It was Orange that did him in.

The VA fucked with him for forty years.

Ironically, the Gov sent some squirrelly little guy (wearing a suit, no less) to Dong Ha to tell us not to worry about the results of Orange that we were seeing.

The little shit had a can of Orange with him. He poured some into a glass and said he could drink it if he wanted with no ill effects.

Colin (Redstone) jumped up, pulled his ACP and yelled, "So fucking drink it!".

Maybe the funniest thing I have ever seen.
