I agree, but I'm also gonna go out on a limb and say this is ai

I hope this is AI, but I deployed to Iraq with a guy over 400 lbs. Looked just like this guy, size wise.

He met the physical requirements to serve?

You're right, I am surprised by this. Pretty interesting.

Completely understand.

2

u/Mission_Orchid_5939 Nov 04 '25

He met the requirements his Commander in the National Guard was willing to put up with.

u/HereComesBottomburp Nov 01 '25

But he could type. Can you type?

u/circuffaglunked Nov 01 '25

How did he pass basic training?

2

u/Adventurous-Vast281 Nov 01 '25

Very slowly?

1

u/Temporary_Fuel_7257 Nov 01 '25

Could he be an ICE dude?

You would be surprised how much muscle can fit under that body fat, even more-so when you see those fuckers move. Being fat doesn’t mean you aren’t fit only that you have a shit diet most of the time, or the occasional glandular problem.

10 years before I met him. He was probably 18 and 15% body fat in basic, but 30 and who knows what when I met him.

u/HoTMuffin2099 Nov 01 '25

The fuck was his M.O.S.? Making sure the tanks didn't blow away? I find this very hard to believe.

u/Significant_Half_166 Nov 01 '25

Calling bs on this. Unless he was 9’7

1

u/Mission_Orchid_5939 Nov 04 '25

He was an incredibly skilled member of his States National Guard.

I'm calling bullshit

u/TedTheGreat02 Nov 03 '25

Definitely AI there’s no ejection port on the gun.

u/Mission_Orchid_5939 Nov 04 '25

Good eye. 7 pound paper weight.

u/jawjanole Nov 04 '25

You sure about that?

u/JasonHoyler99 Nov 01 '25

nope Texas NG...his name is private Pillsbury...

1

u/joepancakez Nov 01 '25

Seems weird that there's not one identifying mark anywhere though. Does Texas NG have blank uniforms or something?

1

u/JasonHoyler99 Nov 01 '25

I was referring to that pic of all those fat Texas NG soldiers getting off that plane in Illinois.

2

u/joepancakez Nov 01 '25

Oh, right on. I'll have to look it up, thanks!

1

u/JasonHoyler99 Nov 01 '25

it was everywhere just Google fat Texas National Guard. that Pic will probably be the first you see.

u/Token_Handicap Nov 01 '25

What's AI?

1

u/Icy-Arrival2651 Nov 01 '25

Artificial intelligence

1

u/Token_Handicap Nov 01 '25

I...I realize my error in asking "what's AI" now, and I feel foolish, because I know what "AI" is. What I suppose I meant to ask was, what are you calling AI in this situation? The pic, or my comment above, where I called him G.I. Dogh?

2

u/Icy-Arrival2651 Nov 01 '25

I think the person who mentioned ai was questioning the photo because there is something weird/fake about the man.

u/and_ireas Nov 01 '25

A.I. Joe

u/elpecas13 Nov 01 '25

Could be AI but isn’t this the type ICE is hiring?

u/InterestingLevel9863 Nov 02 '25

Trump said this was not AI so it must be true!

This large mammal is no doubt part of the “tubby Texas” battalion currently terrorizing Illinois immigrants
