Favorite Robotics Quotes 2004
I know that there have been threads like this in years past, but since last time I checked some of those, they were in the triple digits pages, I thought I would start one for just 2004 robotics quotes (I'm sure there'll be plenty!) I'll start off
From Dane, president of the HOT Alumni Association: "-Gas Money to go to GM for 3 weeks......... $100 -Time spent away from friend and family to build a robot............................................. ..........3 weeks - Money spent on the robot..........................$750 - Looks on the kids faces when winning an award and making it to semifinals............................PRICELESS" |

One of our guys, Dave, got hit in the head at Chesapeak when our robot ran off the cart. He went to the hospital and got 6 staples and is fine now (and was back later that day and the next), but durring the final ceremony the guy from the naval base said: "I know your heads probably hurt by now..."
Dave said "You dont know the half of it!" |
Re: Favorite Robotics Quotes 2004
We had these platforms that went over a vehicle lift and they weren’t very strong. One of our mentors stepped in a spot that he was not supposed to step on because it was so weak. We told him "Brian, you’re not supposed to walk there." He quickly replied...
"I'm a FREAKIN' mentor, I can walk on FREAKIN' water." |

The 2004 FIRST Robotics Competition will always boil down to one quote in my mind:

Re: Favorite Robotics Quotes 2004
When Sam, our webmaster, was building this year's website, he was polling the entire team for catchy phrases to include on the main page. So this guy named Sean, who now happens to be our human player, suggested the phrase "No geeks were harmed in the making of this website". Immediately, and I mean like 2 or 3 seconds, after saying that, Sean leaned back in his chair and crashed onto the floor. Man that was funny stuff. Unfortunately, we didn't end up using his suggestion.

Re: Favorite Robotics Quotes 2004
We had 3 good quotes...all somehow applying to programming...
"It's all in the programming" "Our robot is a BIT overweight" "I have no faith in our program" -- this one was actually a fraudian slip from one of our mentors...he ended up being right, in the end. |
Re: Favorite Robotics Quotes 2004
Well, I'd have to say that one of my favorite quotes this season would be either:
"Blame Tom!"-Everyone on Team#66 during bulid season. or "Maybe thatwasn't the best idea."-Me watching a qualifying match at GLR. |

Re: Favorite Robotics Quotes 2004
Our best quote would had to have come from while we were working on programming in our pit. We were testing our X2 ball grabbing arm, when it unexpectedly flew out. Our lead mechanic happened to be standing in front of it, eating a Boston Cream doughnut, which the arm caught and threw across the pit. There was chocolate frosting and cream filling everywhere, on the arm, on the tool chest, and for some reason, there was a huge amount on a can of WD 40. Everyone stared in shock for a moment, wondering if he was hurt, while he just stared at his hand. "My doughnut!" was all he could manage to say, and everyone just burst out laughing.

Re: Favorite Robotics Quotes 2004
One of our team members recorded a whole bunch of quotes from this season, but the only one that comes to mind right now (besides a couple from our team leader involving her kidneys) was from one of our alumni: "I'm a safe driver! Look! I'll even wear my safety glasses!" Too bad I didn't write down any of the quotes from when a few of us were bouncing off the walls...

My team's advisor thinks this is the funniest thing said in our team:
"Why drink Pepsi when you can program and drink Pepsi?" - Me |

Re: Favorite Robotics Quotes 2004
One of the funniest quotes at the time of UCF this year was said by Mr. Griffith after one of my team's matches, in which our aliance was tipped and rammed. Every one thought for sure it was a penelty. But the judges said it wasn't. We all respected this call and went back to the pits. When I over hear Mr. Griffith and an Engineer whom I can't recall discussing the match. Well soon I hear Mr. Griffth say: "Well you know, I'm not one to argue with the Empire." I was drinking a Dr. Pepper at the time, and I nearly spit it up I was laughing so hard. :D
