But, man, maybe you're not bitter - but you are one astoundingly self-righteous person. There's calling it how it is, which you certainly do and not without merit, and then there is this petty belittling of those who choose the take a more positive outlook. Your comment about a military guy "licking balls" is incredibly juvenile and unprofessional.
