An idiot who pretends to be a Navy SEAL, but never was one. Some
phony SEALs do it to impress chicks at a bar, and others do it because they want everyone in their life to believe that they were a Navy SEAL.
Usually, the
type of person who does this had a less than glorious
job in the Military. Many haven'
t even served in the Military at all.
Real SEALs are humble about their jobs, and do go around bragging about being one.
Phony SEALs are the opposite. They can't wait to tell someone that they're a Navy SEAL, and
will go on with endless bullshit stories about it. They
like the "ooo and aaahh" reactions that people give them. They want to intimidate people and get respect. All because they're not winners, and never did anything notable in real life to earn any respect in the first place.
"Hi, my name's John
Smith, I'm a Navy SEAL and I've done a lot of ""black
ops"" in foreign countries and killed a ton of people!"
"What class were you?"
"My what?"
"Your
BUD/S Class....?"
"20 Bravo Delta 1"
"You fucking idiot, you're a Phony Navy SEAL! Now I'm going to smash your face in!!"
