My grandpa on my mom's side was literally a drill sergeant, not metaphorically,

not like that guy, it was tough on us kids.

No, literally he was a drill sergeant.

He taught Jan Michael Vincent, the guy who was in Airwolf,

how to shoot.

That's kind of my family's claim to fame right there. So just take a minute

reflect on that. If you feel more impressed by me now, I totally understand.

And so understandably, my grandpa had a little bit of trouble turning off the drill sergeant thing with us grandkids but he was awesome.

I love him I loved him I miss him he was great but he was the toughest grandparent on all of us by a wide margin

whenever he came to our house he had jobs for us to do and made just clean out the garage.

And at times, he would just give me work, I think, to break me down as a human and mess with

my brain in the same way he probably did with

recruits and so I remember one time he's like telling me to clean the bathroom

the bathroom is a mess here at your house, so I went and wiped some stuff or something.

It seems clean enough.

He came in and he's like, nope, none of this is right.

And he showed me how to clean the whole thing.

And he did it and got down scrub stuff clean the

toilet and everything very vigorously and then he got done and he was like now you do

it I remember thinking but it's totally clean now there's literally no reason to clean this bathroom it's

perfect yet he stood there and watched me clean an already clean bathroom

for 30 minutes critiquing every move.
