- atdigg, on 10/10/2007, -7/+98Promoting American culture oversees, great!
- Biks, on 10/20/2007, -5/+79LOL! Tarantino couldn't have written it any better!
- resplence, on 10/10/2007, -4/+64If this was a war movie it's certain that that guy would be killed.
Also, is Gonzo retarded? - Msoltanian, on 10/10/2007, -9/+68That guy is a virgin, too much porn.
- TheScogg, on 10/20/2007, -11/+67To the ***** complaining about how their tax money "went to this" and the brilliant genius who came to the conclusion that this video is the reason "the world hates us", would you please use some part of your brain? The guy in this video is one guy who, instead of getting himself into bad situations, is entertaining himself in this god forsaken burnt sandhole, by hilariously making his colleague uncomfortable. Pretty funny how you think making snide comments on a website is an awesome display of productivity, but making buddies you can joke with in the middle of a war is not...
And by the way mexretroshore...how in the hell is this the least bit racist? Because the butt of the joking is not from the United States??? Sounds like you're the racist here. - Sc0rian, on 10/10/2007, -2/+46his mum must be proud
- inactive, on 10/20/2007, -1/+37These are SOLDIERS you guys are talking about. Soldier's have talked about this kind of crap for years, it's what happens when you stick a ton of 20 something year old dudes together thousands of miles away from home. The only difference is now is that they can upload ***** to youtube and you can see it in your office. Big deal.
- theblooms, on 10/10/2007, -4/+38“The Marines I have seen around the world have the cleanest bodies, the filthiest minds, the highest morale, and the lowest morals of any group of animals I have ever seen. Thank God for the United States Marine Corps!” - Eleanor Roosevelt
- CannibalTom, on 10/10/2007, -6/+36***** it, I'll stick a finger up my ass too!
- wm2010russ, on 10/20/2007, -11/+30"People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf."
get the sand out of your vaginia - IAMKOREA, on 10/10/2007, -3/+22Yeah because young men in other countries never make crude jokes about sex. This is something totally unique to America.
- dondara, on 10/10/2007, -6/+23On the same page. http://youtube.com/watch?v=57hfWhlS1T8
- Gabberwok, on 10/10/2007, -0/+14Your username is DirtySnachez and you think you're any better than this guy?
- nhprm, on 10/10/2007, -15/+29they're wasting my money even having a gun, or flying "over there" in the the first place, but thanks for being self-righteous *****.
- Abennobashi, on 10/10/2007, -0/+12I think it was set up and gonzo's just an american soldier. you never saw his face.
- SiNN4R, on 10/10/2007, -9/+21I am.
- Donarudo, on 10/10/2007, -7/+19Priceless..I wonder if this is real. Haha. Gonzo sounds mexican.
- roomforpanic, on 10/10/2007, -4/+16Just as long as we don't teach them that 'sea' is spelled 'see.'
- leprix, on 10/10/2007, -0/+12i really hope his name is actually gonzo.
- troycott, on 10/10/2007, -2/+13good grief. Poor gonzo.
- betterth, on 10/10/2007, -0/+10We ask men to kill emotionlessly. We take them from their girlfriends and wives, and put them in a situation where they could die at any time. It's no surprise, it's basically expected that you'll get guys acting like this. You think British soldiers are different? Or Australian? Or any other nationality? The only difference will be the language or the accent.
- SiNN4R, on 10/10/2007, -3/+13You're projecting your own racism onto the video.
- GawtMilk, on 10/10/2007, -4/+13"No wonder civilized people hate us outside the USofA."
Maybe on Digg. People overseas love Americans . . . rich, big tippers, inquisitive, great for tourism. - RuskiBanger, on 10/10/2007, -4/+13What disturbs me about this is the whiny barbie toting half men who are complaining about this. These are real men doing the work that only real men can do... they are like brothers and have a bond that most of us will never have the pleasure of experiencing. Leave them alone, they are joking, having fun and making the best of a bad situation that most of you could not even attempt to handle without crying like an infant.
- DirtySnachez, on 10/10/2007, -5/+13nah, thats the way most 'tards talk.
- betterth, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8What would you prefer Wageslaven? No military at all? If you think the time of world peace and total mutual understanding has come than you're retarded. Get out of your SUV, get out of suburbia and take a good hard look at how ***** up the world. You think in the majority of cases America is to blame? We may have exacerbated the situation, but name one situation we created from the ground up. There isn't one. As long as there is diversity, as long as their is free will among peoples and governments, there will be wars.
Whether it's for natural resources or ideologies, war will never leave as long as free men run government.
So sure, demonize those that protect this country. Sure, their services are not needed in Iraq right now. But the fact of the matter is, we need psychopathic murderous teenagers to protect our country. What else can we use? Something tells me dipolomacy isn't going to work in the vast majority of cases. Would diplomacy have stopped the Viet Cong? The Nazis? Would diplomacy stop any number of the liberation armies in any number of third world countries?
The answer is "no" and you know it. - revid_ffum, on 10/20/2007, -2/+10All of these uneducated idiots who are commenting "no wonder the world hates Americans" or "THIS is where my tax money is going" have got to be Trolls. I feel sorry for the individual who has no time in their life for comedy and does not understand gallows humor ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gallows_humor )
Firemen, Soldiers, Victims of natural disaster, POWs, and anyone in stressful situations use humor to cope. We are fortunate to get a glimpse of how our boys have fun in a place most of us would not be able to cope with.
If you are not Trolls, then please think before you comment. If you have a strong opinion about the war make it in another forum, not a discussion about a humorous video. Also, try not to have one sentence opinions and then maybe others will listen to what you have to say. - ShaneApex, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8I think Gonzo's eyes are set really close together in his skull.
- LacanX, on 10/20/2007, -1/+9Hilarious, if i was the guy w/ the camera i would be cracking up. Its not like its a bad thing, he is a soldier - he is going to be discussing Aristotle and Socrates. Plus, even in war movies they have the one token guy who acts like this guy(though, a little turned down so people don't get offended).
- Kyrgizion, on 10/10/2007, -2/+9And the pink sock.
- wm2010russ, on 10/10/2007, -8/+15you [insert inferior country name here] and your lack of reading comprehension. all i said was that the guy in the video at least has the balls to sign up and fight whatever war congress tells him to fight, regardless of the odds. i respect people like that a lot more than pussies like you and kalleanka, who are only concerned about taxes and not offending people with 2 and a half ***** minutes of sex jokes of all things. oh the horror!
- DirtySnachez, on 10/10/2007, -4/+11He forgot The Shocker.
- doctorfungi, on 10/10/2007, -27/+34What? A soldier serving his country can't talk about sex for 3 minutes without your tax money going to waste?
Here's a tip... go out there and pick up a gun yourself if you're not happy with the way our boys are doing it. Pussy. - theblooms, on 10/10/2007, -2/+9"problems with education"
Easy fix: take the government out of the equation.
"violence"
NO easy fix. Since the dawn of man, we have been killing each other. Do you believe in Darwinism? Then you KNOW that members of the same species will ALWAYS kill each other for dominance. All we can do is defend ourselves from others that would do us harm. Hence the existence of the Marines, Sailors, Soldiers and Airmen.
"greed and selfishness"
To quote Gordon Gecko: 'Greed is good.' Who do you think /really/ helped more people in this world - Mother Theresa or the convicted felon Michael Milken? (Hint: it ain't Mother Theresa!) Michael Milken created over 10,000 high paying jobs and founded several VERY successful medical Philanthropies that have led to countless cures for diseases. Fortune Magazine even gave him a cover story and called him "The Man Who Changed Medicine".
The rest of your post is pure tripe. My dad is a Vietnam vet. My brother-in-law is a Gulf War vet. My Father-in-law is an Air Force vet. My boss is a Master Sergeant in the Air Force that just got called up to do his 3rd tour in the Desert. All of them (except my wife's brother, he is an ass) are good men, and you insult them. If that is what you really think of our armed service men and women, may I be the first to say I pity you, and pray that you never need their help. How fortunate that you were born into a society that has the freedom to denigrate those that keep you free.
- crimpshrine, on 10/20/2007, -0/+7What did you miss?
It's a rip on Gonzo. Suggesting Gonzo is a homosexual. - SpoonMachine, on 10/10/2007, -5/+12Yeah, it's not a God forsaken burnt sandhole, it's practically a Chuck E. Cheese.
- t3soro, on 10/20/2007, -0/+6dude, they're just soldiers ***** around. you would too if you hadn't seen your family in 6 months. who's thumb is up your ass?
- GawtMilk, on 10/10/2007, -2/+8Slaughtering defenseless people? You're right, there's no honor in that. Keep in mind that that scandal had what, ten perpetrators? There are 1,500,000 people in the United States Military. Way to make a huge generalization with no basis in fact. You're the TRUE hero.
- Abennobashi, on 10/10/2007, -3/+9***** you.
- Typhoon2009, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6Hell if I was over there I'd do that too. Relieves some of the stress you know.
- FunkyWitDaSysTm, on 10/10/2007, -4/+9i was kind of surprised in the beginning, when he's talking about a chick going down on him or a *dude* or "whatever", he seems completely indifferent as to which it might be. ya kinda expect that he'd get all homophobic at a remark like that, but no one there seemed to.
i dunno. i think that's cool. - GawtMilk, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6Well we've certainly created problems, the difference is we're trying to fix them. We don't bomb the ***** out of our enemies, and say "that'll teach you". We build them back up again, essentially turning them into allies. Japan's economy is in debt to the United States, as we shared patents with them at the end of the war.
Japan's economy wouldn't be where it is today if it weren't for Nagasaki or Hiroshima. - jjb123, on 10/10/2007, -2/+7I love comments like this because it show who is really ignorant, the people who don't know the definition of ignorant.
- Mercifool, on 10/10/2007, -2/+6Best Vid I've seen come out of iraq, PEROID.
- demizer, on 10/10/2007, -4/+8OMG he didn't mention the Donkey Punch. http://www.subgenius.com/updates/5-99news/X0027_th ...
- pelman, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Sneak-A-Peak is ***** hilarious. The guy does have some good tips though and you guys can't argue about that. :)
- IAMKOREA, on 10/10/2007, -3/+6Which cultural differences? The cultural differences between the two soldiers, or between the young men of other nations? Because I'm pretty sure having a little good natured and light hearted fun at a foreigner friends expense is something young men of other nations would never do either.
- crimpshrine, on 10/13/2007, -1/+4Great video, glad some of the soldiers have the ability to find some humor in their spare time.
They were ***** with the guy. (Not in a mean or cruel way either) That is what guys do at times with each other.
I don't think giving buddies a hard time is an American thing. - Gabberwok, on 10/10/2007, -2/+5This is what Alberto Gonzalez has been doing since leaving the Bush administration...
- SuperCUBE, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4According to the Pentagon, this is a break of national security.
