a history of violence

I'm Lux, a twenty-something-year-old college student who enjoys history, sarcasm, intelligence and a quick wit. Very much an old soul, I am a future doctorate candidate for history a la World War II and novelist. I spend my free time reading about demons, conspiracy theories, time travel and the magic bullet that killed JFK.

My biggest weaknesses include expensive alcohol, Red Dawn parodies and dashing young men dressed in 1940s military garb.

I just want you to know, I want to punch you in every genital you own.
Every. Genital. You. Own.

In the foxholes, the men tried to get some sleep, difficult to impossible given the cramped conditions (usually 6 feet by 2 feet by 3 or 4 feet deep, for two men!). At least lying together allowed the men to exchange body heat. Heffron and Pvt. Al Vittore did manage to get to sleep the second night out [in Bastogne]. Heffron woke when Vittore threw his heavy leg over his body. When Vittore started to rub Heffron’s chest, Heffron gave him a shot with his elbow in his belly. Vittore woke and demanded to know what the hell was going on. Heffron started to give him hell in return, Vittore grinned and said he had been dreaming about his wife.

“Al,” Heffron said, “I can’t help you, as I got combat boots, jump pants and my trench coat on, and they are not coming off.”

Chapter 11, “They Got Us Surrounded - the Poor Bastards”
Band of Brothers
, Stephen Ambrose

…so you’d help me if you weren’t in your combat boots, jump pants and wearing your trench? Can be arranged Babe, can be arranged.
