I just love the orwellian habit of turning every noun into a verb.

"Hatted it."
"Smoke it up."
"Just got SAW'd."
"Nading it."
"RPG'd it."

and so on.

[goguapsy]

I say baby apc for small apc's like BRDM or the chines armored car

"Armored baby, 3 o'clock!"
"HIT THAT BABY WITH THE AT-4!"
"There is a baby behind that hill!"
"Baby around that corner!"
"That baby is shooting at me!"
"Baby, baby, baby oohhh."
"Enemy baby spotted!"
"I got you, baby."
"That baby is gonna kill us!"
"Is that baby never gonna leave?"
"I need area attack to kill a baby!"
"Enemy baby! Hide!"

Wut's dis? I dont evn...

Whaa... I just created a new verb for my class:

"So, to figure out the limit now, all we need to do is... algebrate!"

It amuses me whenever I see Rhino using "epically" instead of specifically on these forums, although I suppose its probably not unintentional

Airtanks?

[B.Olson[2DMAR]]

Airtanks? lol, secret scuba diving hack???

[Brainlaag]

Airtanks?

Correction, "Flying Tanks" for Hueys.

[USMC scout sniper]

When i'm an insurgent instead of saying "marine 12 o clock" I say "INFADEL 12 o clock''

[Operator009]

I know a guy who used to refer to the bdrm as a S**T WEASEL and a btr as a S**T FOX.

[Mikemonster]

Lets face it, he just liked saying shitweasel and wanted to see if he could get away with it

[Stealthgato]

Infadel instead of infidel.
Motor instead or mortar.

[goguapsy]

"Cache" instead of pile of lego toys... sigh.

A brdm is a btr...

[havoc1482]

"Optimus Prime" referring to Big Red.

[Brainlaag]

A brdm is a btr...

It is a from of BTR but usually the designation is BRDM. Most people don't even know there is a BTR-40.

[Mikemonster]

I have no idea what the different BRDM/BTR things are, hence I say ALL of the designations for it but with 'thingy' a lot in-between. And if it has a gun or not.

So, this thread has basically proven that 90% of the people in it do not know what a malapropism is.

It's funny, because it's true.

It's funny because it is mechanically funny.
