The only people who don't know what Marsellus Wallace meant are a handful of fucking melonheads that inhabit GD. Nobody in their right fucking mind thought he was talking about a group of guys who were going to beat Mr. Hillbilly Rapist with god damn pipes

The term pipe hitter goes back to the '20s and '30s as a reference to a mob enforcer. I've heard this term by some really old "goodfellas". I guarantee they never saw pulp fiction. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:
Quoted: Go ahead and educate us, tell us your version. Pipe Hitter Towards the end of the 19th century, dope was being used to refer to illicit drugs, specifically opiates, because of the viscous qualities of opium that has been prepared for smoking. This sense appears in a 2 May 1888 headline in the Los Angeles Times (it’s too bad they don’t write headlines like this one anymore): “Dope" Fiends. Police Officers Raid A Notorious Den.

So, you refer to journalists from the 1800’s for the defacto definition for a phrase?
Haha cool man. It means whatever you want it to mean. I’m sure that’s what they were referring to. |

It's Walter Mitty gear for poser tough guys. A touch of military-worship, a dash of biker badass and a full-sleeve tattoo rolled together into a T-shirt company.

It's a lifestyle brand, appealing to consumers that use branding as a form of self expression and identity. Not that hard to understand. See Salt Life. Pipe Hitters Union (PHU) was founded in 2004 by a small group of special operations combat veterans that shared a common belief in the unity of cause, the willingness to face extreme obstacles head on and the absolute refusal to backdown in the face of adversity. Since then, the message has spread to like minded individuals from all professions and walks of life. Whether military, law enforcement or civilian, Pipe Hitters throughout the world are pushing their limits daily and making their mark.
What began as a brotherhood born from conflict has evolved into a commitment to continue to live by the values we hold dear, regardless of what stands in our way. The battlefield may change but our resolve to push forward remains the same. Our brand is a mark of distinction and a call for others to join us. PHU was born in the spirit of moving together in one direction through the storms of life, no matter how they present themselves. This is a call to embrace turmoil. This a call to thrive in adversity. This is a call to join the Union. This is a call to smoke some crack. |

Flag: You notice these are criminals? They're psychotic antisocial freaks. It makes no sense. Let me hit the Tier One units and I'll build you a team of pipe hitters who'll do anything you can dream up. I mean, you need real soldiers. Not these scumbags.
The term was used in suicide squad by colonial Flag. I’m not saying that is where it originated from. Just that the term has made it to a mainstream movie as a military term. |

I just checked out the PHU Instagram. Jacked, inked bearded dudes in tight tshirts and short haired women Crossfitters with ink.
Too cliche. But then again, so is every other gun related company these days. |

Someone watched Pulp Fiction and thought "pipe hitting" meant being a bad ass, rather than hitting the crack pipe. Now a bunch of retards are proudly referring to themselves as "pipe hitters". View Quote I chalk it up to youngsters who missed the crack epidemic and early gangster rap. |

Why would he call stinky, weak, shivering crackheads who would squeal for a nickle when he has hit squads like Jules and Vincent and cleanup men like Mr Wolf? Not crackheads. View Quote Wallace was basically saying he would feed him to the zombies. If you grew up in the late 80's there was only one definition of a pipe hitter and that was a crack head. |

In this instance the same words are not the same term. I listed a possible origin of the word as referenced to "tough guys". The mob used union muscle including pipe fitters (who most likely brought the pipes) to take care of business. This is straight from the mouths of experienced people. A tit can be a bird or a breast, same word, different origin. The bird came first, the slang for the breast was used much later with no relation or knowledge of the original term.
