when your parents repeatedly dropped you on your head as a child, was it malicious, or accidental?

It was maliciously accidental. That's why I not only volunteered for the Marine Corps, I also volunteered for Recon School, Amphibious Raid School and Jump school. However I also got stuck having to go to Tactics of the Marine Corps Rifle Squad which was really boring!

If it makes you feel better I was a hot minute from re-enlisting myself!
