Why do some people (pk) believe they will appear more impressive by inflating the importance of a previous job?
Ridiculously pathetic.
We must not confuse dissent with disloyalty. We must remember always that accusation is not proof and that conviction depends upon evidence and due process of law. We will not walk in fear, one of another. We will not be driven by fear into an age of unreason, if we dig deep in our history and our doctrine, and remember that we are not descended from fearful men. Edward R. Murrow
The object of life is not to be on the side of the majority, but to escape finding oneself in the ranks of the insane. ~ Marcus Aurelius“It's a beautiful thing, the destruction of words.”
― George Orwell, 1984
“The urge to shout filthy words at the top of his voice was as strong as ever.”
― George Orwell, 1984

I think he was intimidated by some of the other veterans here that had more 'prestigious' jobs or assignments while he spent his enlistment during the wars in an overseas coffee shop. Then these political threads started and he wanted a way to play up his credentials, so he started talking about his supposed "background" in government and journalism while dropping hints about sources and contacts and secret squirrel stuff.
To be clear, I'm not giving him shit because I think being a videographer is lowly or something (it's not, if he wasn't a fuckup he could have turned that into a bank civilian career), but because of the way he's talking up his experience into something it wasn't.
