I like them, but as I am not military I feel slightly poser like when I think about buying them.

Meh...some are funny. I agree that being covered in them is a tad odd, but not sure what is so "baffling" about a funny patch stuck to a bag, shirt, plate carrier, etc. Finding it hard to gin up righteous indignation over this one. I know right....its so baffling! I mean, it's like totally a mystery I can't solve. It's a small funny patch. BFD. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Anyone else baffled by people wearing these things? Meh...some are funny. I agree that being covered in them is a tad odd, but not sure what is so "baffling" about a funny patch stuck to a bag, shirt, plate carrier, etc. Finding it hard to gin up righteous indignation over this one. Quoted:
Small, cheap, collectible, funny, interesting, easy to wear/display/change/trade... and you wonder why some people like them? I know right....its so baffling! I mean, it's like totally a mystery I can't solve. It's a small funny patch. BFD. I know, right? I think OP is attention whoring or needs to lighten up. |

View Quote I will say that as an out of shape, overweight civilian type, I go out of my way to avoid any that might give the appearance of poseuring. No "major league door kicker" or "pork eating crusader" type patches. I even felt weird about name-tapes but mostly got them to ID some range bags. But mostly I buy the funny ones, none that would give a hint that I served (when I most clearly didn't). I don't think anyone would confuse the retard meter morale patch with me being in the military. At least, I hope they wouldn't. That said, if I ever found any velcro patches like my avatar I'd probably buy some, but that's mostly to honor my Grandfather (that was his division in WWII). Still would be wary of wearing them and only place in very non-standard ways. |

Meh, I'll never understand why people give a damn what others wear, think, say or do. Is there really nothing better to do with your time than piss and moan about what others do with their lives? Go neck beard some ammo, play with yourselves, do some actual work. WTF View Quote Arfcom - the place where people want to be left alone and not judged by others.....doing the judging. |

If I was flight crew I would wear this one every day till caught by SgtMaj.

All Velcro must be covered! I only have one morale patch. A suck meter. And I bought it in the "olden days" circa 2003. I had a suck meter on my crainial when I was with skids.

I just refuse to give a fuck about what someone wears or doesn't wear, likes or doesn’t like.
I just don't care. |

You're required to have at least 14 pieces of flair,more is better but the minimum is 14

Because some of them are funny and make those around you laugh.

I've got the "Fuck it, we'll do it live!" one on a PASGT in my trunk somewhere, a shit magnet one on a chest rig, and I want the 102nd Chairborne one for general range use (I work in IT). They can be overdone but I find them entertaining, as long as it isn't some unsafe kid clearly trying to pose as a marine or something at the range.
If it gets more people interested in shooting it's a good thing. It's not all OFWGs plinking from the bench. Also, we need an OFWG patch made up... |

I put my name and radio number patch on my pack and radio harness when I am on a mission. Sometimes a US flag patch. I have a lot of other patches that stay on the carpet sidewall in my truck. I pretty much don't care what others think.

Some of them are pretty funny and a single patch isn't so bad. I'm a firm believer that you can use the pouch:patch ratio on someone's gear to determine their level of douchebaggery/poserism. I've never known of a guy who had as many patches as pouches that wasn't a complete dickhead. View Quote Kinda my view on bikers |

I need a Frank Zappa face patch. "Rammit up your poop chute!" |

I still want an "Innocent Bystander" police style patch for the gear I'd like to use for 3 gun and shit. That would be pretty fucking awesome. I think "Suspect" would be even funnier! |

I don't mind them, except on the 300# neckbeards I see at Wally World buying all the damn ammo.
|

My kids like them, I give them to them and they put them on their items that have velcro. Sure beats stickers everywhere.

Bumper stickers and t-shirts with quirky stuff on them. Personal expression all up in here...
Some folks do the minimum 12 pieces of flare, some want more flair than others. |
