A marine reservist
Often called "Semper sometimes". This is funny because Semper fidelis means "always faithful". Due to the nature of a reservist, they are the equivalent of part time workers in what is known as the Marine Corps. Therefore they are not "always faithful" which leads to them to only being faithful "sometimes". They are also called "weekend warriors" or "part timers" and are often the object of ridicule in jokes around real Marines

"John went the reservist route because he couldn't handle being a full time marine. Talk about Semper sometimes"

The phrase was used by a former national team coach (Fatih Terim) in an interview. Though grammatically wrong, it entered the Turkish daily language as a way of meaning "there is nothing to do about this" and it is being used in English.

February 17 is national Sometimes Day. This celebrates all the things that you only do sometimes. It’s a day to indulge and do things you wouldn’t normally do
Person 1: “hey do you wanna go out for a drink?”
Person 2: “no I only do that sometimes”
Person 1: “well it is the 17th…”
Person 2: “oh yeah it is sometimes day”

A wedding is being planned and the high a maintenance bride who is a stewardess and is reasoning with everyone that she wants the wedding to be in Hawaii. She explains that she can get very low cost flight tickets for everyone. Many in the two families want to go but are not that well off. Someone says "yes, but that plane has to land sometime." That means that the low cost flight tickets are appreciated but the huge expenses start once the plane has landed like taxi cabs or limos, motel rooms in Hawaii, tipping skycaps, cabs, luggage handlers, buying drinks at a renowned resort where prices are inflated, thus the idea of low cost flight tickets is irrelevant.
"That Plane" is a bit of a take on "those plans."

Humorous way of saying, "My request is totally non-urgent; I'm just asking if you could please perform this action when it's convenient for you."
Just like the independent/cautious-minded Angus MacGyver (in one of his TV episodes, he grimly remarked, "When someone assuredly tells me not to worry, THAT'S when I START WORRYING!"), anytime someone begins an assistance-request with, "Sometime in the next millennium...", I get nervous, since in all probability it's gonna be an exceptionally difficult/arduous/boring task that they're asking me about, and/or the undertaking may actually be a lot more urgent than even the requester realizes.

sometimes it’s okay to be a bit selfish and there will be times over the next 12 months when you really must put your own interests first no matter what that might mean for other people. What you do for yourself will benefit them too later on
