Get the Kirk Hammett mug.One kick ass guitarist. May not be the best, but hawaii may not be the best holiday spot either. Doesn't mean it doesn't kick ass though. Joined Metallica in 1983 after Dave Mustaine was kicked out. The least whiney and monkey-like of four members.

Get the Harmeet mug.The full phrase is "Stop! Hammertime!" but I'm a lousy conformist, so I put it here. It is by far the most awesome phrase ever. You could make Slimer from Ghostbusters say it and it would still make sense. Its inventor was nothing short of genius as well.
