Just came here to post this.

Normally, I don't care about actors, but Ermey seemed like an all-around good guy.

RIP. I agree, he seemed like a good Joe. I really liked Mail Call. I have the DVDs.  I reckon I need to break them out.

I don't think he was acting.

I'll miss him.

Bummer, I liked his acting work and his documentary stuff. I guess the evil watermelons finally got him.

I could quote Full Metal Jacket pretty much from start to end in high school. One of my favorite movies ever.

But the best role he had for me was when he played the Janitor's father on Scrubs.

 :'(

He was awesome.

I was shocked to learn he was 74. Lately, he'd been looking much older.

I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

Complications of pneumonia according to his manager.  The world is a lesser place without the Gunny.  Godspeed and Semper Fi, sir.

If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

Somehow I think R. Lee Ermey would appreciate "Duffelblog vs Matthew Modine".  :laugh:

"Private Joker can't take a joke" was hilarious.

Duffelblog is almost as funny as Babylon Bee. (Probably because I get the jokes easier at Babylon Bee vs. Duffelblog...)

Being out of the military for so long, there's stuff I don't relate to as well. With the Babylon Bee, there plenty of jokes about whatever is currently fashionable in Christendom I don't get. Thank goodness.

"Sir, a jelly donut Sir."

"A jelly donut?"

"Sir, yes Sir!"

"How did it get here?"

"Sir, I took it from the mess hall, Sir."

"Is chow allowed in the barracks, Private Pyle?"

"Sir, no Sir!"

"Are you allowed to eat jelly donuts, Private Pyle?"

"Sir, no Sir!"

"And why not, Private Pyle?"

"Sir, because I'm too heavy, Sir."

"Because you are a disgusting fatbody, Private Pyle."
