Learn this from the waters:
in mountain clefts and chasms,
loud gush the streamlets,
but great rivers flow silently.

Thanks.

The EF New Post program apparently does not let you put a string of capital letters together. Only the first will remain a capital and the program reduces the others to small letters. A few days ago I started a new thread on Cheng man Ching and I put CMC in the post title, but when it printed it on the forum it automatically got changed to Cmc. I expect this is what happened to Bruce's Usmc.

Possibly the world's shortest intelligence test .. it's pass/fail.. though you do get to repeat for a passing grade after a few years.


Question:
Repeat after me...

"I (insert your name) do solemnly swear, to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America and
to obey the orders of those appointed over me.... " (etc.).

The correct answer is "Fuck that.. and you too man.." and leave the testing area.

People who fail the intelligence test completely are those who follow the instructions and repeat the oath.


Weird but true.

This manual is why they send in the Marines first.

Because they've got the skills to take care of business.

Yo, Fan:

The Marine Corps is looking for a few good men, and guys like you are definitely NOT it. tongue.gif You'd be a quick washout, IMO. embarassed.gif

Speaking of Intelligence Tests, does anyone really take Fan seriously anymore? huh.gif


Go on now! Get the hell out!

Of course not! rolleyes.gif We wouldn't want to see all of that wholesome entertainment go away, or lose the perpetual flow of vile invective that Fan spews forth onto so many threads here, would we? huh.gif

The cartoon pic was just a joke, showing a Devil Dog Drill Instructor ordering some loser off the Marine Base after they wash out of Basic Training. grin.gif Don't be alarmed, because Fan doesn't care what I think anyway. wink.gif
