Dan Caddy, a sergeant first class with the Vermont Army National Guard, has just published Awesome Sh*t My Drill Sergeant Said: Wit and Wisdom from America’s Finest, a book based on his wildly popular (832K & counting!) Facebook page of the same name. If you’re one of those folks who pretends that military life is something like Sunday School, stay away: both the book and the web page are hilariously profane. Here are eleven highlights from the book, specially selected to protect some of our more delicate readers.
- “If you’re having trouble sleeping tonight, privates, whatever you do, don’t think about the fact that your parents are probably having sex in your old bedroom because your water-headed ass is finally gone.”
- “Don’t call me sir, I work for a living! And my parents were not related!”
- “I want that toilet seat so clean I can make a sandwich on it!”
- “What did you shave with, private? A bowl of milk and an angry cat?”
- “I do not discriminate. If my own mother was in basic training, I’d smoke her ass too!”
- “Private, you look like a can of biscuits that’s just popped open.”
- “You’re about as sharp as the leading edge on a bowling ball.”
- “Your tears are like jet fuel to me: if I could bottle them, I’d take them home.”
- “Privates, all I do is eat gunpowder and run.”
- “Do an about-face, a left face, and get outta my face.”
- “Private, go away, you smell like failure and corn chips.”
Of course, after passing over the entries that drop F-bombs, these 11 were pretty much all that was left. If you can handle a little lot of profanity, Awesome Sh*t My Drill Sergeant Said is an awesome read.
