The Army doesnt have a database where they track all the guys who have had their faces plastered across various media outlets IOT disqualify them from certain missions. However an SF soldier who knows his face has been scattered across the www should advise those making covert assignments that him being placed in such a position could jeopardize the mission and the other men associated with it.

Its all fun and games until you are trying to convince someone in a foreign country that you are someone other than who they have managed to find photos/video of on the net... ;)

Crip

Face Recognition software....
 

will really make maintaining your www PERSEC a near impossibility. Give google another few years (or months) and the ability to search by using an image of a face will become as common as today's text searches.
But maybe we have found a use for the posers- a disinfo tool!

scooter,

Vulvodynia is a chronic pain syndrome that affects the vulvar area and occurs without an identifiable cause or visible pathology categorized in the ICD-9 group 625—specifically ICD-9 625.7..........:rolleyes: which is for pain and other disorders of the female genital organs..........:confused:

Hmmmmmm..........:eek:

Bid Teddy-

I'm fairly certain Scooter caught the meaning and was playing along. The only problem is - the sand would be an identifiable cause. In the ICD-10, this would be 30.854a, "Superficial foreign body of vagina and vulva, initial encounter" for the first offense, 30.854d for subsequent encounters - with 30.854s thrown in for the pain being a sequela from said foreign body.

The ICD-10 is quite specific, it even has different codes for "pecked by chicken" and "struck by chicken".

Doc,

I'm fairly certain Scooter caught the meaning and was playing along...;) I know he did,I just love putting him on.....:D ;)

The procedure was soooooo good in fact that Slater came out looking like Nicholas Cage. LOL:D

My bad! I've gotten those two confused since "Windtalkers"!:D It was Travolta-Slater in "Broken Arrow".

Dumb ASSEtS
 

OMFG, you guys f'n crack me up. Sometimes I wonder if I'm really researching my new career or just looking for the next post that makes me almost shit myself laughing. I'm glad there is no "like" option, I'd have FTFSI by now just liking all your smartass remarks - it really is dumbfounding how easily butt hurt many of my peers get at the gentlest swat graciously given by their idols for general stupidity & laziness.

So laughing aside, i'd like to address the issue that has motivated me to waiste your precious time with my ignorant post.

Honestly it f'm keeps me up at night worrying that I won't get selected and I constantly obsess about this. Even when I'm nailing my broad, i find my mind wandering, what will I do if I don't pass the security clearance? What will I do if they fail me in selection (I'll never quit, fucking shoot me, fire me or tell me to go away).

My security clearance is where I think I'm most likely to fuck myself. My credit is shit, I owe the tax man, I have unpaid traffic tix...
and to make matters even worse, like the vast majority of my fellow dumb ASSEtS I have a fb profile, in fact I have 4, and I'm so incredibly dense, that one of these WAS actually listed in my real name for a short while, it even had real pics of me AND I had liked some US Army pages, including the 75 Regiment's page
(can someone please pass the katana now, this humiliation is extreme)
BUT I found this forum and through it I was able to wipe away just a little bit of that stupid from my eyes, just enough so I can make out this big fucking brick wall I just built myself to get in the way of my future, and now I'm looking around for a sledgehammer...

I think I've found one and I'd like the advice of the American Gods who are kind enough to donate their time and wit to idiots like me.

A. I'm changing my name, why the fuck not, I've already selected one of the most common names in America and it only costs about $250 to get the job done here in TX.

B. I'm pricing computer programmers to make me a bit of software which registers and updates bogus FB accounts for me - the idea is I want to create a cloud of bullshit tying my existing internet photos to spurious identities. I was so fucking stupid to like that FB ranger page for about 24 hours (SO stupid, that's tantamount to saying - "I want to be an SF soldier one day!" thus, tying me to our enemies' "usual suspects" database, which they could set up servers to run through data of traffic cams etc to look for face matches of suspected SF candidates. Short of going 'fight club' on FB's server farm (just a joke guys) there is no realistic way for me to undo the existing damage. BUT, I can create a cloud of bullshit to smoke screen it. I've already saved every image of me that I was ever stupid enough to post on any of my FB accounts, I never tag myself fortunately, but now I tag myself everywhere, with the wrong photos of course. Phase 2 (currently in the bidding stage) is the near effortless creation of hundreds, maybe thousands of fake FB identities using those photos, all of these identities will be of peace loving pussies who are afraid to fight. This might be overkill, but I can't help it, I've got an obsessive personality when it comes to something I feel strongly about and there is nothing I want more than my fair chance to earn my place among my heroes.

C. I am considering plastic surgery for a couple reasons. One of which is the PERSEC & my future deployability in clandestine missions (please give me a crack at the PRC) and the other is utility. Unfortunately I'm white, which makes me stick out like a sore thumb in most of the regions of the world where I could be the most use, but I could get my skin dyed, nose widened & learn Pashtu to be a little more useful to my country.

ps.
To my fellow asses, if B is successful I really don't feel yall should re-invent the wheel, I will find a way to distribute said application to you anonymously upon request in PM.

To the Gods whose footsteps I attempt to follow, feel free to rip on me, my skin is think and your humor fucking hilarious.

Reading this made me think again of something that has bothered me for years. When I was on AD, I attended the FFL Commando Course. Apparently, everyone decided it would be a great idea to have Combat Camera come out and take a bunch of pictures of those of us going through the course.

Fast Forward a couple of years, and someone pointed out that they had found my pictures from the course on several other websites. I contacted site owners and got the pictures taken down from a few, but other site owners basically told me "Hey...they mil put them on defenselink and said I could use them...so piss off."

They were first posted 6 years ago, and I can still quickly and easily find them searching on Google.

In other words, it's not just your facebook, myspace, whatever...others will throw your picture out for public consumption, and there's sometimes not a damn thing you can do about it.

Great thought process. You can never be too careful. I would also suggest murdering everyone who has ever seen you in person. That's the only way to be sure. Start with your family and neighbors.

Actually, I think you just fucked yourself with that post.
