Eoin ColferExcuse me, Captain. Are you two going to weep salty tears of admiration over a helmet all night, or do we have matters to discuss?
About This Quote
This complex phrase has multiple meanings. It can be taken as an intense insult to someone who is obsessed with the military. It can also be used to criticize someone who talks about things that are not really important, like a helmet. But it can also be taken as something along the lines of “excuse me, Captain,” or “Captain,” which is a way of showing respect for a person who is in a superior position.
