Love: Almost every guy in the Marine Corps is a good guy you would've hung out with before you joined. You almost have to be to make the leap of self faith that is enlisting in the best branch of our Armed Forces.
Hate: That just because someone is a "good guy", officers don't give them the fitness reports (FITREPs) they deserve for being fat/incompetent/immoral/selfish/etc. Good officers always seek the opinion of their senior enlisted men before writing another Marine's FITREP. My favorite saying when responding to an officers statement that someone is a good guy, "There's a lot of good dude's running around."
