  1. In my glorious but misspent yoot in the service of King Richard the Chicken-shitted of Nixon, I had a pretty good Vietnamese vocabulary as far as insults and such went. But I now know some of them were actually Fwench and I couldn’t begin to spell a single one of them.

  2. Yes, go waaaay over there and Poshel na khuy, and don’t come back!
    spaSEEbah.

  3. I always liked “materybets” – one of the great lines from the movie world and it does go well with Poshel na khuy

  4. My dad’s baby brother was a lifer in the U.S. Army. He was actually in both Korea and Vietnam. He was a supposed to not see any combat, but in Korea he did get involved when the Chinese invaded his “safe” area.
    Although his job was just communications, he told me about shooting at a Chinese in a quilted vest from about 100 yards away. He said that he could see dust flying off of the guy’s chest, while he kept on coming. For awhile he said that he was pretty much scared to death.
    All of this is just to say that I used to know cuss words from a number of different nations, including Turkey where he had one of his 5 kids born.
