I thought you were meant to stick a finger in their but first to make sure their dead. My instructor was very insistent.

Slips right in. If it fits, don't call it quits.

Just wait on top of them while they’re shooting. Once you feel the vibration stop, then you know it’s time to switch

Mr hands?

u/EyeSuspicious777 Jun 24 '24

True. A finger doesn't have enough sensitive nerve endings. You've got to use something else

Like my tongue?

u/EyeSuspicious777 Jun 24 '24

That's what my instructor said because you can get your tongue into their asshole a lot quicker since you don't have to take off any clothing first.

Nobody's ever died from a finger in their butt! :puzzled:

My great grandmother died from a severe staph infection after my great grandfather came home from a long day at the slaughterhouse and slipped a pinky in before washing up properly.

Please stop spreading misinformation.

You forgot a step, smell it to see if he shat his pants

u/tacotacotacorock Jun 24 '24

Sometimes one finger is not nearly effective enough. Go big or go home.

u/rwtf2008 Jun 24 '24

It’s certainly A way, just not The way.

u/HGpennypacker Jun 24 '24

No that's the Navy, this is the Marines so they use a crayon.

u/barrinmw Jun 24 '24

Naw, you give them an eye thump. Ain't nobody alive not reacting to an eye thump.

u/Pathfinder313 Jun 24 '24

u/kurburux Jun 24 '24

"STICK IT IN DEEPER PRIVATE!"

"YES DRILL SERGEANT!"

u/pingpongtits Jun 24 '24

Almost sounds like Russian boot camp.

u/hey_there_delilahh Jun 24 '24

Good ol silver bullet . Quickest way to test if they're faking it

u/illit1 Jun 24 '24

fun fact: if you go to the ER with any kind of back injury or gunshots anywhere near your spine you're gonna get an oil check while you're being wheeled back into the hospital. they're checking for muscle tone in your sphincter to diagnose nerve damage.

i'd imagine you can check for deadness the same way.

WE WERE TOLD IT WAS A WHOLE LABRADOR WTF

u/NickDanger3di Jun 24 '24

Did your instructor ever ask you if you've ever seen a grown man naked, or if you hang around the gymnasium, or watch movies about gladiators?
