Mr. Neun - "let's see here Jay. No use of duct tape... check"
Mr. Neun - "all the electronics and pneumatics are good... Check"
Mr. Neun - "Hmm., the only problem is your use of radioactive materials. Hold on, I know who you are Jay. You started that JVN is a dweeb thread on Chief Delphi. I guess I can let this hazerdous materials thing slide..."
Jay - Wow, thanks Mr. Neun!"
Mr. Neun - No problem, (writing on pad) 'inspection passed.' "

"Darnit, I really wanted to be a Ref, not an Inspector... I don't understand why they thought my being near the playing field might interfere with the cameras seeking the vision tetras... It's not like the lights bounce off my head or anything..."

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #55
 
Mr. Neun walks up to team 47's pit to inspect their robot...

Pit crew members: This time we are ready Mr. Neun.

Mr. Neun: You know there is a easy way to pass this inspection right?

Pit crew members: What's that?

Mr. Neun: Make fun of JVN's bald head and compliment to me about my nice hair.

Ben Lauer 25-07-2005 13:46

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #55
 
Neun - So your saying that chainsaw is non-functional decoration?
Student - Yes, The chainsaw doesn't work because we had to use the spark plugs in our lawn mower.
Neun - Well...I still can't pass you because you have a lawn mower and that contains "sharps" that could damage the carpet.
Student - Don't look at it as "damage" but as maintenance.
Neun - Oh...

Team Member: here comes Neun! take cover! his head is blinding!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #55
 
OK... for the last time, yes, my name tag does say "John Neun" and I am JVN's father. No, I'm not going to introduce my son to you, as he is probably too busy signing autographs or designing martini-pouring Vex robots. Let's drop the JVN stuff and get to this inspection.

John: Dont you dare take a picture of me! I will fail your bot!

Over heard at the 2034 FIRST Competition

" *Cough, cough* Alright guys…My name is John V. Neun.
Cough. Yes, I'm the real one.
I’m here to inspect your robot.

Ok... where are your calculations for maximum motor load.
I want to see the current draw vs. load torque diagrams.
Let me see your calculation for gearbox load.
Did you calculate the motor current draw and robot velocity over time?

Well sonny, I’m waiting…..

*Silence*

Sigh, Just as I thought.

You young JVN-Want-A-Be have it made these days.
When I was young, I build my own gearbox with my own two hands.
I was the best, I tell you, I was the best….

None of these silly prefabricated perpetual engines, virtual transmissions, and ionized-geometry sensors were available in the good old days. They’re for wimps. " ;)

I wonder if you can use John Neun's head to concentrate a beam of light and blind the other alliance....hmmm.....

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #55
 
Mr. Neun: ALRIGHT SPREAD 'EM!
Student: Er, Mr. Neun sir, it's a robot...with no legs..
Mr. Neun: I know. I just always wanted to say that.
Student: *whispers to JVN* Your dad's weeeeird...
Mr. Neun: ONE MORE COMMENT LIKE THAT AND I'LL FAIL YOUR INSPECTION.
Student: ...
Mr. Neun: Exactly.

Bcahn836 25-07-2005 19:24

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #55
 
According to NASA's extensive calculations it has been determined that John will be completely bald by the end of the 2006 season due to high stress levels from constant mockery from the chiefdelphi gang.

In National Geographic:
"This here is the rare, silver-back gorilla. As rare as it is with hair, it is even rarer without. You, reader, are one SPECIAL person, as you will never see another in your life."

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #55
 
In the neverending battle of supremacy between father and son, John Neun the Elder can rest assured he will win one key battle, for he, at his advanced age, STILL has at least some hair on his head. His son will not be as fortunate.

Neun: mwap mwap mwap mwap.
Student: but it's supposed to be shiny and reflecty and smooth and hairless
Neun: MWAP MWAP MWAP!
Student: .... no sir i wasn't talking about your head ... yes sir... i really was talking about my robot sir...
Neun: mwap mwap mwap....
Student: it's okay sir... your son will keep you company

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #55
 
Mr. John Neun looks down in disappointment at his new Robot Inspector's task. Mr. Neun was serving as Field Reset, until FIRST had figured out that his glare was the cause of their recalibrating the cameras every match.

Neun: You say something like that one more time and im going to fail you! you dont want that right?
Student: Is it my falt your head shines light on the robot
Neun: Have fun failing!

Student:AAAAHHH Its so Bright
JN:Yes, its a safety feature. Like a lighthouse of sorts.

[N/a]This was at nyc... i noticed quite a few nyc teams posting in response lol

Meredith343MiM 26-07-2005 23:08

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #55
 
What Mr. John Neun never told anyone about his inspections- he didn't pass everyone because he felt nice, or their robots were in order... nope... he passed them since he had no idea what the papers said because of the apparant glare. :rolleyes:

...and about that highly polished dome protecting your FRC...
I can't see anything in the rules to dis-allow it....hmmm... And, for some reason <shakes head> it seems so oddly familiar!

Daniel Brim 28-07-2005 21:04

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #55
 
As an extra safety feature, NYC pit administration was handing out tinted safety glasses to all competitors.

[not an entry]

I must say that collectively, this week's entries have been the funniest I've ever read for one contest, I think. Mine pales in comparison to some of your truly devilish concoctions. Bravo.

The name "Neun" just brings out the best (or worst??) in public ridicule, I guess.

Clerk: "Attention customers! John Neun wigs now on sale! Complete your JVN set with the elder one!"
Me: "Mom I so need that!"
Clerk:" your total is $2.29 sir"
Me: "Isn't that wierd!"

Student to fellow team-mate: I thought they got rid of the rotating dome lights after 2002.
Mr. Neun: What are you looking at?!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #55
 
Look, I don't care what you say. Covering your robot with Rogaine will NOT get you extra brownie points with the judges!
