Ever feel your jaw suddenly head due north on the side of your face what feels like two inches and not have a fracture?

Try a smaller ring gauge.

Yep[ram27bat] . When I got hit in the face with a 85 mph fastball.

I fell on the side of my head on concrete once. My feet slipped few feet in the hair on a wet floor. That did not feel very good, but I was so amazed that my jaw wasn't broken.

what's a soju tent?
Sorry... that was too easy.
Hope you are well. 😇
yes it was;)
🍺 you too
Soju is a distilled spirit, traditionally made from rice and kind of like vodka but sweeter. It's also the "national alcohol" of Korea. Back then it wasn't being made from rice, and had all kinds of additives in it, nasty, nasty stuff - that crap would knock you for a loop for at least a day. The soju tents were just that - "bars" of questionable legality set up in tents and under tarps draped from building to building in back alleys. Whole alleys filled with them, one after the other...
So, yeah, I and a number of others were ejected from an illegal bar in an alley that was selling something that resembled moonshine mixed with anti-freeze because we drank too much. Yay. Go Navy...
Why, good times naturally.
TG, Yep, I have spent some time in them as well...
That and a makali house out by the river at AnJung-ri.
Sounds like TMJ (Temporomandibular joint disorder)
