I got high and watched one of those "Breakdown" videos on YouTube where they have an "expert" come on and review movie scenes and such.

It was an ex-Marine talking about boot camp scenes in movies, and they got to Jarhead and talking about Gyllenhaal being transferred to the squad who just got back from a tour and they held him down to brand him.

I had a panic attack and swore from that moment that I would never join the military industrial complex. I know that's a very specific situation and all, but it still elicited such an explicit response in me.
