A stupid Marine motto that means if you're screaming like a baby during push-ups, it's because your body is too weak to handle the pain of being a useless meat sack.
My drill sergeant told me I was a 'weak sauce' Marine who needed to 'suck it up or get kicked in the nuts.'
I did 100 pull-ups and my arms looked like they were about to explode. Pain is just weakness crying for mercy.
When I got yelled at for falling out of formation, I knew pain was just my body saying, 'You’re not fit enough to be a Marine.'

A lie the Marines tell you to get you to sign up so they can yell at you for five years and make you run until your legs fall off.
I believed that pain was weakness leaving my body. Then I ran 5 miles in boots with rocks in them.
The Marine recruiter said it like it was gospel, but then he kicked me out of the office for being too fat to be a Marine.
They told me pain is weakness leaving my body. Now my back hurts and I have no idea what 'leaving the body' means.
