Max Uriarte’s latest Terminal Lance comic is brilliant. I think every single GWOT vet has seen or been in at least one of these videos.

Drowning pool.. the pinnacle of early 2000s hype music. Right next to headstrong by trapt.

I think of all the GWOT videos I’ve seen the one that stands out the most is the army unit on patrol and the gunner opens up with his 249. The reason it’s memorable is because it DIDNT JAM. Living proof that miracles do happen.

That was my son’s favorite song for a long time. Felt like the worst / best parent ever when in a line he asked me, “daddy, can we listen to my favorite song in the car?”
“Sure dude, what’s that?”
My then 6 year old, “Let’s the Bodies hit the floor!!!”
The little old lady behind us went from oh how sweet, to bewildered and disapproving.
