What was life before GenKill??  There was no screwby, no whiskey tango, no schwacked.

It's totally fucking AMAZING, how all the little Rayisms have found their way into my vocabulary.  What are your favorite words you've gotten from GenKill?

I teach my friends new words. Like I was saying "my cookies got schwacked" and my friend thought it was a good word and started looking for reasons to use it.

I used "we make do" and "change on ROE" today. I caught myself right after I said it. Everyone was a little confused.

All this time and I forgot to mention the one I probably use most often: "mad hand skills." I even have others using it now too

When I'm leaving a room or heading out I'll say "I'm Oskar Mike" and I tell my team when they're getting stressed out "Stay frosty kids"  I've been talking like this for a while as I spent 8 yrs in Australian Army and hubby was in Australian Army for 25 yrs so it's pretty much been part of our language since I can remember

LOL are you kidding? My friends and I say POG all the time! It's awesome! But some of us are joining the marines so we do talk about POGS a lot.
