Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...

you go to pit admin and ask them for a flux capacitor, and they send you to team 1730.

After the first day of the Wisconsin regional, Pit admin would just say, "Have you asked 1730 for it yet? They have everything."

(Thank you for all the tools btw ^_^)

-You're still on the "build season diet," even though build ended over a month ago
-You just realize that your XM radio unit says "Delphi" on it, and your first thoughts are "CD...wait, why am I not on CD?"
-You have a CD quote in your signature on your team's fourms

Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...

Caitlin, you've got it really bad. It's only your first year.

Then again, I had the second one from my dad back in 1999 or so... and I was hanging around the team wondering when I could join the year before.

Which one takes longer for an official ruling? Therefore, which one makes more sense to use?
