i learned what to do if in combat an enemy throws a grenade at you and it falls within 2 meters of you.
If you are in a fighting position, a foxhole, you are supposed to prepare it with a grenade sump. This hole will protect you from the grenade.
You kick the grenade into the sump and get as far away from it as possible.
On open ground you dive away from the grenade shouting “GRENADE!!!” You lie boots together towards the grenade head furthest from it and you clamp your hands on the exposed part of your neck below the helmet and above your body armor.
You made millions pioneering your "auxiliary septic tank" system as an environmentally friendly wastewater diversion for businesses. What you delivered was nonsense that has caused backups, leaks, and widespread sickness for all of your victims.
Now, let's see how high the shit can really fly.
In your mouth is a fragmentation grenade. The trigger is in your cheek, but you may have noticed that the pin is missing. If you do not keep that grenade in your mouth, it will trigger and detonate before you can run.
The pin to that grenade is down in the port-a-potty in front of you. It's from an office that used one of your auxiliary septic tanks. Wade through the consequences of your fraudulent business, or just wait for your jaw to tire too much to keep the grenade in.
Live or die, Carl. Make your choice.
*fumbling, then a recorder is slipped into a pocket, and the sound becomes muffled* okay, so how do we know he won't, like... Just take the grenade out of his mouth? I mean, yeah, then he has a live grenade, but can't he just throw it across the room and hide in the shitter? I mean, what's making him actually play the ga- *tape runs out*
I was at a lighthouse with my cousin and we ate pomegranates when one of them became a grenade (in our language pomegranate and grenade are the same word) and blew up in a pink dust.
