123 main support battalion

The 123 msb is part of the 1 armored division in the us army in dexheim, Germany. It is the crappiest unit in the entire military, with only a hand full of good people in it. It is filled with the most rasict black people in the army who think that the army is a black army. It is also filled with Masons, who think that they're the best thing since sliced bread. They're only out to help out their own kind.
In this unit a non-commisioned officer can inflict pain upon a soldier than year later get promoted, I guess the supply room is as close as you can get to the commander's asshole. This unit is filled with the most racist, nasty son-of a bitches in the army, it's like they just can't die their stupid asses never get sent to Iraq. Please Mr secutary of defense lay off of the rest of the army send 123 in to the front lines so the the terrost can finally do something helpful.

123 main support battalion is the shit hole of the army.

soldier: Hey Dad I've done great things for my country.

dad: What's that son???

soldier: I got a real good tan over in the salon, now my chain-of-command thinks I'm black. My promotable status is about to kick in on my next L.E.S.

dad: That's great son I always knew you had it in you.

Community Support Officer 

A British answer to the American Rent-a-cop.

However, CSO's have virtually no power. Apparently they can detain people for 30min until the real coppers arrive.

Also known as Chav Wranglers

Those chavlings got moved on by a CSO.

Tech support syndrome 

When an issue in a computer seems to be fixed when you are on the phone with tech support, but as soon as you are off the phone, the issue comes back full fledged.

Britney: Is your computer fixed?
Alyssa: No, its acting weird still.
Britteny: Wasn't it working when you were on the phone with John before today?
Alyssa: Yes, but its not working anymore. It stopped working as soon as we hung up.
Britteny: I guess your computer has tech support syndrome.
Alyssa: Yeah.

beer support group 

A euphemism taken from the term peer support group. Simply means a group of people that you drink beer with. Especially a group of people that seem to gravitate towards the heavy side of drinking. Most likely a support group of borderline alcoholics, helping each other cope with life's challenges by drinking.

Stacey: Can you come out to dinner tonight?

Dan: Nah... gotta drop in on the old beer support group..

Stacey: Awww.... I'm so proud of you. It's nice to have a boy friend that gives back to the community.

Dan: I know.... it isn't always easy but my brothers need me... (opens a beer)

Stacey: mmwahh
