Chief Delphi - "Quotes" that were said during build season

well this was at a competition but a judge was talking to a girl and asked her what programing language we used she had no idea and replied with "English" and just walked away :) it was pretty funny

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

"I think the best strategy this year would be to paint somebody silver, put a safety light on his head, and hope he doesn't have to play defense."

"Sir, I'm going to have to ask you to put the duck away, as it is very detrimental to our work ethic."

"Is it necessary to continually blast 'Sexy And I Know It' on repeat throughout every meeting?"

"Gentlemen, I am very proud to say that, for the first time in Team 540 history, our robot is not obese. This means we will not have to cheese the electrical board."

Student 1: "Pass me the Dikes"
Student 2: "Dikes is such a derogatory term. We should call them 'Lesbians'."

From that day forth, they were called "Lesbians" by everyone on the team.

Student 1: Did you save?
Student 2: No, why?
(Computer shuts down)
Student 2: What, NOOOOO. 2 Hours of work for nothing!!!
Student 1: 6:01, Computers always shut down. HAHAHAHA.

(District 11 has an automatic shutdown time set for 6:01 every day. No notification, no cancel button. REAL smart.):mad:

Is it bad that my team said this daily?

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

The boys on my team like to make lube jokes a lot...
"Safety FIRST! Use non-toxic plant based lube!"
"Don't touch me with that string! Do know how much lube I put on that thing?"

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

(after teaching one of the electrical guys the basics of how to program in labview (he really wanted to learn))...

Me - "Ok, do you think you can make a program to add two things together?"
Student X - "Sure, it seems simple enough"
Me - "Well you do that, and I'll make sure I didn't miss anything important from the rest of the programmers"
*Walks away for 5 seconds*
Student X - "Umm... labview isn't responding."
Me - "Let me see that."
*Looks at laptop screen*
Me - "...You crashed labview. I gave you the simplest task EVER and you crashed labview. You were never meant to be a programmer. Go back to electrical."

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

I plan on printing this quote by Douglas Adams (tHGttG: Mostly Harmless) and posting it in our pits at next weekend's competition:

"The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to get at or repair."

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

This past weekend my team had our first competition of the season and the pit crew was in the pits and we were talking about a bunch of things we could do to our robot...here were a few ideas that got thrown around...
-confetti cannon, during the matches we shoot confetti and drive around in circles (but said confetti goes poof in thin air so as not to break the rule of leaving things on the ground that fall off the robot)::rtm::

-a flag that comes out of our robot at the beginning of each match with #notlast on it (#notlast has been a thing circulating through the team):p

-putting sparkles on our feeder lexan (which actually happened)

Another thing our team did was on the Thursday for pit setup someone from another team was wondering where Jefferson High School was (the city where it was not the team) and my team members and I all raised our hands...woops

Vice grips are off-screen workers making porno movies. Maybe sometimes with dykes. :yikes: ;)
