I have a great affinity for well-done snarky signature lines/quotes. I never disseminate them out to other organizations; they're just little in-jokes between the folks in my shop to keep us laughing. Some of my past favorites:<br><br>"Your ability to walk short distances without dying will surely be the insurgency's downfall."<br><br>"...And in careful manipulation of data samples, lies victory." (Context: Worked with a guy that had a bad habit of playing with data samples to control a narrative in his favor, so I made a small play on the MI Creed; original reads "In truth, lies victory.")<br><br>"I can show you the world..." (The irony of this song in Afghanistan is just incredible.)<br><br><br>What are the best signature lines you all have seen?

I knew a FIST team leader who had "All the way to the elbow!" On his emails.

<p>I was given a coin by one of the SF Groups I ran missions with in Mosul. I used it's motto in my singature block for a long time till it landed me an EO complaint when I got stationed in the hospital.</p><p>"Hard times dont last, hard men do."</p><p>The sad thing is that statement really motivates me sometimes, it's a shame an O6 found it offensive and I was forced to remove it.</p>

One that I thought was a misrepresentation and slightly humorous at the same time was used by one of the WO that I had served with. It read:
"Artillerymen see two types of people, other Artillerymen and targets."
Not entirely true, we have 3, friends go among that list too. But, still a little humorous to me.
