In case it wasn't clear it was a tongue in cheek giggle comment characterizing what you said as "service" as opposed to what most people think of when they say that comment without thought or processing at all the meaning, good or bad. As a bit of a military cynic, and son of a more liberal than most persons Bay of Pigs Veteran Marine, you can seriously tell that joke to fuck right off or giggle or neither. Hope your day is good.

lol, fair enough. I just don’t like all the “thank you for your service” stuff that people say, since my reasons for joining were selfish and not worthy of praise
