Wow! The U.S. Army wants me!!! Should I join?
They must be pretty hard up if they're recruiting 36 year old women!

I can get a free army tee shirt if I either a) request more information or b) send them someone else's info.

Hmmm.....

2. On one hand, you'd be giving the govt someones personal info...
but on the other hand you get a free shirt!

I'm glad I don't have to choose.

4. I know, isn't it grotesque?
They're getting dumb kids to sell each other out for crappy t-shirts.

5. I received this exciting offer in the mail.
Personally addressed to me.

They got my name and address from the college I am currently attending.

The t-shirt is white with a small emblem on the upper left.

10. Man, you're lucky
In high school, I was just offered tube socks.

A recruiter was stupid enough to call my houseonce when I was a senior - I was already heading to college with an academic scholarship. I laughed at him and hung up the phone.

17. RAs didn't fare too well back then
Whenever they tried to complain, we just told them to shut the fuck up.
