A Don Shipley threefer

Here’s a Don Shipley threefer. Three car salesmen phony SEALs, Darrial Kouhout, Ernest “Ernie” Livesay and Michael “Mike” Williams. Darrial is a riot; after he tells Don that he’s a SEAL, Don gives him a couple of minutes to research Don a little bit, and he calls back and says that he never claimed to be a SEAL, that he has the SEAL tattoo to honor the SEALs that he worked with, as an aviation electrical technician. I guess he worked in a building near the SEAL’s building.

    A 3-fer this early in the morning. Man, the Phony SEAL business is really on a roll these days.

    Too bad fatboy derek church did not pretend to be a SEAL; would have been fun to listen to Senior Chief tear his fat little body apart over the telephone…

  3. Combat Historian

    Why is there a bunch of used car salesmen pretending to be SEALs, and not a bunch of real SEALs pretending to be used car salesmen?

  4. Ex-PH2

    Combat Historian, are you aware that being a used car salesman is the BEST cover for any supersecret secret squirrel?

    The Hair is on fire!!!! Don’t mess with the HAIR!!!!

    Ex-PH2, I remembered the beginning of the 1986 movie “Commando”, when one of Schwarzenegger’s secret squirrel minions had retired to become a used car salesman, that scene was actually kinda funny until the bad guys off him…

    One of the guys, Ernie Livesay, works for Koons, one of the major dealerships in the DC area. Don was nice enough to include his office phone and his e-mail address. It looks like he works in Annapolis (a bad choice for a fake SEAL). I’ve already fired off an e-mail with links to the You Tube video. I don’t think that he’s going to have a very good morning. More information about Ernie is available on the Koons site at http://www.koonstoyotaannapolis.com/our-staff.htm.

    Pretending to be a SEAL in a Navy town, that’ll go over real well; almost as bad as pretending to be a SEAL in Virginia Beach…

  9. AverageNCO

    “You’re a LUMPY FUCK!”
    Best line of the whole damn video!

  10. 68W58

    re #7 “his hobbies include basketball and movies” and now fear of the hair!

  11. nbcguy54

    Just more proof that you don’t mess with guys named Don who have hair (Don Shipley, Don King, “the” Donald).

  12. Valkyrie

    Ummm…a “threefer” with The Hair and Don?
    Funny, you suggest it and thousands click on your link, I “suggest” it with some pictures and I’m asked not to contact him again. You Military types do stick together don’t you? ????

    Joking of course.

  13. Hondo

    nbcguy54: you left out Don Corleone . . . . (smile)

    Yeah, I know that “Don” there is an honorific vice a name. Still fits, though.

  14. A Proud Infidel

    Those BOYS live up to the stereotype of Used Car Salesmen, LMAO!! GO, SENIOR CHIEF SHIPLEY!!

  15. nbcguy54

    @13 – this could almost be it’s own thread if not a completely new website.

  16. 68W58

    Mattingly, McLean, Meredith…

  17. I gotta pitch this to a cable network. Don Shipley–The Most Interesting Hair In The World–phony SEAL buster.

  18. GunzRunner

    Marine Sniper Sgt = Navy Seal. These clowns make it too easy. You don’t need great hair to figure that one out. 😉

  19. Just An Old Dog

    One of them dropped my name as one of his classmates in 234. Im wondering If I ran into him at some point in time.

  20. 234? Seriously? Someone’s been watching a little too much Discovery Channel or Military Channel reruns…

  21. David

    Wasn’t the poser who pissed his pants in “True Lies” a used car salesman?

    As a former used car salesman (you do what ya gotta do to keep the wife and kids fed…) I am offended by these people.

  22. Sparks

    Don Shipley Sir! Way to go …way to be. Thank you.

  23. streetsweeper

    Dang, J.O.D…That was pretty ballsy of him! LMAO!

  24. Green Thumb

    Good Stuff!

  25. Cacti35

    Great video, great when fake Seals get exposed but priceless when they are used car salesman!

  26. Cacti35

    @11, and 13, you also have to think of “Don Diego” he was Zorro’s real name in the tv series from 1957.

  27. tm

    @21 Man, I was thinking of “True Lies” the moment I saw that this had used car salesmen in it.

    Someone should pull Darrial’s records, see how close he got to his dream of being a SEAL…

  28. Marine_7002

    Oh shit. It’s that guy!

    LMAO

  29. Toasty Coastie

    Oh my..Senior Chief Shipley, you are my hero…

    *smh* When we these morons learn?

  30. nbcguy54

    *said in one of those deep TV voices* “Coming soon to the Whoop-Ass channel – he’s deadlier than a Harrier jet; the makers of trident chewing gum pay HIM royalties; he’s Hair Force One, Don Shipley, raining doom and gloom on those who would attempt to tarnish the reputations and good names of those who keep this country safe by pretending to be elite Navy SEALs. So posers beware – don’t mess with the hair. He’s coming to get you”.

  31. Just An Old Dog

    @23,
    yeah I had to replay that part of the video a few times. Im pretty sure I had been retired a few years before that BUDS class ever went through. I dont even know how my name would even be connected To Any SEALs training, Its a faily uncommon surname, I think other than me and my brother, who were in the Marines during the 90s there may be onlt one ot two others. The douche was in Aviation, so there was a chance he deployed on ship with my brother who was a Sgt in Avionics. He wasn’t MarSoc, just a winger, but he was in great shape and dude could have been stalking him in the weight room,

  32. BinhTuy66

    I bet these retired army/SEAL salesmen would try to sell you a 3 1/2 cylinder 1959 Shelby GT Mustang… Glad I put my coffee cup down before watching!

  33. tm

    @20 The entire series that followed class 234 is up on youtube. “234” is going to replace “ummm….uhhh” as the default phony SEAL answer to the question, “What BUDS class # were you in?” I’m sure there will be tens of thousands of phonies in that class now.
    I came away from watching the class 234 documentary thinking: “These guys are insane. Wait, this (BUDS) is just the beginning for them…”

    I was a fan of Instructor Patstone during the series, glad someone put together a highlight reel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AULjXNjJUDs

  34. Valkyrie

    Just an Old Dog – Now that your name has been mentioned in one of The Hair’s videos, may I say “I knew you before you were famous?”

    TM – Thanks for that link. I enjoyed him also! I watched that series of videos a few months ago on YouTube. I wondered why that class and show he was talking about sounded familiar to me.

  35. HS Sophomore

    Good job, Senior Chief. You’re doing the lord’s work; keep it up and keep making us laugh!

  36. HS Sophomore

    I’ve got a story for you guys. I met one of these jackasses in the Starbucks line last Friday waiting for the train home. Some rotund POS (looked a little like William Derek Church, matter of factly) in the front of the line went off on a ranting screed at the Starbucks barista for not putting enough cream in his frappuccino and said, “Just once, I wish idiot civvies like you could show the kind of ability to get shit done and listen to instructions that me and my guys had in the SEALs.” The girl was about crying; she was about sixteen, new, and hey, anyone would have been pushed to the edge dealing with a wacko like this guy. My ears perked up and I asked with as much little boy awe as I could muster, “You were a SEAL?” He was happy to tell me that, yeah, he had been on Seal Team 6 during Operation Eagle Claw and fractured his skull in the crash. I asked what kind of a helicopter he was on, and he told me a Huey. I proceeded to laugh in his face, call him a fucking idiot, and inform him that DEVGRU was formed AFTER Eagle Claw under the oversight of Richard Marcinko in response to the Navy realizing they needed a dedicated counterterrorist force, and that Super Stallions, not Hueys, were used during Eagle Claw due to fuel and capacity. He got real pissed and threatened to whip my ass. Like any self-respecting phony, he was about fifty pounds overweight. I’m pretty strong, I run every day, and I’ve been doing martial arts intensively for a few years (the real fighting kind, not the McDojo variety), so I doubt it would have been any significant achievement to beat him up. But then, a remarkable thing happened. A guy from the back of the line, who told me later he was an OIF Marine (he didn’t tell me anything else or any ridiculous stories, so I’d say he was legit), came in, grabbed the guy by the arm, pulled him out side, and proceeded to rip him new ones across every inch of his body. Score one for the good guys. Well, I went up, made my order, and the girl thanked me a bunch. We talked a bit after, and she gave me her number (she was seriously hot, too). So it was a good day in all kinds of different ways 😀

  37. HS Sophomore

    The one think I’ll regret forever, though, is not asking him if his CO’s name was Phildo Monkress. Goddamnit. Goddamnit to hell.

  38. Valkyrie

    HS – You give me hope for the future! Mighty impressive.

  39. Ex-PH2

    Wow! HSSophomore, you are one impressive scholar AND knight of the realm! Kudos to you, Sir HSS!

    You guys, listen up! HSS not only defended the fair damsel in distress and defeated the dragon. He also got her number. Too smooth for words.

    Damn! You’re good!

    If you see that OIF Marine again, make sure you salute him and tell him I said ‘Thanks!’

  40. A Proud Infidel

    NICE WORK, HSS, +20 COOL POINTS for that!! If we ever get to meet up face to face and you see that Marine, point him out to me, his next shot and a beer will be on me!! You got the girl’s number, too that’s another +5 cool points!!

  41. Hondo

    HS Sophomore: well done, lad.

    In future such situations, if practical get the tool’s name (and a photo if possible). If these guys are looking for attention, with a name and some other info perhaps we can oblige. (smile)

  42. GDContractor

    HSS – it’s a good thing this assclown SEAL poser didn’t go into Popovic’s Subway Sandwich Shop and come uncunted over the way his sandwich was being made. Popovic would have thrown down, no doubt. Need to have plenty of popcorn and thin mints on hand for when that day happens…. and it will.

  43. vietnam war protestor a.k.a. u.s.s. liberty

    @41-Eh, would have done that, except he was just saying he was a SEAL; he wasn’t wearing any gear. So he might have had a plausible defense in saying he never said he was a SEAL. But yeah; I’ll try next time (smile).

  44. HS Sophomore

    Sorry, #43 is me; I forgot to change my username back after having fun with VWP 😀

  45. tm

    HS Sophomore is proof that Don Shipley’s “Tips on how to get really hot chicks” works 😉

  46. Ex-PH2

    Yeah, but, tm, HSS isn’t old enough to drink booze out of any glass yet.

  47. tm

    @Ex-PH2 True, he can’t apply all of the advice yet. But look at what he was able to do with the stuff he can, guided by the wise, steady hands here at TAH.

    HS Sophomore: Seriously, though, good work! Way to crush that phony SEAL bully.

  48. Enigma4you

    Bravo Zulu HSS.

    Max points for the number.

  49. NateM

    Isn’t that what Bill Paxton was in True Lies? Course he was pretending to be a spy. That’s a the next highest trump card in bullshit claims
