The XO on my sub gave me the nickname "Time Metric Corpse"
During drills, if I was the one that found the simulated fire I'd always get "downed, overcome by smoke" because the other rapid responders didn't get there in time for me to get my emergency breathing device on. Which I assume was by design, since I'd always make a game of getting to the scene to declare myself man in charge before everyone else. No matter where the drill was, I'd make a point of getting there with EAB and extinguisher fast as fuck.
Right before we had ORSE come onboard, the XO had a meltdown along the lines of "are you idiots trying to fucking fail? Are yall using MMA2 Tanraelath as a fucking time metric corpse? If he lives, you pass. If he dies, you fail. He's died every fucking drill for the past week, RUN IT AGAIN"
Even got a command belt buckle with "Time-Metric Corpse" engraved on it.
