“When the fuck do they expect me to do this?” Being replaced by “perhaps I should work later” is top tier military satire.

No fucking chance of working late voluntarily. Not paid for it. Only do when told to.

[–] Pacattack57 50 points 3 days ago

My favorite is “Ask me if I give a fuck” being replaced by “Of course I’m concerned!”

[–] monkeyslikebananas2 40 points 3 days ago (1 children)

This feels like a chain email from 2002.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 days ago

I do vaguely remember seeing this during the old web days

[–] TheDoozer 60 points 3 days ago (1 children)

My favorite part is "Eat shit and die" is addressed to the enlisted ("excuse me" being the replacement) and "Eat shit and die, motherfucker" is addressed to officers ("excuse me, Sir"), because you wouldn't be saying "sir" to enlisted members.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago

My favorite layer on top of this is that the "excuse me, sir" maps back to "eat shit and die, motherfucker" regardless of intent

[–] [email protected] 57 points 3 days ago (3 children)

Aint no way thats real right? Thats like shooter games with blood and death being concerned about swearwords in chat.

[–] shalafi 52 points 3 days ago

We were passing this around the office in the 90s as "business etiquette".

[–] FelixCress 26 points 3 days ago

It is a very, very old joke. At least 20odd years old.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 days ago

Are you asking if the meme in shitpost is real?

[–] Avatar_of_Self 25 points 3 days ago (2 children)

A) it's fake. The specific squadron would be called out explicitly on that memoradum. Paragraph 1 would definitely have to referenced at least 3 AFIs and paragraph 2 would have definitely (especially being an SFS Memo) disclosed punishment via the UCMJ.

B) that copy paste memo indicates it is from a local security forces commander and definitely not the USAF.

I know it's supposed to be a joke but I figure I'd note the amount of fakery here since there's always this kind of mythos that lives a long life.

Everything from the supposed sanctioned DOD standard of 7 wipes of a disk (never was a thing -- The Orange Book/NISPOM on e referenced a study by Gutmann in the 90s), that basically training issues stress cards to trainees (been a rumor as if fact since the early aughts and I'm sure earlier), that's there's a single bullet and 9mm gun at the top of the flag pole at base command, that the Etherbunny was a thing that happened to a friend's roommate, that the country will take care of you after you serve and perhaps worst of all -- Marines don't literally eat crayons and it is just a joke.

[–] abigscaryhobo 1 points 1 day ago

See, you invalidated that whole thing with the last line. Every marine has at least bitten a crayon. Some people have allergies.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago

I believed you until the last point, I've seen it myself.

[–] [email protected] 47 points 3 days ago (1 children)

That's "Eat shit and die motherfucker, sir!"

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Where the fuck is that leading Sir! It’s “Sir! Eat shit and die motherfucker, Sir!” GUESS WHO’S GETTING AN EXTRA 30 LBS ADDED TO THEIR RUCKSACK ON THE NEXT HUMP!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

"I don't think you understand."

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

“I’ll try to schedule that.”

[–] Valmond 33 points 3 days ago

Excuse me, sir

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago

They should sound like a british butler?

[–] franklin 7 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

"there seems to be a disconnect"

is my favorite professional way to say what the fuck are you talking about?

We are committed to the plan

[–] [email protected] 18 points 3 days ago

Ahhh I get it. When we would say the right side in pleasant company, we would really say the left side in reality.

"I wasn't involved in the project" is unlikely to have ever been said out loud, but "it's not my fucking problem" is the correct phrase.

"Really?" Has never left my lips. "You've gotta be shitting me" is something I'll say 7-10x per code review.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago

Your great great grandmother cheated on your great great grandfather with this joke. So fucking old

[–] thebestaquaman 7 points 3 days ago

For added effect, read the right-hand side in the voice of a British aristocrat.

He was a marine not air force

I am afraid I will never get over Macho Grande. It wasn't a great picture.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

Good heavens!

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I really need a full table of this. This translates really well to those of us who've had blue collar jobs, or anyone who has spent extensive time in the field.

As a former bushrat, this whole thing is so on point.

[–] KnightontheSun 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

We had other version suited for the office. For example, “Nice tie!” meant “fuck off” or something. Still looking again for the specific one we used in IT 20 years ago.

[–] wreckedcarzz 2 points 3 days ago

I need a copy of that if you find it

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 days ago

Interesting behavior
