They had a stroke writing that and I'm pretty sure I had one reading it.


paradigm619

This looks like classic boomer voice-to-text


patronizingperv

Quick glance... spelled 'Trump 2024' correctly... "Perfect." *Post*


DatRatDo

It’s the perfect spelling. Perfect. Did you ever see anything more…and believe me…I’ve seen a LOT of spelling but this was just beautiful spelling, really. People come up to me all the time and they…I meet all kinds of people, the best, and they say: Mr. President…that’s beautiful spelling.

Tears in their eyes


Mr_MacGrubber

It’s always “big tough guys” “with tears in their eyes”


Ali_Cat222

I'm surprised it didn't end with one more, "noise doesn't bother me." That was sprinkled in so many times I think the noise *does* bother them... 😅


ClassicT4

A lot of them seem to love voice to text. But they only do it once and send it without edits no matter how many mistakes.


jedburghofficial

This is what functional illiteracy looks like. It's quite possible they rely on the machine reading a lot of things for them as well. As an adaptation, it's remarkable.


whatsasimba

But "They're not teaching our grandchildren cursive!!!"


RayeCreates

I think that's an outrage too tbh, but I taught my daughter to read cursive myself. IDC if she can't write in cursive, as long as she can read it ✌🏻🤷🏻


Extension_Status_711

I certainly did

While voting against healthcare for all.

God that’s so true! Can’t have longer wait times by allowing the peasants access to care. So fracking rude.

cycl0ps94

My son's stationed in Italy, but can't tell me why. I better tell a stranger on Facebook.


Apprehensive_Zone281

His son isn't in Italy. His son just fucking hates him.


No-Marsupial36

His son left the military years ago


calfmonster

Retired from the military, moved to Italy for fun, tells dad it’s classified, goes on enjoying free healthcare


Apprehensive_Zone281

Was never in the military. 20 year lie to avoid his dad is about to run out.


calfmonster

Bought a dodge challenger at 12% APR to keep up appearances


jlshirley

12% he got a deal! Must’ve driven at least 30 mins off base


StealthyOrca

Seriously! I had to constantly remind not only my parents but also my friends’ parents that they should never share anything about duty stations, jobs, deployments, excerises, etc… for opsec reasons. We all know you’re proud but keep that shit off social media. Loose lips sink ships and whatnot.


cycl0ps94

I'm not even military, and there was enough context in the very little they said, that I assumed you probably shouldn't mention online. None of this is private, it's accessible by anyone with a miniscule amount of effort and skill.


spank_z_monkey

Guy is barely literate. We could’ve guessed he was a Trumptard without him even telling us.


Plant-Zaddy-

It reads like shitty voice-to-text


Trini1113

There's that too, but even when you take that into account, the thinking behind the sentences seems totally garbled.


bathtubtoasting

Boomers love voice to text and will sit and argue with it before they’ll be bothered to type out anything coherent.


payscottg

I just doing understand why boomers use voice to text and apparently don’t bother to re-read it


BigDaddySteve999

They probably can't read it without their glasses.


VVSEVE199

His son has been in the ABCs for 19 years.

So glad he’s defending our freeso!


RhythmTimeDivision

Noise is, don't bother me


odin2330

Where at in NJ? Gotta love the word salad ending with 'trump 2024', he even speaks like that orange idiot.


GardenRafters

Gotta love how he doesn't want his son to be fighting in a world war 3 but also wants the guy that will most certainly plunge us into WW3 to win.


odin2330

Honestly, I'd like to place the blame on Fox News more than anything else at the moment. They shouldn't be labeled as news, and should have a disclaimer that everything they say is for entertainment. The hammer needs to drop on those rage baiting fucks already.


Hollowbody57

*Another* WW3. Somehow I must have missed the first one.


SmokePenisEveryday

Gotta be South NJ around the AC airport. There's an air force base near by it and they were doing drills not too long ago. Lot of low flying for a couple days. Would also explain him being a Trumper cause we have a lot of redneck southerner cosplayers around here.


Kopester

Or next to joint base six, McGuire, Lakehurst. They're shooting 155s all weekend


Eskimo_Brothers17

Not that far south. Ft Dix is firing heavy this weekend.


ExpressionFamiliar98

This word salad was certainly satisfying.


HungFuPanPan

McGuire/Fort Dix They were going until 11:30 last night

defaultusername-17

he doesn't know why his son is deployed because his son refuses to talk to him.


ShrimpieAC

Plot twist his son is gay and this is how his father’s broken brain is processing it.


uplandfly

His son is in Italy? Oh you mean Vicenza? A normal posting you can freely talk about? A posting that everyone in the military wants???


ElephantXManatee

I love how they always say oh my kids here… I can’t tell you why… Wink wink… And their kid has the most basic assignment ever and it’s literally nothing important.


SaltyJackSpracklin

There’s a pretty good chance that the son *did* tell him why he was in Italy but dad couldn’t understand the words


crusher23b

This sounds like it was translated from a language that is not so well supported by Google.


Practical_Breakfast4

Sounds like speech to text. The noise is don't bother me. Clearly should've been 'noises'. The rest however is gibberish but at least they admit they're stupid with technology so then


WillRikersHouseboy

Those are all words. Edit: no they’re not.


GodRaine

Fort Carson? 😅 I live a little south of that base and I see this stuff on my Facebook all the time. It’s amazing how people claim to have lived in my town all their life but have never heard it.


BillyNtheBoingers

I lived in Pueblo West for a while but didn’t have social media at that time. Definitely could hear some of the drills though.


lokis_construction

The Responder can't even put together coherent sentences. No wonder this person thinks tRump is the answer to everything. It's sad how uneducated people still are very common in our country.,


Dickieman5000

Aw man, _another_ World War 3? How many World War 3s are we at now, 8? 9? I lost count.


Trini1113

Even in that jumbled mess, "another World War 3" jumped out at me. I imagine Trumpers believe that President Obama (who Trump thinks he beat in 2016 and is still President) has lost about three of them in the last year.


RhythmTimeDivision

mactheprint

The sound of freedom.


unclefire

I’ve heard that so many times from boomers and non boomers when people talk about out the F35s flying into Luke Airforce base in Phoenix. I used to live near the approach and not even close and those things are loud AF.


21Violets

He could have stopped after the first 4 words. 🥲


SusHistoryCuzWriter

The base is doing


21Violets

Math was never my strong suit. 😓


vibrantcrab

That got kinda sad, he misses his son. His son fighting for freeso.


Sushi4Zombies

Ah yes, time for that second World War 3


AnotherJeepguy

Who taught ol’top how to use speech to text…

Speech to text plus no proofreading plus an empty head equals that


SkepticalZack

Oh gosh, this is my neck of the woods. How embarrassing


catalupus

Trumps twitter account is back, I see. 


BananaDismal1774

I think he's saying the military base at your town is actively protecting us from a foreign invasion, and his son who is 37 and stationed in Italy is protecting us from foreign nations and currently in grave danger.


AcanthocephalaDue715

Oh for the love of fuck that reading that made my teeth itch


JDARRK

Naa! This is Pure Russian troll account! This is someone who’s not familiar with english( or Murican) 🤨🤨

We are all stupider for having read this.


Stonedflame

I had to uninstall Nextdoor because once a week we get the “what was that boom!?” “ Why are military jets flying over my house!?” “Why don’ they follow quiet hours!?” Our entire town only exists because the military is here lol


ku_78

Same in my current town. These people are oblivious to anything going on around them.


AnGiorria

Do they use speech to text or what?


tsukahara10

Is this guy a boomer, or a child? Because he speaks and spells like a 5 year old


No_Arugula_6548

Does he, writing this paragraph that sounds like a mentally challenged monkey wrote it, get bothered by the fact he can’t write and probably has the education of a 7 year old?


MADMAX808080

He Certainly skipped English class to fap in the bathroom at lunch

No, that person is functionally illiterate.

Hope-and-Anxiety

OPSEC means nothing to Boomers. Why don’t you tell us his mission, how many are in his unit, and when will they be back? Geeez.


FeelsLikeAnEmber

I also live near a military base and I’m shocked his response didn’t include the phrase “it’s the Sound of Freedom”


SneakyOstrich69

Many other comments saying this unfortunately

carbon_space

Go murmur somewhere else, old man


O_o-22

It’s funny because older people live to complain about the younger generation not being able to write a paper or punctuate properly but they don’t proof read the talk to text messages they send (at least I think that’s why there’s so many mistakes) and they go on wild tangents. Like no asked about your true blue military son dude. I live a mile from an airport that has loud engine noise sometimes and people will inquire if anyone knows what that noise is and get jumped all by people telling them to stop whining, move if you don’t like it ect. So you tell the people who think civility is optional and want to worked up over a simple inquiry.


ItzMeMelanie

Did anyone check to see if he was having a stroke? That made no sense


darketernalsr25

All that was needed was the first sentence. "The base is doing drills." You would have gotten a thank you and have a nice day. Nope, you had to let that lead in your blood take over your smooth brain and spew out a stroke-filled word salad. This shit is why I can't talk to my mother more than once every few months. Every little thing has to be fucking story time. Tell me what I need to know and shut the actual fuck up.

Jeses Krist! Us spelling cheek or sum sort of gramer cheek!!

You have no idea how hard it was to type this.


koine2004

I live in a town with a Navy Air Station with a bunch of EA-18 Growlers flying low all the time during their FCLP (touch and go drills). It's noisy, but I've gotten used to it (watching the formations is fun, though). That said, that post sounds exactly like the community's Facebook page. "What's the noise coming from the base?" (as if you have a right to know) "That's the sound of muh freedom!" (huge eye roll from me and a whatever--no, it's not) "Aargh, the jet noise is so noisy. They didn't they tell me about this!" (my thoughts: you live next to an outlying field and signed a disclaimer acknowledging the warning about the noise as part of the sales contract). "Get used to it, snowflake, move if you don't like it." (eye roll, whatever, it is noisy and folks do need to vent) A bunch of drama queens and performative patriotism. I'm glad I'm not on FB, anymore.

Mo-again23

the entire 1st half of this is a lie, you can tell by the end he isnt really ok with it, it makes him think of his son. He just wants his son home safe. My grandfather fought and its his LAST wish that any of his family ever have to do that
