Description: In rare behind-the-scenes clip of a sound test, famed director Alfred Hitchcock is heard to use archaic form of TWSS. After teasing actress for being “a bad woman,” in reaction to which she giggles and turns away, subject (Hitchcock) insists that she turn to face the camera and stand in her place, otherwise, he says, “it will not come out right, as the girl said to the soldier.” Based on historic records, “as the girl said to the soldier” is archaic form of TWSS, although it is unclear if it was ever truncated (ATGSTTS). To date, this is earliest known recording of a TWSS moment. FILE UNDER: Historical TWSS, Archaic TWSS, Military TWSS.

That’s what Nelson Mandela said?
I bet he storyboarded that joke the night before.
Ooh! I get it!
“I say, this spotted dick leaves the most pleasant taste in my mouth!”
“As the girl said to the soldier.”
“Gah! You got me again, old chap.”
And scene.
…”And lorry”
I smell a party game!
“Your bayonet is trapped in the crinoline of my bustle! Please be gentle in extracting it, good sir.”

Does anybody have some spare upvotes I could borrow for this?
There are also subsets for each of the armed forces; here is a classic “As The Girl Said To The Member of the Royal Air Force” from Ascension Island Laffs:
WELL-WISHER: “Do your duty and try to keep your plane aloft when it’s time to invade.”
WIT: “ATGSTTMOTRAF.”
Alfred Hitchcock was very fond of MacGuffins.
Ha ha, gross, Slang Dictionary From 1904:
Hitchock’s love for TWSS jokes was paralleled only by his love for boobies

Hey, Alfred, her eyes are “up there”!
From now on, I expect to see many more ATGSTTS jokes.
If you look closely, Hitchcock is an extra in every episode of The Office ever filmed.
In England they call TWSS As the vicar said to the actress.
In Chinatown they call TWSS As the infant said to the Polanski
In Soviet Russia they call TWSS “As the soldier said to you!”
You mean, “as the lorry said to the lorry.”
Norman: “Well, a son is a poor substitute for a lover.”

Alfred Hitchcock is so weird.
So is Alrfred Hitchcock.
Yeah, but I was talking about Alfred Hitchcock obviously.
What about Alf Red Hitchcock, the great Malmution film director
not so weird

Vertigo used to be my favorite Hitchcock movie.
Now it’s Interrogating An Actress About Her Sexual Activity and Calling Her a Bad Woman During a Soundcheck?
Hitchcock had mad game.
Can Gabe retroactively include Alfred Hitchcock in his “Best People of the Year” dealy at the end of 2010? Because I think this earns it.
That chick’s blushing and giggling about ATGSTTS shit; THAT MAN HAS “COCK” RIGHT IN HIS NAME
