Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
 

My favorite quote from build is from when one of our freshman members was watching me bolt our load bearing manipulator support strut onto the robot, and said "Are you sure we can't just use duct tape for that?" It has become a common expression around the team and someone says it just about every day.

A few students working at one of the work benches along with two mentors, one of the students is standing in a not natural looking way, another student says to him
"Why are you standing like that?"
He responds " this is my stance"
I (mentor) say "it's his buffalo stance" all the students look at me confused. I say "look on iTunes"
It has since been downloaded by a few students. Ahh late 80's dance music lol

Programming Student: "So, Dan, you have an interest in dating sexy Thai women?"
Programming Mentor: "I didn't know that was an option."

(One of our programmers was playing minesweeper when he was supposed to be writing comments in the code and the ad that popped up on the side was "Date Sexy Thai Women". Suffice to say, we were all very tired and thought this was hilarious.)
