Seanachai Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 No, I typed the word "happier" I realize that you are four foot two and a half so its difficult to see the monitor. We both know where you can put your Doctor Phil advice there, gramps. I would explain the sort of joy when my baseball team wins but that would be beyond your comprehension insofar as you remain a frag with no sense of sports or man-stuff. No, I won't delve into being happy with a woman either because of your monastic bibliophile life. Be glad I'm taking all of this time not explaining what I meant by "happier" So, you've mastered verb conjugations. I'm proud of you, lad. I remember all the occasions when I told you: Give it time. Eventually, even you will be able to use English as though you were a native speaker, and not like someone from New Jersey. Er...one point, though. What's a 'frag'?

Seanachai Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Penultimately, no one dances the Macarena any more, Mr. Hep Cat Type Person. A little charity, Boo. Stuka is not only an Australian, he's also living in the Middle East. When he left Australia, given the Western Civilization Differential Adjusted for Aussie Time Modifier, his country had basically reached the same level of social, political and cultural development as America in the 1970s. And he now lives in a place that is basically a Medieval Disney World with cell phones, computers and stoning women to death for revealing their faces. Knowing about a 30 minute, flash in the pan cultural sub-phenomenon like the Macarena is, for Stuka, rather like what being able to recite the works of Shakespeare from memory is for someone like you and I. And I don't think we should mock him for that. He's doing the best he can, the plucky little wombat that he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Emrys Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Er...one point, though. What's a 'frag'? An operational order. Though what that conceivably might have to do with Hiram's post escapes me. Perhaps it was at that point that he paused to re-light the joint and lost his train of thought.

Michael Emrys Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Wouldn't the leg warmers cover the nose thereby although assisting with blood circulation rather hamper respiration? That wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing. Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Emrys Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Could you hear "Oh Fortuna" being played quite loudly? Possibly the funniest and most apt thing you've ever posted. Which means it rates about a 3 on a scale of 1-10. Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berlichtingen Posted October 14, 2008 Author Share Posted October 14, 2008 Er...one point, though. What's a 'frag'? Intentional 'friendly fire' Allow me to give you an example. Say, for the sake of this, you and I are on the same side in a war and I happen to see you're in the next foxhole over. Now, if I were toss a grenade into your foxhole, and probably yell something along the lines of, "Charlie's in the wire!" In this situation, you would have been fragged. Get it?

Fragging as it was done in the last war...that's the one before this current one. Was performed with class. It was never done in the heat of combat....if someone was f$%$ed up enough to deserve fragging, it was usually done in the rear base camp by rolling a grenade into the victim's personal area, or dropping one into the latrine while the poor arse hole was taking a crap. Never witnessed one personally...never had really bad leadership either...so that's probably why. Maybe it was all just legend, like one of Seanachai's tales.

Joe Shaw Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Nonsense, Lars couldn't win in a game of Russian Roulette using an automatic ... mind you I'd be for him trying. My company, may all blessings and profits flow to it, actually put me up in a SHERATON in Denver, actually two of them though the second one I'm in now isn't all that great. The last time I saw Berli in person he had a beard so I was a bit taken aback when this shaved apparition in a white, wide brimmed straw plantation hat and, I'm not joking, a long olive drab duster waved at me from the lobby. It was soon apparent that he was, indeed, our own Olde One in the flesh and none to happy to be in Denver let me tell you. He even suggested that perhaps in a couple of years he might pull up stakes and move to ... wait for it ... ManyAppleLess! Yikes! The thought of Seanchai, dalem, Lars, Papa Khann and now Berli in the same town ... well it sends shivers down the spine so it does. But I digest ... Berli and I had a delightful burger and beer and shared reminisences of the OLDE DAYS when CessPudlians were CessPudlians and not the puddles of dreck we have here now. All the olde names came up, Mark IV, Chupacabra, Meeks, Goanna ... some of your names came up as well ... there was an uncomfortable silence and then we moved on to talking about CMSF Marines. However, as I'm bound to do the bidding of the Olde Ones (expect when it's stark, raving bonkers madness to so do) I shared my findings from my recent Quasi Annual Review, Inspection and Audit of some of the members of the MBT. Hopefully I can share the photo when I get home ... he was NOT a happy Berli ... of course if he was happy he wouldn't have been Berli would he ... kind of an oxymoron in that case I guess.

Just imagine: The Twin Cities going up in a flash of instant sunshine. ... he was NOT a happy Berli ... It's when he is happy that he is most to be feared. And anyway, I would expect your company to depress anyone. Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It definitely has a Kettlerian foundation, but it's been tweaked a bit. Warped askew, if you like. Put in a blender and set for "Liquify", even. And does "Shag rug" have any kind of double entendre meaning in Brit-land? Just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
