Just about every episode of MASH I've seen, somebody claims that they hate Korea, or that they hate the stupid Army, or that they don't even know why they're at war. I don't get it. Why don't they all go home? If nobody wants to work there, how come they never leave?

Please respond with wrong answers.

Rosie's bar has been micro-dosing everyone with opium. They get "home sick" when they try to leave camp for more than a day or two. The doctors and hot lips know. But the addiction has them too far gone to fight it anymore.

"Be it ever so crumbled, there is no place like home." Darkest one so far. Awesome!

Does henry dying count as him leaving?

[-] randomdeadguy@lemmy.world 1 points 30 minutes ago

Technically he left AND died. Perhaps the others from the early seasons were also "Shot down over the Sea of Japan"

Too little too late! Legend has it, he could never look a bottle of Grape Nehi in the eye again

Everyone wants to know where Spearchucker went. They're afraid to leave anyone behind.

[-] randomdeadguy@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago

Spearchucker Jones was either shot down over the Sea of Japan, or he was on that prequel spin-off with Ugly John, Before MASH

I'll start: they don't want to leave Korea because the California mountains are too beautiful.

Klinger is secretly an agent sent to discourage anybody trying get out on phony section 8 discharges.

Sparky and Sofie are having an affair.

I visited the site they did the show at and they were all still there. They tried to make me stay too!

This explains so much! I erected a replica set in the backyard and Jamie Farr won't stop visiting.

I asked for wrong answers, but that's good too.

You're supposed to ask why Hot Lips is there.

[-] randomdeadguy@lemmy.world 2 points 13 hours ago

Yeah! Why is Hot Lips there anyway?

[-] sbv@sh.itjust.works 2 points 12 hours ago

I'm glad you asked. Hot Lips Houlihan, the woman who could talk a snake out of its skin, is staying in Vietnam. She's hawking war bonds to grunts! I swear she could sell ice cream to an Eskimo.
