People's Republic of Pineland

Used in Army Special Forces community as the ficticous name for about 14 or 15 counties of North Carolina.

While going through Special Forces training the final element is a several week long exercise called Robin Sage. It takes place in these counties of N.C. During the exercise you plan and carry out operations as though you're in the imaginary People's Republic of Pineland. The exercise starts with a parachute infiltration of Pineland followed by a series of exercises training "guerillas" operating in the area.

Every once in a while a soldier going through the SF Q course will accidentally interact with a local who doesn't realize their in Pineland. But most of the locals in the community will particiapte in the exercise playing civilians and are aware the Army uses the area they live in for training. A local sherrif once shot a couple soldiers who thought he was part of the exercise after they tried to bribe him with Pineland money.

Soldier 1: how ya doing buddy?

Soldier 2: got my ass through SERE, now its on to the People's Republic of Pineland and I'm done.

Penelope

Do you know someone named Penelope? If so, you are blessed. They are some of the funniest, craziest, most gorgeous people you will ever meet. A Penelope will stand by your side and isn’t afraid to take risks. Academic wise, they are smart and witty and LOVE to get an answer right. If you need help, ask Penelope right away! They will not hesitate in helping you step by step and will get you to understand a complicated problem with little effort. A Penelope is usually popular, and loves to make new friends. In fact, she has ease in doing so. She is very social and loves being talked too. But more than listening, a Penelope will NEVER stop talking! So make sure to set some speech boundaries and don’t let your Penelope get too carried away in your conversation; because she may never stop... just like this rambling definition ;). Anyways, as i was saying, If you know a Penelope, like me, you are lucky, and should never drop them. Trust me when i’m saying, a Penelope won’t let you down and are some of the most genuine people you will ever meet! Their few bad qualities are overpowered by their overall happy vibe, and they constantly want to make you smile! So if you know someone named Penelope, keep them as a friend. Better yet, a best friend!

Ex. : “Hey Penelope, what was your answer for problem 3?”

Penelope

Penelope in Greek mythology is a sweet, attractive (almost enchanting) smart and witty girl. She demonstrates perseverance and is mostly known as Ulises' wife. Apart from being a well known historical feature, the name Penelope is just as beautiful and graceful. It is so easy to pronounce, and it's lovely. Penelope is a true gift, and any man who has her should treasure her forever. Penelope is a keeper.
