Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

In Norview's first year, the team came into the possession of a mallet with a yellow plastic end and a pink eraser-like rubber end. No one remembers exactly when, but John, the mechanical leader at the time, took a pink marker and wrote "DOOM HAMMER" on the handle. Despite three years of misuse by hammering things meant for a hammer, not a mallet, it still remains a staple in the shop. Every now and then, like during the FTC season, the following exchange (or something close enough) takes place.

1: Hold on, I have to pound this collar onto the axle.
2: Okay
1: Hey, where'd doom hammer go?
2: It poofed!
1: Great. I hope it poofs back this time.
2: Wait. Dude, its on the pegboard.
1: WHEN DID THAT GET THERE?!

I joined FIRST and stuck with it. It was nice enough to return the favor.
