Today, I realized that as a U.S. Marine in the infantry, I'm more afraid to talk to girls than I am of getting shot at. FML

Today, I realized I am more confident running a million-dollar piece of construction equipment than I am around people of the opposite sex. FML

Today, I was excited to finally get an interview after being unemployed since getting out of the military nearly a year ago. Turns out, they weren't even interested in hiring me. They'd just never met a female Marine before. FML

Today, I realized that I will be leaving for the US Marine Corps in June, and the presidential election is in November. I could potentially be serving with Trump as my Commander-in-Chief. FML

Today, I realized the closest thing I have to guys hitting on me are the ones who ask to be my friend on Call of Duty because I have the word "girl" in my name. FML

Frying pan, meet fire
Today, I got back from an 8 month deployment but rather than being pleased to see me my wife wanted to continue the same argument we were having the day I left. I miss being shot at. FML

Today, I overheard my mother and sister talking so I stopped to eavesdrop. I recently enlisted in the Marines, and they were talking about what they would do with the money if I died. FML

Smooth brainrot
Today, in my college class, our teacher asked us what we wanted to do when we get out of college. I guess being a U.S. Marine gets you a lecture for the whole class to hear that I'm a war hungry pig, and should get a real job that requires a brain. My job field is Aircraft repair. FML

Catch!
Today, I was walking up to girlfriend's house when her terrifying Marine Corps dad threw a football at me. Not being very athletic, I surprised myself by catching it. He gestured for me throw it back and I watched it spiral wildy to the left and hit my girlfriend's mom in the face. FML

Thank you for your service. You are twice the man most of these kids are. Wear your uniform out sometime to the bar. You might have more confidence.

It's a good day when more people show respect for a marine than post a mean comment. :) Girls aren't that bad though.

I just got out of the Marines and if it's one thing I've learned, its that being a Marine doesn't entitle you to anything from anyone and to act like it does is disrespectful to fellow Marines and everyone else for that matter. Modesty goes a long way buddy. Also the girls around Camp Pendleton or Camp Lejune could really care less if you're a Marine. In fact, the less you act like a Marine there, the better your chances.
