I used to work at a veterans centre. I’ll never understand how they’re all traumatized and sensitive about their war experience, yet they’re surrounded by war paintings on every wall

The sound brings them an adrenaline rush and they think someone may be actively trying to kill them.

For example a war vet was driving me and someone set off firecrackers. He ducked down under the steering wheel and I had to talk him back up. Took a couple minutes with the car stopped in the middle of a busy street to start coming out of survival mode.

I used to get jumpy during fireworks and it didn’t go away until the last 10 years or so. I grew up during a Marxist/capitalist civil war, we used to live close to a military hospital, so you could hear mortar and air defences to try and keep the guerillas away from the area. Mortars sound surprisingly similar to some fireworks. Also so many helicopters, it was hard to sleep undisturbed.

I guess because the war paintings are general and don't depict their buddy with his body split open and entails scattered all over.

Shitlibs only pretend to care about traumatized veterans (many of whom are probably busy shooting off fireworks) because of their neurotic dog coddling agenda 🎆

About this community and how I post the comics… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. Of course these days you can read your favorite comics online instead of a newspaper, but I love the nostalgia of reading the daily comics. Anyway, one of my favorite current comics is Cyanide and Happiness and I will be posting the daily release from their website (https://explosm.net/) and a an extra or two randoms.
