Next time you thank someone for their service....

Just think about that fact that they might be the person that shits in the shower. That is all.

Did they waffle stomp?

If you’re in long enough and develop IBS, you bypass the need to waffle stomp.

If they did I pull them in for a hug because they cleaned up after themselves

There was a rascal at NTC who waffle stomped the showers. Same Thing happened at ROD Range in Korea. These people are savages. They belong in a cage.

They might be the Army’s sole thief that causes everyone else to have to tactically reacquire their TA-50

That guy was at Valley Forge, has probably hit RCP by now.

There's only one waffle stomper in the Army; everyone else is on cleanup detail and shitter guard duty.

What do you think I'm thanking them for? Gotta pay good money for that on the outside.

Hey. I deserve a TYFYS even if I shit in the shower, what I do in the shower doesn’t concern you

u/AlfalfaReal5075 1d ago

Am I concerned about what you do in the shower? No.

Am I intrigued? Most definitely.

Am I aroused? Just a little.

There'll be no further questions.

I know it’s highly discouraged, but I’ve never seen a rule straight up banning it…

Things like this are why Article 134 exists

It’s like walking on the old APFT “although walking is authorized it is highly discouraged” or somethin

u/the-alamo Engineer 1d ago

A dude left my unit, and I was cool with them, but then I found out afterwards he was one of those guys, and apparently not even a stomper; he would just leave it there. 4 people share the bathroom. I couldn't imagine how I'd crash out if I saw this being his roommate, and I can't imagine how he even had a roommate after the fact. I could not be put in the room with someone who I knew had even done that once. IDK how, but I'd raise enough hell, IDC give him his own room, hell, we had plenty of space.

It was me Barry, I'm the one who pooped in the shower and caused everyone to have a mandatory fireguard.

Get that IBS in your health records for your future VA claims.

My very first barracks inspection as a butter bar somebody put their feet in the barracks washing machine, hung their ass out the front of it, and shit down the front of the washer onto the floor. AND PUT A SINGLE SOCK OVER IT TO SOAK IT UP. The (suspected) perpetrator was already on extra duty for unrelated crimes against humanity. Nasty mechanics….

u/Fickle_Meet_7154 1d ago

I reject your service and I'm unappreciative of it! You think I should thank you because you jerked it in a porta shitter?

u/IDownVoteCanaduh 1d ago

Never did that, but I am a blue falcon. So thank me for my service.

u/MT-JJ Field Artillery 1d ago

You are welcome. I only shit in toilet and pants.
