Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
 
  • "Have Sal spit-weld it!"--about one of our mentors, who can do absolutely anything, including solvent weld any substance with his spit
  • "Well, he can do SalTastic CADing, which is done entirely in your head, or on a piece of cardboard."--about Sal's son Nick, and why he doesn't need to learn Inventor
  • "It's SNC. Sal Numeric Cutting. It's done with a Jigsaw and is based on SalTastic CAD files."--more on Sal (he's a beast isn't he?)
  • "It's crazy inches."--when we can't get a precise measurement of a roughcut part to draw it.
  • "Is that KevinCAD?"--one of the end effectors kids CADing in Paint.
  • "I know, let's take out the ball bearings to save weight! Oh wait, we tried that already..."--trying to make weight the day after we cracked open the turntable on our turret
  • "Did you teach it to fly yet?"--my constant question to a certain member of the team
  • "This is just like Vex...with a gun"--me to Mike the day the challenge is released (we were simultaneously captaining the Vex team)
  • "Where's the syntax??? I need the syntax!!!"--one of our programers asking for soda (not syntax) at midnight after coding for way too many hours straight.
I will think of more!!!

So very true. The hierarchy of screws is as follows:
Allen/Hex
Bolt Head
Phillips
Torx (not for suckiness, just for uncommononity)[/
Those weird screws they use on Nintendo systems to stop modders
The lowly flathead, which can in no way be gripped by a driver of any kind.

Ed, I honestly love you. Brings back alot of good moments.

"I use saftey glasses, I just take them off when I'm cutting and sh** like that"

"If you're not bleeding, you're not on drive train."

Max Thrun got a nosebleed coding autonomous mode for serveral hours straight before we shipped the robot.

"TOO MUCH CODE! HIS HEAD EXPLODED".

I then held a tissue up to Max's nose while he finished the rest of the program.

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
 
Team 95's top quote was "Do you think that is going to work?" while people are building various subsystems of the robot ("No, we're building this just to see it fail..."). After a while a became a running joke, and it is even written on the bot now.

That, and we have a traditional of designating the "button boy" (the person pushing the programming button) and the "door boy" (the person who goes downstairs and answers the door to the clubhouse after-hours). Either needing the program button pushed (which, in a feat of mechanical design, was very well buried in the final bot, along with the programming and tether ports) or needing the door opened would be accompanied by a loud scream of "BUTTON BOY!!!!" or "DOOR BOY!!!". Oddly, both positions were sought-after.

Oh, and I can't forget the various and sundry promises that, unlike previous years, that this year we actually will get a finished robot for the programmers to work with before ship date. Well, at least this year we actually had two weeks with the drive train to try out...

I don't need sleep, just more Mountain Dew. Oh, and a muffin.
Said by the mechanical team after working on the bot for nearly two days straight before ship.

Most of my favorites were said online.

"oh well i think i will have to start going to church again"
-this year's president

[14:11] guitdude182: oh man
[14:11] guitdude182: im watching galileo match videos
[14:12] Cluskum35: ?
[14:12] Cluskum35: Galileo's dead, Yon
[14:12] Cluskum35: And even if he were alive, he wouldn't be your friend

[20:23] Cluskum35: Cool
[20:23] tmbg37: heh, what do you mean, cool?
[20:24] Cluskum35: That's a cool idea
[20:24] tmbg37: oh, i thought you meant that it was a crappy idea
[20:25] Cluskum35: Yes, that's exactly what I meant when I said "cool"
[20:26] tmbg37: cool

[21:33] David: i have something to ask your opinion on
[21:33] Cluskum35: Sure
[21:35] David: it's this idea
[21:35] David: as a robotics fundraiser
[21:35] Cluskum35: Okay
[21:35] David: to sell calendars
[21:35] David: calendars with robotics team members on them
[21:36] David: i hesitate to call them pinups
[21:36] David: but if that helps get the idea across... :ahh:

(At competition)
E: Why aren't you guys getting your safety inspection?
Me: We're underweight.
E: So?
Me: So we're adding more stuff.

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
 
this wasn't exactly said during the build season, but it is still funny. i was asked to describe our robot by a person that wouldn't understand the more complex words so i said that it basically sucks and blows balls.-this was before the Pittsburgh regionals. then at the Chesapeake regional, i said, "i'm going out with Meshach." meaning i was going to go to the stands when Meshach left the pit, but apparently the guys on the team did not see it that way. now my best friend-our coach-pointed out to me that our robot is named after a guy and when i put that together with what i said at Chesapeake and how i had described the robot, i screamed, "You mean i am going out with a GAY ROBOT!"

So that guy Meshach is really a robot. And you're his boyfriend, so that makes you...a gay robot! (anyone who's seen Red V. Blue should get this)

OK... it was not during the build season, but rather on the bus as we travelled through Buffalo, New York:
