Hello, my people! I was recently asked to provide input on an NCOER we're writing for an E-6 who recently transferred to our shop. His losing unit did not write him an outgoing NCOER, so of course it falls on us to pick up the pieces.
The losing unit sang his praises, offering gushing adoration for this guy. But when we pressed them for bullets, they were unable to come up with anything concrete. Their failure to point to specific accomplishments more or less matches our observation of him.
He's a guy that would probably do well if we still had SP6 as a rank. So when my counterpart (his new rater) asked for bullets, this was my tongue-in-cheek reply:
* Can successfully inhale and exhale in sequence without supervision
* Routinely laces boots without causing loss of circulation to feet
* Surfs social media on his cellphone better than any other E-6 I've observed
* Maintains steady temperature in whatever chair he is occupying
So I thought I'd throw this topic out to all of you. Any humorous evaluation comments you've seen, or wish you could've included in writing one? Please share!

One of my favorites, which I have used (though my Senior did call me out on it) was:
“Is personally responsible for Chain-of-Command proficiency in NJP procedures.”
“Is personally responsible for Chain-of-Command proficiency in NJP procedures.”

Fun to read in all, but do such comments make it through HRC review. I’m elated when I push up and NCOER that doesn’t get kicked back.

“One of the best soldiers I’ve ever worked with....when he shows up for work, sober.”

Continued duty under this organization most likely in his being rated as an E5 next year. His total lack of tactical or techinal skills is only exceeded by his inattention to basic hygiene. Geniune concern over his total disregard for the welfare of subordinates who relies to carry him financially from payday to payday. Always on call as he can be readily found at the closest Gentlemen's Club near the maingate.

NCOER for an E7. "This NCO can plan and conduct a FTX under close personal supervision."

He demonstrates the unique ability to de-motive soldiers at a moments notice

Not a funny one, but in the 60s, NCOs were rated Excellent, Good, Fair and Poor. Excellent and Poor required justification as to those ratings. An E-6 asked why I had given him a Fair rating and I told him I didn't have time to write the justification for a Poor evaluation.
