This is likely his reason for everything.
Maybe I should tell him how many of "my people" died saving his "buddies" lives...

You're parents Vietnamese? If so, the potential to fuck with him is limitless...

Be VERRRRY careful with that...there are many of us who still haven't forgotten...nor forgiven...I know quite a few Vietnam vets who believe the war isn't over, it's just in "intermission" and would resume hostilities in the drop of a hat.
(besides, he just might tell you how many of your family he killed and or fucked while he was there...and be right!)

That's a pretty stupid reason to go to Vietnam. You don't win wars by getting shot, you win by shooting the other guy.
It's even dumber to go to Vietnam and get shot at in the hopes of getting admin rights on a PC 35 - 40 years in the future.

It sounds like a genius plan to me. Don't make me bring up the movie The District again.

But i could be wrong.

No, the computer belongs to the Admin, just like all of the computers there.

I can attest to that.
