I was abroad for years working.

What's this a euphemism for?

And what a poisonous forum persona "Johnnylongwoody" was! Gosh.

No more poisonous than you.

I think you are mistaken about that.

Oh cool, what were you doing?

I was in the middle east with the military.

Not that it's any of your business.

I didn't sign on for any longer.
My 21 years are up.

I’m replying to what you wrote about yourself.

Posting something about yourself then getting all snippy and furtive when someone shows some interest in what you’ve said is a little odd.

You joined the British military?

It's difficult to know when you are being snide or polite.

I was a language specialist.
But that's it now. My 21 years are done.

I didn't want any more of it.
It's horrible out there.
Even with a side arm I don't feel safe.

One of your side arms too.
A Browning 9 mm.
13 in the magazine although no one ever puts 13 in.

No. Irish.
Part of UN.

Was that the weapon you were supposedly keeping your last two bullets for ~ for me and divegeester?

Lol. Unlike WW2,
I can't bring it home with me so you are safe for now.

You do remember saying that then?

Nothing worse than angry quartermaster.

Sorry. I try to be as transparent as I can. To be clear then:

- I think it funny when people come back with a different username but behave exactly as they did before, as you have. It’s harmless forum banter.
- I did find you to be quite an unpleasant character when you were here before
- I am genuinely interested is your experiences in the military
- you did threaten to shoot me and FMF, which is not a cool thing to say and rather odd for someone used to carrying a firearm in the military.
- I think you need to lighten up a bit

That’s it.

But you were a “language expert”...

I can be as lighthearted as can be if not trolled.
