How To Spot A Snowflake - Stop Wearing Headbands Dammit

Post by Crab_Spider » 06 Jul 2017, 23:59

Recently, people have began to think it's a good idea to wear a headbang, USCM cap, beret, any kind of non-protective gear (including insulated gloves you fucking powergamers) rather than their issued armour. Why is this a problem? Because xenos now have the ability to kill Marines with greater ease. I don't metatarget, but I will teach people valuable lessons, and that lesson is to WEAR YOUR DAMN GEAR LIKE AN ACTUAL MARINE WOULD! Anyway... people have begun to adopt this mindset from the removal of hugger combat, and because we all know that was a daydream, we took off our protective gear and paraded our shitty heads to the xenos... this is an artistic depiction of this phenomenon

Image

As you can see — The Marine has decided to ditch all his gear and resort to the shittiest tool in his arsenal ; a bayonet. The Xeno does not tolerate this asinine behavior and decides to cut off the Marine's manhood as he is most powerless without it. It becomes clear the Marine is going to die, but he still tries to taunt the xeno into pussying out, which backfires. This is what happened to that Marine :

http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-OiTFEoSZi84/U ... 600/35.jpg

Yes, that's right. The Marine did not even stand a chance with that Xeno, and assumed that conventional firearms would stop that Xeno from tearing him limb from limb. That Xeno had a healing factor, however, this is what happened 4 issues after this event :

Image As you can see, the Marine has taken proper precautions against the Xeno, proving once and for all your armor will make you a genocide machine.


So how do you spot a Mary Sue on the battlefield? That's easy. First, you become an Elite Xeno of any kind. Hunter is much more preferable as you can keep them pinned down and cut off their hands or feet, or break their skulls. Hell, you might as well slash into their exposed chest and prove why their armour is what stops Xenos from aiming for the chest. Next, you look for whatever makes them worthy of punishment.

Snowflakes will always have an emote gimmick, a piece of worthless vanity, or a nickname, or just a name that makes them sound like they're supposed to be a stripper. (*cough*Sapphire please just change your name and have that as your nickname...*cough*) Hell, sometimes, snowflakes will grab a shotgun, with a gyro and mag harness attached to it. This symbolizes their pitiful desire to never melt, however, that is inevitable as they will always be killed; either by FF or Xenos. If they have the nickname "Buckshot", then he's clearly a snowflake, but luckily he melts as easily as his chances to play CM, so don't worry about him too much.

Remember, snowflakes have these traits, DON'T EVER FORGET THEM!
  • Wearing a beret - they believe that their beret will make them honourary Marines, and thus, this belief must be met with the true word of Atheism.
  • Wearing a headband - They're on strike for dying. This symbolizes a mutiny, and mutinies are punishable by death.
  • Any kind of edgy nickname - Kill them as quickly as possible.
  • Trying to ERP - Ahelp this now and then kill them. This is clearly them having sexual relationships in the military and therefore them trying to turn CM into a harem anime. DON'T LET CM TURN INTO SAO!
  • Their name is Bill Carson - Bill Carson is not a snowflake, however he has proven his ability to be able to turn our Headstaff into attractive men, therefore he must be punished before we admit our love for them
  • They are wearing sandals - cut their feet off and then drag them to the nearest Marine where that Marine will learn the ultimate lesson of not being a snowflake
  • No matter how much logic is shoved in their faces, they refuse to melt. This is a clear indicator they are idiots and idiots are snowflakes and therefore they must melt.
  • They show a lack of belief in our God Staff. This is a Christian Server, show those heretic heathens a lesson about being an Atheist Heathen Scum like John 'Buckshot' Rhodes.
  • They main MP.
  • And finally --- They wear insulated gloves as Squad Engineer, or latex gloves as medic, or either as any combat role — these are the pinnacle of losing a hand.
    These gloves provide no protection, and therefore you should take the set you need.
I personally have become any caste I could to make these kinds of snowflakes melt. I've become a ravager to decapitate John Murry, a Hunter to break the chest of Joseph Murta, and I become a Hunter again to decapitate Cliff Campell, Rusty Wheeler, Noah Werner, and some other engineer I forgot the name of. Don't be like these people, especially Rusty Wheeler, and his accomplice, Oslaa Wooki, who I have yet to kill because of his Santa powers.
You will never be as bad as the baldie who picked up a tactical shotgun while a hunter was pouncing on top of a CMO for 4 seconds, with his only response being to pace around before being decap'd by said hunter. You are not Brett Kimple, and you never will be. You are not the reason why I regular MP.

Lol what? I can't wear a beret if I feel like it even though like Aliens only the throw away characters wore the helmets. Except your boy Hudson.
TBH I can't tell if this Ironic or legit. Also TBH how would a helmet even help you? Like in WW2 the helmets were basically buckets, and if your helmet got shot and you didn't die you were a lucky son'of'a bitch. I would think the same for the Colonial Marines. I mean the PMCs for Christ sake don't even wear helmets. And they're fucking Private Military Contractors for Weyland-Yutani.

contractors don't usually wear helmets

also helmets aren't really supposed to protects against bullets but instead environmental hazards and shrapnel

Armor in CM can't defend you from a paper cut, much less bullets.

You're retarded.
You're a snowflake.

As a piece of information, some special forces actually wear berets at combat because they attach too much pride in it and believe the red colour symbolizing paratroopers scare enemies. Also bantterly named 'kevlar berets', works with the foreign legion (less than para tho).

If my vanity gets me killed, then I guess it's my own fault. It is my choice to pick unusual items such as the USCM hat or the black boots instead of the marine ones. Everyone does it deliberately, in case you haven't noticed - and if you don't like it, it's your own problem.

I have yet to discover why some specific people get so upset over a 2D spessmen game to the point where they have to write elaborate, pointless rants on the forums.
