My pathetic life...

I just started watching Renaissance Man and can't help squeeing over the fact that it was filmed at Fort Jackson, where I went to Basic Training. I keep seeing things and places that I remember, and can't help yelling, "I've been there! I've done that!" And then, because I've been so brainwashed, the inevitable outburst of, "They can't do that! The Drill Sargents would never let that happen!" follows.
Is it rather sad to anyone else that my idea of a fun Friday night is to pop some popcorn, have a soda, and watch a movie?

Lol! I think I'm doomed from hereon out to forever watch military movies with the running commentary of "that's wrong," "why are they doing that?" and "I wish we could do that!" going through my mind.

But you appreciate military movies that get it right that much more.
