Marines are now recruiting with an eye to finding the next Gunnery Sergeant Triggly Puff:
The U.S. Marine Corps issued new guidelines over the Fourth of July holiday weekend that will relax weight limits for servicewomen.
Female Marines will now be allowed to weigh five to seven pounds more than previously accepted for each inch of their height, the Washington Post reported Tuesday. A 5-foot-9 woman, for example, who was previously allowed to weigh up to 169 pounds, can now weigh up to 176 pounds.
The Commandant of the Marine Corps, Gen. Robert Neller, detailed the changes Friday as the military continues to fully integrate women into combat positions. He also outlined an overhaul to the Marines Corps’ annual combat fitness and physical fitness tests.
Word is they’ve bought the rights to Matt Forney’s Big Lovin’ and will issue it shortly as a field training manual.
The truth is if r goes far enough, nothing, no matter how ridiculous, is impossible. Gunny Triggly Puff doing an R. Lee Ermey at Paris Island on new recruits, and the issuance of Big Lovin’ as official training material is not at all impossible.
r is an infinite scale. There is no bottom to the insanity, save for the Apocalypse.
[…] The Few, The Proud, The Fat Chicks Of The Marines […]
A five foot nine inch woman that weighs 176 pounds can become a Marine?

Oh, I get it; the apocalypse is coming! It’s all over now. Real men are taking over; real men that use other people’s code to copy other people’s articles all day long so they can post their own two cents on the internet. Wow, fat chicks in the marines, some Canadian woman commits a hate crime that some judge says is not a hate crime, Antarctic sea ice is growing…
Here’s one for you: a grizzly bear shits in the woods so the massive sovereign debt is enlarged; the Pope is Catholic so our death and misery are sought by unlucky liberals.
There are fat chicks in the marines and it’s just another governmental conspiracy to suppress the inevitable apocalypse. Keep ‘em coming web man; keep us informed of the crumbling world around us and the eminent resurgence of the cave man.
So- Caracas in the big cities, roving armed warlords and co. in the outback. Take heed fellow rural conservatives, it is not yet too late to prepare and organize.
Why the heck is the military training women for combat? Don’t answer – it’s a rhetorical question. Besides, I know why. It’s all part of the plan. God help us!
You know Giaimo, rhetoric becomes much more effective if the people reading it can tell if you’re for or against a particular position… Just sayin….
You see this a lot in comment threads these days. Too many try to ladle in the snide-ness as thick as they can, and end up getting lost in it’s vapors.
Military intelligence has established that a man’s bravado is directly correlated to his paralysis when presented with a vagina. Nothing incapacitates a cowboy more than the bearded clam.
