I don't understand it either. I think provari is pretty solid!
OK, why all the ProVari hate?

Oh, no, no... Those poor folks can keep wading around in their pee pee water and eating their onion sammiches...
I've been underway, bobbing on the surface for 2 days with no propulsion, running the diesel in reduced electrical cause the damn reactor decided it wanted to shut down... That's a horrible feeling, wouldn't ever wish that on anyone... Especially in a submarine... Imagine... Put a cigar in a bathtub, then start slapping your hand in the water... Watch that cigar thrash around... LoL! That's what it was like, for 2 days... Horrible! You could count on one hand how many folks weren't puking their guts out... Few times was I ever so excited to get the ship submerged again...

26 days out so sea was the longest I went without a port call. We ate pretty darn good, I can't really complain, especially for floating in a tin can (destroyer).
Edit: Speaking of shellback and food, I've also eaten a maraschino cherry from the grease and peanut butter smeared belly button hole from the royal baby at King Neptune's Court...

You were underway for 6 months without ever hitting a single port? Good lord!
Longest I was ever underway was 96 days... We had to pull in to Okinawa for a whopping three hours to pick up food and paper of all things... Then we went back out for another month before finally hitting our first port of the deployment... That was awful... Halfway night happened before we ever hit our first port...
That was the really bad thing about nuclear power... That ship could stay out to sea forever... Our only saving grace was underway replenishment on a submarine is fairly unfeasable... Not impossible, just not practical...

Haha!! Yeah, I've eaten quite a few things I'm not proud of... As a result of silly naval traditions... I can't even remember all the nasty things that entered my stomach during Chief's initiation...
USS Dubuque LPD-8. Replenishment at sea was the way for us. Three Cobra sorties a day/7 days a week. We went through 50 to 60 foot swells once.

you may want to edit that part out
Heck no! Navy Chief, Navy Pride! Hoooyah! Proud to have been initiated! Especially since all the shenanigans have come to a screeching halt over the past few years... Guess some politicians found out what we were doing! Hehe... Now it's all just PT and training... Probably more valuable, but we had a lot more fun back in the day
Do you hear those sirens going off? That is the sound of the Buffalo Police entering the building.
What you ate was almost certainly bison, not buffalo.
Those huge furry beasts that used to roam the plains are bison, not buffalo.
There are only two species of buffalo in the world...
--Water Buffalos in Asia
--Cape Buffalos in Africa
The idea that bison are buffalos is one of the biggest misconceptions I can think of.
And I'm trying to change that, one person at a time!
Funny how your name is Dingo, but your avatar is a fluffy kitty!
My dog's collar is made from bison hide and elk skin. I just tell people it's made of buffalo leather. If I say anything else their eyes start glazing over.Do you hear those sirens going off? That is the sound of the Buffalo Police entering the building.

Fat Girl. I haven't heard of that brand before. Is "dirty thong" a variable volt mod or mechanical?
I can get lions meat if anyone is interested. I've got a hook up. Pretty cheap too. LMK.
Also interested in a trade for that fat girls thong?
