    Remember folks, US military deserters are cool and good.

    Who wants to be marching around swamp ass D.C. getting swamp ass wearing those polyester fatigues? Wouldn’t you rather be chillin’ in flip flops eating some ice cream?

      no joke. DC is brutal in the summer. I’m from the deep south and used to work an outdoor physical job in that shit. I remember being like “how bad can it be?” as I was there for a multi day work meeting and had a day off to take the metro in and museum hop. I was cooked from walking around outdoors by like 3pm. heavy ass, still swamp air, sun frying everything. when people complain about DC in the summer, it’s no joke.
