    Default Just a little off...

    "Sniper School Training & Halo 3 Tournament
    >Sign-up Now!"

    Those words were followed by a small picture of Master Chief holding a sniper rifle superimposed on an all-to-familiar background.

    The ad, which I saw while poking around on facebook, was for the United States Army.

    Does this make anyone else slightly uneasy?

    Yesterday i talked with my roomie about the "war" and how he and other people in the armed forces feel about it, i think this is reflective of the greater problem rather than a singular bad turn of events.

    Wow, that's some nice advertising. Though, really, wrong message to give out for joining the army, don't you think?

    I hear the war your taking part in gets saved automatically, and you get to re-wind, fast forward and pause the war footage.

    "No way, you seriously didn't get a head shot with that terrorist"

    *Rewinds*

    "OMG"


    Edit: So many typos then. ;; *fixes*
