Amusing Quotes--2005 Edition
Ok, so I know we have one of these every year, and I've decided it's high time this year's began!
Write down the funniest quotes (engineering related or not, yes I've seen the "engineering slogans" thread, this doesn't have to have anything to do with engineering) that your team has had during the season so far! As my team enjoys harassing me, I have some fairly amusing ones •Sean, please make sure they’re not cutting themselves with the hacksaw •“Do you have a band-aid?” “No” “Ok, do you have paper towel and duck tape?” •“I turned in my medical form, now I can cut my finger off” •“Yes guys, aluminum is sharp” •“Is that supposed to cut wood?” “Yeah, I guess it doesn’t cut aluminum” Let's hear what other team's have got! |
Re: Amusing Quotes--2005 Edition
Here is a quote from our programmer (me) after testing autonomous modes on a previous robot.
"Autonomous sort of works", "Ok", "I nearly decorated the parking lot with Reggie 3. Autonomous just sort of goes forever." our field is on a second story floor, the robot was headed towards the door, it has a new dent in it ;). |
Re: Amusing Quotes--2005 Edition
one i love to say about every meeting.

"they be shanken my house yo" -Trent (tetra house incedent) "We're sorry, the light at the end of the tunnel has been turned off due to technical difficulties." - me when I was "discussing" something about the robot... |
Re: Amusing Quotes--2005 Edition
Unfortunately our build season hasn't been very amusing. Usually we keep a quote book because so many funny things happen, but we haven't kept one this year.
On the other hand, here's a couple of incidents who may have been funny at the time but not to anyone who wasn't there. =P *Collin throws foam rubber at Sonya* "DEGRATION!!!" Sonya: Does that hurt your face? Anna: You hurt my face! Also, a couple of my freshmen can fit inside the tetras. That's pretty amusing to watch. |
Re: Amusing Quotes--2005 Edition
One of my team members said this just now, upon entering the room when other team members were playing country music: "What the heck is this crap?" Pretty much his entire life philosophy in one sentence.

Re: Amusing Quotes--2005 Edition
this isn't from 2005 but it has carried on since it was said last year.
"Is this aluminum or metal?" that was asked when looking for sheets to make a panel out of. there is also "make me a sand which" "because gravity hates me" answer to most all of my questions. |

:p Make sure you check out the 2004 page. =) A lot of them still apply to 2005. Our rather strange FIRST family ( :] ) has no problem supplying funny quotes on a daily basis, its just the webmaster (me) forgets them about 5 minutes after they happen. |

"Frigen 12 gauge whatda think" to the freshmen "Can you grab me the metric cresent wrench." "It likes that." after anything is dropped "Good 'nough for govment work" And being that we only have guys on the team there are many sayings that are too crude to put on a public forum. |

Re: Amusing Quotes--2005 Edition
I think the most enjoyable for me was...
I had just designed our chassis in ISO on CAD and we were looking at it while building it... Chino: Um, Zog, I think you drew it wrong. :I grab it and flip it right side up: Me: You're an idiot. That was a good laugh for us all and if you really wanna know about the nicknames... go ahead and ask. |
Re: Amusing Quotes--2005 Edition
those are good so far.. but i've got a brilliant one.
one of my friends who is new to the team was online after i asked him to look up some of the rules for the chairmans award. while scrolling through the manual on the computer, he asked: "What are Woody Flowers?" needless to say i fell out of my chair and almost died. XD its written on the dry erase board in the room where we have most of our meetings as "Danny's Dumb Question of the Day" (we say that in jest lol) ...perhaps i'll post the picture i took of it later. :p there are probably more from my team... i just never seem to be around when the funny stuff happens though! we keep a list of funny things that happen to people, and at the of all of the competitions (usually sometime around late april or may) we have a Team Party (usually a pool party) where the entire team gets together one last time. We have these things called "Who's who?"'s, and the party we all get together and read them, asking who did what. (thats kind of confusing so here is an example of a real one: "Who got a ticket in New York for jumping the subway turnstiles?" of which there were two answers, but i wont mention their names. (it wasnt their fault really... they were carrying a lot of stuff for competition and it couldnt fit through the turnstiles along with them...)) those are always amusting stories to tell and serve as great memorials for all of the fun things that happened while we were together. |
Re: Amusing Quotes--2005 Edition
" :ahh: WHOAH sparks :D "
"was it suppose to do that" "that can't be good" "why does it smell like smoke in here" "not techno again" "check the manual" <<< something a mentor always says *scratches head* "whats that" "OHHHHH!!!!!!!" <<<<< Programmers quote "Foods here" "Hit the DISABLE :ahh: " "don't forget to unplug the program cable :ahh:" "um......did you try turning it on??"

Re: Amusing Quotes--2005 Edition
This one is an old classic form our team:
Good enough for government work someone yelling "FRESHMEN WITH A FILE" 30 seconds later a freshmen walks up with a file "hey it really works" "rat tail files shouldn't be used as a pry bar" programmer after snapping a rat tail file. Mechanical person "You idiot your supposed to chuck it into a drill and use that to make filing go faster" "The arm is programmed now mechanical has to build it to suit the program" A programmer theory that got shot down before he finished saying it.

Re: Amusing Quotes--2005 Edition
A guy walks up to the lead machinist and asks for some oil to make his cut run better. The machinist looks around and finds a small bottle of oil and hands it to the guy. The guy takes it and starts on his cut. Then the machinist turns to me and whispers, "I don't know what that was in there, but he seems to think it works"
Today, in reference to the arm, an engineer said to a student "you really need to get started on making your joints" Everyone was silent for a moment while our eyes glanced around and then we just burst into laughter. Also since Usher Yeah was our team song last year, this year every time someone says "take that" (like while handing off a part to someone) the reply is always "and rewind it back" |

Re: Amusing Quotes--2005 Edition
::controls temptation::
::controls temptation:: ::controls temptation:: ::gives into temptation:: Ai ya... well, here's the (slightly cleaned up from it's last appearance) FIRST quote list I've been keeping since around the 2000 season.
I am so tempted to look through the older threads here and find some more funny ones. Oh, and my personal favorite: "One would also have to wonder if, by admitting that we can't trust his post regarding misinformation, he knew we would all have to then question whether it was the original post that was false, or the post was correct but the original information behind the post was false. Then, of course knowing that if I told him something even accidentally that it might end up on this board, I might tell him that everything I might say in the future would be false. Knowing that, he might want to give you a warning that anything I were to let slip, and he were to pass on, would be suspect. I could use that to ensure that everything I said would not be believed, and therefore not passed on. Or if it were passed on it would automatically be interpreted as misinformation, and everyone would assume the inverse was actually true. But knowing that, I could intentionally tell him misinformation, knowing that it would be interpreted as misinformation by him and inverted, and he would then unintentionally post the truth, which would be interpreted as misinformation and - knowing it was misinformation - the inverse (which was actually the inverted truth) would then be revealed to everyone. But since you now know that is possible, I would never do that. But I could just tell him misinformation, and he wold interpret it as such, and then post the truth, but everyone else would think that is was inverted truth and not believe it but believe the inverse. So then they would actually be believing the truth. But we already know that I would never leak out anything true, and since I know the potential for the above scenario, I would never let it happen, so everything that I would tell him would have to be real information only, which would then be interpreted as misinformation, inverted by him and posted as real information, misinterpreted as misinformation by you and inverted to be believed as real information, but since you know I would never reveal real information it would then be believed to be misinformation and inverted again into actual misinformation and incorrectly believed to be real information. Or not. How do you know that he is really even one of my kids anyway? (just wanted to see if I could make Wetzel's brain explode again)" -Dave Lavery |

"Oh, we're going with the 'W' arm." -Wife of a mentor and Kate "Here's a cresant wrench- oh wait- heres a smaller one." -Kate as she hands the smaller one to Julian. "Thanks." - Julian as he then used the wrench as a hammer. "Emily..." "I was thinking about robots! I swear!" "I think we can take off five pounds from the grabber." -Robert "I don't think it _is_ 5 pounds now..." -Kate 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "We designed it to suck" -A sticker on our vacuum Boeing has its Phantom Works Lockheed Martin has its Skunk Works 1212 has our Lucky-if-it Works "Seton can do better then that.

This robot is perfect." - Matt, as he was still drilling, to which everyone immediately resonded: "Matt!" "You might as well start over now." "You just doomed us." "The problem is the square wheels." - Dr. Hobbs as he watched one of our first attempts "You know, there are things that you can learn from your ancestors." - A mom, commenting on the square wheels. "Yeah well, every now and then you have to test these things." - Kate, defending her square wheels "Oh! It looks like a poor crippled little robot." - Kate, as she watched the robot with one square wheel and one normal wheel. Since the wheels turned at different rates it could only go in a circle, and it went slowly and jerkily. "Close enough for government work." -By almost everyone when it wasn't perfect but working okay. |
