    This is surprisingly close to how my Great-Grandfather avoided getting drafted into the first World War. He stayed home for a week and only drank alcohol and smoked cigarettes non-stop. When he showed up to the draft office looking like a zombie they turned him away pretty much instantly. He was a pretty healthy dude aside from that.

    Kid, take care of yourself.

    If I didn’t get drafted filing my selective service registration a week after 9/11, you have nothing to worry about.

    Sounds like you might have an anxiety disorder you need addressed tho.

    Edit: Fun Tik Tok trend.

    Ask US men what they were thinking as they filled out that selective service post card.

    Also, ask US women what they were thinking as they filled out their selective service post card.

    If done right, shit going VIRAL.

    Obviously I’ve got virtually nothing to go on, but I’m going to guess that Anon is saying “avoiding the draft” when actually they’re unable/unwilling to admit that they’re depressed… or perhaps the possibility of depression hasn’t even occurred to them.
