Do you remember a TV show from the late 80s called Tour of Duty, it was set in Vietnam around a squad that was going on foot patrols each episode? One of the episodes ended with some guy who had been a liability to the squad finally being a hero and throwing himself on a grenade, saving everyone else in the squad. At the end, someone asked the sergeant, "What's the difference between bravery and stupidity?" Sergeant mused for a moment and said, "Timing?"
That's just a cruel joke.
I know. Shall I pass you the eye bleach?What the . . . ?
