Tautologies

[Jimmy1]

You just don't get it do you. Tautology - Tortellini of course its the same

Evidently we've been invaded by "pleonasm's". They're laying all over here. Expect you front line guys to catch this. Christ, we're over run.

I don't get it. How is a meat filled pasta the same as a Tautology. I know. I'm thick, it's early and I'm off coffee. :sleep:

I have no f*cking idea mate. It started as a single comment and like most threads has gone totally off track. This is the bar and we a just talking shit. I enjoy the giggles.

This thread is the best box of frogs with party hats on that I've seen in ages.

This is great stuff. Kind of has had that "bar room, having a few pints with mates" feel to it. I need a chuckle to keep me sane........ does that make sense...... As I laugh insanely.

Well, here is the obvious one "Military Intelligence." Oh wait, that is an oxymoron!

My favorite MOS was " Counter Intelligence"... They were good people but seriously don't name your self after the opposite of a rational mind

Forward Planning

As opposed to the tried and true military "backward" thinking, "Hey, I just screwed the pooch on that one and how do I not repeat that bag of ass"

Yup like the Navy's "Safety Stand Down" Right after they screwed up in huge way. All it was was a suspension of operations until somebody could figure out what the hell went wrong. But it sounds like. "Shit, safety is not working for us. Lets chuck it and see what happens.

We're still good for a ride though..........mostly.

It sounds like the UN ROE in Somalia, that they can point a gun at you but if they don't pull the trigger, that means they are not hostile

I got some signs done once. It had a hat and pair of gloves. It read "safety first must be worn". That might be a tautology. I am thinking that it is. But then what do I know?

 

[Ned]

They put those signs up in our vehicle garages. We got the marker pens out and turned them into the Village People.

Oh........hang on...............Marker Pen
