Mike: can we put a flamethrower on the robot?

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
 

I had to write a page for the website and im not the best writer so i asked one of my friends on the newsletter to help me. He said:

"I cant think about (mentor commonly known as the team mom) right now, My thoughts are filled with (college mentor who used to be on the team)."

Everyone thought it was funny so we wrote it on the white board and when the second mentor saw this he said to him (not exactly but pretty close)

"What do i fill your head with Michael?"

Everyone laughed.

from my dad to me
"See it's bad being a part of electrical, the mechanical guys leave you a minute to get things done then blame you for any failures."

or from a Komar my freshman year.
"I've calculated and out of the entire build season programing and electrical only work for fifteen minutes every hour mechanical works, but without us the robot would be a heap of metal"
it's funny because it true.

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
 

maybe so, but you have to remember, without mechanical, the robot would be a pile of electronics and some code :p

Referring to wire:
x-"I'm not going to thread it through all the wire until I know if it works."
y-"No, if it works, then we'll have to unplug it again."
x-"But if it doesn't work, I don't want to have to unplug it again."
y-"But you're the one doing it, so that probably means it will work."

Being, x, I have learned that a) it is bad practice to put the digital sidecar right below the motors, and b) my wiring jobs can occasionally be terrible.

Me: Mike did you read the rule book?
Mike: Yes
Me: well you need to spend a few more hours digesting the rulebook because (insert one of the many rules he suggested breaking here) is against the rules.
