One of the parents of a team member walk in '________ your mom's/dad's here!!!"

This was then repeated by everyone in the room untill we got bored or they other person said something.

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
 

"Well, it would be hard to make it bigger and heavier."
*Shouts from the other room* "CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!"

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
 

Not quite the build season anymore, but I just had to post this. For post-season, we are attaching hooks to our bot (named Kitten, mind you). So one member decides to call the robot a hooker. Eternity says this to our mentor:

"Our hooker is ramming the pyramid!"

Now the robot cart is the Pimpmobile, and the joke just keeps going.

I used this quote at our banquet.
“Dreams are just visions of the future. But dreams will only stay dreams if you don’t put the effort into making them reality. Only then can you say you're living the dream.”- Safiq/ MC-SQUID

"So... what does publicity actually do?". "Put glitters on stuff and beg for a pink robot"

So I'm a freshman (or rather...used to be now :ahh: ) and I was the only one who wired the chassis this year...mind you before I joined FIRST I'd never even attempted to wire something. So anyway...after I had finished wiring the chassis everyone else was at dinner so I walk into the conference room sit down and stare at one of my mentors until this convo occured:

Amanda (mentor): What?
Me: I hate you
A: Why?
Me: I just finished wiring the chassis.
A: Congrats! You didn't blow up anything did you..?
Olivia (freshman programmer on our team): I was surprised she didn't walk in here on fire or with a missing limb.
Me: I blew up the cRIO (jokingly...but they didn't know that :cool: )
A: WHAT?! MEGAN WHAT THE **** I TOLD YOU NOT TO PLUG ANYTHING INTOT HE cRIO TILL I GOT BACK.
Me: (smiles and looks up at her) I know. I didn't. I just felt like getting back at you for giving me a heart attack when you made me wire the entire chassis by myself. #loveya
Olivia: And this is why we don't trust her with programming...

Also:

"Walk up in the pit like what up I got a big bot."

"Megan get me the tiny screw drivers."
"They're called voodoodoo killers"
"What??"
"You know...voodoo dolls? People stab them with little needles? That's what they look like...and I kinda...well...yeah I mispronounced voodoo so it came out voodoodoo killers instead..."

"Jocelyn where the hell did you put the Bang Bang??" (our rubber ended hammar)

"I like big bots and I can't deny. Those other teams just can't deny. When my bot walks in with an ity bity frame--Kayla help I don't know the rest of it."

So this year I was assigned to do the bumpers (cruel little hell raisers that they are...I love em :eek: ) Anyway, I finished them in 3 days so everyone on the team decided that I was the Goddess of Bumpers.

"Hey yo Goddess get over here we can't find the bumper pins."
"Her name's Megan jack#!@"
"No her names Sharpie Junior!"
(I give them the pins and as I'm walking back to the kitchen I hear)
"Okay guys look, everyone knows her names Ginger Bumper Master 2.0 DUH" (GBM for short)

You realize, of course, that you have to finish the lyrics to that parody now.

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
 

Oh my team finished it, I just don't have the lyrics with me xD I don't know if we were planning on making a video or not...

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
 

My favorite moment of the season was when one of ours programmers was having a difficult time with a 2-D drawing and I said:
"Hang on, I'll draw it for you in SolidWorks."
"Pft. You can't draw a line in SolidWorks!"

I quite literally fell off of my chair and rolled around on the floor for few minutes in a fit of laughter. Eventually I stood up and said:
"Of course you can. How do think I've been working on the robot?"
"Well, maybe you can, but I have no idea what's going on there."

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
 

speaking of pimpmobiles...
we had a piece of plexiglass(lexan) which a student had drawn fake abs onto. Our team is big on recycling, so we used it for a prototype conveyor. thus it was, and now the final version is, dubbed the pimpveyorbelt.
Cut to later in build season. we are fixing up our gurney to carry this years drive system, and we attach some LEDs to our cart. they are declared "underlights" and are described as "incredibly swaggy". We then decided that our cart was called the pimpmobile.

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
 

"Get me some hose clamps! I NEED TO CLAMP THE HOS.
(insert pimpveyor joke here)"
every time we used hose clamps...
