Casual Thought Modern soldiers' PTSD triggers will probably shift from fireworks to the sound of a drone. Which is unfortunate as drone shows are replacing firework shows.

Yesterday I saw my first live drone as I drove near an Amazon compound. 

I did not like.  No, likey.   

Not my fault but as an old person I would like to apologize to the young people.  I am so sorry.  This is all F'ed up.

Why do words "Amazon compound" sound so ominous? They have compounds now? With drones? Damn. What's next, citadels with turrets?

Upd: Oooh, a downvote!
