It's been a running gag in our corps. It all started (well, if I remember) when the warning stickers (and the reasoning behind them) were put on the IMP's about the tubes of Honey and containing traces of botulism (actual toxins in the IMP's... I was/may have been affected by it according to my doctors, thankfully I was given preventive drugs/etc) I was hit by the PB theifing. It was all in good humor, you tend to fall for it once, the breakfast seemed to be the normal 'hit' time.
Anyways, I was a Mcpl (are considered 'seniors' at my corps) at the time and was ordered to do so (one of the former RSM's, Chick, or Dan [most likely Dan].) I was a bit hesitant at first, but hey, "I was already hit by it a year or two ago, meh."
It was a tradition in my corps. It stopped the other year when Myles took hold of RSM for a while. It hasn't happened since (even though we have a new RSM.) I think the only FTX traditions that we have left is the hotdog eating contest (current holder is 16) and the group swamp mix (thick sugary goo composed of many juices, I havn't partook in that since I was a Pte... felt like crap after)
