I have a bit of a problem with making light of hunting down other human beings. That it is necessary and that the military does so is acceptable and understood by me but to make a joke about it seems rather morbid and tasteless.

YMMV

Just curious about this little expression here, "YMMV."  I can't figure out what it stands for.  "YVMV" would make more sense to me?

YMMV is "your mileage may vary", it is a disclaimer for advertised car mileage figures from the mfg.

what is YVMV?

Just out of curiosity but, did you even watch the video. it has nothing to do with the military or what they do.

Yes Cypher, I watched a little more than half of it. Though it was speaking of hunting, the setting was similar to what I have seen where military snipers are killing insurgents in Afghanistan.  

It was the premise that I found distasteful. It sounded like a hunting show one sees on TV but humans were the target. I saw that as being demeaning.

Like I mentioned in my post: YMMV ( Your Mileage May Vary )

If hunting humans is bad, why is AH still in operation? Box games take the other "human" out of the equation in game play but the premise in a wargame is all the same. Hunting other humans.

Funny clip.

Humor is very personal. To each his own. I didn't think it funny.

I beleive that posting in this thread was a waste of my time and yours (all)
