Happy New Year, dickweeds
Thanks to all of you for making TAH a part of your days throughout the last year. Thanks for your great comments and all of those clicks you made on our ads. Thanks to all of the bloggers who’ve linked to us.
Thanks to all of the phonies who make this job so easy. Thanks to Joe Bite Me for being such a fool. Thanks to Gordon Duff for being a lunatic. Thanks to VoteVets for being so transparently partisan. Thanks to the trolls who drive the traffic. Thanks to the Washington Post and New York Times for being tools. Thanks to Paul Wickre for being an inept chickenshit clown.
Thanks to the stable of great co-bloggers who cover for me on my frequent trips to DC. Thanks for all of your tips when I’m too lazy to look for stuff to write about. Thanks to Mary and Scotty for their hard work.
Thanks to everyone who makes this the best job I’ve ever had. May your 2014 be as satisfying for you as I expect mine to be. See you next year.

Master Chief, since you have the watch, if you’re reading this go here: http://valorguardians.com/blog/?p=38816 and tie some knots in this idiot’s tale.
All clear on the horizon in all directions. All ahead full. First light coming up.
Make sure you ring your favorite poser in the New Year and let them know what you think about their shitbaggery!
Happy New Year Jonn! May 2014 be a great year for us all.
@51 “All clear on the horizon in all directions. All ahead full. First light coming up.”
I love it when you Navy vets speak in nautical terms!
Like Mater Chief’s, “All Conditions Normal”.
Almost makes me wish I had been in the Navy…almost but not quite.
Happy New Year to all! Going out to dinner and then some wine at home. Since I get to see the big ball drop at 9PM my time, I will still make it to bed on time.
From this dickweed to all the other dickweeds, Happy New Year.
Happy New Year Touchhole and a Happy New Year to all of my fellow Vets especially those that have put their knees to the breeze.
A little saying we say out here in Iowa,
Please don’t walk ahead of me cause I might not be able to follow.
Please don’t walk behind me cause I might not be able to lead
Just walk besides me and be my friend.
To you all, and Jonn, Good health, and a Happy New Years
It takes one, to know one.
Happy New Year to everyone who frequents this place. Including the posers. Maybe 2014 will be the year they come to their senses.
Nah…. Never happen…
I just got back from our holiday road trip and checked TAH, and our ramparts seems to be about overrun by phonies/nuts/posers. I’ll rejoin the fight against these scumbags after I catch my breath. In the meantime, Happy New Year to all the good folks here…
Happy New Year, TAH. Happy New Year, Jonn.
This blog has been a blessing (and perhaps a curse)
I’ve occasionally posted here for the past year or so, and have benefited from the comments – particularly from the laughs and from those of “us” who are like-minded, which is why I return. It seems if we were all to meet we would all have some great discussions, laughs, drinks, and become friends outside of this.
All of you are simply the greatest.
You all are *AWESOME* and I just wanted to post again before Midnight to tell you all, you may not be my personal (as in met you face to face) Brother and Sisters in Arms BUT, you are nonetheless, that, in fact.
I. Appreciate. And. Am. Fond. Of. Most. Each. And. Every. One. Of You. Here.
God Bless You All For 2014.
/ The Universe has powers that most of you can not even imagine….
//Right Ex-PH2? Tee Hee. Blessed Be. We *will* triumph. Exalted.
///As to.
////LOL
///// Suck it you other freaks and *YOU* know who you are.
I just want to thank you all for inspiring me into my new career for next year. I’m going to call myself a Special Forces Delta Force Sniper Drill Instructor in a Ranger Force Recon SEAL Squadron in the Coast Guard! My career rank is going to be Master Chief Warrant Officer First Class!
What do you think? Will it be believable? Do you think I can get VA Benefits and work for APL with this kind of resume?
Hey Dickweeds,
All conditions normal in the bunker!
Flagwaver: can’t speak for APL. But for the VA, I’d guess all you need is a piece of paper marked “DD214”, a compliant/gullible doctor, and a bit of luck. (The papers and doctor being either real or competent are optional.) Best I can tell, the VA often accepts claims at face value if they get any kind of medical paperwork backing them, real or not – and they don’t ever seem to double check the paperwork.
You’ll need the luck so that the paperwork doesn’t get lost while s stuck in “pending” statufor a year+ and to avoid that one VA claims processor in 1000 who owns a clue.
Yes, the above is probably a bit harsh. But after seeing all the scams out there regarding fakes getting VA bennies, it also seems closer to reality than not. For proof, see SEAL, Chippendale. Or any number of others.
@62 Flagwaver
Sorry It’s already been done….
Radar: [under his breath] Hawk!
“Hawkeye” Pierce: Huh?
Radar: [under his breath] He’s coming over here!
“Hawkeye” Pierce: Play hard to get.
Radar: Don’t horse around!
Colonel: Boys.
B.J. Hunnicut: Sir.
“Hawkeye” Pierce: Colonel.
Colonel: You all know this is an Officer’s Club, don’t you?
“Hawkeye” Pierce: I’m a Captain, Plain Clothes Division.
Colonel: Uh huh. Corporal Stripes and Captains Bars?
“Hawkeye” Pierce: That’s a new directive from the Pentagon. That’s right out of G2 and G3 making a G5 Combined Officers Op-Tech Glitch. We’re experimenting with a new rank: Corporal-Captain. We’re down here taking a survey, to see, uh, you know, if everybody likes it, uh, asking everybody in Seoul.
B.J. Hunnicut: Goldman-Hawkins, right?
“Hawkeye” Pierce: Right.
Colonel: Well, I don’t like it. I don’t like it at all!
“Hawkeye” Pierce: [to BJ] Uh, put down one “No;” one “Against.”
B.J. Hunnicut: Right. One “Negative; Corporal-Captain.”
“Hawkeye” Pierce: Thank you, Colonel. We really appreciate your help in this.
Colonel: No, Sir! I don’t like it at all!
Radar: He doesn’t like it at all.
At 61 Flagwaver: I was just assigned that MOS by the Commander in Chief, nobama. My records were instantly sealed, just like the POTUS records were sealed. You know, it’s pretty high risk stuff being a community organizer.
You better hurry down to the Army/Navy store and buy a big packet of fancy ribbons and shiny stuff because they might be closed tomorrow.
As we end 2013: How can we ever forget “Vietnam War Protester?” He/it’s hiding in mommy’s basement tonight because he’s getting the PTS from the fireworks. Gotta love these guys/it’s. By the way, be careful walking your dog you might step in a pile of VWP. Me? I’d prefer the doggy stuff, much more sanitary vs. stepping on a VWP piece of crap.
Happy New Years!
My other post got dumped cause it auto filled with my other address and probably got moderated out.
I. love. each. and. every. one. of. you. here. *EXCEPT*. you douchebags that don’t deserve that praise.
Be well all of you and Blessed Be to you (before Midnight EST) and here comes the karma and Ex-PH2….. 2014 is going to be AWESOME for all of us.
Bell safe and well for all of my friends here at This Ain’t Hell and see you in the coming days, weeks and months for 2014.
ChipNASA: that’s correct – it’s stuck in the pending queue. I let Jonn make the call on anything there other than obvious spam (I’ll kill those if I see them). His house, his call.
@67.
Much like Bill Blake.
Who you calling “dickweed”, dickweeds!?
Glad to be here, and to have been here for the past year, and to continue to be here for another year.
I join you in a hale and hearty SALUD!!
All condition no longer normal: Miley Sirus is performing with a midget in Times Square!
I heard a noise outside.
I thought it was bernastypants, vwpussypants, zippy the pinhead, rangerpants Burrell, G.I.Ducktape, phildo, psulie-o the uncoolie-o, or my neighbor shoveling snow off my front steps. You have to give all the idiots their little nod due them for 2013.
It was my neighbor. You never know. The snowplows are out piling snow up on my little bit of sidewalk now. This is so that they can get overtime, even though we’re supposed to have more snow – to 10.6 inches – by Thursday.
That ship is still stuck in the ice in Antarctica.
Dubai set a record for New Year’s fireworks – 60 miles worth along the coast.
The Illinois CCW law is now officially in effect. The state police had to go and get qualified so that they could keep their weapons.
I watched ‘Hamlet’ for entertainment tonight. I don’t think Shakespeare went far enough with it. What if Hamlet had been a girl instead of a boy? After all, Gertrude was menopausal and Claudius wanted to claim the throne. Think about it for a second.
Smooches to everyone, and thanks for all the fish!
Oh … So sorry, did I say midget before?
I meant to say “fun size”!
Happy New Year all.
Except to those who are posers and/or their supporters. For them, this very NSFW Fitzy video pretty much says it all as far as I’m concerned
I choose to look at 2014 as the start of expanded possibilities.
And I’ve had fun writing my own blog, so I’m leaving this link for your amusement.

Hey Dickweeds … Off duty and drinking a cold one Nappy Yew Hear!
@74—Gotta keep that one in mind
Sorry I’m late to this party, but I worked my 2nd job last night (my toy fund) and I would like to say Happy New Year to all you malcontents, rude, crude, and socially unacceptable types; IOW my peeps.
Reprobates, all of you. Happy to know you.
It quit snoqing at midnight but now it’s snoqing again. Just heard the plow, one street over. Good way to start 2014.
I don’t do resolutions, because they’re lame. I make up a short list of goals, things to get done this year, and keep it on the fridge where I can see it every day and draw a line through each one of them. It works. And I keep it there until the end of the year. Sense of accomplishment.
I wonder how Phildo’s taxpayer-funded party turned out last night?
Also, to the APL employee that contacted me. I have to post my response here in that their is nowhere else.
If what you say is even remotely true, then why does Phil Monkress just not simply provide proof of his Native American, Law Enforcement and SEAL claims to back up his oral statements that have procured special treatment and provided financially incentives? It is fairly simple.
I empathize with your plight, I do, so I will put it to simply and succinctly: Would you take a three-party, out-of-state, payroll check written in pencil for services provided? And what type of individual does that?
To see the answer, just walk in his office.
Take care, stay strong and good luck in your decisions. The truth is usually right in front of you.
Well Done and Thank You Jonn and the rest of your merry band of moderating fools for all you have done and are doing. Muchos Grasses Buddy!
What Hondo said @74…
As for you, Bill Blake of Bartlesville Oklahoma: Go f’ck yourself, bedwetter.
14 inches of snow accumulated by 6:30AM my time, since the snow started, and more to come.
The forecast for my area was 7.5 inches. Fortunately, it’s powder instead of wet, and easily cleared out, but it won’t stop.
For those of you living in the east, from New York to the Northeast Kingdom, it’s your turn now. Have fun!!!!
Ex-PH2: Northeast Kingdom? Don’t you mean the People’s Collective Formerly Called New England?
Hondo, you don’t REALLY want my opinion on that, do you?
Hey, we aint all commies up here in the Nor’ East… That said, I am so looking forward to my commute in at 0530 tomorrow, but even more so to digging out my car from under the expected 15+ inches of snow and whatever the plow deposits in front of it. Yup, Happy freaking New Year.
Ex-PH2: OK, ya got me. The question was indeed rhetorical. (smile)
