platoon

A unit of 30-40 soldiers, usually commanded by a lieutenant asisted by an NCO. A platoon is formed by at least two sections or squads (usually 3 or 4) and is smaller than a company. Typically, there are 3-4 platoons in a company. Most platoons are infantry platoons; some carry other designations such as mortar or heavy weapons platoons. A platoon is the smallest military unit led by a commissioned officer

Also a very kick ass movie from Oliver Stone that won Best Picture for 1986.
In the British Army, a platoon is led by a lieutenant or second lieutenant.
It's the same in the Canadian Forces and the U.S. Army.

Platonic

1) A type of love that is non-sexual.

2) A word Harry/Hermione shippers don't understand and/or ignore the meaning of.
Harry/Hermione shipper: OMG HARRY AND HERMIONE ARE SO MEANT TO BE!!! NOT THAT IDIOT RON AND THAT OBSESSIVE SLUT GINNY!!!

Me: Oh my god, stop being so delusional. Harry and Hermione's love for each other is entirely platonic, and if you read the books, you would see that Harry and Ginny as well as Ron and Hermione are meant to be.

One platoon wonder

the most knowledgeable part of a NAVY S.E.A.L.s career the moment he returns from his first deployment when he now knows everything about being a S.E.A.L. and needs zero fucking guidance from anybody at all regardless of their rank or experience level.
Thank god we got so many fucking one platoon wonders. telling us what we do. it is just impossible to think how we ever fought the war without them. Lets all grow beards never cut our hair and tell the C.O. to go fuck himself. It must be the right thing to do I mean thats what the one platoon wonders want.

Platonic Friend

A very close friend of any gender. Everyone thinks you are dating, or at least flirting a little. F.eks. Dan and Phil (Danisnotonfire & Amazingphil) The are Platonic Soulmates, which means that they aren't "Dating soulmates" but Platonic soulmates, because they aren't dating, but best friends.

Both men and women can have a plantonic friend, and everyone can be a platonic friend. Its "uni gender"

A platonic fetish is when you get excited by something in a non-sexual manner. Examples include oddly satisfying videos, pimple popping, and fandoms.
Did you see the latest Dr. Pimple Popper vid?

Of course, bro. That shit's my platonic fetish.

You talk a lot about stomachaches and vomiting. You into that kind of stuff?

It's my platonic fetish. I'm obsessed with it but it doesn't turn me on.
