Pool noodle

pool noodle is a melee item in item asylum. It is a randomly-colored pool noodle made of foam. 
==Functionality==
pool noodle is physically simulated, and the sections of the noodle have mass. Swinging the pool noodle deals 18.5 damage to anyone struck by it, ragdolling them, and applying a small amount of knockback. Players struck by the noodle will let out a cry of pain. pool noodle has approximately a 1 second cooldown between swings.
If pool noodle is obtained in a team-based mode like TDM, the color of the pool noodle will inherit the team's corresponding color.
==Tips==
*pool noodle is an inconsistent weapon due to its physically simulated nature. Due to it having mass, it can be used to cause the wielder to make strange or glitchy movements. 
*Although pool noodle has acceptable damage, its swing cooldown can make it challenging to do so.
*It is possible to stunlock players with the pool noodle more effectively than items like belt, which has much stronger knockback.
*The small amount of knockback can be used for fall-out kills, though the inconsistent and glitchy nature of the physics also means that the wielder stands a risk of being knocked out of the map by their own hand.
