  All I know is the first time I heard it was back in 2007 when I was in USMC boot camp, and one of the drill instructors said to one of the struggling recruits, “You’re just a poor little SpaghettiO, lost in the sauce” and I had to hold back that special kind of maniacal laughter that comes from being sleep deprived to avoid shifting that drill instructor’s focus in my direction.

  I’ve loved that saying ever since
