And now for today's "WTF?!" moment

So I'm now wondering who else got this:

The CMC outlet of Army ROTC is recruiting me. *Me.* Can anyone else back me up on how wrong and just plain strange that is? Me and "other select members of your senior class." Mmmhm. *boggles*

And here's a lovely gem in the middle of the letter:

"America's Soldiers are demonstrating the goodness of America and Americans every day around the world, instilling and protecting democratic processes, principles and values in countries like Afghanistan, Iraq, Europe, Asia, South and Central America and here in the United States. Every day, America's Soldiers, led by Army Officers, are truly making a difference for America and the world."

Excuse me while I keel over from the sheer, painful irony.

And hm. No wonder folks don't think much of U.S. students--the Army, supposedly home of our Best and Brightest, thinks Europe, Asia, and South and Central America are countries. Don't even get me started on the hash US involvement has made of countries in those areas. And notice how they forgot Africa, ne?

Now, I support our troops and all that jazz, but this recruiting stuff is more than somewhat ridiculous. And I'm seriously wondering if there were some qualities of mine that led to me getting this letter, or if all the seniors got one. Because the mind boggles trying to think of one: I'm kinda not fond of authority, I don't necessarily play well with others, and I'm over-educated to the point of crazy, which means I'm not going to believe whatever propaganda training crap I'd get fed. Which means I'd prolly get lynched in pretty short order. Plus- I'm a slasher. XD
