I don’t know when Sarah will announce her intentions, but I REALLY HATE the phrase “110 percent.” THERE IS NO SUCH NUMBER.

110% definitely does exist, especially in the USAF. It is to us what “Hooah” is to the Army despite the fact that isn’t a word.

I'll have you know that when I fully commit to something, I usually just give 107.5%. That's because I want to hold that other 2.5% in reserve for when I really need it.
