Never stand when you can sit, ad never sit when you can lay down.


Grampa said he learned that one on his first deployment to Japan. Said they got rest when and where they could in the jungles.

Settle down boy! You're jumpier than a long tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs.

Hey "Gee", you see your cousin there playing with your brother. They got men digging ore out the ground right now to build bars to put him behind.

And he was 100% right.

The same grandpa didn't much care for a certain demographic walking down the sidewalk in front of his house either. You couldn't write the stuff he said in Stormfront, much less the OT.

About someone missing teeth: "He looks like he could eat a cob of corn through a chain link fence."
