    This screams boot to me, lol. I bet you they financed it at something ridiculous too.

    Is there an r/JustBootThings on Lemmy or Kbin? Some of the shit on there was hilarious.

      I said the same thing. My ex-husband was military (though not boot at all) and you could absolutely find this truck in the px parking lot. Probably driven by a 20 year old with a kid and a pregnant wife who goes shopping off base in his uniform solely so people will thank him for his service.

        We were all boots once. Some of us grew out of it.

        Boot is a derisive term, in this case it’s referring to young inexperienced people fresh out of boot camp. The mindset refers to doing trashy and/or foolish things usually coupled with a strong sense of entitlement (“thank me for my service!”).

        Not sure who downvoted you, nothing wrong with asking questions to learn stuff.

        Something typical of a person fresh out of boot camp.

          Pogue. The word is Pogue. As in Pogie Bait.

          POG is a backronym and must be obliterated with prejudice.
