"We should use fans"

This became a running gag throughout the entire season.

One of our lead builders spoke through an awkwardly shaped PVC pipe and sounded like Bane from Batman. " I was born of the pyramid. Molded by it."

"This is why we can't have nice things"

One hour before we had to bag and tag:
"Well, looks like the prototype finally works."
Scariest thing I had heard all season.

A few hours before bag; that time when you just don't care about it being right anymore.

"If it fits, it ships"

"So when are we adding that photon cannon?"

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
 

The students were ribbing another student about having a girl friend and I said that unless the girl was in the KOP, it wasn't allowed :D

While telling freshmen how bag and tag works:
"Me: If that bag gets messed with, we could get dq'd. So if any of you touch it, I promise, I will beat you.
Freshmen: terrified looks
Head Mentor: (cracking up un the back if the room) the robot has a special bubble. Stay out of it. "

During the late hours of a build night:
"I like turtles"

"Bro, are you even a riveter?"

There are probably hundreds from 4269's build season, but I have some of my personal favorites here:

• "This is NOT the Pinewood Derby!"
• "Is that a robot? Niiice!"
• "Just use some duct tape..."
• "Oops!"
• "Blame it on the freshman!"
• "Mesure once, cut twice!"
• "If you screw up, you can always use a board stretcher!"
• "Where does the flux capacitor go?"

More to follow!

Programmer: "Why isn't the robot turning on?"
Mentor: "Well did you plug the battery in?"
Programmer: "Well there you go, that's why I'm not on pit crew. Just give me
a bunch of 1's and 0's and I'll figure it out."
Me: "Uhhh it's either plugged in or it isn't."

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
 

It could be plugged in backwards.
