Navy basic training:
A normally outstanding student was having a bad day. Keying the intercom by mistake, he said, “Sorry, sir, I am all #$@*^! up.”
An immediate reply came back: “Station using profanity, please identify yourself!”
The instructor instantaneously answered, “He may be #$@*^! up, but not that #$@*^! up!”
