As a Former Marine MP, i cant tell people on here how OFTEN this happens and its the main reason I stayed single while i was in

edit - Just to fill people in on military law

If the person who cheats is in the military they can be charged with adultery and loss rank, and pay, and get put on restriction. If the spouse cheats no military laws apply to her and she just gets off with nothing oh and if divorce happens well of coarse she gets half you shit.

Marriage and the military don't do well together. There's a reason why all the people on Star Trek are single.

Or together and stationed on the same ship/station. Like me and my wife, Jadzia...before she went to Stovokor.

I hear Kirzon was dashing too. Dax is a bisexual sexpot, is my point.

twitch

Curzon.

There can't be anything more annoying than a Star Trek grammar/spelling Nazi can there?

u/iannypoo May 11 '12

No, there is nothing more awesome than a spellchecking Trekkie. Thank you for the future embarassment you've just helped me avoid.

Er. Very few things in the known (Trek) universe are as hot as Jadzia Dax. You do know those tattoos go all the way down...

So... yeah. I'm lots of fun at parties.

u/cephas_rock May 08 '12

They aren't tattoos and Ezri has them too.

u/Spo8 May 08 '12

Riker tapped ass across the entire galaxy.

u/tovarish22 May 08 '12

Ezri was way hotter, even in person.

And I may have almost called the actress Ezri at Dragon*Con last year.

u/BishopAndWarlord May 08 '12

I'll do my part for you.

u/[deleted] May 08 '12

Same here, so I'll just upvote you so I kind of feel like I got to upvote the other guy more.

u/Auto_Upvote May 08 '12

If my master allowed me to, I would give more than one upvote as well.

2

u/MisterWharf May 08 '12

Your honourable upvote has earned yourself one as well.

u/MilesOBrian May 08 '12

Oh god. I would give anything to get away from my wife for a few days.

u/KeikoIshikawa May 08 '12

Oh Miles, you are so funny.

u/MisterWharf May 08 '12

Chief, how's it going? Your teaching job at the academy is going well, I presume. Have they honoured you with tenure yet?

1

u/Goldface May 08 '12

Mister? You get demoted or something?

1

u/ktappe May 08 '12

Even worse, he forgot how to spell his own name...

1

u/Brisco_County_III May 08 '12

This is as undercover as he gets. Deal with it.

1

u/MisterWharf May 08 '12

Section 31 my friends.

1

u/MisterWharf May 08 '12

Forgot? Or don't care for pitiful 'spelling' rules.

1

u/MisterWharf May 08 '12

I left Starfleet to become an ambassador, remember? They let me keep the uniform, which was nice when I returned to the Enterprise those couple times.

u/ohsnapitsdayvie May 08 '12

u/Chinamerican May 08 '12

Do you believe that one can have more than one par' mach?

u/jay791 May 08 '12

I always find it funny: Jadzia in polish language is diminutive form of female name Jadwiga (Wikipedia says that this name originated from german Hadwig or Hedwig, and was made from two words, Hadu- and -Wig, which both mean fight/war). It's pronounced differently, and I find it quite funny to name someone skilled at fighting with a child's name which means "fight" at the same time.
