[ARCHIVED THREAD] - What have you learned from "GD" (Page 1 of 3)

Posted: 4/20/2014 9:48:01 AM EDT

I have learned that Arf is an AMAZING resource full of great minds and killer information.
I rarely watch news anymore because i can get the truth right here. and ALL of breaking newsworthy,and some not, stories.

I have also noted that GD is the "Southcentral" or " Compton " if you will, of AR15.com....
if you go there you had better be Armed and Ready,...Locked and Loaded.. Them fuckers dont play!!! it can be brutal.

I've learned that today's most beloved equipment, training and people are tomorrow despised for some of the silliest reasons.

Embracing more fads than a preteen girl.

Which seems counterintuitive, given that it's usually a post that gets nailed.

The bloody knuckles part of ARFcom.

If you hang around you will be amazed with what they come up with.

Everyone knows something and there are a lot of members here.

Compton has been revitalized and isn't really that bad of a place now days. It got a serious facelift years ago.

There are people who take EVERYTHING seriously and you can troll them without fail and nobody even rats on you they just sit back.

about 75% of arfcom are some lazy bastards and won't even watch a video unless its embedded

They will run anything into the ground...mercilessly and still not stop with it. I have heard "neckbeard" here more in the last month than everywhere else on the internet combined ever.

There are a good amount of really cool, down to earth members that are always there to help you out or offer their informed opinion on things if you ask for it.

Taking a picture at the beach would be too NSFW for here, but aside from that we have free reign...just give a warning.

Without fail....every time you see someone throw out that comment thats just baiting someone it WILL get a bite.

Any poll I ever make, no matter the choices, is a fail.

There are exceptions to every rule...even 13ers....albeit very very rare.

CHILI AND CINNAMON ROLLS TOGETHER IS A THING IN NEBRASKA!

That a ship 456 feet long weighing in at 7725 tons in broad daylight, in clear weather, on the open sea is as difficult to identify at 300 feet as is a camouflaged 32 foot long main battle tank sitting still in heavy vegetation at 3500 feet.

In the spirit of this thread, I want to say you're wrong.

But the reality is, you're very correct.

I've learned that if you are ever feeling eccentric or that you think you're strange, step into GD.

In no time will it remind you that you are very normal.

I have learned how to properly spell:

dag
kitteh
babnanas
sammich

I have learned "cool story bro" is always a funny response, but my wife doesn't think so.

I have learned cops hate dags, and will shoot mine the first chance they get.

I have learned no matter how good or bad my dating/sex life, someone, somewhere has it far better or worse, and most likely has a funnier story than me.

I have learned that almost all of GD is 6'2'', 190 pounds of pure tier 1 operator muscle.

I have learned never to mention my wife in a thread unless I also want to post a picture or else no one will participate.

I have learned it is acceptable to comment on a thread without ever really reading the initial post.

I have learned that posting a gif is almost always an acceptable response to any question.

I have learned that you either think all pit bulls must die or that they are the best pets on planet earth, there is no middle ground.

I have learned that no matter what, since I joined in 2013, no one will ever really like me.

But above it all, I have learned that there is a lot of pretty decent people here, most of which Id love to have a beer with.
