Fuck you @Whack-a-Mole, you stupid fuck! Yes I fucking know that the Iowa’s received cruise missiles and other upgrades as part of their modernization in the 1980s. As I’ve tried to tell you nicely, I was a mother fucking Surface Warfare Officer in the United States mother fucking Navy for fourteen mother fucking years and I have forgotten more about naval warfare than you will ever know you, STUPID MOTHER FUCKING TROLL.

FUCK OFF.

Thanks folks, I needed that.

ETA: Oh, and with that, I have muted that thread because you are clearly not worth the time and energy. Though maybe I should just ignore you instead, in case others with serious questions/comments want to have a discussion. We’ll see, I guess.
