horseshoes, hand grenades, and nuclear war

Even though you missed it by a tiny amount, you still didn't get there.

A time when there is no positive effect, or will be no positive effects, because of your actions".

With horseshoes, hand grenades, and nuclear war, you can miss your target, or goal, but still have some positive effect.

Luke : "Are you ready to go? We have to get to the airport, NOW!"
Chris :"I'm close"
Luke : "Close only counts in horseshoes, hand grenades, and nuclear war".

Zach : "I was so close to getting that job"
Matt : "Yeah, but close only counts in horseshoes, hand grenades, and nuclear war".

Hillbilly Hand Grenade

When in reverse cowgirl, the man, just before orgasming, reaches through the woman’s legs to grab a fistful of pubes. The man then rips them out while thrusting as hard as possible to launch the woman away, screaming “grenade” and taking cover.

I think Jared’s PTSD is getting worse, he keeps doing hillbilly hand grenades and crying afterward.

Susan and I were going at it last night and she asked, “what are we?” I had to get out of there so I did a hillbilly hand grenade and ran.
