This explains a lot.
"Most gods throw dice, but Fate plays chess, and you don't find out until too late that he's been playing with two queens all along".  Terry Pratchett.

During filming of Airplane, Leslie Nielsen used a whoopee cushion to keep the cast off-balance. Hays said that Nielsen "played that thing like a maestro"

Tallulah Bankhead: "I'll come and make love to you at five o'clock. If I'm late, start without me."

"When all other trusts fail, turn to Flashman." — Abraham Lincoln.

"I have enjoyed very warm relations with my two husbands."
"With your eyes closed?"
"That helped."  Lauren Bacall

Master Chiefs are sneaky, dastardly, and snarky miscreants who thrive on the tears of Ensigns and belly dancers.   Admiral Gerry Bogan.

One bullet hit another mid-flight.

The description said this was recovered from the battlefield of Gallipoli.

IIRC there is another instance of that during the ACW. Fredericksburg maybe?

It is from this that I came up with a concept with the wholly clumsy name of Large Wars Improbability Theory.

Basically if a conflict is large enough, eventually something highly improbably is going to happen. Like two bullets meeting in midair. Or a bailed out fighter pilot killing the Japanese pilot who shot him down with his pistol.

link that story LB.
Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

Huh, whadyaknow. Happened at Wilson's Creek, too.

I think Star meant the one about the guy who used his sidearm to snipe the Zeke Driver while swinging b&f under a parachute.

It's been discussed here. Too bad if he doesn't pay attention.
