Cody Jarrett said...: It's worse when they spell it with an 'au' instead of the 'aw'.

W is a masculine letter, all sharp angles. U is a well known fag letter, all soft and wobbly.; November 1, 2013 at 5:07 PM
rcocean said...: As the Gunny says: "Only Faggots and Sailors are Called Lawrence"; November 1, 2013 at 7:43 PM
The Dude said...: "I didn't know you could stack shit that high! Where are you from, Private?"

"Texas, sir!"

"Bullshit!" You know the rest.; November 1, 2013 at 8:09 PM
Cody Jarrett said...: you climb obstacles like old people fuck

Love the Gunny. And most if not all of his dialogue was off the cuff. Which was good--no one could've written it--but had to have driven uber control freak Kubrick nuts.; November 1, 2013 at 8:15 PM
Icepick said...: I still don't know what short-dicking every cannibal in the Congo means. Or what assholes sucking buttermilk means.; November 1, 2013 at 8:22 PM
blake said...: It's an odd movie.

There's a scene where Bowie sings, badly and off key.; November 1, 2013 at 10:57 PM
Cody Jarrett said...: The short dicks part refers to cheating. It could also refer to just chopping off all the dicks, or biting off all the dicks. He added cannibals on the congo because it's alliterative.

So Gunny was saying he'd cheat every damn one of Crackerses cuzzins to make Pyle a Marine.

Or that he so badly wanted to make Pyle a Marine he'd bite the dicks off all of Crackerses cuzzins. Either way.

And of course, Gunny made up most of that patter himself, so he might not even know himself.

And apparently buttermilk is an old timey Sixty type of remedy for bed sores. So he was planning on riding them...well you get the idea.; November 2, 2013 at 9:47 AM
Cody Jarrett said...: There's a scene where Bowie sings, badly and off key.

It's been a few years since I saw it, but I don't remember Bowie in Full Metal Jacket.; November 2, 2013 at 9:48 AM
blake said...: Don't be fatuous, Cody.; November 2, 2013 at 12:15 PM
Icepick said...: Uh-oh, we're back to The Big Lebowski again....; November 2, 2013 at 4:32 PM
The Dude said...: Shut the fuck up, Donny!; November 2, 2013 at 5:52 PM
rcocean said...: Donny you're out of your element! Dude, the Chinaman is not the issue here!; November 2, 2013 at 10:12 PM
rcocean said...: Nihilists! Fuck me. I mean, say what you want about the tenets of National Socialism, Dude, at least it's an ethos.; November 2, 2013 at 10:14 PM
blake said...: Also, "Chinaman" is not the preferred nomenclature. "Asian American" if you please.; November 2, 2013 at 10:28 PM
Icepick said...: How are you going to keep them down on the farm when they've seen Karl Hungus?; November 2, 2013 at 10:51 PM
