I thought this place was for jokes. Why is there an infographic?
I’m in a band that performs on occasion at CFBs (Canadian Forces Bases). We typically eat there and spend the night either in barracks or guest housing.
I have noticed that when we play for officers, dinner is like steak and lobster. When we play for enlisted, it’s more like high school cafeteria. The one and only time I had to excuse myself towards the end of a concert and miss the closing number was after eating at the enlisted mess and getting explosive diarrhea.

I guess they’re training their soldiers for biological warfare.
I suppose it is a kind of survival training? One of my bandmates who’s served came up after. “So here’s the deal. You watch what everyone else is eating. If they’re meticulously avoiding the peach cobbler or whatever it is, you F’ing stay away from that S if you know what’s good for you!”
I know from my wife that food in the CAF varies wildly from base to base. Some places are pretty good, others are dogshit.
It’s so nice to see Comic Sans actually being used for its intended purpose.
Yes it actually looks great in the correct context, tbh.
There are extensions to put it on all web pages
It’s easier to read for dyslexics and those with brain injuries
Like, your browsers font settings.
Hey, my dad was a Marine and I take great offense at the suggestion that he ate crayons. He served in Vietnam; they smoked crayons, thank you very fucking much.
how does that, er, work, exactly
In an emergency situation a crayon can burn for up to an hour.
What about the Space Force?
Red bull and a cigarette.
While running around doing a karaoke version of Blur Song 2.
This image is great, thanks
So the space force is just a bunch of line cooks?
Overworked server monkeys and sysadmins.
Hey, that’s what my son lives off of, and he’s a civilian.
They’re air force. So the air force section. Red Bull and a cigarette is the Grunt’s dinner.
Definitely freeze dried astronaut food.
That shit is delicious. Every time we went to some kind of space-related museum growing up I would bug the shit out of my parents until they got some for me. I felt so freaking cool eating it.
I always look for these in tourism destination gift stores. I love them!
What does it taste like?
Space ice cream! Seriously, it tastes like Neapolitan ice cream, without any of the liquid, and without being cold.
They stole other services bases mostly and aren’t even able to fully staff yet. They are either using the previous infrastructure or just leeching off of whatever base they are on.
Blue jello.
What’s going on in the navy?
They’re schlorping schlongs.
Where do we sign up?!
Was a submariner, can confirm.
It’s an age old running “joke” they are gay and effeminate, hence the female looking person gobbling a sausage.
I see. First though was maybe I should have joined the navy but now…maybe I should have joined the navy.
What’s gay to civilians is brotherhood in the Army. What’s gay to the Army is brotherhood in the Navy. What’s gay to the Navy is illegal.
Situational sexuality.
I remember a recent convo (last ten years) regarding an elderly British couple talking about the rise of LGBT+ issues in politics,
HUSBAND: It’s actually refreshing to see the young people openly talking about it. WIFE: I don’t think we’ve ever known anyone like that. Do we? HUSBAND: Dear, I was in the navy for ten years.
If you think about it, it’s very much a thing in parochial schools as well.
Yeah I don’t think pink hair is allowed
2201
- HAIR
(a) Men
Hair coloring must look natural.
(b) Women
Styles with shaved portions of the scalp (other than the neckline), those with designs cut, braided, or parted into the hair, as well as dyed using unnatural colors are not authorized.
So only if you can find someone in the wild with naturally-pink hair.
natural albino?
homophobia
Hot
No kink shaming!
Sucking dicks is homophobic now?
come on man, I don’t have to explain this, you’re smart enough to understand the cultural and societal heritage here.
“Sucking cocks is my heritage”
My dad was in the coast guard. I’ll ask.
The Vietnam vets I knew from the US army talked about the weirdly green gravy which was good, just green.
And a WWII Navy vet stationed on a carrier said the food was fine, but it was all piled on top of each other.
Food in the US military
Is this actually credible?
No. The CIA isn’t military.
The CIA isn’t acting in the interest of the united states either, but still here we are
Y’all are silly the CIA isn’t actually real
It’s allowed, to establish the Coast Guard’s source.
Coast Guard’s source
Pretty sure it’s the other way around. The Coast Guard is intercepting shipments of them and the CIA is snorting them.
100 percent. Just never mix Army and CIA. It spawns a level 5 entity that the black helicopter guys have to take care of.
Eat raw wheat flour yeah 🤤
Tsampa!
I personally didn’t mind army food. I would love some navy food tho :3
Me: looks at the meme, then looks at you comment

What is the difference usmc and the navy? Honest question.
If you ask a Marine they’ll confirm that they’re a department of the Navy, but then qualify it as “the men’s department” before devolving into a yut-fest
Well, they often enjoy eating a variety of crayons, for one?
USMC is an independent branch, but does serve under the Navy. They used to be completely independent, until they were placed under the Navy in 1834.
Different responsibilities, roles, training, structure, culture, etc… but they still report to the secretary of the Navy.
I wanna know what Navy Seals eat
Most seals subsist on fish, but depending on the species they may also eat crustaceans, krill, or penguins
Seals. It’s in the name.
Don’t they use Marines to man the brig on ships?
Not sure where I heard that, so could totally be talking out my ass here.
Historically, yes. The Marines were responsible for discipline on the ship, including arresting sailors, guarding the officers, and manning the brig.
Easy, the navy flies the big boats and the USMC get set loose to weed out a country’s crayon supply.
Water? Idk
From what I heard while joining the marines were originally the ones that would defend the crew of military vessels.
Like in old ship combat if your ship was boarded the marines were the ones fighting them off.
This was def made by a Buckethead, you know who you are
Is this sfw?
They’re just eating hot dogs perfectly normally and enjoying sugar. Get your mind outta the gutter
Is being covered in Miracle Whip® sfw?
Heavens no, that’s disgusting. Use Mayonnaise or ice cream instead.
It’s SFW if you’re crossing the Equator?
Lmao hot dogs and miracle whip name a more wholesome and totally socially acceptable combination that I totally didn’t miss
