"Operator culture" or as the kids call it - tacti-cool.

Not sure what that means. I was with a lot of Rangers and Operators. Our kits were always stored ready to go in our plywood cubbyhole. All you had to do was go in the room and get your Kit and you were ready to go. I was as high drag low speed as they come, but it was common language across the board where I was stationed.

Contempt for younger generations is clearly the glue that holds this dusty old board together, heh.

No disrespect intended. Just meant that a lot of folks out there have adopted that specialized lingo and lifestyle, regardless of service.

Non taken, but hundreds of thousands youth served and discharged since we went to war. They brought home a lot that is changing culture and Webster’s. Not really any different than any other generation that served in a war time.

My favorites are the guys in fully enclosed, heated box blinds dressed head to toe in Sitka (or similar high end camo). They usually weigh north of 300 lbs too.

You seen the guys dressed in head to toe "scent lock" smoking cigarettes and drinking coffee?

Two very much overused items; "Congrats" and beginning a sentence or thread with "SO".

I’m going to hit my milk run tomorrow and see if I can glass up a stud locked down with a doe, then I’ll put a stalk on him and drop the hammer.

On another note, when did it become acceptable to laugh after you shoot something? That’s as odd as it gets. Act like you’ve been there before.

 

[Hilljackoutlaw]

Ih no...I was reading a thread and a HTer is "running" something. All in good fun thusby

 

[thusby]

Boy, it would've been really ironic had I put that one in my list.

I've also been known to call binoculars "nockeroos", but that stems from scouting the lakeshore from my pontoon during the summer months.

One of the "Solo Huntr" guys likes to say "smack a slick" when talking about shooting a doe on his lease in Oklahoma. Drives me insane.
