I am joining the Marine Core, is it wrong i want to serve my country in war?

Question

Hmmm, call me a dumbas*... But im going to join after i finish my senior year which starts in 10 more days. I have hopes that i will be able to meet my goals by then to run 3 miles nonstop. And hell i can barely run 10 minutes now. I quit chew tobacco ,cigarettes, alcohol, marijuana, DXM and Shrooms and quite a lot of painkillers. After doing them for YEARS and years and using EXTREMELY heavily i must say (except for DXM, and shrooms, i did those about 7-10 times each, and i chewed tobacco 6 months). Everything else i had been doin about 6-7 years. So i quit these things cold turkey all in ONE day. In the same day, i cut out ALL sugar pops, and stopped drinking coffee which was apart of my life since i can remember. I use to drink like 10 sodas a day OR MORE for a long as* time. With NO help, but myself. And i also survived withdrawls with no help from anybody else. I believe having accomplished that, i can accomplish my next step, the Marine core. Do you guys believe so?

Answer 1

Well, unless you're doing a new type of Pilates, you need to know it's "Corp" not "Core" in reference to the Marines. It is pronounced "core", though, so it's an understandable mistake.

I don't know I'd be bragging about the drugs too much, and if you want to get in, you need to leave it all alone. They make you drug test, and that stuff doesn't pass out of the body all that quickly.

I think if you want it badly enough, you can accomplish your goals. If it's what you want, I think it's an honorable path to take in your life.

What really matters is whether or not YOU want it. Don't put too much stock in the opinions of anyone else. It's your life and your decision. If you want it, go for it.

Answer 2

Better give yourself some time to pass a drug test!! Here's a good one for you:

Two Arabs boarded a flight out of London . One took a window seat and the other sat next to him in the middle seat.

Just before takeoff, a Marine sat down in the aisle seat.

After takeoff, the Marine kicked his shoes off, wiggled his toes and was settling in when the Arab in the window seat said, "I need to get up and get a coke."

"Don't get up," said the Marine, "I'm in the aisle seat, I'll get it for you."

As soon as he left, one of the Arabs picked up the Marines shoe and spat in it.

When the Marine returned with the coke, the other Arab said, "That looks good, I'd really like one, too."

Again, the Marine obligingly went to fetch it.

While he was gone the other Arab picked up the Marines other shoe and spat in it.

When the Marine returned, they all sat back and enjoyed the flight. As the plane was landing, the Marine slipped his feet into his shoes and knew immediately what had happened.

"Why does it have to be this way?" he asked. "How long must this go on?
This fighting between our nations? This hatred? This animosity? This spitting in shoes and peeing in cokes?"
THE MARINES WILL ALWAYS WIN
