Origin of the Hammertime
Hammertime was created during a game of Silent Football during LAN.05.2.
During this game, MC Hammer's "Can't Touch This" was being played from a Kunkel balcony. The universe was dancing happily. Suddenly, horrror of unspeakable horrors, somebody wanted to know what time it was! They raised their hand and asked, "Mr. Dictator, what is the current Hammertime?" to which Shea Levy replied, "It is the Hammertime." To which the ever-curious player replied, "What is the current hammertime?" A certain Dr. Strangelove or: Etymologies SUCKS was then called on and said, "Mr. Dictator, the current Hammertime is X:YZ." The term Hammertime was used repeatedly to ask this question, and the same player always had the answer. That player then requested "Mr. Dictator I motion that the official time zone of the Universe be the Hammertime!" This motion was granted and has been enstated ever since.
