    Plot twist, I binge ate to become fat to avoid conscription.

    Weird thing is, South Korean military recruitors are looking for me for some reason, maybe I’m still not fat enough?

      I’m a disabled veteran and still get calls from recruiters. They are basically salesmen doing cold calls

            Ok I would be down to just turn my hearing aids lower and lower in response lol. The funny thing to me is I’m not much deafer then they make people. I just come pre deafened and they can’t have that. It’s like if the marines wouldn’t take anyone who bought a car they can’t afford and cheats on their girlfriend, like fair enough but I’ve met y’all it’s strange to insist you be the ones to get people to this state.

        I feel bad for recruiters. Someone has to do it but they get shit from everyone.

          They’d get less shit from everyone if they weren’t predatory liars about it.

          They’re being paid to get shit. It would be a disservice to them if you didn’t provide the shit.

      You just have to get fat enough that they can see how fat you are, on the news.

      Yeah, there’s a legal requirement for Korean citizens to serve in the military. My SO is Korean, and that’s why my kids aren’t Korean citizens…

      Good luck! Eat some more fast food.
