Keeping the blogosphere posted on the goings on of the world of submarines since late 2004... and mocking and belittling general foolishness wherever it may be found. Idaho's first and foremost submarine blog. (If you don't like something on this blog, please E-mail me; don't call me at home.)
Watch a conversation like this take place with the XO, WEPs, COB, EDMC, MTCS, LPOs and more when the missile deck wasn't cleared topside and secured below before commencing a missile load.
What a fun video...parts of it actually give you a slap on the back of the head to make sure the job is getting done properly to avoid conversations like this. I couldn't help but laugh at some of it.
I remember looking into the wardroom and seeing our CO going off like this to the Department Heads. It happened about once a week. I don't know where he found the energy for the fury.
Curt, Although I like the Chief one, I have lived large portions of the ALCPO nightmare. One of my boys was married to a Commodore's youngest daughter also. Joel, thanks for the couple of gut-busters.
Okay, someone deserves a NCM for being so creative. I blew Budweiser over my damned screen it was so funny.
Do they show fun shit like this on the boats nowadays? Maybe on the mess deck? You need this kind of meaningless bullshit in order to relax a few moments and have a laugh with each other.
Hagar, This video has your words ringing true, but the mannerisms remind the guys who were on FL before you got there of a certain MMCS. He looked, acted, talked just like the fear (fuhrer) we called him. "We're A-gang, we take logs and fix shit!" (your favorite MM2, now LT SWO)
"We're A-gang, we take logs and fix shit!" D, If you email Pepe, he has my email address. I know the POS you are talking about. Joel, 12 or 13 years ago, this fine, then young lad replied that to Stratcom when he asked what we did, LOL.
Not sure if our favorite nub 2nd/lt swo can figure out how to email me or if he even knows who pepe is. we might have to learn him again, he did become a surface puke after all.
Other than the white letters on white background that makes some of the lines hard to read, this vid is PERFECT! Who hasn't felt that way at some point?
Hough, I'm a married somewhat respectable man now. I don't get to travel to the PI anymore. The wifey takes good care of me. It's crazy when you have to grow up isn't it? UGH. So, I enjoy my menudo, lumpia, and adobo at home, while sharing with a two year old girly. Life is good after you get the blue card, ain't crap for stress!!
WOW! That is quite the video and true on so many different levels. I am sure most of us can relate in some way or other.
ReplyDeleteHitler? Who said anything about Hitler?
ReplyDeleteThere are a bunch of different videos out there like this depending on the service. This is one of the better ones.
ReplyDeleteLooks someone had a lot of time on their hands before they lost PED privliges!
These are the kind of things that make me proud to be a submariner.

Here it is, 2045 Mountain Time. I laughed out loud. You have made my day.
ReplyDeleteI knew that Chief...he was on the Skate and sat my qual board.
ReplyDeleteI remember a few bad days like that!

This video ranks up there with the Hey Shipwreck stuff! Classic!
ReplyDeleteI farted I laughed so hard. Made me think of Chuck, Big Daddy, and El Jeffa
ReplyDeleteHAHAHAHA.. That's great!
ReplyDeleteIf you can't name at least three people who fit that description and demeanor, you were never on a boat. Period.
ReplyDeleteI've still got tears coming down my face from laughing so hard.
Awesome blog. I enjoyed reading your articles.

ReplyDeleteThe, "Hitler Doesn't Make Chief" is a good one, too.

Danny - Which do you like better??
I remember our DCA having a thing for the Captain's Daughter. Classic A-ganger's in trouble video. Hitler's Chief results - HILARIOUS!!

wow this seems like it is me with the idiots i work for! I am glad others see the world through the same eyes.
ReplyDelete"At least he's not yelling about women on submarines his time."
ReplyDeleteWe once had an MMFA tapping the XO's ex-wife. I'd like to see that discussion in this format. Joel - thanks for sharing. I'm tearing up.
ReplyDeleteOK the Hitler doesn't make Chief thing wasn't nearly as funny, except for the "rebound slut" thing.
