The name students of Special Forces Assessment and Selection 'lovingly' refer to it as. Three weeks of hell that includes: running, ruck marching, land navigation, and the dreaded Team Week.
Also the first step in soldiers' training to become US Army Special Forces soldiers, known as the Green Berets.

I'm so glad we somehow made it through the School For Advanced Suffering.
Wow! You did? Did you get selected there?
I did.

Get the School For Advanced Suffering mug.A meme from a game called Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.
Why are we still here? Just to suffer? Every night, I can feel my leg and my arm... Even my fingers... The body I've lost...
The comrades I've lost... Won't stop hurting

Get the Why are we still here? Just to suffer? mug.'The electronic I Ching calculator was badly made. It had probably been manufactured in whichever of the South-East Asian countries was busy tooling up to do to South Korea what South Korea was busy doing to Japan. Glue technology had obviously not progressed in that country to the point where things could be successfully held together with it. Already the back had half fallen off and needed to be stuck back on with Sellotape.'
'It was much like an ordinary pocket calculator, except that the LCD screen was a little larger than usual, in order to accommodate the abridged judgments of King Wen on each of the sixty-four hexagrams, and also the commentaries of his son, the Duke of Chou, on each of the lines of the hexagram. These were unusual texts to see marching across the display of a pocket calculator, particularly as they had been translated from the Chinese via the Japanese and seemed to have enjoyed many adventures on the way.'
'The device also functioned as an ordinary calculator, but only to a limited degree. It could handle any calculation which returned an answer of anything up to "4".'
'"1 + 1" it could manage ("2"), and "1 + 2" ("3") and "2 + 2" ("4") or "tan 74" ("3.4874145"), but anything above "4" it represented merely as "A Suffusion of Yellow". Dirk was not certain if this was a programming error or an insight beyond his ability to fathom, but he was crazy about it anyway, enough to hand over £20 of ready cash for the thing.'

Get the Sufia mug.Stuck up town that will definitively get you somewhere in life though. Full of pretty, rich people who live along side the lowerclass. You're known here for looks or being good at a sport. Sports are everything, alongside with Bagel Boys. Every Friday night is either dedicated to football or hockey. Self defense shirts are slowly dying out since Biddy retired. Ugg slippers, a North Face vest and leggings are the go to outfit, but can be substituted for ripped jeans and Adidas superstars. Most girls sport either Snickerdoodle Iced Coffee, Starbucks, or Dunkin. People get high in the bathrooms and the highschool has no designated lunch spots. The guys never seem to wear pants, only shorts, and always high end brands. Nudes and drugs are sold, yet the highschool is one of the top in New York. If you have blonde hair and/or eyes that aren't green or brown, you're unique. The town is 20% Italian 25% Jewish 25% Hispanic 20% Italian 5% Black and 5% Asian. Cliques are very dominant, and there's no set group of '''popular''' people. Amazing hockey team. Mainly known for Grace Vanderwaal and great students, the pressure is high. Cuts for sports can even happen senior year and sports can completely change their reputation in a season (referred to as a "szn") There is a lot of competition, and most freshmen will have sex before sophomore year. Welcome to Suffern.
"Ugh we're gonna lose this hockey game tonight and never hear the end of it."
"Who are we playing?"
"Suffern."
"Oh shit."

Get the Suffern mug.Also written and said more grammatically correct as "suffice it to say" or "(it) suffices to say", this term basically, literally means "it is sufficient to say"
From the word "suffice" which when used as an intrasitive verb like in the example above, means "to meet present needs or requirements; be sufficient".
"Suffice to say" is often deemed an archaic version of the popular saying.
