Student A: Why is there a sign on the robot saying that it'll fall apart if we touch it? *Reaches out and pokes it* *Numerous parts of the gearbox fall out* Student B: Because I haven't put the gearbox back together, yet---*notices the destruction* -- I hate you :( While carrying in a half sheet of plywood today: Student A: It sure is windy! Student B+C (Carrying the plywood): We know! This thing's like a giant kite! Student A: .... Then turn it? Student C: No way! This is more fun! After the I had traipsed through our computer lab for the twelfth time, grabbing a part or tool. The backroom of the computer lab is where we keep everything, and the room next door is where we had the robot. Student A (My girlfriend, the only female on the team): Why do you keep coming through here? Me: I have to grab parts and tools. Student A: But.... You're the captain, delegate! Me: I've tried. There's just too many shiney things back there. *Goes into the back and starts looking for things, and gets distracted by the person working on our wireless* Student A: Where'd you go? Student B is looking for you! Me: Uhm.... Sorry. Shiney..... And as everyone else says; there's more, I just don't remember it! |
