well if someone he cared about died you probably should not be clowning like that", but given that he lied to try and shame you like an idiot, I'd say you rekt him correctly
NTA, they shouldn't have humble bragged how hard he got owned. Ok, we get it, you got a medal for dying good π
You might be perceived as an asshole but those same people probably view that uncle as a hero who died doing the right thing. They are of course wrong on both counts
one of my friends sent me a text about ten minutes ago saying that the guy only has one uncle who's never served in the military or even stepped foot in iraq so like i dont think i have to worry about that now
Lmao was he trying to use a fake troop uncle to shame you? I hope the rest of his made up soldier uncle's get
NTA personally I would have gone for "play stupid games, win stupid prizes" for a more personal touch but "womp womp" is a perfectly appropriate way of showing your approval.
If he was purely expressing emotional vulnerability about the loss of his uncle in an otherwise nonadversarial conversation, probably.
If the context included anything about war, politics, military, or even just anything other than his mourning the loss of a family member, heck no.
π
YTA
womp womp is a wheadonism
NTA do it again
probably an asshole but that's extremely funny as hell
based
nope, the uncle getting killed was the best outcome of the uncle going there
Depends. If he is an Iraqi, then yes. If he is a colonizer trying to destroy Iraq, then also yes, because you only womped twice instead of the requisite three times.
No, all American invaders of Iraq deserve immediate execution
thats funny as fuck
Seeing as how it turned out, I trust your judgement
:took-no-restraint:
lol lmao

In the social context you said it in? Probably.
In the context of what people on this site would want you to say? NTA.
It's sort of the meme. You're "correct" but in order to understand that, you more or less need to be terminally online (how does commas work in English?).
People in your social circle will perceive you as an asshole, despite understanding your reasoning.
