...told in various permutations. The way I first heard it...had to do with a young lady that lived near a military base. To be clear, she was a civie. As she came of a certain age, she began to mingle with the boys from the base. One thing lead to another, and it soon became known that she was an easy target for a new recruit. Her reputation soon grew to having slept with the entire base staff. Most certainly, that was an overstatement of reality...but not by much.
Well...the shit hit the fan as they say and this lady, let's call her 'Boot Camp' (you do her in your first two weeks in the military)....suddenly stopped offering basic training. Her reputation reversed completely and she would thereafter only date civie men. Well, one night at a local watering hole...a group of rowdy young men were trying every trick in the manual with her to no avail. It finally escalated to a confrontation. When asked why she suddenly stopped horizontal maneuvers with the greenhorns on the base...Boot Camp exclaimed that every single army boy was a lousy lay! They threw it back in her face, claiming that other ladies seemed quit pleased with the products of military training. Maybe the real issue in all her encounters was her.
Well, Boot Camp hurriedly left the bar, tears streaming down her face in embarrassment. Firstly at having publicly admitting her familiarity with all the boys on base...and secondly at realizing she was the lousy lay...not them.
The moral of the story being...if you keep having bad experiences with other people in any aspect of your life...maybe you should consider that you're the common thread to each encounter. Stop blaming others for your life and take responsibility for yourself.
These whiners that constantly moan about the poor 'product' in Central Ohio are just like Boot Camp. They think the problem is not them. Someday, they will realize the truth and remorse will hit like a ton of bricks....mainly because they have been wasting so much time bitching when they could have been having a great life.
