Afghan Rebel: Huh?

Afghan Rebel: You heard that?
Afghan Rebel#2: What? I heard nothing.

Afghan Rebel: There it was again! Now, listen!
Afghan Rebel#2: Okay then, if that shuts you up.

*Splat*

Afghan Rebel: And there it was again! What the heck makes that noise?! Sounds like someone dropping eggs from a cliff or something. Wierd.
Afghan Rebel#2: Ah, you goatpoo-for-brains! That's the US Army!
