Stolen Valor-
1) When a civilian who was never military, therefore never earned the rights and privileges associated with the honor of wearing the uniform, wear one due to any of the following reasons:
A.To get discounts or free services/drinks, etc at stores or cafes.
B. They are trying to attract the attention of the opposite sex, or they just want people's attention and thanks.
2) When a real soldier wears decorations and devices, and ranks that they never earned. For example, a real U.S. Army Private could easily give himself the Medal of Honor by looking it up online and buying one.
Most of the time, civilians have no idea how to properly wear the uniform. This includes stringent grooming and uniform standards not being followed (i.e. long beards, wearing covers indoors, tucking in blouses, wrong undershirts), putting patches in the wrong places, mixing different patches, ranks/rates (i.e. wearing PO3 ranks on an Army Uniform while claiming to be a PFC), not having an I.D. card or mixing information (i.e. saying they are Army but trained at Parris Island and Penelton,) or wearing the wrong uniforms or wearing it incorrectly(i.e. wearing the M.C.C.U.U off base or using the outdated Battle Dress Uniform) Oftentimes, these create hilariously inaccurate results, such as a person claiming to be a Marine Gunnery Sergeant wearing an ACU with M81 camo scheme, Airborne and Ranger tabs, a SEAL device, and ribbons on a Utility uniform.

Get the Vapour Lock mug.A horrible game which tries way to hard for people to take it seriously. The ranked mode matchmaking makes it impossible to have fun with your friends. The game also likes to not acknowledge that people have different skill levels and by skill level I mean they happened to get a lower rank in placements due to meaningless rng . This game is vile in every way it can be. Most people play this game because they probably cant get higher then gold. Riot games is also common for releasing un finished agents which they clearly haven't tested before hand. If you can't get higher than plat in this game your most likely also bad at csgo which also means you shoulds stop playing fps games and get on a moba like league of legends of hero of the storm. There is also a 38% chance the average valorant player used to play overwatch or csgo. There is a 80% chance the player base paid for their overpriced cosmetics. This game makes fortnite look generous with their skins. 99% chance riot games will drop this game due to the decline in player base.
