FortKnox's Journal: Packing and Cleaning

I have been packing and cleaning all morning (actually, I had to do some 'outdoor work', too). But, as I was cleaning the bathroom, a funny quote came to mind:

I want this head so clean the Virgin Mary, herself, wouldn't mind coming in here and taking a dump.

Anyone guess the movie (should be semi-easy if you've seen the movie, and if you haven't, you need to)?

Full Metal Jacket

I think it's the boot camp part of FMJ.

C'mon

The only thing funnier than that quote were the 2,000 other DI Hartmann lines you didn't quote. ;-)

"They're paying for it, you eat it."
or
"You look like the kind of man would give another man a rim job without the common courtesy of a reach around."

Might have to pop that in tomorrow for Father's Day.

Have fun packing. I can't really say I envy you. Good luck getting it together. Pack your boxes with room and small (i.e. one word description).
It will help.

I agree wif this psot!

[mekkab]

Ditto!
p.s.- Get off my obstacle, pyle!

"What is your major malfunction, numbnuts?! Didn't your mommy and daddy love you enough?!" My, Vincent Dinofrio has come a long way since then.

BTW, who can forget the most famous quote in the movie? "Me love you long time." Good enough for Luther Campbell to sample.

"Me love you long time."

My favorite was right before this when one of the guys asks her if she'd "like to earn a nice, big shiny American quarter."
Sadly, I found this hilarious.

Too Bookoo!

Re:C'mon

[FortKnox]

Best quote? I dunno...

"Private Pile, you climb walls like old people f*ck!"
"How can you kill innocent women and children?" "EASY! You don't lead them as much!"

Anyone who runs is a VC. Anyone who stands still is a well-disciplined VC.

heh, speaking of that...

The first thing I set my new tivo to record was all Stanley Kubrick films.

What's your major malfunction, numbnuts?

[bethanie]

For years and years, the boot camp portion of that movie was the only part I had seen. It could easily stand alone as its own film. Funny thing is that I had forgotten it was Kubrick. Figures. Clockwork Orange is another fave. Totally awesome! I'm gonna have to start updating my wish list again!

So -- you got any packing tips for me? I've got a double-wide trailer to box up by the end of the month, and a preschooler who will by dying to help. I can use all the helpful suggestions I can get!! :-)

Good luck

Have a father that works for rubbermaid and get a ton of totes. Its easy to pack (and simple to store afterward).

Packing we did a ton beforehand. We bought 'washable' paper plates/bowls, so we could (mostly) pack up the kitchen a good week ahead of time.

I'll give more advice as I think of it :-)

Since he was a real Drill Instructor, they really talk like that. I almost laughed (once!) when FMJ "dialog" came up.

mail call [historychannel.com] - same guy, same attitude, but censored for the history channel. my dad can't get enough of that r lee ermey. it's one of those shows he gets to watch if i'm over because my mom doesn't dig it so much.

coincidence?

[subgeek]

i just watched that movie saturday. i see that was when you posted this as well, but i didn't see the message then. and now i'm once again wishing kubrik had been around to finish AI with spielberg instead of spielberg finishing by himself.
