Immortal Goat is probably a spambot
Old Dec 22nd, 2009, 09:33 PM        You've all seen "that guy" in the Basic Training movies, right?
"That guy" being the guy that gets either the Dear John letter or cheated on while he is away at basic training. The eternal stereotype, the ever-present cliche' of the soldier talking about how great she is, how they're going to get married, and how she's the one for him, the love of his life. Then, he receives a letter saying the one phrase every man in a relationship dreads to hear: "I think we should just be friends". Every Army movie has one person that this happens to. It's come to a point in cinema that it's basically become a joke.

It isn't. It happens all the time. And during my time in Basic, I was "that guy". Not only did I get that "friends" letter, I got it the same day I got the letter from her saying "happy birthday"...

Fuck bitches.
