Picture of the Day: Aerial Refueling Drill
In this photo released by the South Korean Air Force on Feb. 21, 2023, a South Korean F-35A stealth fighter, nicknamed the Freedom Knight, is refueled by a KC-330 aerial tanker in a drill the same day. It marked the first time for the Air Force to have shown the advanced stealth fighter getting airborne refueling since it was deployed in December 2019. (Yonhap)
PICTURE OF THE DAY: AERIAL REFUELING DRILL
They really need to hire me as a military consultant.
I have lots of good ideas that could save time and money.
One example:
If fighters had a port on the top front that connected to the fuel tank, you could just use a pipe with some kind of connector to deliver fuel and not have to involve a drill.
Aerial Refuling Spigot really is more practical than Aerial Refuling Drill.
Also, the A-10 would sound cooler if the A was drawn out like the Fonz. Aaaaaaa-10.
So yeah I’m an idiot with no knowledge of military matters.
Funny CH. 🙂
(I mean, the real one who did the first post)
Who is ChickenHead’s new sock puppet? You’re not fooling anyone.
Those inbred CCP hillbilly bots are a riot, eh?
Just kidding.
There is no real ChickenHead.
Only setnaffa pretending to be ChickenHead. 🙂
More like the American hillbillies are a riot.
Well, Liz, the one trick ponies from Beijing are as misogynistic as their nose-picking leaders…
Could you do something about the fraud bots stinking up the forum, GI? 🙁
something about the fraud bots stinking up the forum, GI?
Interesting that liz or Liz would bring something like this up considering that she paricipated in the vaccine fake news spreading fest along with setnaffa.
But moving on.
It seems that the commenters of the ROK Drop can be categorized into four groups.
Koreans and/or those who live in Korea, are knowledgeable of Korea and usually comment about the core Korean issue at hand. That would be myself, KM, TOK, and Kevin Kim.
The Setnaffarians. Those who spend all day spreading fake news, misinformation and conspiracy theories, ranting about vaccines and labor unions and invest a significant effort into beautifying the buffon President and his over plastic surgeried wife. Not exactly the commenters that GI Korea would want but considering that they see eye to eye in regards to right wing views, GI Korea is probably leaving them alone. Not like the US leaving the Shah of Iran alone because he had lots of oil, was anti-Communist and bought a lot of US weapons.
The Rest of the Crowd. Those who come occasionally comment and leave.
And the Chinese.
They are our recent commenters.
But to be fair, the Setnaffarians bought it upon themselves when they used derogatory terms such as “chinabot” and “Chinaman” to describe those who oppose them and probably created some Chinese anger. No wonder why they are angry!
But as I said before I think the Setnaffarians are making up the identity stealing bots things and blaming it on the Chinese while lumping those who oppose them as “Chinese” as part of their efforts to get rid of those oppose them and dominate the ROK Drop for themselves.
And if liz or Liz really wants GI Korea to “get rid of the bots”, then maybe she should include herself and the Setnaffarians, considering the artificial and bot like style of her comments and the fact that she and the Setnaffarians use the ROK Drop to spread fake news, misinformation, and conspiracy theories, in addition to being ignorant of and rarely commenting on Korean issues.
Chinabot sez wut?
Obviously Korean Person is saying that setnaffa and his uhm clan are making up ludricous claims that we the Chinese stole their identities.
I myself find it intriguing that they are making up these claims.
However considering that they are losing when it comes to logical debates and are getting desperate to the point that they want to play victim with the hope of GI Korea obliging and blocking their opposition, it’s not surprising.
Hope that got through the thick skulls of the American hillbilles.
Accusations of chinabot only go to those promoting ideas harmful to Korea and America but helpful for China.
If you don’t want to be called a chinabot, be a clear Korean nationalist with a Korea-first mentality.
That is highly respectable.
Korea has a good thing going, and every Korean should strive to continue it.
Further observations:
– China is not getting a good return on investment with Tweedledumb and Tweedledumber yapping about whatever. The effort should be put into programs known to work… like buying politicians, universities, and boardmembers… and pushing global warming restrictions in the west while building coal powerplants… etc.
– The utility of stealing IDs and commenting is unclear. It doesn’t fool anyone and it doesn’t change anyone’s mind about anything. It can be (unintentionally) funny… but the laughter is directed at the chinabots… and they are being laughed at rather than laughed with.
I would like to retract my previous comment and take this opportunity to admit that this is part of a larger effort to create an opposition free space for those who agree with setnaffa.
Speaking of the depth of CCP hillbillies, they’re just pathetic:

“setnaffa and his uhm clan are making up ludricous claims that we the Chinese stole their identities”
I didn’t mention China.
I said stinking fraud bots. Chinese was your interpretation.
Since this thread has descended into chaos, just for you since you asked, Korean Twat:
In the past two days two orthopedic surgeons have mentioned they got SVT from the covid vaccines. One of those physicians has performed 7,000 spinal surgeries. People come from all over the world to see him. Not a neophyte or hillbilly. The other is the surgeon for some NFL players…also very highly respected in his field.
A friend of mine has neurological issues. Spoke to her yesterday and she told me her neurologist told her not to get any more boosters.
China needs to diversify… And that includes hiring talented trolls instead of just lazy spammers…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_iRCACd-Ex4
The Setnaffarians, when caught red handed, would resort to the method of throwing everything but the kitchen sink in an attempt to get out of the situation they got themselves into.
It’s good to see that some things never change. 😀
Was hoping C̝̬͓̪̹ͅh̪͍͈̝̻̳̣i͈̘c̺ken͇̺̣H̪͚͇͇e̺̖̣̠̲̩͍a̬͚d̼̪̥̩̟̣̯ would be challenging to cut and paste.
Better luck next time.
So… can I identify as Chinese?
…being that the Chinese identify as me, it seems legit.
And since I am now Chinese, I can’t be racist against myself, can I?
So no problem to say ching chong ding dong i eat rat head with sticks but hard to see with my little slit eyes while i do laundry and build railroad ching chong ding dong.
Do any of our chinabots have an opinion on this or will they refrain from criticizing a fellow chinaman?
Protip: If this offends anyone, keep in mind it could be a false flag by our local chinabots. Once identy becomes unclear, all sorts of possibilities exist.
with a Korea-first mentality.
Real Chicken Head or fake Chicken Head
How can you say that you have a Korea-first mentality when you and your master setnaffa acted upon orders from Russia and called for Korea to import coal from Russia and thus increase its dependence on Russia?
Korea should import coal from the most economic source possible while it expands the nuclear power industry, which will reduce reliance on anyone.
If Korea wants to maintain a high standard of living, cheap electricity is a necessary component.
Unlike Europe with a pipeline and few LNG terminals, forcing it to rely on Russia, Korea can accept coal ships from the lowest bidder.
It does not seem that Russia could easily create dependence.
Nice try, chinabot.
CH
You are just feeding the trolls.
Maybe you should stop here since you made your point.
If one needed evidence that the American hillbillies are brainless, look no further.
I said that not Korean Person or Korean Man.
But on the other hand what would I expect of someone who is brainless and thoughlessly spreads fake news and misinformation about vaccines like a lemming falling off a cliff.
It’s really quite oring now. Same lues repeated over and over; but it’s all Freudian projection from the chinabots.
I mean, couldn’t they spare one guy with talent for a few posts a month?
Is the CCP already that bankrupt?
Wasn’t me there, CH.
I’d never tell you to stop posting.
No CH.
The fake one is lying.
It’s me liz.
Well, it seems setnaffa wants out.
If you admit that you made a mistake of using the derogatory terms “chinabot” and “Chinaman”, repent, and promise never to use them again, I believe you will have some respite.
Always the same…
Always lame…
If only there was enough money left in the nose-picking CCP hillbilly budget to hire someone other than these canned-spam wannabee schmendricks…
I mean, GI manages to put on a super blog. It’s a great blog. There are a wide variety of topics. And there are a large number of actual (i.e., non-troll) posters in and out of South Korea—most of whom (chinabots excepted) either love living in South Korea, loved their time in the Land of the Morning Calm, spent time defending the RoK, or came over on business to help her economy.
It’s really not very manly of the CCP to attack GI’s blog with such gormless, feckless, and pusillanimous “running dogs and turtles.” Not manly at all.
But I guess they’ve spent all their money killing anyone with even a spark of originality, creativity, or imagination, so maybe I should just be thankful for what we’ve received. At least they’re not quoting Winnie verbatim.
I got 9 and a half inches of swinging meat and a hole is a hole.
Now you all have to guess if I am a chinabot or the Chicken Head.
Chinabot incels are fans of Unix, mistakenly thinking it was named after them.
No one is alliwed anything longer than Winnie’s Vienna Sausage.
Oh. I think I know why our trolls are so immature.

Anyone with a brain would have realized that the Koreans here do not have anything against the ROK Drop blog itself.
Although yes we have called out the owner of the blog, GI Korea for his blind support of the Yoon government which included looking the other way when it came to incompetence, abuse of power, and alleged corruption by his wife, and his intriguing thoughts about the Park impeachment, there was nothing personal against GI Korea and his blog.
So, I can only conclude that setnaffa is getting desperate and grasping for straws since he is losing the debate and being outed as a fake news and misinformation spreader and a racist to boot.
His desperation can be seen in his attempts to make it look like the Koreans are fighting against GI Korea and trying to make us the bad guys, when that is not the case, while at the same time glossing over the fact that setnaffa has used this blog to spread fake news and misinformation.
He has also glossed over his racist tendencies against Asians which included calling those Koreans who oppose him “chinabots”, even though none of the Koreans here have expressed any support for China or pro-China policies.
And to his credit, he has pissed off the Chinese, and it seems that until he “repents” they are here to stay.
Congratulations setnaffa for inviting the Chinese over. Real smart move.
Koreaman/Chinaman/Koreaperson,
I’m not sure what you expect to gain by showing up here and babbling pointless nonsense… but your expectations should be low.
Over the years, we have interacted with far more eloquent idiots than all of you.
They stay for a while and think they can mess things up. But we know how to deal with them.
In a war of attrition, we just keep on keeping on. We ignore them or make fun of them.
They grow bored of being ridiculed long before we grow bored of ridiculing them… and off they go.
And that’s what keeps it interesting around here.
Antiamericanism? USFK is an occupying force? Get whitey? Comfort women on Dokdo is Trump’s fault?
We have managed it all.
And we will continue to do so.
Chinabot, I don’t want you or your fellow inmates to leave. I just want your masters to invest in your education so you can be less lame, less infantile, and provide better entertainment. Or supply some erudite addition or replacement
Right now, all y’all do is parrot the talking points from Winnie’s Thots.
And your hatred of South Korea and South Koreans is too obvious. Look up “subtlety”. Learn it, practice it.
You should also learn from the real Liz and the real CH, and even Ole Tanker and Smokes (who we’ve probably chased away), as they can give you more tips on effective satire and actually having a sense of humor not based on hate.
You should certainly not learn from the many disgruntled incels (I will not name them; but they’re in the archives) who previously stained the carpet here. As you have been doing.
Think of it as a way to enhance your resume for when you get out of prison and need an actual job.
By the way, you might try reading more widely. Shakespeare, Kipling, Thoreau, and even Churchill wrote some great books. And used a much wider vocabulary than those you’re obviously relying on.
Best of luck, mate. You’re gonna need it. You’ve got a steep learning curve.
Don’t know about The Chinese, but KM and KP haven’t exactly said things that could be considered as “anti-South Korea”.
I will admit that their approach are abrasive but being abrasive is a trademark of South Koreans on both sides of the political spectrum who have strong opinions about their political beliefs.
TOK, you realize that you are dangerously close to being lumped into the same category with the smoothbrains.
The difference is that you are smart and generally right in your facts.
However, like them, you push some dangerous and destructive concepts.
I will point this out in detail as I come across examples to help everyone notice.
I see it’s the same old, same old here. Not that I expected anything different.
Well then, you can fuck off for another year.
Says one of the Trump Bots. Facts? What do Trumpeans care about or even know the meaning of “facts”?
Trump’s False Claim About Defense ‘Deal’ with South Korea – By Robert Farley
US Navy heads visit South Korea, eyeing South Korea’s shipbuilding industry to produce US Navy Ships.
It’s not just this. It’s also the critical semiconductors, EV batteries, and even more bullets for the US military, that the US needs Korea’s help in. US’s coming reliance on South Korea’s shipbuilding to keep up the race with China will be an interesting thing to watch – will the US also demand South Korean shipbuilders move their manufacturing operations to the US, in their attempt to make everything Made-in-America?
Maybe the US should stop treating South Korea like one of its colonies to use whenever the need arises and treated it with better respect if the US needs help with keeping up with China. Maybe that’s a better strategy than engaging in straight-up bullying, blackmail, and coercions. Hey, there’s an idea.
Well it seems Chicked Head aka setnaffa’s sockpuppet has on behalf of setnaffa verified what I have claimed all along.
Namely, calling those who do not agree with setnaffa, the racist slur, “chinabot” and attempting to push them out of the ROK Drop so that the Setnaffarians can have the ROK Drop all to themselves.
So setnaffa is saying that we should learn English?
Typical white man racism.
Looking down on Asians as not being fluent in English even when some Koreans like myself are fluent.
“calling those who do not agree with setnaffa, the racist slur, “chinabot” ”
Protip Checklist:
– before accusations of racism, know the difference between race and nationality to ensure the racism is not just self-manufactured and tearing you up in your own head causing you to spew needless hate where no hate existed
– dont fall into the trap of manufacturing racism to an audience that recognizes the lazy catch-all argument diverter of manufactured racism
– make sure the person you are crying about racism to actually cares what you think… a better tactic is to find something they do care about and focus on that instead of repeating failed tactics over and over simply because that is the only tool you have
– be careful of accusing someone of fake racism who likes to be accused of fake racism… they might have more fun than heartache which is counterproductive to your intention of watching the world burn
I realize your training (programming) is limited as an entry-level chinabot. Continuing education and daily practice is really your best pathway toward success.
This is not an easy job to spread hate and disorder. To some extent, you have to be born with the propensity and conditioned starting from a young age to truly succeed.
I will monitor your progess and continue to give you constructive criticism.
Hey Chickendead, I have a little bit of advice for ya.
Eschew prolixity.
Dang. Paintchip slammed the chinabots.
And the chinabots slammed themselves for using crappy English on an English-language blog.
If I wanted to go somewhere that used a language unfamiliar to me and try to accuse everyone of being racist, sexist, homophobic, or full of beans, I would do my best to use the language in the most effective way possible.
Since they’re non-creatives, all they have is projection and ad-hominem. And volume. They repeat their same, lame, poorly-written, predictable mistakes so often…
That dog don’t hunt.
My wife and her family in the US and Korea, not to mention our church, know my character. And I value their opinion.
CH over-praises me; but I appreciate his hyperbole.
Liz is one of the kindest folks here.
The bots? Well, I assume you’re all in a CCP work camp, forced to create dozens of feculescent posts a day to try to counter anyone or anythingbthat affects the pride of those nose-picking cretins in the CCP, so I don’t hate you.
In fact, the reading list I gave you was intended to helobyou crawl up from your pig-droppings into the sunlight, at least as far as the use of the English language is concerned.
If reading is too tough, then I give you three letters.

“Hey Chickendead, I have a little bit of advice for ya.
Eschew prolixity.”
I embrace loquaciousness¹.
¹I learned loquacious in middle school. I have never heard of prolixity. Will use. Can’t believe I have never been called that before. Thanks for the protip.
I wonder why setnaffa has trouble just admitting that he is a racist.
This seems to be a curious aspect of Southern whites. They act racists but are not willing to admit that they are racist.
Much like an alcoholic or drug addict who doesn’t want to admit that he/she has a problem.
“I have never heard of prolixity. “
Not surprised, but you know us English teachers. It’s all about stupid and boring stuff like reading and getting beyond the damage that the bros and sisbros have done to the English language.
Shiznitz? WTF is that?
Sisbro. I love that word. Call a 250 pound 5′ 8″ black girl wearing pajama pants at Walmart a sisbro and watch the reaction. It’s f&cking priceless.
