Ok just thought this was funny ... walking through HD today I see a strange looking hammer thing and stroll over to investigate. Upon investigation I find out this thing is called a Fubar .... I found myself laughing aloud because I always use the term FUBAR as some thing being F***ed Up Beyond All Recognition ... upon futher investigation they use this term as being short for Functional Utility Bar ... never the less it was a good laugh and I think who ever named this should get a pat on the back :)

Kenn,
I’ve always heard that to mean “…Beyond All Repair”, but either way, a bar to take something apart definitely fits the task at hand.

Hey Kenn
The term was used in the ER and in the field for some unfortunate accident victums:eek:
