I don't like structure.
I don't like fucking leadership.
I don't like being managed.
You know what I mean?
I don't like any of that, but basic training was easy.
Wake up, do your shit.
Pretty fucking simple.
You know what I mean?
The garbage can's only going across the floor because it's scripted and they probably do this every fucking month.
You know what I mean?
And as a guy who loves talking shit and being funny at the time, like these obscenities were new to me and I thought that was great.
And like they'd yell at somebody and I just, I'm over there trying to hold back my laughter and then, you know, my drill sergeant would be like, do pushups.
I'd be like, yes, drill sergeant.
You know what I mean?
Why?
Because I'm laughing again because I think his obscenities are funny.
Even when he'd yell at me, I thought it was funny.
You know what I mean?
So I thought basic training was great, man.
I had a great fucking time.
