I am Gunnery Sergeant Hartman, your senior drill instructor.

If you ladies leave my island, if you survive recruit training, you will be a weapon; you will be a minister of death, praying for war. But until that day you are pukes. You are the lowest form of life on Earth. You are not even human fucking beings. You are nothing but unorganized grabastic pieces of amphibian shit!

Because I am hard, you will not like me. But the more you hate me, the more you will learn. I am hard but I am fair. There is no racial bigotry here. I do not look down on niggers, kikes, wops or greasers. Here you are all equally worthless. And my orders are to weed out all non-hackers who do not pack the gear to serve in my beloved Corps. Do you maggots understand that?

Who said that? Who the fuck said that? Who’s the slimy little communist shit, twinkle-toed cocksucker down here who just signed his own death warrant? Nobody, huh? The fairy fucking godmother said it. Out-fucking-standing! I will PT you all until you fucking die! I’ll PT you until your assholes are sucking buttermilk!

I will gouge out your eyeballs AND SKULL FUCK YOU.

You climb obstacles like old people fuck, you know that Private Pyle! Get up here - you’re too slow! Move it move it! Private Pyle, whatever you do, don’t fall down - that would break my fucking heart! Quickly, up and over - up and over! Well what in the fuck are you waiting for Private Pyle! Get up and over! Move it move it move it!

Are you quitting on me? Well are you?! Then QUIT you slimy fucking walrus looking piece of shit! Get the fuck off of my obstacle! Get the fuck down off of my obstacle! Now! Move it! I’m gonna rip your balls off so you cannot contaminate the rest of the world! I will motivate you Private Pyle if it short dicks every cannibal on the Congo!

short dicks every cannibal in the Congo. I have no idea what it means, but it’s my favorite line of the whole movie.

Someone’s been digging through their Kubrick collection, I see.

No, sometimes I just hear Gunnery Sergeant Hartman yelling in my head from time to time. Maybe I should talk to someone about that…

For those for whom the printed word doesn’t quite capture the mood, I suggest a roam through the nearby clips at Full Metal Jacket- Opening Scene

I bet you’re the kind of guy that would fuck a person in the ass and not even have the goddamn common courtesy to give him a reach-around. I’ll be watching you.

…today…IS CHRISTMAS

Cracks me up the way he yells that.

The fucking war will be over by the we get up there, won’t it Private Pyle?


Is that you, John Wayne? Is this me?

What have we got here, a fucking comedian, Private Joker. I admire your honestly; hell, I like you-you can come over to my house and fuck my sister!

<WHOMP!>

You little scumbag! I’ve got your name! I’ve got your ASS! You will not laugh, you will not cry, you will learn by the numbers, I will teach you! Now get up, get on your feet! You had best unfuck yourself, or I will unscrew your head and shit down your neck!

Gunnery Sergeant Hartman is my idol. I try to model my teaching techniques on his every day in the classroom. :smiley:

*What is your major malfunction, numbnuts? Didn’t Mommy and Daddy show you enough attention when you were a child? *

I use this quote as an alert sound on my computer sometimes.

You love the Middle Ages, don’t you?!! The concept of a geocentric universe gets you sexually excited, doesn’t it? You want to make 16th century mathematician Johannes Kepler your bitch, don’t you?!!

Now, let me see your war face.

Bullshit, you didn’t scare me - work on it. :mad:

Do I make you nervous? . . . Sir, WHAT? WERE YOU ABOUT TO CALL ME AN ASSHOLE?!

Do any of you people know who Charles Whitman was?

silence

None of you dumb asses knows…

Sir! He shot Kennedy from that Book Suppository Building, Sir!

What is this Mickey Mouse shit? What in the name of Jesus H. Christ are YOU animals doing… IN MY HEAD?! Why is Private Pyle outta his bunk after lights out?! Why is Private Pyle holding that weapon?! Why aren’t YOU stomping Private Pyle’s guts out!?

Did your parents have any children that lived? I bet they regret that! You’re so ugly you could be a modern art masterpiece!

  • if it hadn’t been for R. Lee Ermeys performance, this movie would have been almost forgotten by now…

I know a good therapist.
