Tonight I had the privilege of hearing a 13 year old explain the terms "cooking" and "cooked" to my 45 year old manager and she said something so excellent I have to document it.
"cooked is bad. cooking is good. you're either in the pot or you're holding it."
Generation Kill (2008) feels less like a war show and more like a document. The focus isn’t on missions, it’s on the men, the waiting, the mistakes, the absurdity of command. It’s dry, uncomfortable, and brutally specific.
