I wasn't going to join anyway, but the military recruiter who came to my school in the 90s ensured I wouldn't enlist.
He ended literally ended every phrase or clause with "'n stuff." And I do mean literally. Every phrase or clause.
It went like this:
"If you wanna join the army 'n stuff, you gotta get fit 'n stuff because basic training ain't easy 'n stuff but if you start getting fit now, you'll do fine 'n stuff."
For 45 fucking minutes.
FTFY
STUFF, N STUFF!
Almost 30 years ago and I still get triggered by how absolutely fed up I was by the end of class.
For some people it may be compulsive. Still probably they didn't want him as a recruiter.
It probably was compulsive, but after that amount of time having to listen to him, "fuck you and fuck the army" is, I think, a reasonable attitude.
So yeah, probably not the best recruiter.
Fuck you, and fuck the army, n' stuff.
